The title compound, Eu(5)Cd(2)Sb(5)O adopts the Ba(5)Cd(2)Sb(5)F-type structure (Pearson symbol oC52), which contains nine crystallographically unique sites in the asymmetric unit, all on special positions. One Eu, two Sb, and the Cd atom have site symmetry m..; two other Eu, the third Sb and the O atom have site symmetry m2m; the remaining Eu atom has 2/m.. symmetry. Eu atoms fill penta-gonal ...

The coexistence of cadmium ion (Cd(II)) and antimonate (Sb(V)) creates the need for their simultaneous removal. This study aims to investigate the effects of positively-charged Cd(II) on the removal of negative Sb(V) ions by Fe-Mn binary oxide (FMBO) and associated mechanisms. The maximum Sb(V) adsorption density (Qmax,Sb(V)) increased from 1.02 to 1.32 and 2.01 mmol/g in the presence of Cd(II)...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of cottonseed meal (CSM) treated with sodium bentonite (SB) on certain blood components and immune response of laying hens. A 3 × 3 factorial arrangement with 3 levels of SB (0, 10, and 20 g/kg of diet) and 3 levels of CSM (0, 100 and 200 g/kg of diet) were used within 9 dietary treatments of 4 replicates each. Nine mash diets were fed to ...

A sensitive atomic spectrometric method for the redox speciation analysis of antimony in soils is described. The method is based on the selective generation of stibine from Sb(III) in a continuous flow system using atomic fluorescence spectrometry for detection. Sb(V) is masked by citric or oxalic acid in HCl medium. The procedure was optimized with synthetic solutions of Sb(III) and Sb(V). The...

The asymmetric unit of the title complex, [Sb(C(44)H(28)N(4))Cl(2)][Sb(2)Cl(8)](0.5)·CH(2)Cl(2), is composed of a Sb(V) complex cation wherein the Sb atom is hexa-coordinated by four N atoms of the pyrrole rings of the tetra-phenyl-porphyrinate (TPP) ligands and two chloride ions, a half di-μ-chlorido-bis-[trichloridoanti-monate(III)] counter-anion and a dichloro-methane solvent mol-ecule. In t...

Host immunosurveillance as a mechanism to promote tumor growth or to suppress tumor development is well studied. It is less known how immuno-selective pressure in the form of immunotherapies can instruct the immune system during this process. We hypothesized that the application of a T cell-dependent selection pressure in the form of a whole tumor vaccine would alter the immunogenic architectur...

In the title compound, [Sb(C(9)H(12)N)(2)Cl], the Sb atom adopts a Ψ-trigonal-bipyramidal geometry. The two 2-[(dimethyl-amino)-methyl]-phenyl ligands are coordinated asymmetrically to the Sb atom. The carbon atoms of one of the ligands are disordered over sets of sites with equal occupancy, resulting in two conformational isomers in the crystal. The Sb-C and Sb-N distances in the ordered ligan...

The green colored complexes of the type Re(V)O(L(SB))Cl(2), 1, have been synthesised by reacting NBu(4)[ReOCl(4)] with HL(SB) in dry ethanol. Here, L(SB)(-) are the deprotonated forms of N-(2-hydroxybenzyl)-2-picolylamine (HL(SB)(1)); N-(2-hydroxybenzyl)-N',N'-dimethylethylenediamine (HL(SB)(2)) and N-(2-hydroxybenzyl)-N',N'-diethylethylenediamine (HL(SB)(3)). Similarly, NBu(4)[ReOCl(4)] reacte...
