T he examination and quantitation of several immunological interactions occurring in murine glomerulonephritIs rely heavily on the Isolation of glomeruli. Most isolation procedures of glomeruli. as used in other animals, are not suitable for the mouse. Based on a method for separating glomeruli from rabbit kidneys (1), a successful magnetic isolation of glomeruli of mice previously infused with...

Linearized augmented plane wave (LAPW) results are presented for FeO at high pressures using the Generalized Gradient Approximation (GGA) to study the high-spin low-spin transition previously predicted by LAPW with the Local Density Approximation (LDA) and Linear Muffin Tin Orbital (LMTO-ASA) methods within the GGA. We find a first-order transition at a pressure of about 105 GPa for the cubic l...

Currently, nanotechnology and nanoparticles have been quickly emerged gained the attention of scientists due to their massive applications in environmental sectors. Nanotechnology also encompasses ability design, characterize, manufacture, implement nano-sized structures. Today, metal oxide stand out industrial various fields applied nanotechnology. Among nanoparticles, iron (FeO-NPs) are one w...

The reactions of FeO(+) with H2 and of Fe(+) with N2O were studied with respect to the production and reactivity of electronically excited (4)Fe(+) cations. The reaction of electronic ground state (6)FeO(+) with H2 was found to predominantly produce electronically excited (4)Fe(+) as opposed to electronic ground state (6)Fe(+) corresponding to a spin-allowed reaction. (4)Fe(+) was observed to r...

[1] A correspondence of the lunar regolith-layer thickness to the lunar digital elevation mapping is proposed to tentatively construct the global distribution of lunar regolith-layer thickness. Using Clementine ultraviolet visible multispectral data, the global spatial distribution of FeO + TiO2 content on the lunar regolith layer is calculated. Thus the dielectric permittivity of the global lu...

Introduction: Nitric oxide (NO) is a neuronal messenger molecule in the central nervous system, which is generated from L-arginine by nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and involves in many important opioid-induced effects. Our previous studies revealed that Cuminum cyminum interestingly reduces morphine sensitization, tolerance and dependency in male mice. Therefore, in the present study, the effe...

Sulfamethoxazole (SMX), a worldwide-applied antibacterial drug, was recently found in surface waters and in secondary wastewater effluents, which may result in ecotoxical effects in the environment. Herein, removal of SMX by environmentally-friendly oxidant, potassium ferrate(VI) (K(2)FeO(4)), is sought by studying the kinetics of the reaction between Fe(VI) and SMX as a function of pH (6.93-9....

In order to quantitatively assess the composition of the lunar surface from reflectance spectroscopy, it is necessary to be able to differentiate between the optical effects due to composition and those due to exposure to space weathering processes. Laboratory analyses of returned lunar soils are used to show that limited quantitative compositional information and the exposure age of the lunar ...

Reactivities of non-heme iron(IV)-oxo complexes are mostly controlled by the ligands. Complexes with tetradentate ligands such as [(TPA)FeO]2+ (TPA=tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine) belong to most reactive ones. Here, we show a fine-tuning reactivity an additional ligand X (X=CH3CN, CF3SO3?, ArI, and ArIO; ArI=2-(tBuSO2)C6H4I) attached in solution reveal thus far unknown role ArIO oxidant. The HAT [(...

Al2O3 substrate is widely used as a lining refractory material throughout the blast furnace (BF) process. Accordingly, erosion of by molten slag has negative influence on running cost and smooth operation BFs. The effect behavior BF primary containing FeO-CaO-SiO2-MgO-Al2O3 was fundamentally investigated using high-temperature contact angle method FactSage thermodynamic software based compositi...
