The changes in NO3- concentration of the solutions were determined by the double ion-selective electrode method, and then the amount of NO3- taken up by the plants was estimated and values of Km and Imax of the Michealis-Menten equation were calculated. Results show that both the method and conditions of determination affected the values of Km and Imax. For example, the Km value was appreciably reduced when the volume of culture solution was increased or when the duration of nutrient uptake was shortened; the Km value obtained with short-term depletion method was higher than that obtained with long-term one. Similar Variations were found for the values of Imax. There was a considerable difference in the characteristics of uptake kinetics between wheat and rape when determined under the same conditions of determination. The isotherm of NO3- uptake by wheat could be separated into saturated and unsaturated parts, and when the concentration of NO3- exceeded 180 uuuuuuuuuuuuM, the relationship between the rate of NO3- uptake and NO3- concentration tended to be linear. However, the isotherm of NO3- uptake by rape was found to fit the Michealis-Menten equation and no linear relationship could be found.展开更多

The measured cell potential was not affected by the total electrolyte concentration when the total cation concentration was 10-1-10-3 mol L-1 and the concentration ratio CK+ / CNa+. was 10:1 to 1:50. When the concentration ratios were equal to 1and the total electrolyte concentrations were 10-2 and 10-3 mol L-1, the ion activity ratio measurement would not be affected by pH in the pH range of 3.5 to 11.5 and 4.4 to 11 respectively. Ions other than H+ have no remarkable influence on the measurement. The ion activity ratio of K+ to Na+ measured directly in soil suspension agree well with those in centrifuged supernant solution. The relative deviation was within 4%. From the measured ion activity ratio, the difference of the bonding energies of K+ and Na+ ions was calculated.展开更多

Hydroxide was chosen to mask aluminum for the determination of 0.01—0.1 mol/L of fluoride. The simulation indicated that the permissible aluminum masked at a certain p H value was limited and hardly related to F-concentration and boric acid. It is better to control p H value below 11.5 and the aluminum concentration within 0.025 mol/L to minimize the interference of hydroxide to the fluoride ISE. The decomposition conditions of boron trifluoride by aluminum chloride were investigated. It is found that the F-detection ratio will approach 1.0 if the Al/F molar ratio is 0.3—0.7 and aluminum concentration is no more than 0.02 mol/L when heated at 80 ℃ for 10 min. In one word, hydroxide is quite fit to mask aluminum for samples which contain high content of fluoride and aluminum and the BF3 content can be successfully determined by this method.展开更多

It utilizes the micro-organisms to replace or to interact with the chemical reagents to increase the gap between surface properties of similar minerals and to enhance the separation selectivity. In this work, dolomite-phosphate separation was investigated using amphoteric collector (dodecyl-N-carboxyethyl-N-hyroxyethyl-imidazoline) in presence of bacteria. Two types of bacteria, Corynebacterium- diphtheriae-intermedius (CDI), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA), were used. The collector-bacteria interaction was characterized by Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR), frothing height and Zeta potential. The results show that the collector-bacteria interaction improves the flotation selectivity. Although, the PA positively affects the separation results, the CDI cannot lower the MgO to less than 1%. A phosphate content of 0.7% MgO and 31.77% P205 with a recovery of 68% at pH 11, 3.0 kg/t amphoteric collector, 4× 10^7 cells of PA is obtained.展开更多

The results show that the Fluorine release rate of coal is more than 95% during combustion; The Fluorine release rate of clay is more than 99%; The Fluorine release rate of coal mixed with clay is between 56.44% and 96.64%, and the average value is 76.68%. The clay as a binder for fine coal is one important source of Fluorine pollution caused by coal-combustion in Zhaotong, Yunnan Province. When the Fluorine content of coal is less than 80 mg/kg, the F[uodne amount released from clay (in which Fluorine content is more than 530 mg/kg) is more than 50% of the total Fluorine amount released from coal and clay during coal-combustion. The Fluorine amount released from clay (in which Fluorine content is more than 1 000 mg/kg) is more than 70% of total Fluorine amount released from coal and clay during coal-combustion.展开更多

The chloride ISEs (ion selective electrodes) in this research were the solid membrane chloride ISEs based AgC1. There were two types of chloride ISEs that were developed, namely the chloride ISEs of coated wire and composite systems. Both types of electrodes were characterized. The selectivity was done by comparing Esel of the chloride standard solutions and Esel of the interference ions (Br- and I-). The measurement of chloride ions in water samples was done by using the coated wire chloride ISE, the composite chloride ISE and the Mohr method. We compared the result of the two chloride ISE methods to that of standard method for chloride determination (Mohr) by using F-test and Post Hoc Test LSD (least significant difference) and Duncan. Analysis by using F-test and Post Hoc Test (LSD and Duncan) and characterization results of both the methods showed that coated wire chloride ISE was more effective compared to composite chloride ISE. Nemstian response was 59.83 mV/decade, linier range measurement was 10-1-10-5 M, limit detection was 1.23 × 10-5 M, response time along was 25 s and interfering ion was 10-4 M Br-.展开更多

However, data concerning lead performances and complications for lead repositioning with this technique were scant. The purpose of this study was to observe long- term lead performances and complications of right ventricular outflow tract septal pacing and provide evidences for choosing an optimal electrode implantation site. Methods Thirty-six patients with septal active electrode implantation and 39 with apical passive electrode implantation were enrolled in this study. Pacing threshold, R-wave sensing, lead impedance, pacing QRS width and pacing-related compli- cations for two groups at implantation and follow-up were compared. Results There were higher pacing threshold and shorter pacing QRS width at implantation in the septal group compared with the apical group. There were no differences between the septal and the apical groups in pacing threshold, R-wave sensitivity, lead impedance and pace-related complication during a follow-up. Conclusions Right ventricular outflow tract septum could be used as a first choice for implantation site because it had long-term stable lead performances and no serious complications compared with the traditional apical site.展开更多

The tris(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate best performance corresponds to a membrane composition of 30% poly(vinyl chloride), 65%(TEHP), 3.5% BBC and 1.5% tetradodecyl-ammoniumtetrakis(4-chlorophenyl) borate(ETH 500). This sensor shows very good selectivity and sensitivity towards cadmium ion over a wide variety of cations, including alkali, alkaline earth, transition and heavy metal ions. The effect of membrane composition, selectivity, pH and influence of additive on the response properties of electrode were investigated. The response mechanism was discussed in the view of UV-spectroscopy. The electrode exhibits a Nernstian behavior(with slope of 29.7 mV per decade) over a very wide concentration range from 1.0×10?1 to 1.0×10?8 mol·L?1 with a detection limit of 3.2×10?8 mol·L?1. It shows rela-tively fast response time in whole concentration range(<8 s) and can be used for at least 10 weeks in the pH range of 2.0-9.0. The proposed sensor is successfully used for the determination of cadmium in different chocolate sam-ples and as indicator electrode in titration with ethylene diamine tetraacetate(EDTA).展开更多

Results showed an inverse relation in between chloride and fluoride concentration in muscles of fish under investigation, It was observed that chloride ions contents of marine water fish were significantly higher as compared with fresh water fish. This may be related with the habitat of marine water fish while no appreciable divergence in fluoride concentration in both regions was observed. This indicated that the deliberation of fluoride is the phenomena of nature of fish and self-determining. Highest concentration of fluoride ion in fresh water fish and marine water fish showed an inverse level of chloride ion in it, reflects water body conditions of both resources. A probable mechanism of accumulation of fluoride with respect to essential chloride ion which may be related with the size of ionic radii of both halides ion is described in relevant section of this article. Where a larger ionic radii of chloride ion believed to play an imperative role in reducing fluoridation in fishes. This may be regarded as natural chemical technology for reducing fluoride in muscle (edible part) of fish of both regions.展开更多

However, it is difficult to describe the complex interfacial transport behavior by the traditional mass transfer model. In this paper, we describe an interfacial mass transfer model based on linear non-equilibrium thermodynamics for the analysis of the rate of interfacial transport. The interfacial transfer process rate J depends on the interface mass transfer coefficient K, interfacial area A and chemical potential gradient at the interface. Potassium compounds were selected as model systems. A model based on linear non-equilibrium thermo-dynamics was established in order to describe and predict the transport rate at the solid-solution interface. Together with accurate experimental kinetic data for potassium ions obtained using ion-selective electrodes, a general model which can be used to describe the dissolution rate was established and used to analyze ways of improving the process rate.展开更多

文摘15-day old seedlings of wheat and rape were grown in a series of solutions with different concentrations of KNO3 for a definite period of time. The changes in NO3- concentration of the solutions were determined by the double ion-selective electrode method, and then the amount of NO3- taken up by the plants was estimated and values of Km and Imax of the Michealis-Menten equation were calculated. Results show that both the method and conditions of determination affected the values of Km and Imax. For example, the Km value was appreciably reduced when the volume of culture solution was increased or when the duration of nutrient uptake was shortened; the Km value obtained with short-term depletion method was higher than that obtained with long-term one. Similar Variations were found for the values of Imax. There was a considerable difference in the characteristics of uptake kinetics between wheat and rape when determined under the same conditions of determination. The isotherm of NO3- uptake by wheat could be separated into saturated and unsaturated parts, and when the concentration of NO3- exceeded 180 uuuuuuuuuuuuM, the relationship between the rate of NO3- uptake and NO3- concentration tended to be linear. However, the isotherm of NO3- uptake by rape was found to fit the Michealis-Menten equation and no linear relationship could be found.

For preparing the ISE membranes there are some materials such PVC, PE, organic polyelectrolytes, conducting polymers and inorganic compounds. The black white microscope photos are included, too. Detailed schemes and pictures of the electrodes and correlations were shown in the following article. Results are seen compatible for construction of the versatile ISE electrodes.
文摘Accumulation trend of fluoride ion was carried out in 25 fish species, collected randomly from fresh water and marine water, Sindh, Pakistan to ensure the level of chloride contents by Selective Ion Electrode (SIE) method. Results showed an inverse relation in between chloride and fluoride concentration in muscles of fish under investigation, It was observed that chloride ions contents of marine water fish were significantly higher as compared with fresh water fish. This may be related with the habitat of marine water fish while no appreciable divergence in fluoride concentration in both regions was observed. This indicated that the deliberation of fluoride is the phenomena of nature of fish and self-determining. Highest concentration of fluoride ion in fresh water fish and marine water fish showed an inverse level of chloride ion in it, reflects water body conditions of both resources. A probable mechanism of accumulation of fluoride with respect to essential chloride ion which may be related with the size of ionic radii of both halides ion is described in relevant section of this article. Where a larger ionic radii of chloride ion believed to play an imperative role in reducing fluoridation in fishes. This may be regarded as natural chemical technology for reducing fluoride in muscle (edible part) of fish of both regions.

文摘Interfacial transfer plays an important role in multi-phase chemical processes. However, it is difficult to describe the complex interfacial transport behavior by the traditional mass transfer model. In this paper, we describe an interfacial mass transfer model based on linear non-equilibrium thermodynamics for the analysis of the rate of interfacial transport. The interfacial transfer process rate J depends on the interface mass transfer coefficient K, interfacial area A and chemical potential gradient at the interface. Potassium compounds were selected as model systems. A model based on linear non-equilibrium thermo-dynamics was established in order to describe and predict the transport rate at the solid-solution interface. Together with accurate experimental kinetic data for potassium ions obtained using ion-selective electrodes, a general model which can be used to describe the dissolution rate was established and used to analyze ways of improving the process rate.

文摘An ion-selective electrode(ISE)-based immunoassay has been innovatively designed for the sensitive detection of liver cancer biomarker(alpha-fetoprotein,AFP),using metal sulfide quantum dot(QD)-based nano labels.Cd S QDs-aggregated PAMAM dendrimer(QD-DE)was first synthesized and functionalized with polyclonal rabbit anti-human AFP antibodies.Thereafter,a sandwich immunoreaction was implemented on monoclonal mouse anti-human AFP antibody-coated microplate by using antibody-functionalized QD-DE as the secondary antibody.Accompanying the immunocomplex,subsequent potentiometric detection of cadmium ion dissolved from the QD-DE under acidic condition was conducted on a portable cadmium ion-selective electrode(Cd-ISE).Results revealed that the electrode potential of the Cd-ISE increased with the increment of AFP concentration from 0.1 to 100 ng m L^(-1)at a detection limit(LOD)of 68 pg m L^(-1).The relative standard deviations(RSD)were below9.09%and 10.54%for the intra-and inter-assay,respectively.Additionally,six human serum specimens were determined on CdISE-based immunosensor by using commercial human AFP ELISA kit as the reference,and gave good relationship between two methods.Importantly,Cd-ISE-based immunoassay offers the promise for simple and cost-effective screening of disease-related biomarkers.

文摘Fast migration and efficient spatial separation of photogenerated charges in photocatalytic materials are indispensable to efficient solar water splitting reactions.Here,we construct a three-phase heterostructure of CdS/PbTiO_(3)/TiO_(2)by selectively depositing CdS and TiO_(2)at oppositely poled crystal facets of PbTiO_(3)using single-domain ferroelectric PbTiO_(3).The heterostructure has matching band edge alignments and strong interfacial connections at different moieties.The heterostructure combines the interfacial electrical and ferroelectric fields because of their peculiar microstructures,which provide a strong driving force throughout the whole bulk to separate photogenerated charges.Almost two orders of magnitude improvement of visible-light-driven photocatalytic H_(2) production has been realized in CdS/PbTiO_(3)/TiO_(2)compared with bare PbTiO_(3)/TiO_(2),showing the efficiency of charge separation in the heterostructure.The idea of combining ferroelectrics with potential light capture semiconductor provides a paradigm to accurately design charge migration pathways,bringing a step closer to efficient solar water splitting.
