In this study a new magnetic nanocomposite of PEI on magnetized Sawdust (SD/MNP/PEI) was prepared. Investigations were conducted to study the adsorption behavior of heavy metal Zn (II) on the SD/MNP/PEI nanocomposite in aqueous medium by varying parameters such as contact time, pH, and initial metal concentration. Zn (II) adsorption was broadly dependent of pH. Isotherm data demonstrate that the Langmuir adsorption model was the best-suited model for this study. The results confirmed the good adsorption capacity of the new magnetic nanocomposite for the removal of Zn (II) from aqueous solutions and its great potential for practical applications.

In order to monitor the trough level of the drug, sensitive analytical methods are in demand.Therefore, for detection of trace levels of this drug, the trend solvent bar microextraction method coupled with HPLC-UV were implemented. Application of pH gradient of 10.3 and 3.0 (donor and acceptor phase, respectively) enabled preconcentration and microextraction of the target analyte. The results were modeled using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) successfully.The optimum results were obtained with a stirring rate of 365 rpm and salt addition by 15.1% at 25°C after 26 min. The limit of detection and quantification were 7.0 ng mL-1and 20 ng mL-1, respectively. It offered good linearity range of 20-5000 ng mL-1 with a coefficient of estimation higher than 0.9972 and a preconcentration factor of 112. The relative standard deviations of analysis were 4.6% within a day (n=3) and 6.2% between days (n=9).Overall, this method can be employed for several purposes such as for dosage adjustment in ADHD patients, clean validation in the pharmaceutical industry, and for trace determination in forensics.

Newly prepared compounds have been characterized by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, IR and UV–VIS spectroscopy techniques. The spectral studies confirmed the ligand coordinates the metal ion to form complex via the oxygen and nitrogen atoms of the phenolic group and azomethine group. The antioxidant activity of the ligand and its complexes were determined by DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl) method in vitro. The obtained IC50 value of the DPPH activity for the copper complex (IC50 = 55.30 mg/ml) was higher than other compounds. Furthermore, the antimicrobial effects of the tested compounds have been tested against the bacterial species, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus cereus by Disc diffusion and Micro-broth dilution methods. It has been found that the Cu complex has more effective against Bacillus cereus and the Cd complex showed the best antibacterial activity against the Staphylococcus aureus. Manuscript profile -

Parameters including sample pH, concentration of the complexingagent, volume of extraction solvent, extraction time and aeration time were screened by a Plackett–Burman design and optimal conditions were obtained using a Box-Behnken design. At optimum conditions, the limit of detection and relative standard deviation (n=7, C=20 µg L−1) were 0.16 µg L-1 and 1.39%, respectively. Furthermore, a linear dynamic range of 0.5-80 µg L−1and enrichment factor of 152 were obtained. The accuracy of the method was evaluatedusing the analysis of certified reference material. Finally, the proposed techniquewas successfullyusedfor the determination of trace amounts of cadmium (II) in water and cereal samples. Manuscript profile -

Modification of electrodes surfaces is an excellent way to decrease the overpotentials as well as to increase the current density of the voltammetric response.pt as most efficient metal catalyst can easily be poisoned by product of oxidation and also it has high cost. In this work an efficient and low cost electrocatalytic system for electrochemical oxidation of formaldehyde in alkaline solution is introduced. For preparation of this modified electrode, copolymeric film on the surface of carbon paste electrode was formed by successive potential cycling in solution containing o-aminophenol and aniline as monomer and Triton X-100 as a surfactant. Ni(II) ions were incorporated into the electrode surface by immersion of the copolymeric modified electrode in 0.1 M Ni(II) ion solution. The influences of different parameters such as mol ratio of monomers in copolymer formation and the number of potential cycling for copolymer formation on electrocatalytic ability of the modified electrode for formaldehyde oxidation have been investigated and optimized.Results show that modified electrode with copolymeric films, show higher catalytic effect for formaldehyde oxidation respect to pure homopolymers (polyaniline or poly(o-aminophenol)). Also addition of Triton -X100 in electropolymerization step, considerably increased catalytic ability of the modified electrode for formaldehyde oxidation. This modified electrode displays a highly efficient electrocatalytic activity toward oxidation of formaldehyde. The current density of 11 mA cm-2 is greater than most of the previously reported electrodes. Manuscript profile -
