a binding study of nickel ions by a new recombinant human growth hormone (hgh), produced as an injected drug, has been done at 27˚c in nacl solution (50 mm) using an isothermal titration calorimetry. there is a set of three identical and non-interacting binding sites for nickel ions. the intrinsic dissociation equilibrium constant and the molar enthalpy of binding are 40 μm and -16.5 kj/mol, re...

algae have been proven efficient biological vectors for heavy metal uptake. in order to further study their biosorption potential, two strains spirogyra sp. and spirulina sp. have been studied under different initial metal concentrations. in recent years, the biosorption processes have been studied extensively using microbial biomass as biosorbent for heavy metal ions removal. in these studies...

in this study caulerpa racemosa has been characterized and used for the removal of cd(ii) and pb (ii) from aqueous solutions. the effect of ph, adsorbent dosage, contact time and temperature on adsorption process was studied in batch experiments. langmuir and freundlich models were applied to describe the biosorption isotherm of the metal ions by c. racemosa biomass. the adsorption data can be ...

Metal ions are critical for catalysis by many RNA and protein enzymes. To understand how these enzymes use metal ions for catalysis, it is crucial to determine how many metal ions are positioned at the active site. We report here an approach, combining atomic mutagenesis with quantitative determination of metal ion affinities, that allows individual metal ions to be distinguished. Using this ap...

There is a set of three identical and non-interacting binding sites for binding of all these metal ions, expect . The intrinsic association equilibrium constants () are not very different for  and , and also their molar enthalpies of binding (KJ/mol for  and  KJ/mo...

salicylic acid-formaldehyde-m-cresol (sfm) terpolymer had been synthesized in dmf media by conventional method. the resulting resin had been characterized by ftir spectra, elemental and thermogravimetric analyses. the morphology of sfm resin had been studied by sem and optical photograph. various parameters like rate of equilibration, effect of ph on ion exchange capacity and effect of concentr...

metal ions are the main impurities of water and media ingredients used in fermentation processes. in this research, the effect of ca+2, co+2, cu+2, fe+2, mg+2, mn+2 and zn+2 as chloride and sulfate salts was studied on the clavulanic acid production and streptomyces clavuligerus growth. all chloride salts had negative effect on clavulanic acid production and no clavulanic acid was produced in t...

A binding study of nickel ions by a new recombinant human Growth Hormone (hGH), produced as an injected drug, has been done at 27˚C in NaCl solution (50 mM) using an isothermal titration calorimetry. There is a set of three identical and non-interacting binding sites for nickel ions. The intrinsic dissociation equilibrium constant and the molar enthalpy of binding are 40 μM and -16...

In this research, graphene oxide (GO) was functionalized by tannic acid to produce GO-TA and fabricate a novel functionalized graphene oxide/ polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibrous as an adsorbent in order to remove two hazardous heavy metals from aqueous solutions. The results showed that the composite adsorbent can properly adsorb Pb2+ and Cd2+ metal cations, due to having the numerous potential...
