The heavy metal ions-nucleobases interaction is an important research topic in environmental and biochemical analysis. The presence of the silver ion (Ag(+)) may influence the formation of oxidation intermediate and the electrocatalytic oxidation activity of guanine (G), since Ag(+) can interact with guanine at the binding sites which are involved in the electrocatalytic oxidation reaction of g...

Rapid industrialization and modernization have introduced substantial amounts of toxic heavy metals into the aquatic and terrestrial environment which possess a serious threat to the flora and fauna. In recent years, considerable research work has been done and is currently underway on a number of natural biopolymers and their modifications to remove different kinds of heavy metal ions. Chitosa...

in current work, cds/black carbon nanocomposites were successfully synthesized with the aid of chestnut and cadmium nitrate as the starting reagents. besides, the effects of preparation parameters such as reaction time, and precursor concentration on the morphology of products and removal of heavy metals (hg+2, pb+2) were studied by scanning electron microscopy images and batch adsorption mode....

removing of ions from different water and waste water is one of the most important of nanofiltration potential for different aims, such as softening of potable water, remove of heavy metal ions and purification of waste water to reuse. in this study nanofiltration was used to remove of the most important ions (na+, k+, ca2+, mg2+, so42-, cl-) in sugar beet press water to reuse of this stream. e...

The one-pot four component synthesis of 3-(Imino)-2,3-dihydropyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline-1,1(10bH)-dicarbonitrile derivatives via a catalyst-free reaction between aryl aldehydes, malononitrile, isoquinoline and isocyanides was successfully conducted in glycerol as a benign, nontoxic and biodegradable promoting reaction medium. The progress of the reaction with two different common purification m...

Heavy metal poisoning is one of the common problems that occurs due to changes in food chain, environmental conditions, etc., One of the most commonly occurring toxicities due to metal ions is lead poisoning. It causes many diseases like skin lesions, cancer, diabetes, heart and lung related problems etc., in human beings. It was widely reported that the elevated level of Pb (II) in drinking wa...

A novel luminescent Zn(2+) ions chemosensor, a cyclometalated platinum(II) bipyridyl acetylide complex, was designed. Of particular significance is that it shows a high sensitivity towards Zn(2+) ions without interference from other biologically important cations in acetonitrile. The tautomerization of amide favors detecting Zn(2+) ions among other HTM (heavy and transition metal) ions in aqueo...

Understanding the speciation and binding of heavy metal ions in different environments is central to nuclear waste management processes. Due to the obvious safety and health hazard in experimental studies, theoretical calculations can be used as an alternative tool to study the chemistry of toxic heavy metal ions. Although several quantum chemical methods with variable accuracy are available, a...

The synergistic adsorption of heavy metal ions and humic acid can be very challenging. This is largely because of their competitive adsorption onto most adsorbent materials. Hierarchically structured composites containing polyethylenimine-modified magnetic mesoporous silica and graphene oxide (MMSP-GO) were here prepared to address this. Magnetic mesoporous silica microspheres were synthesized ...
