a novel, simple, sensitive and effective method has been developed for preconcentration of hg(ii) on nano-fe3o4-dop-ed solid-phase extraction adsorbent. in this paper, dioctyl phthalate (dop) was used to encapsulate nano-fe3o4 and produce a nano-fe3o4-dop sorbent based new sorbent was prepared. this was treated with ethylenediamine (ed) in another solvent-free procedure for the formation of a n...

The Arnold-Chiari malformation is a congenital abnormality of CNS, characterized by downward displacement the parts of the cerebellum, fourth ventricle, pons and medulla oblongata into the spinal canal. This malformation is one of causative factor of death in neonates and infants. A thorough understanding of the direct and indirect sonographic findings is necessary for diagnosis of Chiari II ma...

Increasing evidence suggests that angiotensin II (Ang II) may act as a growth factor for the heart. However, direct effects of Ang II on mammalian cardiac cells (myocytes and nonmyocytes), independent of secondary hemodynamic and neurohumoral effects, have not been well characterized. Therefore, we analyzed the molecular phenotype of cultured cardiac cells from neonatal rats in response to Ang ...

a simple method has been developed for the preconcentration of copper(ii) based on the adsorption of its modified nano polyacrylonitrile fiber. modified nano polyacrylonitrile fiber (panf) was prepared by adding of acrylic fibers to msethanolamine (mma) with different concentration solutions. the stability of a chemically modified nano polyacrylonitrile fiber especially in concentrated hydrochl...
