Otto Ludwig Ho lder (born, Stuttgart, 1859; died, Leipzig, 1937) was professor of mathematics at the University of Leipzig (Ho lder, 1972) when he published the paper here translated into English. Today, Ho lder is remembered in mathematics for a variety of results, but he is of significance to readers of this journal because of Ho lder's theorem. This theorem occupies a central place in modern...

Chromate (CrO4 2-) adsorption was investigated on kaolinite (0.2-2 ~m) saturated with NaC104 over a range of pH. Adsorption increased with decreasing pH because of protonation of chromate and/ or variable charge sites on kaolinite. Chemical pretreatment to remove noncrystalline and crystalline oxide contaminants affected the magnitude ofCrO42adsorption, but not the pH range over which CrO42adso...

Psicofuranine is a new antibiotic which was first described by Schroeder and Hoeksema (1959), Eble et al. (1959), and Vavra et al. (1959). It has good antibacterial activity in vivo (Lewis et al., 1959) and antitumor activity (Evans and Gray, 1959), but it shows no activity in vitro when assayed by conventional methods. The activity in vitro was demonstrated using the special media and assay te...

Banana peel, a discarded agricultural waste was used to produce bioadsorbent through easy and environmental friendly processes. This banana peel based biosorbent was evaluated for adsorptive removal of copper from water and its desorption capability. The characterisation results showed this biosorbent had very high specific surface area, potential binding sites and functional groups. The optima...

In recent years several studies have suggested an association between periodontal infection and increased risk for cardiovascular diseases (Kuramitsu et al, 2001), preterm birth (Jeffcoat et al, 2001), and poor glycemic control in diabetes mellitus (Taylor, 2001). In addition, clinical evidence for an association between chronic inflammatory periodontal disease and productive cough (chronic bro...

In our earlier paper (Ho et al., 2013), we described three new species of the eel genus Neenchelys Bamber, 1915. Unfortunately, the critical step of registering the work in ZooBank was omitted, thus rendering the names unavailable. In this paper, we present abbreviated descriptions of the new species in order to make these names available in accordance with the amended Article 8.5 of the Intern...

The structure of Cs adsorption on montmorillonite and vermiculite was examined with extended X-ray adsorption fine structure spectroscopy (EXAFS), and outer-sphere (OS) and inner-sphere (IS) complexes were determined by Bostick et al. (2002). Their study also suggested that EXAFS is a very useful technique to investigate the...
