Dipotassium [nickel(II) zirconium(IV)] tris-(orthophosphate) was prepared from a self-flux in the system K2O-P2O5-NiO-K2ZrF6. The title compound belongs to the langbeinite family and is built up from two [MO6] octa-hedra [M = Ni:Zr with mixed occupancy in ratios of 0.21 (4):0.79 (4) and 0.29 (4):0.71 (4), respectively] and [PO4] tetra-hedra inter-linked via vertices into a (3) ∞[M 2(PO4)3] fram...

Results: No or minor change of zeta potential and average particle size of lumogallion labelled aluminium oxyhydroxide, AlO(OH) and aluminium hydroxyphosphate, Al(OH)x(PO4)y. Both phagocytosing and non-phagocytosing leukocytes became associated with ABAs at concentrations expected after in vivo administration of a vaccine. The ABAs were relatively toxic, affecting both lymphocytes and monocytes...

The glycosylphosphatidylinositol membrane anchor of human placental alkaline phosphatase was isolated by exhaustive proteolysis followed by hydrophobic interaction chromatography. The resulting glycosylphosphatidylinositol-peptide was subjected to compositional analysis and chemical and enzymic modifications. The neutral-glycan fraction, prepared by dephosphorylation followed by HNO2 deaminatio...

The structure of the title compound is characterized by the presence of two different anions, (PO4)(3-) and (P2O7)(4-) with an eclipsed conformation. The crystal structure consists of edge-sharing [NiO6] octa-hedra forming an [Ni3O14] chain running parallel to [001]. Adjacent chains are connected through edges and apices to PO4 and P2O7 groups in such a way as to build a three-dimensional host ...

A new magnesium phosphate, Na3RbMg7(PO4)6 [tris-odium rubidium hepta-magnesium hexakis(ortho-phosphate)], has been synthesized as single crystals by the flux method and exhibits a new structure type. Its original structure is built up from MgO x (x = 5 and 6) polyhedra linked directly to each other through common corners or edges and reinforced by corner-sharing with PO4 tetra-hedra. The result...

Fine powders of brushite CaHPO4·2H2O, ardealite Ca(HPO4)x(SO4)1−x·2H2O (Ca(HPO4)0.5(SO4)0.5·2H2O), and calcium sulfate dihydrate CaSO4·2H2O—all containing sodium chloride NaCl as a reaction by-product—were synthesized from 0.5 M aqueous solution CaCl2, hydrophosphate Na2HPO4 and/or Na2SO4. Powder (Ca(HPO4)0.5(SO4)0.5·2H2O) was by precipitation CaCl2 mixed-anionic simultaneously the hydrogen pho...

Abstract. Elevated phosphate (PO4) concentrations can harm the ecological status in water by eutrophication. In majority of surface waters lowland regions such as Flanders (Belgium), local PO4 levels exceed limits defined environmental policy and fail to decrease, despite decreasing total phosphorus (P) emissions. order underpin definition current limits, this study was set up identify pre-indu...
