A polarographic, oxygen-selective, vibrating-microelectrode system for the spatial and temporal characterisation of transmembrane oxygen fluxes in plants.

A simple procedure is described for the fabrication of micrometer to nanometer-scale platinum electrodes to be used in a vibrating oxygen-selective system. The electrode was prepared by etching a fine platinum wire and insulating it with an electrophoretic paint. The dimensions allowed this electrode to be used with the "vibrating probe technique" in exploratory studies aimed at mapping and measuring the patterns of net influxes as well as effluxes of oxygen in Olea europaea L.

Determination of flubendazole in pharmaceutical dosage forms by differential pulse polarography and UV spectroscopy.

A precise and accurate differential pulse polarographic method was developed for the determination of flubendazole in dosage forms without any prior extraction procedure of interference from the other stated ingredients. A UV spectroscopic procedure was also described and used as reference method. Analyses were generally performed at the 4 micrograms ml-1 flubendazole level.

Determination of isosorbide-5-mononitrate in tablets by differential pulse polarography.

A differential pulse polarographic method requiring little sample separation was developed for the determination of isosorbide-5-mononitrate in tablet dosage form with the standard addition technique and without interference from common excipients. Britton-Welford buffer (pH 3.0) was used as the supporting electrolyte, the single peak occurring at -0.
