It has been recently shown that radical-ion pairs and their reactions are a paradigm biological system manifesting non-trivial quantum effects, so far invisible due to the phenomenological description of radical-ion-pair reactions used until now. We here use the quantum-mechanically consistent master equation describing magnetic-sensitive radical-ion-pair reactions to explain experimental data ...

Methods for separation of ions by ion-exchange, ion-pair, and zwitterion ion chromatography share at least one common thread--the induced formation of a cation-anion pair in the stationary phase. Selectivity can be defined as the relative ability of sample ions to form such a pair. Examples are given in anion-exchange chromatography to show the effect of variations in the geometry, bulkiness an...

In recent years, ionic liquids have been used in pharmaceutical processes. Therefore, having a deep insight into the ion association behavior of ionic liquids in the presence of a drug is of particular importance. So, in this work, the molar conductivities of the ionic liquids, 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide, [CnMIm]Br (n = 4, 6 and 8) in various concentrations of aspirin (ASA) ...

a simple and sensitive extraction-spectrophotometric method for rapid and accurate determination of benzocaine in pure and dosage forms was developed. benzocaine was effectively extracted as a 1:1 ion pair complex with dicyclohexyl-18-crown-6 and calmagite in acidic media into chloroform, followed by spectrophotometric determination at 486 nm. molar absorptivity of the ternary complex at this w...

The thermodynamic quantities of dissociation contact and solvent-separated ion pairs into ions, conversion HBr ionogen in n-alcohols from methyl to n-octyl have been calculated by the procedure we set forth earlier for HCl – n-alcohol systems same solvents at 278.15–328.15 K. following regularities were established this work: a) positive values ΔdisGº increase with increasing temperature, numbe...

we describe a rapid, simple, and reliable procedure for routine isolation of mycobacterium leprae dna from slit-skin swab specimens. this one-step dna extraction method is based on the utilization of chelexr 100, a chelating ion exchange resin. slit-skin swab specimens from seven untreated leprosy patients at baba baghi leprosy hospital in iran were processed by this procedure. the polymerase c...

The cobaltabisdicarbollide anion is used as a new material able to generate an ion-pair complex used for PVC membrane ion selective electrodes.
