On the photocatalytic degradation of phenol and dichloroacetate by BiVO4: The need of a sacrificial electron acceptor

César Pulgarin, Laura Ding, Nikola Castillo, Andre Heel

The photodegradation of phenol and dichloroacetic acid (DCAA) by \ce{BiVO4} was studied in the absence as well as presence of selected electron scavengers. The experiments were performed under the visible (vis) irradiation of aqueous solutions over a wide ...

Influence of pH on dehalorespiring consortia & first steps in the development of a methodology for acid neutralization in enhanced in situ bioremediation

Nicole Munz

Enhanced in situ bioremediation of chlorinated solvents is, especially in source zone remediation, often limited through the accompanied high acidification of groundwater. This acid built-up originating from the dechlorination itself and fermentation produ ...

Oxidation of iodide and iodine on birnessite (delta-MnO2) in the pH range 4-8

Urs von Gunten

The oxidation of iodide by synthetic birnessite (delta-MnO2) was studied in perchlorate media in the pH range 4-8. Iodine (I-2) was detected as an oxidation product that was subsequently further oxidized to iodate (IO3-). The third order rate constants, se ...

Physicochemical Properties of the High-Field MRI-Relevant [Gd(DTTA-Me)(H2O)2]− Complex

Lothar Helm, Loïck Moriggi, Cora Prestinari

To study the physicochemical properties of the DTTA chelating moiety (H4DTTA = diethylenetriaminetetraacetic acid = N,N′-[iminobis(ethane-2,1-diyl)]bis[N-(carboxymethyl)glycine]), used in several compounds proposed as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contr ...

pH prediction and control in bioprocesses using mid-infrared spectroscopy

Ian William Marison, Jonas Schenk

An on-line pH monitoring method based on mid-infrared spectroscopy relevant to bioprocesses is presented. This approach is non-invasive and does not require the addition of indicators or dyes, since it relies on the analysis of species of common buffers us ...

Luminescent lanthanides bioprobes emitting in the visible and/or near-infrared ranges

Steve Comby

This Ph.D. work deals with the development of lanthanide-based bioprobes for biomedical analyses and imaging. For this purpose, two different approaches have been followed, one focusing on visible-emitting complexes, while the second addresses the sensitiz ...

Non-Cytotoxic, Bifunctional EuIII and TbIII Luminescent Macrocyclic Complexes for Luminescence Resonant Energy- Transfer Experiments

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Anne-Sophie Chauvin, Caroline Vandevyver

A new macrocyclic ligand,

L^3

, has been synthesised, based on the cyclen framework grafted with three phenacyl light-harvesting groups and a C5-alkyl chain bearing a carboxylic acid function as a potential linker for biological material. Acidity constant ...

Supramolecular chemistry of 12-Metallacrown-3 complexes

Zacharias Immanuel Grote

12-Metallacrown-3 complexes were formed by self-assembly of organometallic half-sandwich complexes [(π-ligand)MCl2]2 (M = Ru, Rh, Ir) and 3-hydroxy-2-pyridone ligands in the presence of Cs2CO3 as base. Upon mixing of different macrocycles, reversible metal ...

Stable 8-hydroxyquinolinate-based podates as efficient sensitizers of lanthanide near-infrared luminescence

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Anne-Sophie Chauvin, Steve Comby

New polydentate ligands (e.g., Tsox and TsoxMe) have been synthesized to take advantage of the chelating effect of bidentate 8-hydroxyquinolinate subunits connected to a N,N,N¢,N¢-tetraaminopropyl-1,2-ethylenediamine framework and with the aim of sensitizi ...

Electrokinetic characterization of poly(dimethylsiloxane) microchannels

Nico de Rooij

This paper characterizes the basic electrokinetic phenomena occurring within native poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) microchannels. Using simple buffers and current measurements, current density and electroosmosis data were determined in trapezoidal, reversib ...
