The stripping voltammetric behaviour of Ioxynil and 2-methyl-3-nitroaniline has been studied by means of a C(18) modified carbon paste electrode. The analytes are preconcentrated under open-circuit conditions (Ioxynil at pH 3.9; 2-methyl-3-nitroaniline at pH 10). For the determination of Ioxynil

Inhibition studies were used to investigate the identity of the microsomal enzyme(s) responsible for the NADPH-dependent N-hydroxylation of 2-amino-6-nitrotoluene. The N-hydroxylation reaction was inhibited by several cytochrome P-450 inhibitors as well as by methimazole, a substrate for flavin-containing monooxygenase. Heat

Polyimide-based materials provide attractive chemistries for the development of gas-separation membranes. Modification of inter- and intra-chain interactions is a route to improve the separation performance. In this work, copolyimides with Tröger's base (TB) monomers are designed and synthesized. In particular
