A nonflame method for atomic absorption spectroscopy is
described. A helical tungsten filament from a commercially available
6-V, 4-A light bulb, heated to :incandescence in an argon atmosphere
is used to atomize 2-μl aqueous samples for metals analyses. Studies
of two hollow cathode lamp tungsten filament orientations, a
modulated light...
The atmospheric transport of anthropogenic semivolatile organic compounds (SOCs) from Asian sources to the Western U.S. was investigated. In addition, the SOC extraction method was optimized. Hansen solubility parameter plots were used to aid in the pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) solvent selection of air sampling media in order to minimize...
Pyrolysis of 4-cycloheptene-l-methyl acetate under flow conditions at 285° gives only rearranged bicyclic acetates and hydrocarbons rather than the anticipated simple elimination product methylenecyclohept- 4-ene. These rearranged acetates have the same structures and are formed in virtually the same relative percentages as those observed in the "π- route" solvolysis of...
A comparative study was made on the effect of urea denaturation
of bovine serum albumin (BSA), polyglycyl BSA and poly-L-phenylalanyl
BSA. The denaturation process was followed by ultraviolet
spectrophotometry and optical rotation.
A blue shift in the absorption maximum at 278 mμ was observed
in urea denatured proteins, In 7M...
