In 1998, the Aznalcóllar mine tailings dyke in southwestern Spain broke, flooding the Agrio-Guadiamar river system with acid tailings up to the borders of one of the largest breeding colonies of white storks in the western Palearctic, Dehesa de Abajo. Over the following years, a high proportion of nestlings developed leg defects not seen before the spill, prompting this study. Nestlings with de...

The yield of triptane from the reaction of methanol with zinc iodide is dramatically increased by addition of phosphorous or hypophosphorous acid, via transfer of hydride from a P-H bond to carbocationic intermediates.

The influence of changes in the contracted Gaussian basis set used for ab initio calculations of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) phosphorous chemical shift anisotropy (CSA) tensors was investigated. The isotropic chemical shift and chemical shift anisotropy were found to converge with increasing complexity of the basis set at the Hartree-Fock (HF) level. The addition of d polarization function...

Background: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative diseases (ND). Studies have demonstrated that biochemical markers have an association with PD. We aimed to investigate an association of biochemical markers including calcium, vitamin D, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), parathormone (PTH), and phosphorous with PD. Methods: This study was conducted on 139 PD patients an...

to study the possible use of phytase and yeast (saccharomyces cervisiae) in corn-soy bean meal base diet with different levels of available phosphorous in arbor acers broiler chicks, an experiment was conducted with 264 day old chicks of an average weight of 44.6 grams each. a completely randomized design of 6 treatments and 4 replications (11 chicks per replicate) for periods of starter, growe...

Automotive catalysts can be exposed to various poisonous substances that cause physical or chemical deactivation. One of such poisons is phosphorous, which originates from lubricant oils. This study focuses on the phosphorus deactivation Pd/SSZ-13 used as a passive NOx adsorber (PNA). A clear caused by was observed, and it increased increasing content phosphorous. It concluded phosphorous both ...

The effect of nitrogen status on phosphorous uptake and translocation was examined in 6-day-old dark-grown decapitated maize seedlings exposed to 25 micromolar phosphorous. Transfer to complete solutions containing 1 millimolar ammonium resulted in an increase in phosphorous uptake rate after 6 to 8 hours. The stimulus remained effective for at least 5.5 hours upon subsequent transfer to nitrog...
