A new method is described for determining in shales the amount of sulphides that dissolve in dilute hydrochloric acid. 1he samples are treated with hydrochloric acid under vacuum, and the hydrogen sulphide evolved is absorbed in potassium hydroxide and titrated with potassium _~'~ermanganate. The analytical results are expressed as FeS. INTRODUCTION During a study of the distribution of the sul...

The title compound, C(11)H(11)NO, was synthesized by the reaction of 2-(bromo-meth-yl)benzonitrile and acetyl-acetone in the presence of KOH. In the crystal packing, mol-ecules are linked by inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into chains running parallel to the b axis. Centrosymmetrically-related chains inter-act further through weak C-H⋯π inter-actions.

N-doped carbon spheres with hierarchical micropore-nanosheet networks (HPSCSs) were facilely fabricated by a one-step carbonization and activation process of N containing polymer spheres by KOH. With the synergy effect of the multiple structures, HPSCSs exhibit a very high specific capacitance of 407.9 F g(-1) at 1 mV s(-1) (1.2 times higher than that of porous carbon spheres) and a robust cycl...

In experiments originally designed to examine selective turnover of methylated "caps" in renal mRNA, we observed that [3H]methyl label decayed from mRNA containing poly(A) with a half-life of 1-2 hr. (Caps are blocked, methylated mRNA sequences of the general structure m7GpppNm p(1 or 2)Np.). To distinguish between metabolism of short-lived mRNA and discriminate turnover of "caps", we compared ...

The title salt, [K(2)(C(16)H(12)O(6))](n), was obtained by the reaction of 1,2-bis-[4-(ethyl-carbox-yl)-phenox-yl]ethane with KOH in water. The anion lies on a crystallographic inversion center, which is located at the mid-point of the central C-C bond. The K(+) cation is coordinated by six O atoms, two from the chelating carboxyl-ate group of the anion and four from four neighboring and monode...

In this paper, the effect of ultrasonic pre-treatment and aeration on the flotation separation of chalcopyrite from pyrite was investigated at different amounts of potassium ethyl xanthate (KEX), as a collector, and pH values. Artificially-mixed samples of chalcopyrite and pyrite were subjected to flotation studies to understand the effect of aeration with or without ultrasonic tre...

introduction: skeletal staining is an important part of anatomical studies which can evaluate macroscopic disorders in bones and cartilages development. the aim of the present article is to illustrate two distinct protocols by all details in order to stain skeletal system of the lab animals in all ages of their lives so it becomes easy for future studies in this field. methods: in this paper, s...
