We present new magnetic heat capacity and neutron scattering results for two magnetically frustrated molybdate pyrochlores: S=1 oxide Lu_{2}Mo_{2}O_{7} and S=1/2 oxynitride Lu_{2}Mo_{2}O_{5}N_{2}. Lu_{2}Mo_{2}O_{7} undergoes a transition to an unconventional spin glass ground state at T_{f}∼16  K. However, the preparation of the corresponding oxynitride tunes the nature of the ground state from...

This work describes the synthesis of a novel magnetic graphene oxide composite for removal of Cr(VI) ions. The synthesized nanosorbent were characterized with various techniques such as FT-IR, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), elemental analysis and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM). This material is illustrated to represent a viable sorbent for the removal of Cr(VI...

The role of Vi-capsular polysaccharide (Vi-CPS) in human immunity against infection caused by Salmonella typhi is well known. The downstream process of purification generally causes depolymerization of Vi-CPS to a nonimmunogenic low molecular weight form. In the present study, a standard strain of Sal. typhi Ty6s was grown under submerge cultural conditions in a pilot-plant scale of 90 Liter fe...

presence of heavy metals in the aquatic systems has become a serious problem. as a result, therehas been a great deal of attention given to new technologies for removal of heavy metal ions from contaminated waters. adsorption is one of the effective methods for removal of toxic heavy metal such as chromium (vi). in the present study, adsorbent is prepared from rice husk, a low cost by product f...

Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi expresses a capsule of Vi polysaccharide, while most Salmonella serovars, including S. Enteritidis and S. Typhimurium, do not. Both S. Typhi and S. Enteritidis express the lipopolysaccharide O:9 antigen, yet there is little evidence of cross-protection from anti-O:9 antibodies. Vaccines based on Vi polysaccharide have efficacy against typhoid fever, indicating ...
