this research aimed to study on effect of foliar spraying with zinc (as zinc sulphate), nitrogen (as urea) and iron (as sulphate and chelated fe) on growth parameters, quality of fruit, flower characteristics, chemical constituents and nutrients content of leaves on grapevine. applied nutrients were zinc sulphate (zn) of 0.0 and 1.5gl-1 and urea (n) at 0.0 and 5 gl-1 and fe (1) control (low fe)...

abstract a hydroponics experiment was conducted to compare effect of fe-deficiency on concentration, uptake, translocation of fe, zn, mn in some plants. a completely randomized block design in triplicates was conducted in research greenhouse. seven plants with different fe-efficiency contained two bread wheat genotypes (triticum aestivium l. cvs. backcross roshan and qods), triticale (x. tritic...

We employ spin-polarized periodic density functional theory (DFT) to examine carbon atom adsorption on, absorption in, and diffusion into Fe(110) and Fe(100). We find that carbon atoms bind strongly with Fe surfaces and prefer high coordination sites. The carbon atom is predicted to adsorb on the long-bridge site on Fe(110) and the fourfold hollow site on Fe(100). Due to the very short distance...

The title compound, [Fe(2)(C(14)H(10)NS(2))(2)(CO)(6)], was synthesized as a structural and biochemical model for the active site of [FeFe]-hydrogenase. The bond lengths (Fe-Fe, Fe-S and Fe-C) and angles (C-Fe-Fe and Fe-S-Fe) are within expected ranges. The S⋯S distance [2.9069 (12) Å] and the dihedral angle between two Fe-S-Fe planes [78.5 (3)°] of the butterfly-shaped Fe(2)S(2) core are enlar...

Reduction of Fe(3+) to Fe(2+) is a prerequisite for Fe uptake by tomato roots. Ferric chelate reductase activity in plasma membranes (PM) isolated from roots of both iron-sufficient (+Fe) and iron-deficient (-Fe) tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) was measured as NADH-dependent ferric citrate reductase and exhibited simple Michaelis-Menten kinetics for the substrates, NADH and Fe(3+)(citr...

The structure of the iron sites of nitrogenase in dithionite-reduced and thionine-oxidized forms of the Mo-Fe and V-Fe proteins has been investigated using Fe K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy. For the dithionite-reduced Azotobacter uinelandii Mo-Fe protein, the dominant EXAFS Fourier transform peaks are assigned to F e 4 and Fe-Fe interactions at -2.32 and 2.64 A, as expected for F e S clus...

Interfacial electron transfer has been shown to occur between sorbed Fe(II) and structural Fe(III) in Fe oxides, but it is unknown whether a similar reaction occurs between sorbed Fe(II) and Fe(III)-bearing clay minerals. Here, we used the isotopic specificity of (57)Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy to demonstrate electron transfer between sorbed Fe(II) and structural Fe(III) in an Fe-bearing smectite...

A previous document, RFC 1341, defines a format and general framework for the representation of a wide variety of data types in Internet mail. This document defines one particular type of MIME data, the matter-transport/sentient-life-form type. The mattertransport/sentient-life-form MIME type is intended to facilitate the wider interoperation of electronic mail messages that include entire sent...

methanol steam reforming plays a pivotal role to produce hydrogen for fuel cell systems in a low temperature range. to accomplish higher methanol conversion and lower co production, the reaction was catalyzed by cuznfe mixed oxides. various ratios of fe and cu/zn were coprecipitated in differential method to optimize the cuznfe structure. the sample containing 45cu50zn5fe (wt. %) revealed its m...
