-Chlorite-mica stacks (grains of intergrown chlorite and white mica) in a matrix of fine-grained white mica and chlorite have been studied using XRD, SEM, EMPA, TEM and AEM methods. The stacks occur in a weakly cleaved Llandoverian mudstone, central Wales, which has a white mica (illite) crystallinity index of 0.35 ° A20 corresponding to the lower anchizone. White mica occurs as packets (100/~ ...

for the first time, an unusual assemblage of talc-phengite-chlorite-k-feldspar was found in quartz schists from the sanandaj-sirjan zone in the nahavand area in western iran. the talc-bearing quartz schists occur as small bodies or lenses within pelitic schist layers and contain talc, phengite, chlorite, k-feldspar and quartz as major mineral constituents with subordinate amounts of calcite ...

The primary purpose of this chapter is to provide public health officials, physicians, toxicologists, and other interested individuals and groups with an overall perspective on the toxicology of chlorine dioxide and chlorite. It contains descriptions and evaluations of toxicological studies and epidemiological investigations and provides conclusions, where possible, on the relevance of toxicity...

Abdel-Rahman MS, Scatina J. 1985. The effect of Alcide ® , a new antimicrobial drug, on rat blood glutathione and erythrocyte osmotic fragility, in vitro.

-The adsorption of Ni(II) and Cu(II) on to the clay minerMs kaolinite, chlorite, and illite has been investigated. The quantity of Ni(II) at pH 6 and Cu(II) at pH 5 adsorbed has been found to vary in the manner chlorite > illite > kaolinite. Examination of the mode of bonding of the metal ions to the clay minerals using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) has been carried out. Comparison of ...

Two types of pure cellulose, Avicel PH-101 and Whatman filter paper, were treated with an acid-chlorite delignification procedure in the presence of varying amounts of incorporated lignin, and the molecular weight distributions and degrees of polymerization (DP) of derivatized cellulose were determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Avicel samples with 0% added lignin showed a DP reduc...

This work investigated the potential for biocatalytic degradation of micropollutants, focusing on chlorine oxyanions as model contaminants, by mining biology to identify promising biocatalysts. Existing isozymes of chlorite dismutase (Cld) were characterized with respect to parameters relevant to this high volume, low-value product application: kinetic parameters, resistance to catalytic inacti...
