چکیده

Saponified apple waste gel was prepared in wet condition with calcium hydroxide at highly alkaline medium. The effect of initial concentration, contact time and pH of the solution was investigated. The maximum adsorption capacity onto this adsorbent was investigated for Fe(III), Cd(II), Zn(II) and Pb(II) at their optimal pH of 3, 6, 4.5 and 3.5 respectively. Langmuir isotherm and pseudo second-order kinetic model gave better explanation of the adsorption process. For binary mixture of Zn(II) and Cd(II), the separation factor and effect on adsorption capacity for both the metals were investigated.

Adsorption behavior of metal ions onto a bovine serum albumin (BSA) membrane monitored by means of an electrode-separated piezoelectric quartz crystal.

The interaction between metal ions and bovine serum albumin (BSA) was studied by using a piezoelectric quartz crystal (PQC) arranged in the electrode-separated configuration. A silanized surface of the PQC was coated with a BSA membrane via a coupling reaction with glutaraldehyde. The frequency shifts obtained from PQC coated with a BSA membrane suggested that various kinds of metal ions could ...
