Solvent effects on the spectral diffusion dynamics of chlorophylls by Sim, Jamie Hung Ni

“…From the decay of the FFCF, we find that certain timescales of the spectral diffusion dynamics are correlated to the Lewis basicity of the solvent. Additionally, control experiments and theoretical calculations are used to try and better understand the molecular mechanism causing this correlation. …”

PENGARUH VARIASI KONSENTRASI GARAM FeCl3.6H2O, SUHU KALSINASI DAN pH TERHADAP KARAKTER Fe-TiO2 YANG DISINTESIS MENGGUNAKAN METODE SOL-GEL by , AULIA DEWI ROSANTI, , Dr. Akhmad Syoufian, S.Si

“…The variations of pH solution of FeCl3.6H2O 5% were done by adding the acid or base solution to adjust the pH at 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10. As control experiments, undoped TiO2 was also synthesized using the same method without FeCl3.6H2O addition. …”

Titanium layered double hydroxides for photocatalytic applications by Cermelj, K

“…The importance of short-wavelength radiation is discussed, especially for control experiments in the absence of a catalyst. The effects of the synthetic method, Ti content, catalyst and reactant loading, and irradiation time were examined for selected Ti-LDHs.…”

3-Aryl-3-(trifluoromethyl)diazirines as Versatile Photoactivated "Linker" Molecules for the Improved Covalent Modification of Graphitic and Carbon Nanotube Surfaces by Lawrence, E, Wildgoose, G, Aldous, L, Wu, Y, Warner, J, Compton, R, McNaughter, P

“…The surface coverage of 3-[3-(trifluoromethyl)diazirin-3-yl]phenyl ferrocene monocarboxylate, analyzed from both CV and XPS experiments was found to be 7%-11% of that estimated for a complete monolayer, and was 20-fold greater than that achieved in control experiments that employed conventional covalent modification strategies to form esters between ferrocene methanol and surface carboxylate groups on the graphitic materials. …”

A family of 13 tetranuclear zinc(II)-lanthanide(III) complexes of a [3+3] Schiff-base macrocycle derived from 1,4-diformyl-2,3-dihydroxybenzene. by Feltham, H, Klöwer, F, Cameron, SA, Larsen, D, Lan, Y, Tropiano, M, Faulkner, S, Powell, A, Brooker, S

“…A hexanuclear homometallic zinc(II) macrocyclic complex [Zn(6)(L(Pr))(OAc)(5)(OH)(H(2)O)]·3H(2)O was obtained using a 2:0:1:1 ratio of the same reagents. A control experiment using a 1:0:1:1 ratio failed to generate the lanthanide-free [Zn(3)(L(Pr))] macrocyclic complex. …”

Methane production from anaerobic co-digestion of sewage sludge and decanter cake by Khairul Anuar, Norshafiqah

“…The batch study was conducted at the ratio I/S of 2:1, ratio 1:1 and ratio 1:2 and sewage sludge only as control experiment. The preliminary study resulted in daily biogas collection for the ratio of 1:2 showed the highest cumulative biogas production of 247 mL. …”

Characterization of virgin coconut oil and multiple instrument approach for the detection of lard adulteration in model virgin coconut oil by Tengku Mansor, Tengku Salwani

“…In addition, fatty acid (FA) and triacylglycerol (TAG) analyses were also conducted using gas chromatography - flame ionization detector (GC-FID) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), respectively, as the control experiments. Simple linear regression on fast GC data demonstrated that three peaks on the fast GC chromatogram were found to fit the second order polynomial curve with R2 of 0.8121, 0.8349 and 0.9344, respectively. …”
