In this work, nickel hexacyanoferrate-modified electrode was developed to determine potassium ions in biodiesel by potentiometry. The modified electrodes exhibit a linear response to potassium ions in the concentration range of 4.0 x 10(-5) to 1.0 x 10(-2) molL(-1), with a detection limit of 1.9 x 10(-5)mol L(-1), and a near-Nernstian slope (53-55 mV per decade) at 25 degrees C. The method developed in this work was compared with flame photometry and the potassium concentration found in biodiesel showed that the modified electrode method gives results similar to those obtained by flame photometry.

Halotolerant plant growth-promoting bacteria (HT-PGPB) have attracted considerable attention for their significant potential in mitigating salt stress in crops. However, the current exploration and development of HT-PGPB remain insufficient to meet the increasing demands of agriculture. In this study, an HT-PGPB isolated from coastal saline-alkali soil in the Yellow River Delta was identified as J2-5-19.

Under normal conditions, potassium is predominantly found within cells. The concentration gradient of sodium and potassium ions between intracellular and extracellular spaces enables signal transmission through membrane depolarization. The disruption of this transcellular process leads to elevated potassium ion levels in the extracellular space, and thus in the blood, a condition known as hyperkalemia.

Brazilian stingless bee species produce honey with distinct physicochemical and bioactive properties shaped by environmental factors. This study investigated the effects of the rainy and dry seasons on the physicochemical characteristics, chemical fingerprinting, mineral content, and antioxidant capacity of honey from and . The honey samples were analyzed for their phytochemical properties (official methods), total phenolics (Folin-Ciocalteu method), flavonoid content (aluminum complex formation method), antioxidant capacity (FRAP and ABTS assays), and antioxidant activity (erythrocyte model).
