introduction: biosorption of heavy metals can be an effective process for the removal of heavy metal ions from aqueous solutions. also, living lichens are known to accumulate metals across their surface. materials and methods: in this study, the biosorption of cadmium ions cd (ii) by the lichens acarospora strigata, lecanora muralis and caloplaca aurantia was investigated in aqueous solution in...

the kinetic study of the condensation reaction between phloroglucinol and acetone was investigated at 30, 35, 40 and 45±0.05 °c in 100% methanol. the hydrochloric acid concentrations used were 0.0261, 0.0364, 0.0577 and 0.0728 m. the reaction was investigated with and without a promoter, thioglycollic acid (tga), and taking into account the functionality (h) of phloroglucionol. the reaction was...

background: embryo selection is a vital part of in vitro fertilization (ivf) programs, with morphology-based grading systems having been widely used for decades. time-lapse imaging combined with embryo morph kinetics may proffer a non-invasive means for improving embryo selection. we report the first ongoing and chemical pregnancies using time-lapse embryo scope to select best embryos for trans...

conclusions the ammonia degassing is a simple and suitable technology for ammonia removal at high concentration. undesirable removal efficiency (17%, 35.5% and 31%) can be occurred in suitable ph 11 in the presence of lower ammonia concentrations (50, 100 and 200 mg/l). results according to obtained results, the maximum removal efficiencies were determined 17%, 35.5%, 31%, 66%, and 85.5%, for 5...

background: the aim of this study was to propose a new stochastic model to study the time course of ethanol elimination in human bodies. methods: the times and amount of alcohol ingested are assumed to be random in controllable intervals. constant elimination rate follows zero order kinetics and is replaced by first order kinetics when the effects of alcohol increase due to alcohol ingestion. s...

two different growth media, namely complex and defined media, were used to examine establishment of steady-state conditions in phosphate-limited culture system of saccharomyces cerevisiae cen.pk113-5d strain. using the defined growth medium, it was possible to obtain steady state condition in the continuous culture. the effect of phosphate concentration on the growth of s. cerevisiae in phospha...

Phase-type distributions constitute a very versatile class of distributions. They have been used in a wide range of stochastic modelling applications in areas as diverse as telecommunications, finance, biostatistics, queueing theory, drug kinetics, and survival analysis. Their use in modelling systems in the healthcare industry, however, has so far been limited. In this paper we introduce phase...

an attempt has been made in this paper to investigate the effect of particle size distribution on coal flotation kinetics. the effect of particle size (ps) on kinetics constant (k) and maximum theoretical flotation recovery (ri) was investigated while other operational parameters were kept constant. the relationship between flotation kinetics constant and theoretical flotation recovery with par...

That's it, a book to wait for in this month. Even you have wanted for long time for releasing this book the mechanism of action of insulin; you may not be able to get in some stress. Should you go around and seek fro the book until you really get it? Are you sure? Are you that free? This condition will force you to always end up to get a book. But now, we are coming to give you excellent solution.

background: like several other parasites, teladorsagia circumcincta secretes or excretes urea, but nei-ther the rate of efflux nor the possible metabolic sources of the urea has been considered. methods: parasites were maintained by passage through sheep. urea efflux was measured using phe-nol/hypochlorite after treatment with urea aminohydrolase. the kinetics of creatine amidinohy-drolase and ...
