fluoride is recognized as an effective agent for dental caries prevention. generally, the main source of fluoride intake is drinking water. in this study, fluoride content in 18 commercial brands of bottled waters was investigated. six samples from each batch of 18 iranian commercial brands of bottled waters were supplied. the fluoride content of samples was analyzed by fluoride ion selective e...

2-amino-n-benzthioazolyl benzamide (abtb) was synthesized, characterized and used for thefabrication of a potentiometric sensor for cu2+ metal ions. the electrode exhibits linear response to cu(ii) over a wide concentration range (4.79×10 -8 – 1.85×10 -1 m) with nernstian slope of 30 ± 1.5 mvper decade. the electrode can be used in the ph range from 2 to 9. it has a fast response time of about1...

The response to uniform selection may occur in alternate ways that result in similar performance. We tested for multiple adaptive solutions during artificial selection for high voluntary wheel running in laboratory mice. At generation 43, the four replicate high runner (HR) lines averaged 2.85-fold more revolutions per day as compared with four non-selected control (C) lines, and females ran 1....

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´...

the polymer supported hypochlorite ion is a facile selective oxidizing agent for the oxidation of various alcohols to aldehydes and ketones. similarly is successfully oxidizes various hantzsch type 1,4- dihydropyridines to corresponding pyridines.

a new poly(vinylchloride) membrane sensor for cr3+ ions based on di (benzylamino)glyoxime asan ionophore was prepared. the electrode has a linear dynamic range 1×10-6-1×10-1 mol l-1,with anernstian slope of 20.3 ± 0.5 mv per decade and a detection limit of 2×10-7. it has a fast responsetime of

a pvc ion-selective membrane electrode based on cd-tetraphenyl porphyrine as a carrier was prepared fordetermination of mno4- ion. this electrode revealed good selectivity toward permanganate ion over a widevariety of anions. effects of some experimental parameters such as nature of the plasticizer, the amounts ofcarrier and additive, and concentration of the internal solution on the potential ...

An iodide ion-selective PVC membrane sensor based on copper (Π)-bis-Nphenilsalicyldenaminatocomplex as a novel sensing material is successfully developed. Theelectrode showed a good selectivity for iodide ion with respect to common inorganic anions. Thesensor exhibited a good linear response with slope of _58.6 ± 0.4 mV per decade over theconcentration range of 5.0 × 10-6 to 1.0 × 10-1 mol L-1,...
