TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a mixture of polyhydroxy organic compound and TRITON-X-100 to obtain a stabilized enzyme solution which can be used in combination with a chromogen diluent solution, which is made by dissolving phenol and triton-100 in water or buffer solution.
Abstract: Stabilized enzymes useful in the diagnostic assay of total cholesterol are prepared by dissolving a salt of cholic acid in a buffer solution providing a pH within the range of about 4 to about 9, to the solution is added a cholesterol esterase. The solution is then mixed with a polyhydroxy organic compound and TRITON-X-100. A cholesterol oxidase and a peroxidase are each dissolved in separate portions of buffer solution and introduced into the buffered solution containing the cholesterol esterase. 4-aminoantipyrine is then added to the solution. The resultant solution is a stabilized enzyme solution which can be used in the total cholesterol assay of a serum sample. The stabilized solution can be used in combination with a chromogen diluent solution which is made by dissolving phenol and TRITON-X-100 in water or a buffer solution. The combination of the stabilized enzyme solution and the chromogen diluent solution provides a solution which has utility in the spectro-photometric assay of total cholesterol.

TL;DR: The effect of temperature and partial pressure of oxygen on antimony (Sb) microelectrodes was examined, and pH of blood was estimated in the bullfrog, with the difference between the two being relatively minor.
Abstract: With regard to pH measurement of biological fluids in vivo with metal-metal oxide microelectrodes, the effect of temperature and partial pressure of oxygen on antimony (Sb) microelectrodes was examined, and pH of blood was estimated in the bullfrog. The temperature coefficient (dE/dt) of electromotive force (EMF) of Sb-microelectrodes in the range of 7 to 37 degrees C was -1.18 +/- 0.113 mV/degrees C (mean +/- SEM) in Ringer solution, whereas that of the pH glass electrode in the same solution was -0.43 +/- 0.035 mV/degrees C. When estimated in Tris buffer solution, it was -0.06 +/- 0.063 mV/degrees C for Sb-microelectrodes and 1.05 + 0.036 mV/degrees C for glass electrodes. The change of slope constant (alpha in -mV/pH) in the Sb-microelectrode due to temperature change could be predicted empirically from: alpha = 0.40 (t-25) + 55.3, where t represents the measuring temperature in degrees C. The resultant deviation of pH reading between Sb and glass electrodes, delta pHSb-Glass, may be expressed by: delta pHSb-Glass = 0.00183 (t-25) +0.016. In the range of 45 to 760 mmHg of oxygen partial pressure it fixed pH, the EMF increased linearly with the increase of Po2, the slope (dE/dlog(Po2)) being 11.7 +/- 0.42 (SEM) mV (n = 13, t = 25 degrees C). In consideration of the above effects, the blood pH of bullfrog was estimated to be 7.697 +/- 0.092 (SD) and 7.729 +/- 0.111 with glass and Sb-microelectrodes respectively, the difference between the two being relatively minor.

TL;DR: In this paper, it is suggested that published K2 values for succinic acid in water that were derived from the Harned cell are ≈ 2 % too high, provided data are obtained down to an ionic strength ≈ 0.01, pK2 values show little dependence on reasonable estimates of the parameters used in the Debye-Huckel activity coefficient expression.
Abstract: pK1 and pK2 values at zero ionic strength of some dicarboxylic acids in water and in 10 % ethanol (by volume) at 25 and 40°C have been compiled from e.m.f. measurements of a glass electrode, HCl, buffer, AgCl cell. As in previous work (Part 12) dilute HCl was used to calibrate the cell and the pKs assessed after additions of stock buffer solution. Critical comparisons with published figures for malonic and succinic acids in water, obtained from measurements with the classical Harned cell H2, Pt, buffer, NaCl, AgCl show that the glass electrode cell can yield answers of similar precision. Provided data are obtained down to an ionic strength ≈ 0.01, pK2 values show little dependence (≈ 1 %) on reasonable estimates of the parameters used in the Debye–Huckel activity coefficient expression. It is suggested that published K2 values for succinic acid in water that were derived from the Harned cell are ≈ 2 % too high.

TL;DR: The cleavage of the N-S bond in 2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-7-benzofuranyl (di-n-butylaminosulfenyl) (methyl)carbamate was examined in different buffer solutions (hydrolysis), in buffer solution containing sulfhydryl reagents (thiolysis) and on thin-layer chromatographic plates.
Abstract: The cleavage of the N-S bond in 2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-7-benzofuranyl (di-n-butylaminosulfenyl) (methyl)carbamate was examined in different buffer solutions (hydrolysis), in buffer solution containing sulfhydryl reagents (thiolysis) and on thin-layer chromatographic plates. In buffer solution and on thin-layer plates, N-S bond cleavage readily occurred to give carbofuran as a major product, with minor amounts of bis-carbofuran-N,N'-disulfide and -trisulfide. The hydrolysis reaction in buffer proceeded with first-order kinetics. Significant amounts of an unknown polar compound were obtained in buffer solution and on thin-layer plates. In the presence of excess cysteine and glutathione at pH 7.0, thiolytic N-S bond cleavage occurred with first-order kinetics to give carbofuran as the sole identifiable product. At pH 5.0, three minor products were obtained along with carbofuran.

Abstract: The stability constant of binuclear copper(II) complex with 3,6-Dioxaoctane-1,8-diamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetric acetic acid (ethylene glycol bis[2-[bis(carboxymethyl)amino] ethyl] ether, customarily abbreviated to EGTA of Y) was determined on the basis of potentiometric titration by means of a copper(II) ion-selective electrode. In acetate buffer solution of pH 5.8 titration curves of copper(II) with EGTA show two distinct end points corresponding to Cu2Y and CuY complexes. The formation constant of the binuclear copper(II) complex was determined from the potential response in the titration fraction between first and second end points. The logarithmic value was found to be log KCu2Y=6.40 at ionic strength of 0.2 M (KNO3–acetate buffer solution) at 25±0.5 °C.

TL;DR: In this article, cross-linked poly (4-vinylpyridinium) and α, ω -dibromides were used as cationic catalysts for the decarboxylation of 6-nitrobenzisoxazole-3-carboxylate anion.
Abstract: Catalysis of cationic polyelectrolytes for the decarboxylation of 6-nitrobenzisoxazole-3-carboxylate anion was studied in a buffer solution (pH=9.0). Cross-linked poly (4-vinylpyridinium) salts prepared from 4-vinylpyridine and α, ω -dibromides were used as cationic catalysts. The cross-linked catalysts were found to accelerate markedly the decarboxylation in comparison with the linear water-soluble analogues. Effect of the polymer structure such as the length of (CH2)x linkages between positive charges on the catalytic activity was examined. It was suggested that the acceleration by the cross-linked polymer catalysts would be due to the hydrophobic microenvironment around the catalytic sites.
