A rapid and reproducible method for chloride estimation in urine is described. The colour produced is stable and obeys Beer's law over a wide range of concentrations using a simple colorimeter and filter. The method gives good agreement with both the potentiometric titration method of Sanderson (1952) and the mercurimetric titration method of Schales and Schales (1941). The precision of the col...

In this paper, the preparation of a potentiometric strip for pH monitoring in saliva samples is reported. The potentiometric strip consists of a solid contact pH-selective and of a solidcontact ionogel reference electrode prepared on a dual screen printed substrate. The screen printing protocols, i.e., type of inks and number of deposits, were adjusted to relatively improve the batch reproducib...

A rapid and simple sequential potentiometric method is described for the determination of nitrate and chloride ions in vegetables, by using home-made ion selective electrodes. The extraction of both ions from the vegetable samples was effected by magnetic stirring of the samples during 30 min in water at room temperature. Direct Potentiometry was used as analytical technique for measurement. Th...

Simple methods are described for the analysis of sulphate, sulphite and dithionate mixtures by potentiometric titration with lead perchlorate (and use of a lead ion-selective electrode). The error and precision are both about 2-5% for the sulphate concentration range 3 x 10(-3) -6 x 10(-4)M. The sulphur content in fuels derived from refuse was determined by potentiometric titration after bomb-c...

in order to preparing strontium ion selective electrode 6-(4- nitropheny1)-2-pheny14, 4- dipropy1-3, 5-diaza-bicyclo [3, 1, 0] hex-2-ene (npdbh) was used as an ionophore. this electrode responds to sr (ii)ion with a sensitivity of 28.2 ± 0.5 mv/decade over the range 1.0 x 10-6 to 1.0 mat ph 3.0-10.0. thelimit of detection was 2.4 x 10-7 m. the influences of membrane composition, the ph of the t...

From the analysis of the potentiometric titration data of polyelectrolytes, we can obtain the electrostatic free energy of the macromolecules. Therefore, potentiometric titration is a useful experimental procedure to study the conformation and conformational change of macromolecules. A few examples of the application of potentiometric titration to the studies on polypeptides, protein and DNA ar...

Stress was firstly defined in 19351, as a reaction of humans to external stimuli. In the modern way of life and every day actions, the term stress is very common and has a significant influence on human reactions, health, work ability and mood. There is also a direct connection between stress and depression in humans2. Apart from adults, recent studies show that preschool children are also unde...
