Cyclic voltammograms recorded with a single platinum microelectrode were used along with a non-supervised pattern recognition, namely, Principal Component Analysis, to conduct a qualitative analysis of sixteen different brands of carbonated soft drinks (Kuat, Soda Antarctica, H2OH!, Sprite 2.0, Guarana Antarctica, Guarana Antarctica Zero, Coca-Cola, Coca-Cola Zero, Coca-Cola Plus, Pepsi, Pepsi Light, Pepsi Twist, Pepsi Twist Light, Pepsi Twist 3, Schin Cola, and Classic Dillar’s). In this analysis, soft drink samples were not subjected to pre-treatment. Good differentiation among all the analysed soft drinks was achieved using the voltammetric data. An analysis of the loading plots shows that the potentials of −0.65 V, −0.4 V, 0.4 V, and 0.750 V facilitated the discrimination process.

  • Ozzy Osbourne Is, What Rock Have You Been Living Under?
    If you need to read a bio to learn about who Ozzy Osbourne is, what rock have you been living under? Ozzy Osbourne’s career has spanned five decades and his music is as relevant today as ever. On any given day you can hear his music blasting at sporting events, in the movies, on the radio, in TV commercials, video games or on your phone. Ozzy’s not only a legend and an icon but is a pioneer in his genre of music. He has helped open the door for countless bands by giving them their big break by taking them on tour or by taking them on Ozzfest, his all- day metal festival which is now in its 23rd year. Ozzy has always been an innovator. He leads and others follow. He was the first front man to leave a hugely successful band and have equal or greater success as a solo artist. He was the first to have his own hard rock/metal touring festival. He was the first to have a celebrity-reality television program. There’s no doubt that Ozzy’s impact will be felt for generations to come. Here are some milestones from Grammy Award-winning Ozzy Osbourne’s 50-year career: THE SEVENTIES: • Ozzy releases his first record with Black Sabbath in 1970 (released Friday, February 13th). The self-titled record goes platinum that same year in the U.K. and U.S. • Ozzy releases 10 records with Black Sabbath. • Black Sabbath has sold over 50 million records (to date) worldwide. • Black Sabbath tours throughout the 70s performing to legions of fans around the world.
