Successful implementation of site-specific crop management relies on accurate quantification of spatial variation of important factors. Data collection on a finer spatial resolution than is feasible with manual and/or laboratory methods is often required but cost prohibitive. Therefore, there is a need for the development of sensors to more accurately characterize within-field variability. The ...

The reaction of silver nitrate and cafenstrole (N,N-diethyl-3-mesitylsulfonyl-1H-1,2,4-triazole-1-carboxamide), a triazole herbicide, leads to the title coordination polymer, [Ag(NO3)(C16H22N4O3S)] n , whose asymmetric unit comprises one cafenstrole ligand mol-ecule, one AgI atom and one nitrate ion. The AgI atom, with a distorted trigonal-pyramidal environment, is coordinated by one nitro-gen ...

An anaerobic, freshwater enrichment grew with either nitrate or selenate as an electron acceptor. With both ions present, nitrate reduction preceded selenate reduction. An isolate from the enrichment grew on either ion, but the presence of nitrate precluded the reduction of selenate. Stock cultures of denitrifiers grew anaerobically on nitrate but not on selenate.

The asymmetric unit of title compound, [Ce(NO(3))(3)(C(15)H(15)NO(2))(2)(CH(3)OH)], consists of two Schiff base 2-meth-oxy-6-[(4-methyl-phen-yl)iminiometh-yl]phenolate (HL) ligands, three nitrate anions and a methanol ligand. The Ce(III) ion is 11-coordinated: three nitrate radical anions coordinate to the Ce(III) ion through O atoms, two HL ligands chelate the Ce(III) ion through the O atoms o...

to investigate the impact of overexpression of atnrt2.1 transgene from arabidopsis on nitrate uptake rate and to understand the regulation of endogenous hats by nitrate and glutamine amino acid (gln) in tobacco plants, wild-type and transgenic (f line) plants grown on soil for 4 weeks were transferred to hydroponic culture in a controlled-environment with a 16/8h l:d photoperiod at 24? c/20...

A new analytical methodology for a simple and efficient on-line preconcentration of trace inorganic anions in water and salt samples prior to ion chromatographic determination is proposed. The preconcentration method is based on partition/ion-exclusion chromatographic ion stacking (PIEC ion stacking) with a hydrophilic polymer gel column containing a small amount of fixed anionic charges. The d...

In the title dinuclear salen-type complex, [CuEu(C(22)H(24)N(2)O(4))(NO(3))(3)(CH(3)OH)], the Cu(II) ion is five-coordinated to two imine N atoms and two phenolate O atoms and one O from the bridging nitrate group. The Eu(III) ion is ligated to three nitrate groups, four O atoms from the salen-type ligand and one methanol mol-ecule, leading to a distorted tenfold coordination for the rare earth...

Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment, 2012 he nitrate ion (NO3) (CAS No. 14797-55-8, atomic mass 62.0049 g·mol) is the most oxidized form of nitrogen (N) present in the environment with an oxidation state of +5 (NRC 1978). It is the conjugate base of nitric acid (HNO3), a strong acid which is completely dissociated in solution (NRC 1978). The nitrate salts of all common metals (e.g....

The water-coordinated Zn atom in the title monoaqua zinc nitrate adduct of 2-amino-pyrimidine, [Zn(NO(3))(2)(C(4)H(5)N(3))(2)(H(2)O)], is bonded to a monodentate nitrate ion and is chelated by the other nitrate ion. The heterocyclic ligands coordinate through ring N-donor sites. The coordination geometry about the Zn(II) atom is a distorted octa-hedron. Intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds occu...
