Nickel/cobalt permeases (NiCoTs, TC 2.A.52) are a rapidly growing family of structurally related membrane transporters whose members are found in Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, in thermoacidophilic archaea, and in fungi. Previous studies have predicted two subclasses represented by HoxN of Ralstonia eutropha, a selective nickel transporter, and by NhlF of Rhodococcus rhodochrous, a n...

The particle size distribution of the resultant cobalt ferrite samples was determined from Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) images using the granulometry image analysis method. Results showed the nanosized particles of the samples. The X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) patterns of samples were also analyzed by Rietveld refinement method. The results indicated that the precipitated sample at 95 <sup...

Arsenic is noxious metal exist in water in form of organic dimethyl arsenic acid (C2H7AsO2) and monomethylarsonic acid (CH5AsO3) while in inorganic arsenic trioxide (As2O3) and sodium arsenate (NaH2AsO4). Its trivalent and pentavalent forms are abundant in natural water. Its trivalent form is 60 times more hazardous than pentavalent form. Reports proved that arsenic contamination in water is th...

Iron cobaltite powders CoxFe3ÿxO4 (1rxr2.46) were synthesized with compositions in between the cobalt ferrite CoFe2O4 and Co2.46Fe0.54O4. The cationic distribution of pure spinel phases was determined by Mössbauer spectroscopy: as Co content increases in the spinel oxide, Co cations replace Fe cations in the octahedral sites and Co cations migrate from octahedral to tetrahedral sites. Saturatio...

In support of a feasibility study of reproductive and developmental health among females employed in the Monchegorsk (Russia) nickel refinery, personal exposure and biological monitoring assessments were conducted. The inhalable aerosol fraction was measured and characterised by chemical speciation and particle-size distribution measurements. Unexpected findings were that: (i), pyrometallurgica...

This study demonstrates the effectiveness of heat treatment in optimizing the magneticproperties of cobalt ferrite, compared to other methods such as cation substitution. It also shows how the magnetic properties of the heat treated cobalt ferrite vary under differenttemperature conditions. Saturation magnetization increased more due to heat treatment than due to Zn-substitution; a cation subst...

BACKGROUND Contact allergy epidemics to chromate and nickel were addressed in Denmark in 1983 and 1990 by regulatory interventions. OBJECTIVES To evaluate whether regulatory interventions on nickel and chromate exposure have reduced the proportion of strong patch test reactions. METHODS 22 506 patients with dermatitis aged 4-99 years were patch tested with nickel sulfate, potassium dichroma...
