Abstract An objective analytical method for the estimation of bitterness of fresh and fermented olives has been developed. Results of the bitterness estimation by the proposed method were in good agreement with organoleptic tests performed concomitantly. The method is based on the extraction with acetone of a bitter constituent from the olive, adsorption of possible interfering materials on gelatin and alumina, and spectrophotometric determination of the resulting bitter solution.

A new reaction was suggested and a new kinetic method was elaborated for determination of Bi(III) in solution, based on its catalytic effect on the oxidation of phenyl-fluorone (PF) by hydrogen peroxide in ammonia buffer. By application of spectrophotometric technique, a limit of quantification (LQ) of 128 ng cm-3 was reached, and the limit of detection (LD) of 37 ng cm-3 was obtained, where LQ was defined as the ratio signal: noise = 10:1 and LD was defined as signal 3:1 against the blank. The RSD value was found to be in the range 2.8-4.8 % for the investigated concentration range of Bi(III). The influence of some ions upon the reaction rate was tested. The method was confirmed by determining Bi(III) in a stomach ulcer drug ('Bicit HP', Hemofarm A.D.). The obtained results were compared to those obtained by AAS and good agreement of results was obtained.

Abstract Two-component spectrophotometric method of analysis using 2 wavelengths, the method of least squares using absorbances, the method using 2-orthogonal function coefficients, and the method of least squares using orthogonal function coefficients have been applied to the determination of atropine sulfate in the presence of phenylmercury (II) acetate, compounds whose spectra overlap. The first method gave erroneous results; the second method gave satisfactory results for synthetic mixtures. The fourth method was superior, especially in the presence of irrelevant absorption. It has been successfully used for determining atropine sulfate in injection solutions in which a cubic irrelevant absorption was present. Results were in good agreement with those obtained by the official method.

In this paper we give the new improved analytical method of triple stub tuner for matching the load impedances to provide the maximum power transfer between a generator and a load. The stubs are connected in parallel with the line at the appropriate distances from the load. The characteristic impedances of the transmission line and the stabs are different. The paper points on the determination of the length for the first stub near the load. The limit lengths for the first and the second stub are found for which the matching is possible. The length of the third stub is directly obtained from the matching conditions. Even though there is not the unique solution for the triple stub matching we also shoved the existence of unique solutions under some conditions. The special cases are also treated. The results of this method are verified by those obtained using the Smith chart and there are in exceptionally good agreement. Even though there are not many papers on this subject this work could be useful for engineers, and physicist which work in this domain.

A simple, rapid and sensitive spectrophotometric procedure for the assay of some drugs has been developed. The method is based on the reaction of the studied drugs with 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). The latter is employed to abstract a hydrogen atom from the drugs thereby promoting a process of radical coupling. This results in a reduction of the violet color of DPPH with the formation of the yellow colored 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazine (DPPH2). The decrease in the intensity of the violet color is used to measure the concentration of the drugs. All measurements are made at λ= 520 nm on methanolic solutions of the reagent and drugs. Beer's law is obeyed in the ranges of 5-30 µg/ml (for aceclofenac, diclofenac sodium and thiaprofenic acid), 2-15 µg/ml (for tenoxicam, furosemide and lansoprazole) and 2-12 µg/ml (for benoxinate hydrochloride and ritodrine). The validity of the method was tested by carrying out standard addition procedure analyzing the studied drugs in pure form as well as in their pharmaceutical preparations without interference from common additives. Results of the proposed methods are in good agreement with those of the official or reported methods.
