Simple methods are described for the analysis of sulphate, sulphite and dithionate mixtures by potentiometric titration with lead perchlorate (and use of a lead ion-selective electrode). The error and precision are both about 2-5% for the sulphate concentration range 3 x 10(-3) -6 x 10(-4)M. The sulphur content in fuels derived from refuse was determined by potentiometric titration after bomb-c...

Dodecabenzylbambus[6]uril (Bn12BU[6]) is an anion receptor that binds the perchlorate ion most tightly (stability constant ~1010 M?1) of all anions due to excellent match between size in relation cavity. This new bambusuril compound was used as ionophore ion-selective membrane (ISM) develop selective electrodes (ISEs) for determination concentration utilizing poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (P...

This work describes the use of an array of potentiometric sensors and an artificial neural network response model to determine perchlorate and sulfide ions in polluted waters, by what is known as an electronic tongue. Sensors used have been all-solid-state PVC membrane selective electrodes, where their ionophores were different metal-phtalocyanine complexes with specific and anion generic respo...

Selective ion separation is a major challenge with far-ranging impact from water desalination to product separation in catalysis. Recently introduced ferrocene (Fc)/ ferrocenium (Fc+) polymer electrode materials have been demonstrated experimentally and theoretically to selectively bind carboxylates over perchlorate through weak C−H···O hydrogen bond (HB) interactions that favor carboxylates, d...

the mechanistic aspects of the electrochemical reduction of u(v1) nitrate at a mercury electrode in chloroform, using three different supporting electrolytes, are described. in the presence of tetrabutylarnmonium perchlorate (tbap) as a neutral electrolyte, uo (no ) , reduced in two irreversible electrochemical steps to form a u(v1)-u(v) binuclear complex and u(iv), respectively. in the presenc...

Background: Blood gas analysis (BGA), including measurement of ionized calcium, is performed routinely in patients with end stage renal disease on renal replacement therapy, especially when using citrate for regional anticoagulation. After installation of a new blood gas analyzer (RAPIDpoint 405; BGA), we observed lower ionized calcium concentrations in a few patients without signs of hypocalce...

a pvc membrane electrode based on 1-[({[(butylsulfunyl)carbothioyl]disulfanyl} carbothioyl)sulfanyl]butane as a suitable ion carrier for determination of lanthanum(iii) ion was prepared. this electrode revealedsuch a good selectivity toward la3+ ion over a wide variety of other metal ions. some experimental parametersuch as membrane composition, nature, and amount of plasticizer, the amount of ...

Catalytic currents yielded by cytochrome c in ammoniacal buffers containing cobalt ions at a dropping mercury electrode (Brdicka's catalytic currents) were investigated by means of direct current, differential pulse, normal pulse (NP) and phase-selective alternating current polarography. It was found that Brdicka's catalytic current of cytochrome c, (the more negative part of Brdicka's double w...

an enzyme electrode was developed using the enzyme sulfite oxidase (ec1.8.3.1) immobilized onto pig intestine. hydrogen peroxide produced was monitored amperometrically. all experimental parameters such as ph, temperature, buffer constituent concentration, were thoroughly investigated and optimized when appropriate. the response to sulfite concentration was linear in the range 5.2´10-6 to 1.02´...
