Application of 33100-27-5. Chemistry is an experimental science, and the best way to enjoy it and learn about it is performing experiments.Introducing a new discovery about 33100-27-5, Name is 1,4,7,10,13-Pentaoxacyclopentadecane
An electrochemical assay for sensitive and selective determination of mercury was suggested. Preparation, characterization, and testing of the electro-catalytic activity of Crown-ether/multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs)/CPEs were performed. The voltammetric responses of modified electrodes with various sensing elements and nanomaterials were carefully investigated. Consequently, improving the sensitivity and selectivity were achieved using a combination of 12-crown-4-ether and MWCNTs (10% w/w for each). A linear response was observed from 5 to 110 mug/ml, with the detection limit (S/N = 3) of 0.25 mug/ml. The method was interference free from many species and successfully applied for the determination of mercury in blood, urine or tab-water samples with a high accuracy and precision comparable with the reference method (Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy AAS).
