The partition of sulfate, Ca(++), and Mg(++) across the membrane of the sartorius muscle has been studied, and the effect of various concentrations of these ions in the Ringer solution on the cellular level of Na(+), K(+), and Cl(-) has been determined. The level of the three divalent ions in toad plasma and muscle in vivo has been assayed. Muscle was found to contain an almost undetectable amo...

Landfills have the potential to mobilize arsenic via induction of reducing conditions in groundwater and subsequent desorption from or dissolution of arsenic-bearing iron phases. Laboratory incubation experiments were conducted with materials from a landfill where such processes are occurring. These experiments explored the potential for induced sulfate reduction to immobilize dissolved arsenic...

Secondary jarosite and water-soluble iron-sulfate minerals control the composition of acid mine waters formed by the oxidation of sulfide in tailings impoundments at the (Zn-Pb-Ag) Pan de Azúcar mine located in the Pozuelos Lagoon Basin (semi-arid climate) in Northwest (NW) Argentina. In the primary zone of the tailings (9.5 wt % pyrite-marcasite) precipitation of anglesite (PbSO4), wupatkite (...

The influence of elicitation on rosmarinic acid biosynthesis by Lavandula vera MM cell suspension culture was investigated using vanadyl sulfate as an abiotic elicitor. It was established that 12 h after treatment with 25 mg/l vanadyl sulfate the rosmarinic acid production was increased up to 3.92 g/l (2.8 times higher compared to the control cultivation). No significant amounts of rosmarinic a...

Flotation is a common process in sulfide ore beneficiation. Due to the restrictions and lack of access to high-quality water sources for industrial purposes, recycled water plays an important role in the flotation processes. Due to the existence of various organic and inorganic substances in the process, water influences the flotation performance. In this work, the effect of accumulation of sul...

The effect of a sulfate reducing bacteria immobilized in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) on simultaneous sulfate reduction and copper removal was investigated. Batch experiments were designed using central composite design (CCD) with two parameters, i.e. the copper concentration (10-100mg/L), and the quantity of immobilized SRB in culture solution (19-235 mg of VSS/L). Response surface methodology (RSM...

−The inhibition of methane production in the continuous anaerobic degradation process for the treatment of sewage sludge containing sulfate was investigated. Also, the competition between sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) and methane-producing bacteria (MPB) with COD/sulfate ratio was explained in terms of electron flow. The methane production rate was 0.07, 0.13, 0.24, 0.31 and 0.33 l-CH4 g-COD ...

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM A wide spectrum of different gingival retraction cords is used, while the relative clinical efficacy of these cords remains undocumented. PURPOSE This study aimed to determine whether clinicians were able to identify differences in clinical performance among 3 types of gingival retraction cords. METHODS AND MATERIAL Dental students and faculty members ranked pairs or se...

Virginia Flue Cured Tobacco is one of the type a lot tobacco cultivated in Indonesia, this many used as ingredient raw cigarette cigarettes, pipe and Susur (chewing tobacco). Leaf contain compound very decisive chemistry quality taste resulting which sugar. Sugar content give mild but if rate too tall precisely will causes burning irritation esophagus. However Thus, SNI-01-4401-2006 it not yet ...
