Ftir And Ft-Raman Spectral Investigations On 4-Aminoquinaldine And 5-Aminoquinoline, N. Puviarasan, V. Arjunan, S. Mohan

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The FTIR spectra of 4-aminoquinaldine and 5-aminoquinoline were recorded in solid phase on a Bruker IFS 66V spectrometer in the region 4000--400 cm^{-1}. The FT-Raman spectra of these compounds were also recorded in the same instrument with a FRA 106 Raman module. The molecules under investigation are considered to have a C_{S} point group by assuming the --NH_{2} and --CH_{3} groups as point masses. All the vibrations are both IR and Raman active. The simple general valance force field (SGVFF) is adopted for both inplane and out of plane vibrations. All the frequencies are assigned in terms of fundamentals, overtones …

Determination Of ^{90}Sr Accumulation In Human Teeth, Recep Acar, Orhan Acar

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The accumulation of ^{90}Sr in decayed or exfoliated human teeth was investigated by ultra low level beta counting. Fuming nitric acid and the necessary carriers and reagents were used for dissolving the samples, and the separation and purification of ^{90}Sr. The Ca contents of samples were determined by flame atomic absorption spectrometry with Zeeman-effect background correction. A mixture of K and La used as a matrix modifier was found to be preferable for the determination of Ca in samples.

Chemically Crosslinked N-Vinyl-2-Pyrrolidone/2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate (Vp/Hema) Copolymer For The Controlled Release Of Cyclic Oligopeptide, Bashir Ahmad, Shumaila Bashir, Shams-Un Nisa, M. B. Huglin

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Crosslinked copolymers of various compositions of N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone (VP) and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) were prepared chemically in the presence of a crosslinking agent. The swelling mechanism was non-Fickian with about 86% conversion of feed composition to crosslinked copolymer. The reactivity ratios r_1 = 0.045 and r_2 = 3.07 for VP and HEMA indicate that HEMA is more reactive than VP in the reaction. Hydrophilicity, hydrophobicity and monomer composition in the copolymer controlled the drug release from the hydrogels.

A Rapid Spectrophotometric Method To Resolve A Binary Mixture Of Food Colorants (Riboflavine And Sunset Yellow), Mahmure Üstün Özgür

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A very simple and rapid spectrophotometric method using measurements at zero-crossing wavelength is described for resolving binary mixtures of riboflavine (E-101) and sunset yellow (E-110) in a powder drink. The assay procedure for E-110 and E-101 involves the extraction of the colorants from the powder drink with pH 4.5 acetate buffer, filtration, appropriate dilution, and measurement of the first derivative absorbance values (denoted as ^1D). Calibration graphs are linear up to 25.0 \mu g.mL^{-1} for E-101 and 40.0 \mu g.mL^{-1} for E-110. The sensitivity and reproducibility of the method were determined by using the synthetic mixtures in different ratios prepared …


Defect Structure And Properties Of Sr-Doped La Cr O_{3-\Delta}, Mahmoud Omari, Ilhem Chadli, Salah Belaidi Jan 2004

Defect Structure And Properties Of Sr-Doped La Cr O_{3-\Delta}, Mahmoud Omari, Ilhem Chadli, Salah Belaidi

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A defect chemical model for the behavior of acceptor-doped LaCrO_3 as a function of oxygen pressure is proposed. This is considered within the regime that corresponds to oxygen deficit oxygen. The mathematical approach allows us to calculate the oxygen partial pressure dependant properties of La_{1-x} Sr_x Cr O_{3-\delta} in the range 0.10 \le x \le 0.30. The results show that the conductivity was independent of pO_2 and was proportional to the dopant concentration at high pO_2. Therefore, under reducing conditions, the conductivity decreased exponentially with decreasing pO_2 and asymptotically approached a pO_2^{1/4} relationship. Stability regimes and compensation mechanisms at various …

Crystal Habit Modification Of Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid) Due To Solvent Effects, Ali̇ Arslantaş, Walter C. Ermler, Rahmi̇ Yazici, Di̇lhan M. Kalyon Jan 2004

Crystal Habit Modification Of Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid) Due To Solvent Effects, Ali̇ Arslantaş, Walter C. Ermler, Rahmi̇ Yazici, Di̇lhan M. Kalyon

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Crystal morphologies are predicted for vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) using attachment energy methods. The significant differences between predicted and observed morphologies when vitamin C is grown from water, isopropyl alcohol, acetone-water solution, and isopropyl alcohol-methanol solution are attributed to the effect of solvent on the growth rate of the various crystal habit faces. This effect, particularly the role of hydrogen bonding between solvent and crystal surface, is examined. Molecular modeling is combined with the results of simple experiments charting the habit shift of vitamin C as a function of the hydrogen bonding tendency of the solvent or solvent mixture. Attachment …

Anodic Stripping Voltammetric Determination Of Gold On A Polyvinylferrocene Coated Glassy Carbon Electrode, Muammer Kavanoz, Handan Gülce, Atti̇la Yildiz

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The anodic stripping voltammetric determination of gold was accomplished on a chemically modified glassy carbon electrode in a solution containing chloride ions. A modifying polymer, polyvinylferrocene, was coated by immersing the glassy carbon surface in its solution in methylene chloride followed by solvent evaporation. Tetrahalo complexes of gold, tetrachloroaurate(III) and tetrabromoaurate(III) ions, were found to be reduced to metallic gold by chemical reduction during immersion of the polymer coated electrode into the solution containing aurate(III) ions. This reaction was utilized as means of preconcentration without the need for cathodic electrolysis prior to the anodic stripping of metallic gold. The effects …

Moreover, upon heating in the presence of carboxylic acids, compounds 9a-e unexpectedly gave 1,4-dihydro-[1,2,4,5]tetrazine derivatives (11a-e).


Diffusion Effect On The Anodic Reactions Of Tungsten, Mustafa Anik, Tuba Cansizoğlu, Si̇nem Çevi̇k Jan 2004

Diffusion Effect On The Anodic Reactions Of Tungsten, Mustafa Anik, Tuba Cansizoğlu, Si̇nem Çevi̇k

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Potentiodynamic and potentiostatic polarizations, and a rotating disk electrode technique were used to study the influence of diffusion on the anodic reactions of tungsten (W) in a broad pH range (\sim 0.3--13.5) in H_3PO_4 buffered solutions. The anodic current was controlled totally by the kinetics of H^+ -assisted dissolution below pH 1 (Region A). At around pH 2.5 (Region B), in addition to the kinetics of H_2O-assisted dissolution, specimen rotation had an effect on the current. This observation was attributed mainly to the physical damage to an oxide phase by hydrodynamic effects and partly to the diffusion of surface H_2WO_4(aq) …

Effects Of Sucrose Concentration During Citric Acid Accumulation By Aspergillus Niger, Ayşegül Peksel, Cristian P. Kubicek

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A number of regulatory mechanisms are involved in increasing citric acid production under certain conditions. The accumulation of citric acid takes place under the high concentration of carbon sources. The effect of sucrose as a carbon source on the accumulation of citric acid and tyrosine phosphorylated proteins during high glycolytic conditions was investigated using Aspergillus niger ATCC 11414. When mycelia are treated by different sucrose concentrations, a protein of \sim 27 kDa becomes tyrosine phosphorylated. This tyrosine phosphorylation takes place in response to signal transduction from the extracellular milieu. A possible role of this \sim 27 kDa protein in signal …

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) enzyme was purified from sheep lenses, and the in vitro effects of dexamethasone on the enzyme's activity were investigated. Sheep lens glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase was purified 10,000-fold by using ammonium sulphate fractionation and 2',5'-ADP-Sepharose 4B affinity gel chromatography for a yield of 83.8\% and a specific activity of 7.6 EU/mg protein. Enzyme activity was determined by Beutler's method. Dexamethasone strongly inhibited the enzyme under in vitro conditions. The I_{50} value of the dexamethasone was 3.05 mM.
