This study aimed to investigate the kinetics of anion exchange step ferrous ions with Na-X zeolite in a temperature range 20 and 80°C for period up 8 hours. A sulfate heptahydrate solution was used as ion source sodium zeolite. The results showed change physical appearance progress process. catalyst color observed time changed from yellow brown. exchanged contents increased reached 0.519 at aft...

objective: the present study was an attempt to study total phenolic content and antioxidant property of the crude ethanolic extract of the roots of azadirachta indica (a. indica). materials and methods: to evaluate the antioxidant properties of the crude extract, some complementary test systems, namely dpph free radical scavenging assay, reducing power assay, and ferrous ion chelating ability a...

bioleaching processes for extraction of cu and mo from molybdenite cons. are more environmentally friendly and consume less energy than conventional technologies, yet less economically efficient. one necessary step towards arriving at a cost-effective bioleaching process is using appropriate methodology to optimize pertinent factors in such processes. to this end, the present study employed res...

Iron polymaltose complex (IPC) offers similar efficacy with superior tolerability to ferrous sulfate in adults, but randomized trials in children are rare. In a prospective, open-label, 4-month study, 103 children aged >6 months with iron deficiency anemia (IDA) were randomized to IPC once daily or ferrous sulfate twice daily, (both 5 mg iron/kg/day). Mean increases in Hb to months 1 and 4 with...

Regulatory motifs can be found by local multiple alignment of upstream regions from coregulated sets of genes, or regulons. We searched for regulatory motifs using the program AlignACE together with a set of filters that helped us choose the motifs most likely to be biologically relevant in 17 complete microbial genomes. We searched the upstream regions of potentially coregulated genes grouped ...

1. The catalytic decomposition of undegraded cellulose in the form of cotton fibres is described with hydrogen peroxide at 0.4-0.04% (w/v) concentration in the presence of ferrous salts at pH3-5. 2. Complete solubilization of 5mg. of cotton fibres occurred in about 7 days in the presence of 0.4% hydrogen peroxide and 0.2mm-ferrous sulphate at the optimum pH4.2-4.3. 3. With 0.4% hydrogen peroxid...

The antioxidant activity of Aspergillus fumigatus was assayed by different procedures and correlated with its extracellular total phenolic contents. Different physio-chemical parameters were optimized to enhance the activity. The culture grown under stationary conditions for 10 days at 25°C at pH 7 gave the best antioxidant activity. Statistical approaches demonstrated sucrose and NaNO(3) to be...

Detachment of heme prosthetic groups from gaseous myoglobin ions has been studied by collision-induced dissociation and infrared multiphoton dissociation in combination with Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry. Multiply charged holomyoglobin ions (hMbn+) were generated by electrospray ionization and transferred to an ion cyclotron resonance cell, where the ions of intere...
