Hydroxyurea (Hy) in aqueous solutions has several tautomeric forms due to the formation of a >N-OH bond. The azometinic group >C=Nis present in all these tautomeric forms. The structural forms influence the hydrophil-lipophil character of Hy and it determines the complexing of the Fe(II) ions, thus explaining the appearance of anemia, due to the treatment with hydroxyurea. The paper presents a ...

One heat-modifiable protein of Escherichia coli outer membrane does not completely change to the high-temperature form in the presence of magnesium ion in sodium dodecyl sulfate solution. When the metal ion complexing reagents ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, phosphate ion, hydroxyl ion, or the competitive cations Zn2+ or Ca2+ are added to the sodium dodecyl sulfate-solubilized sample of outer ...

Objective: The study aimed to develop a simple, efficient, inexpensive, rapid, and reproducible spectrophotometric analytical technique for aminoglycosides analysis by condensing with ninhydrin reagent. Methods: At pH of 8.0, different aminoglycosides, including amikacin, gentamycin, neomycin, streptomycin, were deaminated the working standard solution each component was accurately placed into ...

Removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution was studied using charred pomegranate fruit waste [CPW] as a new low cost biosorbent under batch method at room temperature. Its efficiency for removal of Cr(VI) was compared with raw pomegranate fruit waste[RPW]. Various sorption parameters such as contact time, initial concentration of Cr(VI) ion and effect of pH on the adsorption capacity of the biosor...

The suitability of 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphine as a complexing agent for the on-line preconcentration of cadmium using an anion exchanger (Amberlite IRA-904) in a microcolumn has been tested. Various parameters which affect complex formation and its sorption, as well as elution into the nebulizer of flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS), were optimized. A 5 x 10(-4) mol 1...

Ferron has been used as an analytical reagent for the extractive spectrophotometric determination of molybdenum(V) obtained from the reduction of molybdenum(VI) with ascorbic acid. Molybdenum(V) in presence of a large number of cations, anions and complexing agents forms a yellow complex with ferron that is quantitatively extractable into tri-n-octylamine-chloroform from 1 M H2SO4 medium. The c...

Background Complexing agents are widely used in various industrial processes and household products throughout the world. Amongst the well-known complexing agents, not only EDTA but also DTPA and NTA are widely used. Possible legislative restrictions of the use of biologically recalcitrant complexing agents brings about studies of novel and alternative products and at the same time more sophist...

A method for the automated determination of aluminum in a variety of beverages is described. The method utilizes lumogallion as a complexing agent in a buffer solution. The system is very similar to flow-injection analysis (FIA), however, the tubing id is larger than that typically used in FIA. Therefore, the system is best described as non-segmented continuous flow analysis using fluorescence ...
