The color-changing phenomenon of hydrophobic bisazo dye, Sudan III in an acetonitrile solution against the addition of concentrated sulfuric acid has been discovered and the chromic properties investigated. Based on observations, a novel quantification method of concentrated sulfuric acid has been developed. Sudan III changes its color from orange to blue against a small volume of sulfuric acid, and the acetonitrile solution of Sudan III is the most suitable for observing the color-change phenomenon. (1)H-NMR and UV-Vis spectroscopic studies showed that the color-change mechanism of Sudan III against sulfuric acid is due to the protonation of the dye by sulfuric acid. This phenomenon is applicable to the quantification of concentrated sulfuric acid by introducing the Hammett acidity function. The proposed method requires only a small amount of the sample, 0.04 mL, and enables rapid quantification.

Knowledge of plant growth dynamics is essential where constraints such as COVID-19 lockdown restrictions have limited its field establishment. Thus, modeling can be used to predict plant performance where field planting/monitoring cannot be achieved. This study was conducted on the growth dynamics of rubber planted on two acid soils treated with either dolomitic limestone (GML), kieserite or Mg-rich synthetic gypsum (MRSG) to supply the Mg required by rubber seedlings.

To analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with metastatic calcification undergoing maintenance dialysis. Patients diagnosed with metastatic calcification via 99mTc-MDP bone scintigraphy between June 2019 and March 2023 at our hospital were included in this study. All patients were followed from the time of diagnosis until death, loss to follow-up, or the study endpoint (July 2023).

The operation of a reverse osmosis (RO) system is often severely hindered by the deposition of inorganic scales such as calcium carbonate on the membrane surface. Mitigation of this scaling phenomenon requires suitable pH control strategies, with the use of strong mineral acids (e.g.
