experiments were conducted to study the ability of surfactant-modified clinoptilolite for molybdate adsorption from aqueous solutions. clinoptilolite was treated with some cationic surfactants. adsorption of surfactants on zeolite surface was confirmed by chemical analysis, ir (infra-red spectroscopy), dtg (derivative thermogravimetry) and sem (scanning electron microscopy) techniques. the modi...

For the molybdoenzymes synthesis as the nitrogenase, the molybdenum, in its most stable form, the molybdate, must be transported inside the cell. In Bradyrhizobium japonicum, the modABC genes code for a high-affinity ABC-type molybdate transporter. This work allowed to study the effect of inoculation of soybean plants with strains affected in the molybdate transport. modA and modB mutants, unab...

Amino phosphonic acids are good heavy metal extractants for liquid–liquid extraction, but this method requires the use of an organic solvent, which is itself a pollutant. The incorporation these in solid supports gave us opportunity to find solution problem. synthesis new material by Amino-Cyclo-Hexyl Phosphonic Acid into interlayer space Ni/Al-LDH, designated as Ni/Al-ACHPA, was carried out co...

Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) based on Br-2PACz ([2-(3,6-dibromo-9H-carbazol-9-yl)ethyl]phosphonic acid) 2PACz ([2-(9H-Carbazol-9-yl)ethyl]phosphonic and MeO-2PACz ([2-(3,6-dimethoxy-9H-carbazol-9-yl)ethyl]phosphonic molecules were investigated as hole-extracting interlayers in organic photovoltaics (OPVs). The highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energies of these SAMs measured at −6.0...

Isoprenoid biosynthesis via the methylerythritol phosphate pathway is a target against pathogenic bacteria and the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. 4-(Hydroxyamino)-4-oxobutylphosphonic acid and 4-[hydroxy(methyl)amino]-4-oxobutyl phosphonic acid, two novel inhibitors of DXR (1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate reducto-isomerase), the second enzyme of the pathway, have been synthesized and co...

deficiency. It is not applicable to newborn or mass screening with use of ifiterpaper specimens, but is satisfactory for liquid urine screening. In one variant of sulfite oxidase deficiency, due to a defect of its molybdate cofactor metabolism, the concentration of uric acid in serum is decreased. Thus, an unexplained low serum uric acid, especially in a young patient with neurologic abnormalit...

The control of order in organic semiconductor systems is crucial to achieve desired properties in electronic devices. We have studied the order in fullerene functionalized self-assembled monolayers by mixing the active molecules with supporting alkyl phosphonic acids of different chain length. By adjusting the length of the molecules, structural modifications of the alignment of the C60 head gr...

Contradictory findings on the effects of sodium molybdate on estrogen receptor activation have been recently reported. In a preliminary report (Mauck, L. A., and Notides, A. C. (1980) Proceedings of the 62nd Annual Meeting of the Endocrine Society, Abstr. 209) it was suggested that sodium molybdate prevents heat activation of the calf uterine estrogen receptor. This effect was reversible upon d...

Inhibition of 3':5'-cyclic-AMP-5'-nucleotidohydrolase (EC 3.1.4.17) type II (cAMP-phosphodiesterase) by sodium molybdate was studied: While determination of inorganic phosphate and 5'-ribonucleotide phosphohydrolase (5'-nucleotidase) (EC 3.1.3.5) activity was not disturbed by sodium molybdate in concentrations up to 10 mM, cAMP-phosphodiesterase was inhibited by millimolar concentrations of mol...

in this research, mesoporous silica was applied as the host of corrosion inhibitor (molybdate). the loaded mesoporous silica was dispersed in an epoxy matrix. the composite was then coated on the mild steel plate. results showed that the corrosion resistance of the scratched epoxy/mesoporous silica loaded by molybdate was better than the one without molybdate or neat epoxy. on the other hand, e...
