We describe a modified glucose oxidase reagent for use in the polarographic determination of glucose with the Beckman "Glucose Analyzer." The reagent contains 1 mL/L of a surfactant (Brij-35 250 g/L solution) as the wetting agent instead of glycerol. Precipitation of components associated with the formulation recommended by Fischl et al. [Clin. Chem. 21, 760 (1975)] does not occur with this rea...

BACKGROUND Despite its potential benefits over univariate, chemometrics is rarely utilized for optimizing sequential injection analysis (SIA) methods. Specifically, in previous vis-spectrophotometric SIA methods, chemometrically optimized conditions were confined within flow rate and reagent concentrations while other conditions were ignored. RESULTS The current manuscript reports, for the fi...

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the reliability and validity of refractometry, hydrometry, and reagent strips in assessing urine specific gravity in collegiate wrestlers. DESIGN AND SETTING: We assessed the reliability of refractometry, hydrometry, and reagent strips between 2 trials and among 4 testers. The validity of hydrometry and reagent strips was assessed by comparison with refractometry, the ...

Tripropylammonium fluorochromate(VI) (TPAFC), is an efficient and new reagent, which isprepared easily and oxidizes thiols to the corresponding disulfides, quickly. The reactions areperformed cleanly and are controlled to stop at the disulfide stage, without over-oxidation andside products. Coupling of thiols to their corresponding disulfides, are studied in solution atroom temperature and in s...

pegylation is a well-established technique utilized to overcome the problems related to the therapeutic applications of peptides and proteins. reasons for the pegylation of these biological macromolecules include reducing immunogenicity, proteolytic degradation and rapid clearance from blood circulation. octreotide is an octapeptide analogue of naturally-occurred somatostatin. this peptide has ...

Abstract The at meant of waste water from hexavalent chromium ions with calcium per oxide CaO 2 was investigated. This product is obtained soda ash production waste. Clarified part still suspension (distillation suspension) contains chloride and sodium chloride. process producing peroxide based on the interaction solutions hydroxide. A two-step (reagent) method purification proposed. first stag...

A novel tropylium-based coupling reagent has been developed to facilitate the synthesis of a series of esters, amides, lactones and peptides under mild reaction conditions. Remarkably, this reagent can be used in catalytic amounts in conjunction with a sacrificial reagent, offering a new and efficient method for nucleophilic coupling reactions of carboxylic acids.

The essential instrument settings are shown in Table 1. ‘Enzyme reagent was loaded as “2nd reagent,” and the modified color reagents A and B were “4th reagent” and “3rd reagent,” respectively. The instrument incubated sample and enzyme reagent for 4 mm in the inner chamber of the rotor. It then added 4-aminophenol to the inner chamber and sodium hydroxide to the outer chamber, mixed the content...
