Nitrogen is one of the most important limiting factors for plant growth. However, as ammonium is readily converted into ammonia (NH3) when soil pH rises above 8.0, this activity depletes the availability of ammonium (NH4(+)) in alkaline soils, consequently preventing the growth of most plant species. The perennial wild grass Puccinellia tenuiflora is one of a few plants able to grow in soils wi...

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of different fertilizer types and application rates on ammonia volatilization loss and to explore nitrogen distribution and nitrogen use efficiency using the 15N isotope tracing technique in different alkaline salt-affected conditions in the Songnen Plain, Northeast China. The results showed a decreasing trend in ammonia volatilization l...

Ammonium hydrosulphide has long since been postulated to exist at least in certain layers of the giant planets. Its radiation products may be reason for red colour seen on Jupiter. Several ammonium salts, NH3 and an acid, have previously detected comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. The acid H2S is fifth most abundant molecule coma 67P followed by NH3. In order look salt NH4+SH-, we analysed situ m...

introduction: polyclonal antibodies are required to be affinity purified. improved purification methods of polyclonal antibody provide an opportunity to pick the most purified immunoglobulins as a primary or secondary antibody in immunoassays that are included in many vaccine studies. two common techniques for purifying proteins is salt precipitation and chromatography purification. our work fo...

In this work, the performance of four electrolyte models for prediction the osmotic and activity coefficients of different aqueous salt solutions at 298 K, atmospheric pressure and in a wide range of concentrations are evaluated. In two of these models, (electrolyte Non-Random Two-Liquid e-NRTL and Mean Spherical Approximation-Non-Random Two-Liquid MSA-NRTL), association between ions of opposit...

In the crystal structure of the title salt, C16H36N(+)·CH3BN(-), the tetra-n-butyl-ammonium cations and [BH3(CN)](-) anions are connected via weak C-H⋯N inter-actions, forming chains along the b-axis direction. The anion is almost linear with an N-C-B angle of 178.7 (2)°. The C-N-C angle values at the core of the tetra-n-butyl-ammonium cation range from 105.74 (11) to 111.35 (11)° with an avera...
