A simple and rapid vortex assisted ionic liquid based liquid-liquid microextraction technique (VALLME) was proposed for preconcentration of trace levels of cadmium. According to this method, the extraction solvent was dispersed into the aqueous samples by the assistance of vortex agitator. Cadmium preconcentration was mediated by chelation with the 8-hydroxyquinoline (oxine) reagent and an IL, ...

CLINICAL CHEMISTRY, Vol. 32, No. 5, 1986 895 We prepared aqueous calcium standards in concentrations verified by atomic absorption, AMP buffer (3.5 mol/L, pH 10.7), AMP buffer with sodium acetate (25 g/L, pH 10.7), and start reagent(CPC, 0.48g/L;8-hydroxyquinoline, 5 g/L; pH 1.6). Manual and automated versions were performed by mixing sample, distilled water, AMP buffer, and start reagentin vol...

8-Hydroxyquinoline and several of its derivatives inactivate the transforming ability of Rous sarcoma virus and inhibit its ribonucleic acid-dependent deoxyribonucleic acid polymerase activity. The copper complex of these metal-binding ligands is as active as the free ligand. The activity of the 8-hydroxyquinolines is approximately 50-fold more effective than another group of metal-binding comp...

Angiogenesis is crucial for tumor growth. Thus, inhibiting angiogenesis represents a promising avenue for preventing tumor growth. This study investigated the anti-angiogenesis and anti-tumor effects of 8-hydroxyquinoline ruthenium(II) complexes [Ru(bpy)2(8-HQ)](+) (BQ) and [Ru(phen)2(8-HQ)](+) (PQ). The results showed that both compounds, especially PQ, suppressed the proliferation, migration,...

Novel mixed ligand bivalent copper complexes [Cu. L. A. ClO 4 ] and [Cu. L. A] where "L" is Schiff bases, namely 2-((3,4-dimethylisoxazol-5-ylimino)methyl)-4-bromophenol (DMIIMBP)/2-((3,4-dimethylisoxazol-5-ylimino)methyl)-4-chlorophenol (DMIIMCP), and "A" is heterocyclic compound, such as 1,10-phenanthroline (phen)/2,2(1)-bipyridyl (bipy)/8-hydroxyquinoline (oxine)/5-chloro-8-hydroxyquinoline ...

Building on the success of organic electronic devices, such as light-emitting diodes and field-effect transistors, procedures for fabricating non-volatile organic memory devices are now being explored. Here, we demonstrate a novel organic memory device fabricated by solution processing. Programmable electrical bistability was observed in a device made from a polystyrene film containing gold nan...

An investigation into the structure and chemical stability of green light emitting aluminum complexes of 8-hydroxyquinoline (Alqx)/Al2O3 colloids was performed. (Alqx)/Al2O3 ethanol colloid was characterized by the high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric and simultaneous differential thermal analysis, and thermogravime...

A lithium-boron complex, lithium tetra (2-methyl 8-hydroxy quinolinato) boron (LiBqm4), which emits greenish-blue light has been synthesized by the reaction of LiBH4 with 2-methyl 8-hydroxyquinoline in a molecular weight ratio of 1:4, and used for organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) fabrication. The complex has been characterized by optical absorption, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), photo...

Bubbles in organic light-emitting diodes can be formed from gas release due to Joule heating effect at localized electrical shorts during operation, which could be simulated by a rapid thermal annealing. The gases in the bubbles consist of not only adsorbed moistures but also the decomposed organic species, which are detected in situ in an ultrahigh vacuum chamber. In the device of Al/tris-~8-h...
