Lithium, potassium and caesium-selective microelectrodes were prepared by coating the tips of preconditioned silver wires, incorporated in a flow-cell, with PVC membranes containing four different ionophores. A dicarboxamide, a 14-crown-4 carboxylic acid, benzo-18-crown-6 and di-(tert-butylbenzo)-21-crown-7 ionophores were used in the
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) represent a major concern in today's society, with more than 17.5 million deaths reported annually worldwide. Recently, five metabolites related to the gut metabolism of phospholipids were identified as promising predictive biomarker candidates for CVD. Validation of
Electromembrane extraction (EME) in small, stagnant and chip-like devices has the potential for future in-field operation. Literature briefly discuss such systems, but performance suffered from evaporative losses of sample and acceptor. To address this, the current paper reports electromembrane extraction
The new polymer inclusion membrane (PIM) with ethylenediamine-bis-acetylacetone (EDAB-acac) matrix was used for the separation of Zn(II) solutions containing non-ferrous metal ions (Co(II), Ni(II) Cu(II), Cd(II)). The effective conditions for carrying out transport studies by PIMs were determined on the
Polymer cellulose triacetate membranes doped with 1-alkylimidazole as fixed carriers were applied for the investigation of the facilitated transport of Zn(II) and Mn(II) ions from an aqueous sulphate feed phase (cM = 0.001 mol/dm³). For the polymer inclusion membranes (PIMs)
