A new coated-wire electrode based on PVC membrane plasticized with dioctyl phthalate (DOP) and containing the diltiazem-tetraiodido bismuthate (III) ion association coated a silver wire was constructed used for potentiometric determination of diltiazem hydrochloride. The performance characterized optimized according to following experimental criteria: composition, soaking time, working pH range...

A study was carried out to characterize Ni-Co-PVC and Ni-Cu-PVC composite materials prepared by mechanical alloying technique (MAT) using SEM, EDS and electrochemical test. Composite materials were prepared by mixing together 95% of metal powder (Ni+Co or Ni+Cu) with 5% PVC. PVC was used as a binder and tetrahydrofuran (THF) was used as a solvent in composite material preparation. Based on the ...

The fabrication and electrochemical evaluation of two PVC membrane-based Ion-Selective electrodes responsive for ramipril drug have been proposed. The sensitive membranes were prepared using ramipril-phosphomolibdate and ramipril-tetraphenylborate ion-pair complexes as electroactive sensing materials in plasticized PVC support. The electrodes based on these materials provide near-Nernestian res...

this paper focuses on the effects of the addition of an ionic liquid, 1-allyl-3-butylimidazilium bis(trifluoromethane sulfonyl)imide ([abim]tfsi), which has a high affinity for benzene, into the poly(vinyl chloride) (pvc) membrane on the pervaporation characteristics of the removal of benzene from aqueous solutions of dilute benzene. when aqueous solutions of 100～500 ppm benzene were permeated ...

In all eucaryotic cells, specific vesicle fusion during vesicular transport is mediated by membrane-associated proteins called SNAREs (soluble N-ethyl-maleimide sensitive factor attachment protein receptors). Sequence analysis identified a total of 54 SNARE genes (18 Qa-SNAREs/Syntaxins, 11 Qb-SNAREs, 8 Qc-SNAREs, 14 R-SNAREs/VAMPs and 3 SNAP-25) in the Arabidopsis genome. Almost all of them we...

The cobaltabisdicarbollide anion is used as a new material able to generate an ion-pair complex used for PVC membrane ion selective electrodes.

A highly selective liquid membrane nitrite microsensor based on the hydrophobic ion-carrier aquocyanocobalt(III)-hepta(2-phenylethyl)-cobrynate is described. The sensor has a tip diameter of 10 to 15 (mu)m. The response is log-linear in freshwater down to 1 (mu)M NO(inf2)(sup-) and in seawater to 10 (mu)M NO(inf2)(sup-). A method is described for preparation of relatively large polyvinyl chlori...

Many research studies have been conducted on the use of conjugated polymers in the construction of chemical sensors including potentiometric, conductometric and amperometric sensors or biosensors over the last decade. The induction of conductivity on conjugated polymers by treating them with suitable oxidizing agents won Heeger, MacDiarmid and Shirakawa the 2000 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Common...

in this research, polyvinylchloride based composite heterogeneous cation exchange membranes were prepared by the solution casting technique. chitosan-co-iron nickel oxide nanoparticles were utilized as membrane surface modifier to improve the membranes electrochemical properties. the effect of additive nanoparticle concentration in the modifier solution on the properties of composite membranes ...
