The formation and liquid-liquid extraction of ion-association complexes between gallium(III)-4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol (PAR) anionic chelates and cations of four ditetrazolium chlorides (DT2+) were studied: Neotetrazolium chloride (NTC), Blue Tetrazolium chloride (BTC), Nitro Blue Tetrazolium chloride (NBT) and Tetranitro Blue Tetrazolium chloride (TNBT). The optimum extraction-spectrophotomet...

We have synthesized cubic and linear polysiloxanes containing polyoxyethylene branches (ASiP-Cu) using tetraethoxysilane, glycol, copper chloride as precursors; the products are stable to self-condensation. The effect of content on chemical structure ASiP-Cu has been established. A special study was aimed at defining modifying sorption characteristics membranes based microporous, optically tran...

The self-assembly of organic 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN) into hierarchical architectures, such as microfibers, microrods, and sheaflike structures, in solution was successfully achieved by reprecipitation method with the assistance of thermoresponsive diblock copolymer poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide)-b-poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PDMA-b-PNIPAM). It was found that the morphology modification...

Simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of Mn, Zn and Co was studied by two methods, classical partial least-squares (PLS) and kernel partial least-squares (KPLS), with 2-(5-bromo-2- pyridylazo)-5-diethylaminephenol (5-Br-PADAP) and cetyl pyridinium bromide (CPB). Two programs, SPGRPLS and SPGRKPLS, were designed to perform the calculations. Eight error functions were calculated for deduc...

A flow-through optical fibre chemical sensor for the determination of Co(II) at trace level using immobilised 2-(4-pyridylazo)resorcinol (PAR) as the reagent phase is proposed. PAR is physically adsorbed onto XAD-7. This method provided a great sensitivity and simplicity with wide linear response range from 1x10(-2) to 1x10(3)ppm and detection limit of 20ppb. This method also showed a reproduci...

A novel method was developed for determination of trace amounts of lead in water and food samples. Solidified floating organic drop microextraction was used to preconcentrate the lead ion. After the analyte was complexed with 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol, undecanol and acetonitrile were added as extraction and dispersive solvent, respectively. Variables such as pH, volumes of extraction and disp...

The centrifugal liquid membrane (CLM) method, designed for the rapid sample injection, was applied to the kinetic study of the complexation of palladium(II) with 2-(5-bromo-2-pyridylazo)-5-diethyaminophenol (5-Br-PADAP) in the heptane/water system. The formation rates of Pd(II)-5-Br-PADAP complex, which existed only at the heptane/water interface, could be directly measured by the CLM method co...

We have developed a sensitive procedure for determination of serum copper by use of the color reagent 4-(3,5-dibromo-2-pyridylazo)-N-ethyl-N-sulfopropylaniline. After mixing serum sample and reagent, and incubating at 37 degrees C for 5 min, we measure the absorbance of the resulting chelate complex at 580 nm (molar absorptivity, 80,000 L.mol-1.cm-1). Results of the method varied linearly with ...
