A porous polymer monolithic column for solid-phase microextraction and chemiluminescence detection was integrated into a simple microfluidic chip for the extraction and determination of catechins in green tea. The porous polymer was prepared by poly(glycidyl methacrylate-co-ethylene dimethacrylate) and modified with ethylenediamine. Catechins can be concentrated in the porous polymer monolithic...

Chemiluminescence (CL) of a cyclometallated iridium (III) complex {tris[1-(2,6-dimethylphenoxy)-4-(4-chlorophenyl)phthalazine]iridium(III)} in the presence of potassium permanganate and oxalic acid is reported for the first time. Cysteine exhibits sufficient enhancing effect on the CL generated from the cyclometallated iridium(III) complex, which make it possible for the sensitive detection of ...

bananas are climacteric fruits and controlling ripening is effective in reducing loss. this experiment studied the effect of packaging (plastic bag, edible wax and plastic bag, plastic bag and 2 or 4 g/kg potassium permanganate) over 5 weeks of cold storage on the quality and characteristics of cavendish cultivar bananas. the samples were removed from storage at 8, 16, 24, 32 and 40 days and fr...

THE method generally employed for the determination of lactic acid consists in the removal of protein by tungstic acid or trichloroacetic acid, the subsequent removal of sugar by copper sulphate and lime, the oxidation of the lactic acid by permanganate to acetaldehyde which is distilled off and trapped in sodium bisulphite solution and finally the titration with iodine of the bound bisulphite....

This paper reports on development of a system consisting of a portable sequential injector coupled with potentiometric unit for sensing of chlorpheniramine (CPA), based on the reaction of CPA with potassium permanganate in acidic media. Various experimental conditions affecting the potential intensity were studied and incorporated into the procedure. Under the optimum conditions, linear relatio...

Potassium permanganate has become an established fixative in electron microscopy (Luft, 1956) and has special value in the study of cell membranes. During an investigation of methods of increasing the contrast in the electron microscope of tissues embedded in epoxy resin, t a solution of potassium permanganate was used to treat the sections, using a technique similar to that of Watson (1958). P...

This article presents a novel method for tuning the reactivity of nanoenergetic materials by coating a strong oxidizer nanoparticle (potassium permanganate; approximately 150 nm) with a layer of a relatively mild oxidizer (iron oxide). The measured reactivity for a nano-Al/composite oxidizer could be varied by more than a factor of 10, as measured by the pressurization rate in a closed vessel (...

An investigation into the chemiluminescence of fourteen organic acids and tris(2,2'-bipyridyl)ruthenium(II) was undertaken. Particular emphasis was placed upon the method of production of the reagent, tris(2,2'-bipyridyl)ruthenium(III), with cerium(IV) sulfate, potassium permanganate, lead dioxide and electrochemical generation. Analytically useful chemiluminescence was observed when Ce(IV) or ...
