Electrical sensitivity of a boron nitride nanotube (BNNT) was examined toward aniline (C6H5NH2) molecule by using density functional theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G (d) level, and it was found that the adsorption energy (Ead) of aniline on the pristine nanotubes is a bout -19.03kcal/mol. But when nanotube has been doped with Si and Al atomes, the adsorption energy of aniline molecule was increase. Calculation showed that when the nanotube is doping by Al, the adsorption energy is about -27.73kcal/mol and also the amount of HOMO/LUMO energy gap (Eg) will reduce significantly. Boron nitride nanotube is a suitable adsorbent for aniline and can be used in separation processes aniline. It is seem that nanotube (BNNT) is a suitable semiconductor after doping, and the doped BNNT in the presence of aniline an electrical signal is generating directly and therefore can potentially be used for aniline sensors.

Electrical sensitivity of a boron nitride nanotube (BNNT) was examined toward C2H5OH molecules by using density functional theory (DFT) calculations . It was founding that the adsorption energy(Ead) of ethanol on the pristine nanotubes is about -51.5 kJ / mol, but when the nanotube has been doped with Si and Al atoms , the adsorption and recovery time changed and the sensitivity of nanotube toward ethanol was increased. Calculations showed that when the nanotube is doping ,the adsorption energy(Ead) is about -20.2 kJ/mol that leads to decrease the recovery time and also due to doping the nanotube with Si , the amount of HOMO/LUMO energy gap (Eg)will reduce significantly . Therefore , when C2H5OH molecule toward to BBNT, the nanotube has produced electrical signals and it seems that these nanotubes can be used as adsorbents for the sensors which are sensitive about C2H5OH molecule.

Spectrophotometric studies were successfully used in quantitative analysis of Amitriptyline Hydrochloride (ATH) Two new methods using spectrophotometry are described for the determination of (ATH) with potassium bromate as the oxidizing agent and acid dyes, Methyl orange and Indigo carmine. Both spectrophotometric methods are based on the oxidation of mentioned drugs by a known excess of bromate in acid medium and in the presence of excess of bromide followed by estimation of surplus oxidant by reacting with either Indigo carmine (method A) or Methyl orange (method B), and measuring the absorbance at 609 or 507 nm
