Application


  • An Analytical Method for Determination of Total Iron in Pharmaceutical-grade Intravenous Iron Colloidal Complexes by Redox-Potentiometry.: This study details a method for determining total iron content in pharmaceutical-grade intravenous iron colloidal complexes using redox-potentiometry. Sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate is utilized in the redox reaction to accurately quantify iron levels. (Kamisetty et al., 2023).

  • New Fluorescent Nanosensor for Determination of Diazepam Using Molecularly Imprinted Mn-doped ZnS Quantum Dots.: This research introduces a new fluorescent nanosensor for detecting diazepam, employing molecularly imprinted Mn-doped ZnS quantum dots. Sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate is used in the synthesis of these quantum dots. (Samadi-Maybodi et al., 2022).

  • Debugging periodate oxidation of cellulose: Why following the common protocol of quenching excess periodate with glycol is a bad idea.: This paper addresses the issues in periodate oxidation of cellulose and suggests alternatives to glycol for quenching excess periodate, including the use of sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate as an efficient quenching agent. (Simon et al., 2023).

  • The effect of sodium thiosulfate on immune cell metabolism during porcine hemorrhage and resuscitation.: Investigates the impact of sodium thiosulfate on immune cell metabolism in a porcine model of hemorrhage and resuscitation, highlighting its potential therapeutic benefits. (Wolfschmitt et al., 2023).

  • Green sulfidated iron oxide nanocomposites for efficient removal of Malachite Green and Rhodamine B from aqueous solution.: This study presents the synthesis of green sulfidated iron oxide nanocomposites using sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate, demonstrating their efficacy in removing dyes like Malachite Green and Rhodamine B from aqueous solutions. (Guo et al., 2022).
