A disposable test strip is proposed for the determination of nitrite in waters. The strip is an inert rectangular strip of polyester with a 6 mm o.d. circular, transparent and colorless film attached to its surface. This film contains the chemicals required for reaction and fixation of the dye formed, sulfanilamide, N-(1-naphthyl)ethylenediamine on Nafion. When the test strip is placed in an acidified (pH 2.0) sample solution containing nitrite a red-violet color develops; the absorbance of this is measured at 536 nm. The linear range of the method depends on the time of equilibration of the test strip with the sample solution. When the equilibration time was 45 min, the linear range was 8.9-500 microg L(-1) whereas for an equilibration time of 60 min it was 4.7-200 microg L(-1). The detection limit was 1.4 microg L(-1) for an equilibration time of 60 min. The precision of the method, expressed as RSD, was 8.8 % at 100.0 microg L(-1). The method was applied, and validated chemometrically, for the determination of nitrite in different types of water (spring, mineral, tap, well, and sea).
A visual image can be described by its temporal as well as spatial properties. A recent study of the asynchronous colour and motion perception has led to a new view of perceptual synchronisation, in which the temporal structures of events in the external world provide a general explanation of how events are bound or misbound in time.
Replaceable brush units of powered toothbrushes (PTBs) can contain metal parts made of nickel and chromium bearing alloy. These alloy ingredients have allergenic potential, and may contaminate toothpaste and the mouth during use. Here I quantify metals abraded from PTBs. A leading brand of PTB was used in a simulated intraoral environment with three leading brand toothpastes, and post-brushing samples were analysed for iron, chromium, nickel, molybdenum, and manganese by certified laboratories using standard methods. Results showed tartar control toothpaste abraded most metal, and caused discolouration of toothpaste slurry. Discolouration of toothpaste slurry, as a useful indicator of metal abrasion, was limited to one toothpaste brand, and not useful across brands.
