The formation of vanadate oligomeric species is often disregarded in studies on vanadate effects in biological systems, particularly in vivo, even though they may interact with high affinity with many proteins. We report the effects in fish hepatic tissue of an acute intravenous exposure (12, 24 h and 7 days) to two vanadium(V) solutions, metavanadate and decavanadate, containing different vana...

Good control of the solution pH and temperature is required to recover vanadium from water leaching ore after sodium roasting. However, such adjustments could lead aluminum-vanadium sodium-vanadium co-precipitation, which greatly affects efficiency recovery. In this study, a process that can increase recovery as ammonium metavanadate [NH4VO3] polyvanadate [(NH4)2V6O16·H2O] was investigated by e...

The contribution of decameric vanadate species to vanadate toxic effects in cardiac muscle was studied following an intravenous administration of a decavanadate solution (1mM total vanadium) in Sparus aurata. Although decameric vanadate is unstable in the assay medium, it decomposes with a half-life time of 16 allowing studying its effects not only in vitro but also in vivo. After 1, 6 and 12h ...

new forms of vanadium oxide nanoporous were fabricated using a simple chemical synthesis method. vanadium pentoxide (v2o5) nanoporous were synthesized by sodium metavanadate as precursor and ethylene glycol as surfactant. the samples were characterized by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (hrtem), field effect scanning electron microscopy (fesem) and x-ray diffraction (xrd), four...

Little information is available on the effects of vanadium ion on microbiological systems. At least three investigators have reported that salts of vanadium may be stimulatory to the growth in vitro of species of mycobacteria when these organisms are grown in the absence of iron. Frouin (1912) found that growth of the bovine tubercle bacillus was aided by addition of the sodium salt of vanadium...

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic illness causing considerable morbidity and mortality. Enormous advances have been made in medical care but more people are still having tendency to use herbal or alternative remedies. This study is a randomized, controlled trial on type 2 diabetic patients. The subject consisted of 60 patients divided randomly into three groups and supple-mented daily with ...

New forms of vanadium oxide Nanoporous were fabricated using a simple chemical synthesis method. Vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) Nanoporous were synthesized by sodium metavanadate as precursor and ethylene glycol as surfactant. The samples were characterized by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), field effect scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), Four...

The solution chemistry of a series of mono-, di- and trilacunary Keggin silicotungstates was investigated by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and general electrospray features especially for lacunary POMs are summarized. The reactions of vanadium incorporation into the lacunary structures were successfully monitored in real-time by a combination of ESI-MS and differential puls...
