the potential sources of cr (vi) are various effluents from metallurgy, electroplating, leather tanning, textile dyeing, paint, ink, and aluminum manufacturing industries. these industrial effluents can contain cr (vi), in the concentration range of 10 to 100 mg/l (nakano et al 2000), which is much higher than the standard limit; 0.5 mg/l in industrial wastewater (epa). in aqueous systems, chro...

In January 2003, fecal samples from 13 live pygmy rabbits, Brachylagus idahoensis (Merriam, 1891), were collected at the Oregon Zoo in Portland, Oregon, and sent to the University of New Mexico (UNM), Albuquerque, New Mexico, to be examined for coccidia. In July 2004, 14 more fecal samples were collected and sent to UNM, 6 from some of the same rabbits and 8 from 16 other rabbits (4 were pooled...

chromium (cr) is one of the elements presents in crust of the earth. due to its toxicity, chromium is considered as water contaminant that may disturb metabolic activity. in the present study, adsorption of dissolved chromium (vi) onto elaeagnus angustifolia fruit charcoal, jujube fruit charcoal and the standard granular activated carbon (gac) has been investigated and compared. the effect of c...

Corn (Zea mays L.) grown on sandy Atlantic Coastal Plain soils is often unresponsive to applications of K fertilizer. As part of a field study on the response of irrigated, intensively managed corn to K applications, we characterized four representative Hapludults from the Delaware Coastal Plain and evaluated their K status. The soils were generally quite sandy with maximum clay contents of 11....

– We demonstrate experimentally that bare solid surfaces with adsorbed organic molecules can orient liquid crystals after UV light irradiation. The detailed structure and behavior of the surface-adsorbed molecules are not important to the effect: just their UV light absorption should depend on their orientation. The only requirement to the solid substrates is their transparency to the UV light....
