We describe a voltammetric and spectroscopic study of Mg electrodeposition/dissolution (MgDep/Dis) in borohydride diglyme electrolyte solution containing Li(+) carried out on a Pt ultramicroelectrode (UME, r = 5 μm). The data reveal Li(+) cation facilitation that has not been previously recognized in studies made using macroelectrodes. While a single broad, asymmetric stripping peak is expected...

Moveout analysis of long-spread P-wave data is widely used to estimate the key time-processing parameter η in layered VTI (transversely isotropic with a vertical symmetry axis) media. Inversion for interval η values, however, suffers from instability caused by the tradeoff between the effective moveout parameters and by the subsequent error amplification during Dix-type layer stripping. Here, w...

A mechanistic study to provide diagnostics of anodic stripping electrode processes at bismuth-film electrodes is presented from both theoretical and experimental points of view. Theoretical models for three types of electrode mechanisms are developed under conditions of square-wave voltammetry, combining rigorous modeling based on integral equations and the step function method, resulting in de...

Carbon-paste electrodes (CPEs) were studied to elucidate the cathodic stripping voltammetric determination of iodine. At an accumulation potential of 1.0 V (vs. SCE), iodide was preconcentrated on CPEs via an ion-pairing reaction, followed by oxidation to iodine. Then a linear scan voltammogram was recorded after 10 s of quiescent time by a cathodic potential scan from 0.7 V to 0.1 V at a scan ...

Copper complexation in marine systems is mainly controlled by organic matter, partially produced by micro- and macroalgae that release exudates with the capacity to bind metals. This feature is important as it influences bioavailability, bioaccumulation, toxicity, and transport of copper through biological membranes. The release of Cu-complexing ligands by seaweeds cultured under copper excess ...

Milk yield, milk flow, and udder morphology traits were measured in 72 East Friesian crossbred multiparous ewes to estimate the variation in milk flow patterns present in this research flock, and to asses the repeatability of these measurements and their relationships with other lactation traits. A special milk flow apparatus designed for dairy ewes was used on two consecutive morning milkings ...

Using a paraffin impregnated graphite electrode (PIGE) and mercury-modifiedpyrolytic graphite electrode with basal orientation (Hg-PGEb) copper(II) and Cu(II)-DNApurine base solutions have been studied by cyclic (CV) and linear sweep voltammetry(LSV) in connection with elimination voltammetry with linear scan (EVLS). In chlorideand bromide solutions (pH 6), the redox process of Cu(II) proceeded...

OBJECTIVE To investigate how precise Descemet stripping works in posterior lamellar keratoplasty (Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty [DSAEK]) for the treatment of corneal endothelial disorders. METHODS In a prospective, single-center, nonrandomized consecutive series, 20 Descemet membrane specimens obtained after Descemet stripping in DSAEK using a Price hook were examined ...
