The observed changes in the UV spectra of investigated acids confirmed that the protonation process in perchloric acid with concentration from 5 to 10 mol/dm 3 occurred. Glutaconic acid be- haved as weak organic base in perchloric acid media and existed in its monoprotonated form. On the other hand, citraconic acid existed in its protonated form and as protonated anhydride at higher perchloric acid concentra- tion. Using the absorbance data the thermodynamic dissociation constants were calculated applying the methods of Yates and McClelland, Bunnett and Olsen, and the “excess acidity” function method. The solvatation parame- ters m, m* and φφφ were evaluated, as well. In order to correct the medium effect the method of characteristic vector analysis was applied. The possible site where the protonation may take place was discussed using the partial atomic charge values determined according to AM1 and PM3 semiempirical methods.

Adherence to this standard is voluntary and does not necessarily assure a successful medical outcome. This standard should not be considered inclusive of all proper procedures and tests or exclusive of other procedures and tests that are reasonably directed to obtaining the same results. In determining the propriety of any specific procedure or test, the clinical laboratory geneticist should apply his or her own professional judgment to the specific circumstances presented by the individual patient or specimen. Clinical laboratory geneticists are encouraged to document in the patient’s record the rationale for the use of a particular procedure or test, whether or not it is in conformance with this standard. They also are advised to take notice of the date any articular standard was adopted, and to consider other relevant medical and scientific information that becomes available after that date. It also would be prudent to consider whether intellectual property interests may restrict the performance of certain tests and other procedures. Organic acid analysis detects accumulation of organic acids in urine guidance for laboratory practices in organic acid analysis, and other body fluids and is a crucial first-tier laboratory test for a interpretation, and reporting.

  • The Effect of Organic Acids on Base Cation Leaching from the Forest ¯Oor Under Six North American Tree Species

We investigated the effect of organic acids on base cation leaching from the forest ¯oor under six common North American tree species. Forest ¯oor samples were analysed for exchangeable cations and forest ¯oor solutions for cations, anions, simple organic acids and acidic properties. Citric and lactic acid were the most common of the acids under all species. Malonic acid was found mainly under Tsuga canadensis (hemlock) and Fagus grandifolia (beech). The organic acids were positively correlated with dissolved organic carbon and contributed signi®cantly to the organic acidity of the solution (up to 26%). Forest ¯oor solutions under Tsuga canadensis contained the most dissolved C and the most weak acidity among the six tree species. Under Tsuga canadensis we also found signi®cant amounts of strong acidity caused by deposition of sulphuric acid from the atmosphere and by strong organic acids. Base cation exchange was the most important mechanism by which acidity was neutralized.

Received: 8 June 2017; Accepted: 29 June 2017; Published: 7 July 2017 Abstract: Superbases have shown high performance as catalysts in the chemical fixation of CO2 to epoxides. The proposed reaction mechanism typically assumes the formation of a superbase, the CO2 adduct as the intermediate, most likely because of the well-known affinity between superbases and CO2, i.e., superbases have actually proven quite effective for CO2 absorption. In this latter use, concerns about the chemical stability upon successive absorption-desorption cycles also merits attention when using superbases as catalysts. In this work, 1H NMR spectroscopy was used to get further insights about (1) whether a superbase, the CO2 adduct, is formed as an intermediate and (2) the chemical stability of the catalyst after reaction.

  • Organic Acid Spray SOP
    Organic Acid Spray SOP There are three common types of organic acid spray solutions available for use: acetic acid (vinegar), lactic acid, and FreshBloom® (a mix of citric acid, ascorbic acid and erythorbic acid). Other acids may be applied following a standard protocol. The type of acid used each slaughter day shall be recorded in the Organic Acid Spray SOP Log, along with the amounts of acid and tap water used to prepare the solution. The organic acid solution shall be prepared to yield the following concentrations: • Acetic Acid: 2.5% (vol/vol). Commercial vinegar is usually 5% acetic acid (label will be checked), so a 50:50 dilution in tap water will normally produce the 2.5% solution. • Lactic acid: 2 – 2.5% (vol/vol). Purchased lactic acid is usually 88% (label will be checked), so adding 3.25 fluid ounces of that solution to a gallon of water will result in a 2.1% solution, or adding 3.75 fluid ounces of that solution to a gallon of water will result in a 2.4% solution. • FreshBloom® will be prepared at a rate of 8 ounces (weight) per gallon of water to result in a final concentration of 5.9% (wt/vol). Other acids may be used following manufacturer’s instructions and a standard protocol. Regardless of the acid used, the following basic steps will be followed: Step 1. Warm Water Wash Working with one carcass as a time: Observe the surface of the carcass during washing to ensure that hair, blood and other obvious debris are adequately removed.

ABSTRACT Acids and bases are common solutions that exist everywhere. Almost every liquid that we see in our daily life consists of acidic and basic properties, with the exception of water. They are differ in their properties and are able to neutralize to form H2O, which will be discussed later in a subsection. The acids and bases can be classified by three major sections i.e. The Arrhenius definition which states that an acid produces H+ in solution and a base produces OH-, Later, Bronsted-Lowry who said that acids have an ability to donate protons whereas the bases to accept the protons and thirdly, the Lewis definitions of acids and bases which describes the acid and base as electron acceptor and donor respectively. This review article is throwing light on some important as well as basic aspects of acids and bases including their physical and chemical properties. In addition to this, the study also investigated about the acid and base for their color tests on the litmus paper as identifications, including their ranges as per pH scale.
