Quantifying Hg2+ Binding Capacity

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A sequential inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES, OPTIMA 7000, Perkin Elmer) was employed to determine Hg2+. The dry weight of cells was calculated from the OD600 by using the value of 0.292 g dry weight per liter at an OD600 of 1.0 which was obtained in the experiment. Hg2+ binding capacity was expressed as milligram Hg2+ accumulated per gram dry weight of cells (mg/g). Hg2+ removal ratio was expressed as the percentage of Hg2+ removed from Hg2+ aqueous solution (%). XPS analysis was performed by a X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy (Microlab 350, Thermo VG).

10–20 mg dried leaf material from non-mycorrhized and mycorrhized Lotus japonicus wild-type and lys11 mutant plants were digested in 1 mL 6 M HNO3 at 90 °C with shaking (450 rpm) for 1 hour. The leaf extract was diluted to 6 ml with distilled water and filtered. All experiments were performed in three replicates and blanks (containing no samples) were simultaneously run. Phosphorous concentration was determined with a Perkin Elmer Optima 7000 (Perkin Elmer, Norwalk, Connecticut, USA) inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES). The reagents adopted were of analytical grade purity. Metal standard solutions were prepared from concentrated stock solutions (Merck Titrisol). High purity water (HPW) obtained from a Milli-Q apparatus (Millipore, Bedford, USA) was used throughout.

Soil Carbon and Mineral Analysis

The carbon (C) contents in the soil were analyzed using a Perkin-Elmer 2400 CHN elemental analyzer. The filtered (0.45 µm PTFE filter) extract was measured for DOC using a TOC/TN analyzer (multi N/C 3000, Analytik Jena AG, Germany). The pH was determined in 1∶2.5 (w/v) soil:water extracts using a pH electrode. Electrical conductivity (EC) was determined using a conductivity meter (LF91, German). The Al and Si concentrations in the soil FA extracts were measured using ICP-AES (Optima 7000, PerkinElmer, USA). Mineralogical identification was performed using X-ray powder diffraction (Nanjing Normal University). The diffraction patterns were recorded from 3 to 60° 2-theta using Ni-filtered Cu K-alpha radiation at a rate of 300 s per step on a PANalytical X-pert Pro diffractometer using an X-celerator position-sensitive detector.

Iron adsorption
was quantified by inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy,
ICP OPTIMA 7000 equipped with WinLan 32 software (Perkin-Elmer, Milan,
Italy). The ICP was equipped with a cyclonic spray chamber and a Teflon
Mira Mist nebulizer. The instrumental conditions were plasma power
1.5 kW; sample aspiration rate 15 rpm (∼2 mL min–1); argon nebulizer flow 0.6 L min–1; argon auxiliary
flow 0.2 L min–1; and argon plasma flow 15 L min–1.
The adsorption experiments were performed
starting from 50 mL of a 5.85 ppm Fe3+ aqueous solution,
the concentration of iron detected in chronic wounds in the literature.20 (link) The pH of the solutions was adjusted to 7.6
with HCl 1 M. The adsorption experiments were carried out at room
temperature by dipping 2 mg of C-Ker-film for different times ranging
from 1 to 168 h (1 week). ICP-OES analysis was performed by previously
filtering the solution with a PTFE filter (0.45 μm) and then
adding 1% v/v nitric acid (65% wt). Each concentration value was averaged
based on three measurements. ICP-OES data are expressed in μg
mg–1.

Catalyst Recycling and Characterization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The catalyst recovered after the filtration of the crude reaction mixture was washed with water (20 mL), acetone (20 mL), and methanol (20 mL), dried under vacuum at room temperature overnight and room temperature, and reused in the next runs under the same optimized reaction conditions. The conversions obtained after the recycling tests were measured by GC-MS. Catalyst structure and Pd loading were also analyzed after recycling.
The total Pd content was determined using ICP–OES with a Perkin Elmer Optima 7000 (Perkin Elmer, Norwalk, CT, USA) spectrometer via standard addition.

Assessing Magnesium and Calcium Ions Release in Phosphate Buffer Saline

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The CPC and Mg-CPCs were made into a cylinder with a diameter of 4.5 mm and a height of 6 mm by using a mold. After setting and incubate at 37°C for 24 h, the cement samples were immersed in an 8 ml phosphate buffer saline (PBS) solution (without calcium and magnesium ions, PH = 7.35) and placed in a 37°C incubator. At days 1, 3, 7, 14 and 28 after immersion, all the extracts were collected and replaced with fresh PBS. An inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometer (Perkin Elmer, Optima 7000, United States) was used to detect the concentration of Mg and Ca ions in the extracted samples. The process was repeated three times for each group of samples.

The amount of silver released from the enriched PCL-based constructs over time was monitored via inductively coupled plasma–optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) with a PerkinElmer Optima 7000 DV apparatus (PerkinElmer, Waltham, MA, USA). The instrument was equipped with a PEEK Mira Mist nebulizer, a cyclonic spray chamber, and an Echelle monochromator. A wavelength of 328.068 nm was used for Ag. Each concentration value was calculated using the external calibration method, with standard solutions prepared using the matrix matching method and considering the average value of 3 instrumental measurements.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
