Analytical Pulse Voltammetry

这个项目是在分析和表面化学的一般领域和在电分析化学的子领域。在为期两年的持续资助期内，Osteryoung教授和她的学生将应用脉冲伏安技术来定量苯二氮卓类药物，研究离子与环糊精的相互作用，以及薄膜的电解形成。要研究的具体实验系统包括环糊精与二茂铁羧酸和血红素实体的络合，苯二氮卓类药物在非水介质中的分析方法的发展，单分散球在电化学系统中研究质量传递的新应用，以及Ba-Cu-O超导体的电结晶。这项研究将扩展基础电化学的知识基础，拓宽其实际应用。相关领域将受益于这项工作包括药物分析，酶建模和高温超导材料。

This project is in the general area of analytical and surface chemistry and in the subfield of electroanalytical chemistry. During the tenure of this two-year continuing grant, Professor Osteryoung and her students will apply pulse voltammetric techniques to the quantification of benzodiazepines, to the study of the interactions of ions with cyclodextrins, and to the electrolytic formation of thin films. Specific experimental systems to be investigated include complexation of ferrocenecarboxylic acid and heme entities by cyclodextrins, development of methods for benzodiazepine analysis in nonaqueous media, novel applications of monodisperse spheres to the study of mass transport in electrochemical systems, and electrocrystallization of Ba-Cu-O superconductors. %%% This research will expand the knowledge base and broaden practical utilization of fundamental electrochemistry. Related areas that will benefit from this work include pharmacoanalysis, enzyme modeling, and high temperature superconducting materials.
