"It is a well known fact that the presence of impurities in copper products has been a source of annoyance to the Chemist. The object of this thesis was to make myself familiar with the actions of different impurities in copper products, and the methods for the determination of Arsenic in the same"--page 1.

The 9-aminoacridine molecule is important in several different fields of chemistry. The absorption and fluorescence spectra of this compound are pH sensitive and it is this property that allowed it to be used as a pH probe in different chemical environments. The compound exhibits proton transfer reactions which are among the most fundamental of chemical reactions. The planarity of 9-aminoacridine allows it to intercalate into DNA. Intercalation is a process in which the aromatic flat surface of the intercalator inserts between adjacent base pairs of DNA The large surface area of 9-aminoacridine's fused tricyclic ring system allows strong intercalative binding …
