Time-of-flight neutron powder diffraction data have been collected from Na2MoO4 and Na2WO4 to a resolution of sin (θ)/λ = 1.25 Å(-1), which is substanti-ally better than the previous analyses using Mo Kα X-rays, providing roughly triple the number of measured reflections with respect to the previous studies [Okada et al. (1974 ▶). Acta Cryst. B30, 1872-1873; Bramnik & Ehrenberg (2004 ▶). Z. Ano...

Tungstate and molybdate phosphors have received great attention for their excellent photoluminescent properties thermal stabilities. In the article, Tb3+-activated tungstate green were prepared by a solid-state reaction method at different caline temperatures compared studied. The crystal structures morphologies of samples characterized X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns field emission scanning e...

Sodium hydroxide autoclaving is the main method for smelting scheelite in China. In this method, sodium phosphate added as an additive to realize highly efficient decomposition of scheelite, and a crude tungstate solution containing obtained. subsequent process ion exchange, phosphorus ions compete with resin adsorption tungstate, which reduces capacity endangers purity solution. To remove from...

When Escherichia coli was grown in the presence of tungstate, inactive forms of two molybdoenzymes, nitrate reductase and formate dehydrogenase, accumulated and were converted to their active forms upon incubation of cell suspensions with molybdate and chloramphenicol. The conversion to the active enzymes did not occur in cell extracts. When incubated with [(99)Mo]molybdate and chloramphenicol,...

Objective. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity and pH changes induced by Portland cement (PC) alone and in association with radiopacifiers. Methods. The materials tested were pure PC, PC + bismuth oxide, PC + zirconium oxide, PC + calcium tungstate, and zinc oxide and eugenol cement (ZOE). Antimicrobial activity was evaluated by agar diffusion test using the followi...

To investigate the regulation of HvNRT2, genes that encode high-affinity NO(3)(-) transporters in barley (Hordeum vulgare) roots, seedlings were treated with 10 mM NO(3)(-) in the presence or absence of amino acids (aspartate, asparagine, glutamate [Glu], and glutamine [Gln]), NH(4)(+), and/or inhibitors of N assimilation. Although all amino acids decreased high-affinity (13)NO(3)(-) influx and...

A linear relationship exists in oxide glasses between glass transition temperature (Tg) and quadrupole splitting ( A ) of Fe , + . DTA and Mössbauer measurements of silicate and tungstate glasses yielded large slopes of 680 and 260 °C/(mm s~ 1 ) f rom the slope of the straight lines when Fe + occupied, as network former (NWF), distorted tetrahedral Si and distorted octahedral W 6 + sites, respe...
