Exposure to elevated silver (as AgNO3) concentrations (6-9 microM) in seawater was associated with comparably high silver concentrations in the intestinal fluids of the lemon sole (Parophrys vetulus), and a tendency for reduced drinking rate. The effects of silver on intestinal ion and acid-base regulation were studied using in situ perfusion of the intestine. Intestinal net Cl- uptake was redu...

The in vitro cytotoxicities of a number of gold(I), silver(I) and copper(I) complexes containing chiral tertiary phosphine ligands have been examined against the mouse tumour cell lines P815 mastocytoma, B16 melanoma [gold(I) and silver(I) compounds] and P388 leukaemia [gold(I) complexes only] with many of the complexes having IC(50) values comparable to that of the reference compounds cis-diam...

in this study bactericidal activity of a malodor neutralizer containing silver nanoparticles manufactured in iran has been tested. for this purpose different concentrations of the product encounter with staphylococcus aureus, pseudomonas aeruginosa and bacillus cereus then the activity were evaluated in different contact times. the products containing at least 200 ppm of silver nanoparticles we...

hydrous manganese dioxide nanoclusters are prepared by the oxidation of manganese (ii) ions with ammonium persulfate and used as a new sorbent for ag+ ion removal from aqueous medium. the synthesized compound is characterized using scanning electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, energy dispersive analysis of x-rays, x-ray diffraction and bet surface measurements. scanning electron micro...

Copper ion homeostasis is complicated in that copper is an essential element needed for a variety of cellular processes but is toxic at excess levels. To identify Candida albicans genes that are involved in resistance to copper ion toxicity, a library containing inserts of C. albicans genomic DNA was used to complement the copper sensitivity phenotype of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae cup1Delta str...

The precipitation titration of sodium chloride with electrogenerated silver ion was studied. The production of a precipitate of silver chloride had a significant effect on the titration results because the precipitate involved unreacted chloride or unreacted silver ion. The accuracy of the method was investigated by changing the introduction time of a sodium chloride solution to the coulometric...

This communication reports the production of polyphenylpyrrole coated silver nanoparticles at the liquid/liquid interface by an EC-type mechanism. In the electrochemical step of the reaction N -phenylpyrrole facilitates the transfer of the silver ion from an aqueous to an organic phase. This step is followed by a slow homogeneous electron transfer reaction from the N -phenylpyrrole to the silve...

Abstract The recovery and recycling of nutrients (N&P) from wastewater are one the major topics to save primary energy resources, raise efficiency treatment plants, foster a future circular economy. In present study, removal ammonium (NH 4 + ) phosphate (PO 3− using natural Ca-treated zeolite is investigated in detail. Special emphasis put on simultaneous both species model solutions follow...

A spectrophotometric method for the determination of chlorine,bromine or iodine ion by using1,5-bis(6-methy1-4-pyrimidyl)carbazone has been established.The ranges of determination were0.355-3.55ppm of Cl-,0.799-7.99ppm of Br and1.27-12.7ppm of F.The proposed method could be applied to the analyses of various halogen-containing organic compounds, including sulfur-containing compounds.Eleven comm...
