    Indirect ultra-trace determination of nitrate and nitrite in food samples by in-syringe liquid microextraction and electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry

    , Article Microchemical Journal ; Volume 142 , 2018 , Pages 135-139 ; 0026265X (ISSN) Roohparvar, R ; Shamspur, T ; Mostafavi, A ; Bagheri, H ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    A simple and rapid method for simultaneous separation and preconcentration of ultra-trace amounts of nitrate and nitrite using in-syringe liquid microextraction is developed. The extraction procedure is based on the selective ion-pairing complex formation of nitrate and nitrite with Cu(I)-neocuproine in 100 μL of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate as an extracting phase within a syringe. The atomic-absorption signal of copper in the ionic liquid layer is proportional to the nitrate and nitrite concentrations. When barbituric acid is used, nitrite is converted into violuric acid and thus it is removed from the environment. In this case, the selectivity of the modified-ligand is... 

    Room temperature catalytic aromatization of Hantzsch 1,4-dihydropyridines by sodium nitrite in the presence of acidic silica gel

    Colorimetric Sensing of Nitrite and Glutathione Based on Morphological Changes of High Aspect Ratio of Gold Nanorods

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Fahimi - Kashani, Nafiseh (Author) ; Hormozi Nezhad, Mohammad Reza (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The fascinating size-dependent properties of noble metal nanop articles have created a great promise for their use in a different applications specially chemical sensing. Gold nanorods (GNRs), specifically, have received a great deal of attention due to their unusual optical properties. The nanoscale confinement of electrons on the surface of gold nanorods grants them aspect ratio-dependent properties not seen in larger particles. Due to the intriguing properties of GNRs, significant work has gone into the application of nanorods for sensing and detection of various an alytes in biological and other systems. The major modalities which have been developed for... 

    Sensitive Detection and Quantification of Nitrite Ions by Metal-organic Frameworks/Gold Nanocomposites

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Mahdavi, Hossein (Author) ; Simchi, Abdoolreza (Supervisor) ; Tamjid Shabestari, Elnaz (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Nitrite (〖NO〗_2^-) anions are ubiquitous within the physiological, industrial, environmental, and food industries. The potential toxicity risk of these inorganic compounds has well been recognized; thus, the precise detection of these ions by developing reliable and high-throughput analytical methods is crucial for health and environment security. In this study, we present a reagentless electrochemical biosensor using cobalt-based metal-organic frameworks (ZIF-67) and gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) for determination of nitrite ions. The developed biosensor provides the advantages of MOF properties including high surface area, hierarchical porosity, and tunable functionalities along with high... 

    Effect of inhibitors on the corrosion of automotive aluminum alloy in ethylene glycol-water mixture

    , Article Corrosion ; Volume 67, Issue 12 , 2011 ; 00109312 (ISSN) Asadikiya, M ; Ghorbani, M ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    The effect of some inhibitors consisting of sodium nitrite (NaNO 2), sodium nitrate (NaNO 3), sodium molybdate (Na 2MoO 4), and sodium silicate (Na 2SiO 3) on the corrosion behavior of aluminum alloy 3303 (UNS A93303) in a water and ethylene glycol (C 2H 6O 2) mixture was investigated. In the first part, the tests were established without any galvanic coupling. In the second part, the tests were established with galvanic connections between the aluminum alloy and mild steel, stainless steel, copper, brass, and solder. Results show that the best corrosion inhibitor in both situations is sodium nitrate, according to its abilities to reduce corrosion rate, passivate the aluminum surface, and... 

    Characterization of ionic composition of TSP and PM10 during the Middle Eastern Dust (MED) storms in Ahvaz, Iran

    Abstract
    Because of the recent frequent observations of major dust storms in southwestern cities in Iran such as Ahvaz, and the importance of the ionic composition of particulate matters regarding their health effects, source apportionment, etc., the present work was conducted aiming at characterizing the ionic composition of total suspended particles (TSP) and particles on the order of ∼10 μm or less (PM10) during dust storms in Ahvaz in April-September 2010. TSP and PM10 samples were collected and their ionic compositions were determined using an ion chromatography. Mean concentrations of TSP and PM10 were 1,481.5 and 1,072.9 μg/m 3, respectively. Particle concentrations during the Middle Eastern...
