A novel flow-injection chemiluminescence(CL)method has been developed for the determination of hydroquinone (HQ) and catechol (CT), based on their inhibition of the chemiluminescence reaction of luminol–KMnO4–β-cyclodextrin (β-CD). It was found that β-cyclodextrin could effectively enhance the chemiluminescence produced from the reaction of luminol with KMnO4 in basic media. The proposed method...

Chemiluminescence, Dioxetanes, Reaction Kinetics, Spectra, Biradicals The thermal decomposition of 1,2-diadamantyldioxetane was studied by kinetic and spectroscopic methods. Spectra of the chemiluminescence emitted during the thermally induced decomposition of 1,2-diadamantyldioxetane, tetramethyldioxetane and trimethyldioxetane were obtained and the influence of quenchers and radical-scavenger...

The chemiluminescence of the luminol-H2O2-horseradish peroxidase system is increased by fluorescein. Fluorescein produces an enhancement of the luminol chemiluminescence similar to that of phenolphthalein, by an energy transfer process from luminol to fluorescein. The maximum intensity and the total chemiluminescence emission (between 380 and 580 nm) of luminol with fluorescein was more than th...

The metabolism of 7,8-dihydroxy-7,8-dihydrobenzo[a]pyrene results primarily in the ultimate carcinogenic metabolite of benzo[a]pyrene, 7,8-dihydroxy-9,10-oxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene and to a lesser extent 7,8-dihydroxy-9,10-dioxetane-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene, from which chemiluminescence is observed. This specific microsomal chemiluminescence has been used to establish that t...

Chemiluminescence (CL) is a very promising method for applications in analytic chemistry and biological systems due to the elimination of external light source, which could reduce autofluorescence interference improve signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) tissue penetration depth. The fluorescent dyes, chemiluminescent initiator, reaction temperature are three crucial factors that determine chemiluminesc...

Current work employs dye extracted from leaves of Costus woodsonii as a new sensitizer for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The leave was in three different solvents namely ethanol, methanol, and acetone. Extraction carried out by the freezing method. DSSCs with configuration TiO2/dye/electrolyte/Pt were assembled. dyes DSSC methanol extract has an efficiency 0.23 % short-circuit current den...

introduction: we investigated the role of atp-sensitive potassium channels and l-type calcium channels in morphine-induced hyperalgesia after nociceptive sensitization. methods: we used a hotplate apparatus to assess pain behavior in male nmri mice. nociceptive sensitization was induced by three days injection of morphine and five days of drug free. on day 9 of the schedule, pain behavior test ...
