Flow-injection spectrophotometric determination of amino acids based on an immobilised copper(II) -zincon system
1993
Abstract The flow-injection spectrophotometric determination of different amino acids was carried out by reaction with copper(II) ions entrapped in a polymeric material and filling a packed-bed reactor; the released copper(II), complexed with the amino acid, reacted with zincon in a basic medium producing a blue colour that was monitored at 600 nm. The method was applied to determine the contents of different amino acids in pharmaceutical formulations. The calibration graph for glycine was linear over the range 0.5–20 μg ml −1 with a relative standard deviation of 0.8% ( n = 6) at 10 μg ml −1 and a sample throughput of 108 h −1 .
Calorimetric investigation of the complex formation between surfactants and α-, β- and γ-cyclodextrins
1992
Abstract A calorimetric technique has been used to study complex formation between α-, β- and γ-cyclodextrins (αCD, βCD and γCD) and some surfactants (sodium dodecylsulphate (SDS), hexadecyl trimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and p-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl) phenoxypoly(oxyethyleneglycol) (Triton X-100)). The experimental data indicate that some complexes (SDS-αCD, SDS-βCD and CTAB-αCD) are very stable and allow direct determination of their stoichiometry and molar enthalpy of complex formation. Those for other complexes closely fit a model based on an equilibrium reaction between surfactant, cyclodextrin and a single complex. According to the model, data analysis allows determination of the …
Effect of traditional, microwave and industrial cooking on inositol phosphate content in beans, chickpeas and lentils
2003
An high-performance liquid chromatography method for determining inositol phosphate fractions was adapted to legumes. The validity of the method was assessed by estimating the following analytical parameters: linearity (linear response between 125 and 5000 microg inositol hexaphosphate (IP(6))/ml); instrumental precision and method precision (relative standard deviation, %) were 1.9% (IP(6)) for instrumental, and 2.5% (IP(6)) and 8.2% (IP(5)) for method precision. An accuracy was estimated by percentage recovery (72 +/- 3%). The application of this method to raw, conventional, microwave-cooked and ready-to-eat beans, chickpeas and lentils gave IP(6) contents ranging from 0.63 g/100 g dry ma…
Hydrogen bonds in unpolar matrix — Comparison of complexation in polymeric and low molecular-weight systems
1991
By ene-reaction of 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione with double bonds, polar 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazolidine-3,5-dione (phenyl urazole) groups are introduced into unpolar matrices. Hydrogen-bond complexes are formed between two amide-like units. The temperature dependence of complex formation in dilute hydrocarbon medium is obtained from remperature-dependent IR spectra in the region of the C=O stretching vibration. Results obtained for a low molecular-weight model system are compared with modified polybutadienes, where the groups are attached statistically along the polymer backbone. The enthalpy and the entropy of complex formation (ΔH f =−28.6 kJ/mol; ΔS f =−52 J/mol K−1) obtained for the…
On the determination of underivatised fatty alcohol ethoxylates by electrospray ionisation–mass spectrometry
2006
Abstract The oligomers of fatty alcohol ethoxylates (FAEs) exhibit large sensitivity differences in mass spectrometry with electrospray ionisation (ESI–MS) and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI). Standards of the oligomers from m = 1 to 7 ethylene oxide units (EOs) and linear alkyl chains from n = 10 to 18 carbon atoms were infused to examine the relative sensitivities or response factors in several media. The response factors of the [M + H]+ and [M + Na]+ peaks in 9:1 acetonitrile/water and methanol/water media containing acid buffers increased following irregular patterns when n and m increased. In methanol/water the response factors depended on the parity of m, being larger …
ChemInform Abstract: Pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine Derivatives as COX-2 Selective Inhibitors: Synthesis and Molecular Modelling Studies.
2009
The pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine system shows a multitude of interesting pharmacological properties. Owing to the potential anti-inflammatory activity of 5-benzamido-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-one derivatives and considering the easy synthesis of this class of compounds, a set of new 5-benzamido-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-ones has been prepared in 42-80% yields by reacting 5-aminopyrazole-4(N-benzoyl)carbohydrazide derivatives and the opportune triethylorthoesters. Compounds 8a, b, 10a-d, and 11a, b revealed a superior inhibitory profile against COX-2, when compared to that of reference standards NS398 and indomethacin. Molecular modelling studies confirmed the obtained biological results.

H-Point Standard Addition Method Applied to Voltammetry of Microparticles. Quantitation of Dyes in Pictorial Samples
2007
A solid-state electrochemical application of the H-point standard addition method (HPSAM) for quantifying two electroactive compounds, A, B, that produce strongly overlapped voltammetric peaks is described. It is based on peak current measurement in square-wave voltammograms recorded for solid samples containing a reference compound R, upon additions of a A- (or B-) containing standard compound. The method allows to the determination of the mass fraction of A and B by applying the H-point standard addition method to solid state voltammetry. The quotients between the currents measured at two selected potentials and the peak current of R vary linearly with the mass ratio of the added standard…

Changes in the standard of living of chosen countries that joined the European Union after 2004
2018
W artykule poruszona została problematyka zmian poziomu życia w państwach członkowskich Unii Europejskiej, które przystąpiły do struktur unijnych po 2004 r. Podjęta została próba uchwycenia oddziaływania polityki UE na wyrównywanie poziomu życia w państwach członkowskich. Przyjęty w badaniu okres obejmuje lata 2004-2015. Za początek okresu badawczego przyjęty został rok 2004, ze względu na fakt, że w tym właśnie roku nastąpiło największe w historii UE rozszerzenie jej struktur. W badaniu wykorzystano metody taksonomiczne, w szczególności wskaźnik rozwoju Hellwiga jako syntetyczny miernik poziomu życia.
