These solutions have been examined in sedimentation velocity runs on the analytical ultracentrifuge (31). Beyond 0.5 base equivalent per mole of iron a fairly narrow sedimentation peak developed. The sedimentation coefficient, 7 1 S, was essentially constant up to 2.5 base equivalents per mole of iron, although the area under the peak increased with increasing degree of hydrolysis. Apparently, then, hydrolysis of ferric nitrate beyond the reversible equilibrium region produces increasing amounts of a fairly discrete high polymer whose size is constant.

Visual evidence and timing of sediment peaks indicate that some portion of discharging sediments is allogenic. The colored fibers and organic matter are both clearly allogenic. Sediment samples collected from Barton Springs have an organic...

The appearance of slow and fast sedimentation peaks at a narrower interval of pH (ApH=0.2) change is the result of PEC particle destruction into the individual macromolecules. The structure of PEC composed of polyampholyte and polyelectrolyte can be represented as double-strand sequences of pairs formed with the help of cooperative systems of ionic and hydrogen bonds. Probably near the lEP, some acidic and basic groups of polyampholytes displaced on loops begin to interact with each other cooperatively with the formation of intramolecular complexes. The mechanism of PEC destruction can be represented as follows ... 

By experimentally determining the ratio of abundances of C and isotope peaks for CO2 dissolved in sea water at various temperatures, a graph can be drawn relating the solubility of CO2 compared with that of CO2 (the ratio described above). On extracting the CO2 from sediment containing the shells (calcium carbonate) of dead sea creatures by addition of acid, a ratio (R) of abundances of CO2 to CO2 can be measured. If this value is read from the graph, a temperature T is extrapolated, indicating the temperature of the sea at the time the sediment was laid down. Such experiments have shown that 10,000 years ago the temperature of the Mediterranean was much as it is now.

Numbers above peaks are approximate sedimentation coefficients in Svedberg units, S. Molecular weight ranges for the fractions are 2S, 8,000—50,000 7S, 100,000—180,000 IIS, 300,000—350,000 and 15S, 600,000—700,000 (9). The 15S fraction is a dimer of the IIS protein (10).

HPLC method with amperometric detection was applied for detenuination of phenols in sea sediment and some dmg preparation. Peaks of phenol, guaiacol, cresols, hydroquinon and resorcinol were identified on chromatogram of birch tai. The HPLC method with electrochemical detectors was used for detenuination of some drug prepai ation of aminophenol derivate. So p-acetaminophenol (paracetamol) was determined in some drug.

For Pond 3513, the cycle of 2 3 8U and 239,2 °pu concentrations in water (filtered with a 0.22y membrane) is out of phase with the cycle of plutonium concentrations in Lake Michigan. In this shallow pond, the concentrations of the two actinides peak in summer and decline in winter. An explanation for this cycle of plutonium is that photosynthetic activity depletes dissolved CO2 which results in an increase in pH and this in turn shifts the oxidation state in favor of Pu(V) which is desorbed from the sediments(26).

Famoxadone, IN-JS940, and IN-KZ007 residues are measured in soil (p-g kg ), sediment (p-gkg ), and water (pgL ). Quantification is based on analyte response in calibration standards and sample extract analyses determined as pg mL Calibration standard runs are analyzed before and after every 1 samples in each analytical set. Analyte quantification is based on (1) linear regression analysis of (y-axis) analyte concentration (lagmL Q and (x-axis) analyte peak area response or (2) the average response factor determined from the appropriate calibration standards. The SLOPE and INTERCEPT functions of Microsoft Excel are used to determine slope and intercept. The AVERAGE and STDEV functions of Microsoft Excel are used to determine average response factors and standard deviations.
