In this paper CuFe2O4, nanocrystalline powders were prepared. Also, the supported Cu ferrite was obtained by impregnation of the supports with Cu and Fe nitrates solutions, for calcination temperature 450 ºC. The samples were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). In this investigation photocatalytic degradation...

Cellulolytic fungi can easily be screened within 2 d for the production of cellulolytic enzymes by staining with Congo red, or by measuring the amount of reducing sugar (glucose) produced with the dinitrosalicyclic acid reagent method. Endoglucanase activity is visible in carboxymethyl cellulose agar plates after staining with Congo red, and fixing with HCI or NaOH. This method is essentially b...

Adeno-associated virus serotype 4 (AAV4) and AAV5 have different tropisms compared to AAV2 and to each other. We recently reported that alpha 2--3 sialic acid is required for AAV5 binding and transduction. In this study, we characterized AAV4 binding and transduction and found it also binds sialic acid, but the specificity is significantly different from AAV5. AAV4 can hemagglutinate red blood ...

The composition of the phospholipids and of the total phospholipid fatty acids was determined in the plasma of 10 normal subjects. In addition the fatty acid composition of the plasma phosphatidyl ethanolamine, phosphatidyl serine, lecithin, sphingomyelin, and lysolecithin of 6 of the subjects was measured. A wide array of fatty acids was found in the plasma total phospholipid similar to that f...

in present investigation the biological leaching of aluminum by isolated fungi from red mud, the main waste product of the alkaline extraction of al from bauxite was studied. biological leaching experiments were carried out using indigenous, date and orange specimen fungi, aspergillus niger, penicillium simplicissimum notatum. savored dextrose chloramphenicol agar (sda) was used as medium for t...
