Extraktionschromatographische trennung der freien uroporphyrinisomere i und iii und deren simultane quantitative bestimmung
1968
Abstract Separation and simultaneous quantitative determination of the free uroporphyrin isomers I and III by means of extraction chromatography Separation and quantitative determination of the uroporphyrin isomers I and III in the acid from can be performed simultaneously in the partition system tri-n-butylphosphate/I N hydrochloric acid using columns with a large number of theoretical plates (N) = 300-450). The eluent is passed through a flow cuvette and the transmission is recorded continuously. The transmission peaks of the isomers are digitized and transformed into extinction values. By integrating the extinction peaks, the amount of the uroporphyrins can be evaluated from the correspo…
Transfer of plasmid DNA into cells with microelectroporation arrays on a chip
2000
The possibility to transfer pure DNA into bacterial cells forms the basis for the genetic engineering of the cell. Electroporation is a powerful and easy technique to introduce plasmid DNA into cells. Its drawback for use with high-throughput approaches is that with standard electroporation chambers the reactions have to carried out one after the other and the electroporation cuvettes are expensive. To obtain the possibility of high-throughput electroporation reactions Escherichia coli cells were electroinjected in parallel with different plasmids in reactions as small as 100 nl on a microstructured array of electrodes, forming hundred separate electroporation units on a chip of a square in…
Cylindrical Cuvette Light Refraction Measurements Technology to Analyse Biomedical Liquids
2015
Compact device of high sensitivity for measurement of the refractive indices for both stationary and flowing liquids has been developed. This device can be used to analyse a variety of biomedical liquids: urine, serum protein. The refractive index (RI) is determined by measuring the deviation of a laser beam passing through a cylindrical cuvette containing the test liquid. In order to significantly improve the resolution and stability of RI measurements, the repeated reflections and refractions of the light beam travelling through the cylindrical cuvette are employed.
A New Method for Measuring the Oxygen Content in Microliter Samples of Gases and Liquids: The Oxygen Cuvette
1978
Gas analytical processes for the determination of oxygen content or concentration are based partly on physical principles (e.g. mass spectrometry, gas chromatography, paramagnetic methods) and partly on chemical methods (e.g. gasometric, titrimetric, electrochemical or photometric methods).
A field methodology to study effects of UV radiation on fish larvae.
2003
There is a considerable lack of in situ specific information about the effects of UV-B radiation on limnic animals studied in the field. We exposed larval pike (Esox lucius L.) in two types of cuvettes (glass and quartz) placed at different depths (5 or 15 cm) to natural solar UV or to artificially enhanced UV-B (lamps on 3 h per day), simulating the scenarios for coming decades. Dose realism and comparability with earlier laboratory experiments was the main purpose, and therefore UV-B irradiances to the surface as well as underwater irradiances were directly measured. Result showed that UV-B dose rates in natural waters are low even though DOC concentration was low (4.8 mg/l) in our study …
Determination of scattering in intraocular lenses by spectrophotometric measurements.
2014
This study presents a method for measuring scattering in explanted intraocular lenses (IOLs). Currently, determining scattering in IOLs is usually performed by Scheimpflug cameras and the results are expressed in the units used by this apparatus. The method we propose uses a spectrophotometer and this makes it possible to measure the total transmission of the IOL by using an integrating sphere; the direct transmission is determined by the double-beam mode. The difference between these two transmissions gives a value of the scattering in percentage values of light lost. In addition, by obtaining the spectral transmission curve, information about the most scattered wavelengths is also obtaine…

Thermal inactivation at high temperatures and regeneration of green asparagus peroxidase
2019
A spectrophotometric method was developed for determining the peroxidase activity of green asparagus in small samples. The optimum conditions for the analysis in the cuvette were 45 mM of H2O2 36 mM of guaiacol, and pH 7. The method can be used to determine enzyme activity at up to two decimal reductions. A study was performed of the regeneration and inactivation kinetics of the enzyme when heated between 90 and 125°C. Regenerated asparagus peroxidase reached its maximum activity after being stored 6 days at 25°C. The regenerated enzyme followed first-order inactivation kinetics, showing an Ea = 13.62 kcal/mol and k100°C = 2.07 min-1.
