Complex Compounds of Zero-valent Platinum

Monofunctional and higher-valent platinum anticancer agents.

Platinum compounds represent one of the great success stories of metals in medicine. Following the serendipitous discovery of the anticancer activity of cisplatin by Rosenberg, a large number of cisplatin variants have been prepared and tested for their ability to kill cancer cells and inhibit tumor growth. These efforts continue today with increased realization that new strategies are needed t...

FINAL REPORT Degradation of Energetic Compounds Using Zero-Valent Iron (ZVI)

Characterization of zero-valent iron nanoparticles.

The iron nanoparticle technology has received considerable attention for its potential applications in groundwater treatment and site remediation. Recent studies have demonstrated the efficacy of zero-valent iron nanoparticles for the transformation of halogenated organic contaminants and heavy metals. In this work, we present a systematic characterization of the iron nanoparticles prepared wit...

Response Surface Methodology Modeling to Determine of Trace Amounts of Phenolic Compounds Using Silver Modified / Zero Valent Iron/ Fe3O4@G Nanocomposite

In this study, a simple and fast magnetic dispersive solid phase extraction methodology was developed G@Fe3O4/Fe/Ag nanoparticles for preconcentration and determine of phenolic compounds in water samples. The sorbent was characterized by assorted characterization method. The effects of diverse factor on the extraction process were studied thoroughly via design of experiment and desirability fun...

antimicrobial and genotoxicity effects of zero-valent iron nanoparticles

results: the lowest concentrations of nzvi that inhibited the visible growth (mic) of e. amylovora, x. oryzae, b. cereus and streptomyces spp. were 625, 550, 1250 and 1280 ppm, respectively. the minimum bactericidal concentration (mbc) for e. amylovora and x. oryzae were 10,000 and 5,000 ppm of nzvi, respectively. mbc was not observed for the gram positive bacteria. no bacteriostatic and bacter...
