We report on the exploitation of metal-organic coordination polymers (MOCPs) as new and efficient matrixes to immobilize enzymes for amperometric biosensing of glucose or phenols. A ligand, 2,5-dimercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazole (DMcT), two metallic salts, NaAuCl(4) and Na(2)PtCl(6), and two enzymes, glucose oxidase
Industrial lubricants are usually made of petroleum and contain no water. Industrial greases and neat oils (insoluble metalworking oils) cause contact allergy relatively seldom, and reported allergies to the components of engine oils, such as hydraulic oils, are extremely scarce.
A rapid, high capacity assay for the binding of basic fibroblast growth factor has been developed. Rat lung tissue was selected as the optimum source of membranes and 2M sodium chloride used to remove endogenous growth factor. The assay has

A simple spectrophotometric method is presented for the rapid determination of copper at a trace level using 2,5-dimercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazole (DMTD) as a new spectrophotometric reagent. The method is based on the reaction of non-absorbent DMTD in a slightly acidic (0.002-0.014 mol

The redox reactions of DMcT at PEDOT-modified glassy carbon electrodes (GCEs) in acetonitrile (AN) have been investigated via cyclic voltammetry (CV) and the electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) in order to elucidate the redox reaction mechanism. A redox couple at
Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
