Abstract Biological thiol amino acids have been suggested as biomarkers for pathological changes because they are reactive chemicals that participate in various physiological processes. In this study, multisegmented injection capillary electrophoresis–mass spectrometry with online sample preconcentration was used analysis of and intermediates sulfur metabolism human glioma cell line U-251 high ...

Membrane separation is a very well known technology having a large number of applications. Separation of metal ions by selective membrane transport is of great importance from both fundamental and practical viewpoints. According to IUPAC, a membrane is defined as a heterogeneous phase which acts as a barrier to the flow of molecules and ionic species in liquid or vapour phase. Membranes can be ...

in this work, a novel method is described for the preconcentration of pb2+, cd2+ and zn2+ ions in environmental samples using uniform silanized mesopor (lus-1) functionalized by ethylenediamine groups as a new extractant. the determination of ions is done by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (icp-oes). the extraction time and efficiency, ph and amount of adsorbent, minimu...

Combined plasmonic nanocrystals and metal–organic framework thin-films are fabricated for sensing gases in the near-infrared range. This nanocomposite thin-film shows a highly sensitive response in near-infrared absorption, which is attributed to preconcentration of gas molecules in metal–organic framework pores causing close proximity to the electromagnetic fields at the plasmonic nanocrystal ...

The electrolytic coproduction of CO and H2 is achieved from air, water, and a single beam of sunlight rather than from fossil fuels. H2 and CO cosynthesis is driven by a single concentrator photovoltaic to simultaneously drive molten hydroxide and molten carbonate electrolyses. The carbon neutral process captures carbon without the need for the preconcentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide.

Based on the "coffee-ring effect", we developed a highly efficient SERS platform which integrates the fabrication of SERS-active substrates and the preconcentration of analytes into one step. The high sensitivity, robustness, reproducibility and simplicity make this platform ideal for on-site analysis of small volume samples at low concentrations in complex matrices.
