Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the Cu system, Cu foils with a thickness of 171 μm (Online Metals) were used as the cathode and anode electrodes and were embedded into the side channels. The Cu electrode had a surface area of 3.42 × 10−3 cm2. The electrode edges were polished by 6000 grit sandpaper (Micro-Surface Finishing Products). Electrolytes containing 0.02, 0.1, and 0.2 M CuSO4 were prepared using CuSO4 · 5H2O (Avantor Performance Materials), dissolved in deionized (DI) water. The electrochemical deposition for Cu was conducted for 60 s, under the applied voltage of 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, and 3.0 V, respectively. The Cu electrochemical deposition at constant current density was performed for 200 s. For the streamline tracking, the electrolyte solution was seeded with 1-μm negative carboxylate microspheres (Polysciences) and monitored under constant current density for 110 s. A nonionic surfactant (0.1 weight %), Tween 20, was added to the solution to avoid particle aggregation. The final particle concentration of the applied electrolyte solution was 6.83 × 107 particles/ml.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The biosorption of Zn(II) and Cu(II) ions by Fucus vesiculosus was carried out in a stirred tank reactor (Biotron LiFlus LiFlus GX) at room temperature for 2 hours (3 grams of the biomass were mixed with 3 L of metal ions solution). The content of the biomass in the solution was 1 g of dry mass (d.m.) L -1 according to previous studies (Michalak and Chojnacka, 2010) . The stock solution of Zn(II) and Cu(II) ions (300 mg L -1 ) was prepared by dissolving appropriate amounts of ZnSO4•7H2O and CuSO4•5H2O (Avantor Performance Materials Poland S.A.) in distilled water. pH of initial solutions was adjusted to 5 with 0.1 M HCl or/and NaOH (with the use of pH meter Mettler Toledo equipped with an electrode InLab413 with compensation of temperature, SevenMulti, Switzerland). The solution was then filtered using Whatman No.1 filter paper and the concentration of metal ions in the solution before and after biosorption was determined by ICP-OES (Inductively Coupled Plasma-Optical Emission Spectrometry). The biosorption capacity (calculated as a difference of metal ions concentration in the solution before and after biosorption process) of Fucus vesiculosus towards Cu(II) ions was 45.0 mg g -1 of d.m. and Zn(II) ions -10.3 mg g -1 . The obtained enriched biomass was air-dried and used later in germination tests as a fertilizing material.

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.
