In this work, CoFe₂O₄@SiO₂@TiO₂ core-shell magnetic nanostructures have been prepared by coating of cobalt ferrite nanoparticles with the double SiO₂/TiO₂ layer using metallorganic precursors. The Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Energy Dispersive X-Ray Analysis (EDX), Vibrational Sample Magnetometer (VSM) measurements and Raman spectroscopy results confirm the presence both of the silic...

Nanoparticles of rubidium cobalt hexacyanoferrate (RbjCok[Fe(CN)6]l · nH2O) were synthesized using different concentrations of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) to produce four different batches of particles with characteristic diameters ranging from 3 to 13 nm. Upon illumination with white light at 5 K, the magnetization of these particles increases. The long-range ferrimagnetic ordering temperatures...

Cytotoxicity and cell growth inhibition studies were performed for five distinct cobalt(ll) [Co(2)(acac)tpmc](ClO(4))(3), [Co(2)(dibzac)tpmc](ClO(4))(3), [Co(2)(hfac)tpmc](CIO(4))(2), [Co(2)(tmhd)tpmc](CIO(4))(3) and [Co(2)(ox)tpmc](CIO(4))(2).3H(2)0 and five molybdenum(Vl) complexes, [MoO(2)(pipdtc)(2)], [MoO(2)(morphdtc)], [MoO(2)(timdtc)(2)], [MoO(2)(pzdtc)(2)] and [MoO(2)(N-Mepzdtc)(2)]. Th...

The cobalt phosphate, CsCoPO4, possessing the zeolite ABW framework topology has been synthesised using a solid state route. Rietveld refinement from powder neutron diffraction data has shown the material to be a direct structural analogue of CsZnPO4 polymorph III. The framework is made up of alternating cobaltate and phosphate tetrahedra sharing vertices with caesium counter cations located in...

Introduction: The Phoenix Mars Lander 2007 mission will carry three identical calibration targets to verify and validate the preflight calibration of the Surface Stereo Imager (SSI) and to monitor the stability of this calibration during the mission. The specially designed calibration targets (‘the caltargets’) are at least in one respect more advanced than calibration targets on earlier missio...

This work reports the use of modified screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCEs) for identification three drugs abuse and two habitual cutting agents, caffeine paracetamol, combining voltammetric sensing chemometrics. In order to achieve this goal, codeine, heroin morphine were subjected Square Wave Voltammetry (SWV) at pH 7, in elucidate their electrochemical fingerprints. The optimized SPCEs el...

The coordination chemistries of the tetradentate N2O2-type ligands N-(2-pyridylmethyl)iminodiethanol (H2pmide) and N-(2-pyridylmethyl)iminodiisopropanol (H2pmidip) have been investigated with nickel(ii) and cobalt(ii/iii) ions. Three novel complexes prepared and characterized are [(Hpmide)2Ni3(CH3COO)4] (1), [(Hpmide)2Co3(CH3COO)4] (2), and [(pmidip)2Co3(CH3COO)4] (3). In 1 and 2, two terminal ...

Since the demonstration by Waltner and Waltner (1) that cobalt will produce a polycythemia in rats, this effect has been produced in various other laboratory animals and human beings. However, the mechanism by which cobalt produces erythroid hyperplasia of the bone marrow remains obscure. This unique action of cobalt continues to be of interest because of its importance in leading to a better u...
