Abstract
The aim of this work is to demonstrate that the physicochemical properties of water depend on its electric charge (potential). It is also shown that the physico-chemical properties of aqueous solutions depend very much on the electric charge (potential) of the water on which these solutions are prepared.
Highlights
Michaels and Hill found that the direction of reversible oxidation-reduction modifications of phenazines is determined by the electrical potential of the aqueous medium: in a medium with a positive electrical potential, the phenazines become oxidized, and in a medium with a negative electrical potential, into a reduced state [1, 2].when studying the interactions between phenazines and DNA, we had to use both water with different electrical potential and aqueous solutions prepared on water with different electrical potential [3]
It was found that the UV absorption of water depends on its electrical potential
It was found that UV absorption spectra of water with negative electric charge have sharp peaks with maximum in the range 190 – 200 nm (Figure 1, spectrum 2) and UV absorption spectra of water with positive electric charge have the wide peaks with maximum in the range 200 – 220 nm (Figure 1, spectrum 3) [7]
Summary
Michaels and Hill found that the direction of reversible oxidation-reduction modifications of phenazines is determined by the electrical potential of the aqueous medium: in a medium with a positive electrical potential, the phenazines become oxidized, and in a medium with a negative electrical potential, into a reduced state [1, 2]. When studying the interactions between phenazines and DNA, we had to use both water with different electrical potential and aqueous solutions prepared on water with different electrical potential [3]. As a result of this approach, it was found that many properties of water depend significantly on its electrical potential; It was found that the properties of aqueous solutions depend on the electrical potential of the water used for their preparation.
