A highly sensitive flow injection-chemiluminescence detection (FI-CL) method based on pyrogallol (Pg) chemiluminescent reagent (CLreagent) oxidized by periodate for the determination of propranolol is presented. The presented method is an indirect CL detection method based on the CL emission generated during the oxidation of Pg with the excess of periodate that remains after oxidation of propra...

Apart from the generally dominant trivalent oxidation state, several lanthanides can occur in divalent or tetravalent states as well. Changing valence state alters chemical properties and, therefore, gives opportunity to ease intragroup lanthanide separations. The hydrated terbium(III) ion has a highly positive reduction potential (E0 = + 3.1 V vs. SHE), but it be oxidized its via ozonolysis el...

Ion channels are signal transduction molecules that switch ion permeation pathways on and off (gating). Crystal structures of several kinds of potassium channels have revealed open and closed conformations, which provide static pictures of gating status. Here we studied KcsA potassium channels undergoing conformational changes at the single-molecule level. A KcsA channel with a gold nanocrystal...

structurally different trimethyl silyl ethers are oxidized with bu4/nio4 in the presence of alcl3 and bf3 as catalysts in ch3cn and chcl3 under reflux conditions. the corresponding carbonyl compounds are isolated in good yields.

Some time ago Carter and Neville reported (1) that hydroxy-n-proline yields formaldehyde on oxidation with periodate. In another laboratory, this oxidation was found to produce a considerably lower yield of formaldehyde than we had obtained.’ A further study of this reaction was accordingly undertaken. Oxidation of several new samples of hydroxy-L-proline gave lower yields of formaldehyde than ...

A capsular polysaccharide produced by Aerobacter aerogenes has been purified and shown to consist of galactose, mannose, and glucuronic acid in a molar ratio of 2: 1: 1, respectively. Partial acid hydrolysis liberated an aldobiouronic acid identified as 2-0-P-D-glucuronosyl-D-mannose. Analysis of capsular polysaccharide by Smith periodate degradation further indicated that all of the galactose ...

No periodate oxidation on chitin? For the first time, direct selective alkaline of chitin led to isolation ordered domains as uniform anisotropic and zwitterionic ChNCs after simultaneous removal non-ordered domains.
