The bias and precision of four different methods for determining O2 saturation (SO2) were evaluated during a study of hypobaric hypoxia conducted with seven male subjects exposed progressively over a 40-day period to simulated altitudes from sea level (760 Torr) to 8,840 m (240 Torr). SO2 of arterial and mixed venous blood samples were measured with the Instrumentation Laboratory 282 CO-oximeter (CO-OX), the Radiometer ABL-300 (ABL), and the Lex-O2-Con-K (LEX). Noninvasive measurements of arterial SO2 were made with a Hewlett-Packard 47201A ear oximeter (EAR-OX). The CO-OX method was used as a secondary standard for comparison with the other methods because it has been validated against the classical Van Slyke method over a wide physiological range (Maas et al., Clin. Chim. Acta 29: 303-309, 1970). The LEX results most closely approximated but consistently underestimated those of the CO-OX: LEX = 0.93 CO-OX -0.86, standard error of the estimate (SEE) = 5.17, r = 0.98, n = 670. The ABL method appeared to combine two linear trends: for SO2 greater than 75%, ABL = 0.84 CO-OX +14.4, SEE = 1.77, r = 0.97, n = 369; less than 75%, ABL = 0.98 CO-OX +5.9, SEE = 4.44, r = 0.97, n = 486. The EAR-OX results were found to approximate those of the CO-OX at SO2 values only greater than 65%: EAR-OX = 1.07 CO-OX -6.12, SEE = 7.71, r = 0.98, n = 326.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Advanced materials for the efficient treatment of textile wastewater need to be developed for the sustainable growth of the textile industry. In this study, graphene oxide (GO) was modified by the incorporation of natural clay (bentonite) and mixed metal oxide (copper-cobalt oxide) to produce GO-based binary and ternary composites. Two binary composites, GO/bentonite and GO/Cu-Co Ox (oxide), and one ternary composite, GO/bentonite/Cu-Co Ox, were characterized by Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis.

Article Synopsis
  • Photoinduced linkage isomers (PLIs) of the nitro-ligand were created and analyzed in a square planar structure of the complex salts, utilizing various structural (XRD) and spectroscopic (IR, UV-vis) methods to identify different photoinduced isomers generated through irradiation.
  • Irradiation at low temperatures (10-80 K) produced both -ONO and -ONO isomers, while heating to higher temperatures (up to 150 K) favored the formation of only -ONO isomers, suggesting that intermolecular interactions, particularly with water, affect their structural arrangement.
  • The study also outlined a detailed thermal decay process for -ONO isomers through two steps to revert to NO, determining kinetic parameters and decay temperatures

In this work, the optical and structural properties of gradient (Ti,Co)Ox coatings with a resistive switching effect have been outlined. They were prepared using multi-magnetron sputtering and, despite the high cobalt content, they were transparent and had a high refractive index. The gradient Co-addition resulted in the receiving of fine crystalline -anatase and forms in the amorphous surrounding.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers developed a new method to create metal-doped porous graphitic carbon nitride (P-g-CN) nanostructures to improve CO oxidation reactions at lower temperatures.
  • The process involves a simple, green approach that uses acidic conditions to form special nanosheets embedded with copper single atoms, significantly enhancing their catalytic efficiency.
  • The new Cu-P-g-CN showed a remarkable conversion rate for CO, reaching complete conversion at 184 °C, compared to just 3.8% for regular P-g-CN at 350 °C, showcasing the benefits of utilizing copper atoms in the structure.

The X-ray structure of racemic tris(ethane-1,2-diamine-κN,N')cobalt(III) tris(oxalato-κO,O)cobaltate(III) pentahydrate, [Co(CHN)][Co(CO)]·5HO or [Co(en)][Co(ox)]·5HO, has been determined. Hydrogen-bonding interactions along the C-axis of the [Co(en)] cation with the [Co(ox)] anion are heterochiral, while those perpendicular to this axis are homochiral. Implications for the interpretation of chiral discriminations and induction in electron-transfer reactions in solution are discussed.
