the purpose of the current research is investigating the phenylalanine removal by using magnetic nanoparticles (fe3o4) from water samples. the effect of ph, contact time and phenylalanine concentration on phenylalanine adsorption efficiency by magnetite nanoparticles are studied in a batch system. transmission electron microscopy (tem), x-ray diffraction patterns (xrd) and fourier transform inf...

There is a requirement for a noninvasive technique to monitor stem cell differentiation. Several candidates based on optical spectroscopy are discussed in this review: Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy. These techniques are briefly described, and the ability of each to distinguish undifferentiated from...

A new FTIR technique was developed for characterizing thin polymer films used in combinatorial materials science. Fourier transform infrared microspectroscopy mapping technique was used to determine the composition of polymer blend gradients. Composition gradients were made from poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) and poly(D,L-lactic acid) (PDLLA) in the form of thin films (6 cm × 2 cm) deposited on IR ...

in this study a special type of silicoaluminophosphate with opal structure (opal-sapo) was prepared under microwave condition using tetraethylorthosilicate (teos), triethanolamine (tea), aluminiumisopropoxid and phosphoric acid 85%. the product was characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), thermogravimetric (tga) and fourier infrared spectroscopy (ftir).the crystalline product showed a good act...

We have demonstrated that globular proteins, such as hen egg lysozyme in phosphate buffered saline at room temperature, lose native structural stability and activity when adsorbed onto well-defined homogeneous solid surfaces. This structural loss is evident by alpha-helix to turns/random during the first 30 min and followed by a slow alpha-helix to beta-sheet transition. Increase in intramolecu...

This paper has reported on the electrical and nonstructural of polymer-based materials in corporation NiO (Nickel oxide) in concentrations of 0.2%, 0.4% and 0.8% by weight of PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) polymer. Nanocrystallites phases and properties were characterized with using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transfer infrared radiation (FTIR),Energy distribution X-ray(EDX) techniques and X-Map ...

We developed a novel surface plasmon resonance (SPR) method, based on Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, as a label-free technique for studying dynamic processes occurring within living cells in real time. With this method, the long (micrometer) infrared wavelength produced by the FTIR generates an evanescent wave that penetrates deep into the sample. In this way, it enables increa...

The use of a new technique, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) chemical imaging, has been demonstrated for the enhancement of latent fingermarks on a number of surfaces. Images of untreated fingermarks on glass backgrounds with excellent ridge detail were acquired using infrared chemical imaging. High quality fingermarks on glass backgrounds were also developed using ethyl cyanoacrylate (super g...
