Sodium citrate

The role of sodium citrate is to reduce silver nitrate to silver (1). The role of D-glucose was to reduce silver nitrate into just silver, while soluble starch stabilizes the nanoparticles by surrounding them to prevent aggregation (1, 2, 3). The 1 M NaOH, 1 M HCl, and 1 M NaCl caused Batch A to aggregate. The nanoparticles aggregated with these reagents because these are all strong bases or strong acids, which dissociates completely and interacts with the oxidized citrate that separate the nanoparticles, destroying the “citrate shield” away. Thus, the nanoparticles were attracted to each other, and then aggregate. The distilled water, 1 M sucrose, and 1 M NaCl produced nanoparticles resistant to aggregation. To synthesize 20 nm nanoparticles,…

Question How does the addition of sodium citrate and changing pH affect the ability of different foods to undergo spherification? II. Background Research Molecular gastronomists use special techniques, ingredients, and cooking principles to make certain chemical reactions occur. These reactions, produce new flavors and textures. One popular technique is cooking meat sous vid, a French word that means ?under vacuum?. Another technique is spherification (which the act of making liquid-filled…

The D-glucose serves to reduce the silver from Ag1- to Ag1+. The sodium citrate first reduces Ag1+ to Ag, and then functions to bind with the particle surface of silver nitrate particles to allow them to interact. Finally, silver nitrate can aggregate. The silver nitrate combined with D-glucose, sodium citrate, and heat forms an aggregate. The citrate binds with the particle coating and dispels the repulsion between silver nitrate nanoparticles. The nanoparticles then form an aggregate-- a loose…

and the US have been found to commonly use tripotassium salt of EDTA. Subject to optimal conditions, which entail having the appropriate anticoagulant concentration while analysis being undertaken within the first four hours after phlebotomy, whether tripotassium EDTA or dipotassium EDTA are used would not have significance variation on the results obtained from the differential analysis of white blood cells and full blood cell counts (Macey et al. 2002). Furthermore, citrate is also applicable…

Determination of Isoprenaline Hydrochloride Concentration Using Ultra Violet/ Visible Spectroscopy and Quantification of Sodium and Potassium Using Flame Spectroscopy Introduction In UV/VIS (ultraviolet-visible light) spectroscopy, light absorption as a function of various wavelengths gives data about electronic transitions within a solution [1]. The electronic transitions involve exciting an electron from one principle quantum state to another by the absorption of energy [2]. A change in…

that demonstrated how renal system responses and reacts when subjects consuming different types of fluids. Respective fluid volumes are based on each subject’s body mass. Based on each subject’s body mass, after converted from pounds to kilograms, every subjects has different volume and fluids for ingestion. For the control subject, she ingested no fluid throughout entire lab which represented the conditions of normal fluid. For the hypotonic subjects, she ingested 854mL of water within 10…

liquid form. This is a physical change because its actual material that it consisted didn’t change, meaning, it’s still sugar, but in liquid form. Mixing solid copper sulphate with water is a physical change because a new substance was never formed and the copper sulphate is still copper sulphate, but in a different state. Plus the fact that the final product turned into a mixture (solution), which is another sign of a physical change. The changes I examined that were chemical in my experiment…

“With increasing degree of calcification, the concentration of NaOH increases. The relationship between the concentration of NaOH and the factors in the calcified red mud liquor is given by three Equations (16–18): N_NaOH=1.29(N_1 m_1-N_2 (m_2-N_NaOH/1.29) (16) m2 = m1+m1N3 (17) r = 1000/m2 …
