Aluminium. 25.0 mL aluminium ion solution, acidified with a few drops of 2.5M nitric add (to pH 1-2), boiled for 1 minute, 50.0 mL 0.05M EDTA added to hot solution, solution cooled, 50 mL acetate buffer and 1 drop of 0.0025 M mercury-EDTA added, excess of EDTA back-titrated with standard zinc ion solution. 

Kresge and Chiang480 measured the rate coefficients for detritiation of [1-3H]-2,4,6-trimethoxybenzene in acetate buffers and found the first-order rate coefficient (lO7 ) to increase from 2.5 at 0.01 M acetic acid to 8.3 at 0.1 M acetic acid, whereas if the reaction was specific acid-catalysed no change in rate should have been observed. A similar technique to that described above for separation of the rate coefficients due to hydronium ions and other acids was used, the values for the former being obtained using dilute hydrochloric acid at which acidities no undissociated acid was present (Table 131). Rate coefficients were then measured... 

Fletsch and Richards [51] determined fluoride in seawater spectrophotometri-cally as the cerium alizarin complex. The cerium alizarin complex and chelate was formed in 20% aqueous acetone at pH 4.35 (sodium acetate buffer) and, after 20-60 min, the extinction measured at 625 nm (2.5 cm cell) against water. The calibration graph was rectilinear for 8-200 ig/l fluoride the mean standard deviation was 10 xg/l at a concentration of 1100 ig/l fluoride. 

The oxidation of glycolaldehyde by tetrachloroaurate was carried out in acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer and found to be first order in [Au(III)] and [glycolaldehyde]. H+ and Cr both retarded the reaction. A compatible mechanism was proposed, which involves a one-step, rate-determining, two-electron transfer and the involvement of three gold species, AuCH, AuClsCOHa), and AuClsCOH), the last being the most active. 

With respect to photoinitiation, generally, it is important to be very careful in one s choice of sensitizers. For example, attempts to initiate the cyclization of homobenzylic ethers failed if 1,4-dicyanobenzene was used as a sensitizer. Rapid regeneration of the starting material by back-electron transfer from the dicyanobenzene anion-radical to the substrate cation-radical was the cause of cyclization inefficiency. To slow this unproductive process, a mixture of A-methylquinolinium hexafluorophosphate (sensitizer), solid sodium acetate (buffer), and tert-butylbenzene (cosensitizer) in 1,2-dichloroethane was employed. This dramatically increased the efficiency of the reaction, providing cyclic product yields of more than 90% in only 20 min (Kumar and Floreancig 2001, Floreancig 2007). 

They found that a Cu electrode, pretreated by immersing it in a 0.1M BTA solution for 15 seconds, inhibited the 0 reduction reaction initially and that on subsequent cycles the currents Increased to that of bare Cu in a short time. A similar effect was observed when a Cu electrode was cycled in a ImM solution of BTA. They discovered that a solution of 0.1M BTA produced a lasting effect, indicating that a reservoir of BTA is necessary for continuous protection of the copper against corrosion. We found that bare Cu gives the same voltammogram in the 0 reduction region in both acetate buffer and phosphate buffer therefore, McCrory-Joy et. al. s results can be directly compared to the results reported here. 

SPE methods with different cartridge packings have been employed for the pre-concentration and clean up of sulfonated azo dyes from waters and soil extracts [110,111], The extraction of solid samples has been carried ont by sonication or Soxhlet extraction and the extracts treated like the water samples. C18 cartridges and columns [111] were used followed by the elution with aqueous organic solvents in the presence of TEA with recovery yields always greater than 65% [93,111], Higher recoveries have been obtained by using C18 columns, pre-conditioned with an ammonium acetate buffer and elnted with methanol [111], The use of styrene-divinylbenzene [93,112], as well as of cross-linked polymeric sorbents with sulfonate functions, was shown to be suitable in the SPE of the more polar componnds [111],... 

According to some recent literature, typical conditions for biogenic amine determination are precolumn derivatization with Dnsl-Cl followed by separation on C8 or C18 column with gradient elution with mobile phases consisting of water or phosphate buffer and acetonitrile (or methanol) or postcolumn derivatization with OPA and gradient elution with mixtures of sodium acetate buffer and methanol (or acetonitrile). In the latter case, a counterion (such as hexanesulfonic or octansulfonic acid) is usually added in the mobile phase. 

Since the 1970s numerous HPLC methods using lEC, RP and ion-pair chromatography have been proposed. In the last years, RP chromatography has become the most used method, thanks to its simplicity, sensitivity, and compatibility with different detection techniques. The stationary phases usually used are C18 or phenyl-bonded silica-based phases. More recently, alternative stationary phases, such as polar-embedded, polar endcapped, and perfluorinated phases, have been successfully tested for folate analysis [577]. The mobile phase is usually a mixture of phosphate or acetate buffer and acetonitrile or methanol. 

Eu(III) The loading effect on the distribution coefficient of Eu(III) on the Na form of montmorillonite for both acetate-buffered and unbuffered solutions is shown in Figure 4. The P s are fairly constant in the low loading range. We shall comment later on the differences in presence and absence of buffer. 

Eu(III) Figure 11 summarizes the adsorption of Eu(III) on the Na form of Wyoming montmorillonite at pH 5, controlled with 0.01 M acetate buffer, and adjusted to the same acidity without buffer by HCl. The values of Pg in the presence of acetate are about a third of those without, a difference similar to that seen in the loading curve. Figure 4. Formation of Eu(III) acetate complexes, presumably the source of the differences, has been reported elsewhere (21).

Gradient systems let you control flow rate and solvent/buffer changes to improve chromatographic separations. They can be used to sharpen separations and to speed column re-equilibration. A four-solvent gradient system is useful for methods development when equipped with methanol, acetonitrile, ammonium acetate buffer, and formic acid solution. But, many quality control laboratories prefer to use inexpensive isocratic systems that run a constant-composition premixed mobile phase for rapid separations. 

A good stability of the GFPuv molecule was observed (9) to start at pH about 5.0-5.2. This corresponds to our findings on the minimum thermal GFPuv stability that was shown at pH 4.91, referent to acetate buffer and treatment at 85°C, very close to the pi of the protein, which was verified (13) between pH 4.7 and 5.1, corresponding to our finding on GFPuv extraction efficiency. 

A flow-injection method was reported for simultaneous determination of spironolactone and hydrochlorothiazide [60]. Samples are injected into a carrier stream of pH 5 acetate buffer, and spectra recorded from 220 - 350 nm at 1-second intervals and at an integration time of 0.4 seconds [60]. 

The most sensitive method for CVAA has recently been reported by Wooten et al. (39) using solid-phase microextraction to concentrate the derivatized analyte. Urine, with added ammonium acetate buffer and PhAsO as an internal standard, was derivatized directly with 1,3-propanedithiol and the derivative concentrated on a poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) solid-phase microextraction (SPME) fiber. Analysis was by automated GC/MS using SIM of the isotopic MH+ ions. An impressive detection limit of 7.4pg/ml was reported, using a benchtop GC/MS system. The method was validated using spiked human urine.
