Purification on kappa (ƙ) carrageenan was performed by dissolving ƙ-carrageenan powder in distilled water and re-precipitated with ethanol and n-hexane separately during re-precipitation process. The purified kappa carrageenan was analyzed by using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and sulfur (CHNS) elemental analysis. The outcomes from FTIR showed there are physical changes due to intermolecular interactions which lead to decrease and lower intensity of hydroxyl band at 3345 cm-1 after re-precipitated with n-hexane, compared to re-precipitation with ethanol and unpurified ƙ-carrageenan. There were variations observed in the percentages of C, H and S in the CHNS analysis between unpurified and purified ƙ-carrageenan. The successfully purified ƙ-carrageenan are suitable to be used for further application.

Schiff Base Ligands

The coordination complexes of Co(II) and Zn(II) with Schiff bases derived from o-phenylenediamine and substituted 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde were prepared All compounds were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy elemental analyzers. They were analyzed using impedance spectroscopy in the frequency range of 100Hz-1 MHz. LI and L2 showed higher conductivity compared to their metal complexes, which had values of 1.3 7 x 10-7 and 6.13 x 10-8 S/cm respectively.

The most important task in a criminal investigation is to detect and identify the recovered biological stains beyond reasonable scientific doubt and preserve the sample for further DNA analysis. In the light of this fact, many presumptive and confirmatory tests are routinely employed in the forensic laboratories to determine the type of body fluid. However, the currently used techniques are specific to one type of body fluid and hence it cannot be utilized to differentiate multiple body fluids. Moreover, these tests consume the samples in due process, and thus it becomes a great limitation especially considering the fact that samples are recovered in minute quantity in forensic cases. Therefore, such limitations necessitate the use of non-destructive techniques that can be applied simultaneously to all types of bodily fluids and allow sample preservation for further analysis. In the current work, attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy has been used to circumvent the aforementioned limitations. The important factors which could influence the detection of blood such as the effect of substrates, washing/chemical treatment, ageing, and dilution limits on the analysis of blood have been analysed. In addition, blood discrimination from non-blood substance (biological and non-biological in nature) has also been studied. Chemometric technique that is PCA–LDA has been used to discriminate blood from other body fluids and it resulted in 100% accurate classification. Furthermore, blood and non-blood substances including fake blood have also been classified into separate clusters with a 100% accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity. All-inclusive, this preliminary study substantiates the potential application of ATR-FTIR spectroscopy for the non-destructive identification of blood traces in simulated forensic casework conditions with 0% rate of false classification.

AbstractPorous methylsilsesquioxane (p-MSQ) films (JSR LKD 5109) were treated with alkyldimethylmonochlorosilanes having chain lengths of one, four, and eight carbon atoms dissolved in supercritical carbon dioxide at 150-300 atm and 50-60°C to repair oxygen ashing damage. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy showed that trimethylchlorosilane (TMCS), butyldimethylchlorosilane (BDMCS), and octyldimethylchlorosilane (ODMCS) reacted with silanol groups on the surfaces of the pores producing covalent Si-O-Si bonds. Selfcondensation between alkylsilanols produced a residue on the surface, which was partially removed using a pure scCO2 rinse. The hydrophobicity of the blanket p-MSQ surface was recovered after silylation treatment as shown by contact angles >85°. The initial dielectric constant of 2.4 ± 0.1 increased to 3.5 ± 0.1 after oxygen plasma ashing and was reduced to 2.6 ± 0.1 by TMCS, 2.8 ± 0.1 by BDMCS, and 3.2 by ODMCS.
