Studies of the Fe, Cu, and Zn isotopic compositions volcanic rocks sulfides provide an important tool for understanding magmatic, hydrothermal, alteration processes, thereby enabling determination both transition metal sources quantification petrologic environmental impacts hydrothermal activities. In this study, δ56Fe δ57Fe values mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORBs) are higher than those seafloor ...

A combined dry and wet fractionation process is proposed to extract faba bean proteins with lower environmental impact. This allowed recover 87% of the total seeds (92% dehulled proteins). achieved through production two protein concentrates (54 61% content w/w DM). After fractionation, extraction was performed on protein-depleted fraction. The presented consumed less energy 5.5 times water per...

Carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios of bone collagen are an established method for dietary reconstruction, but this method is limited by the protein preservation. Zinc (Zn) is found in bioapatite and the isotopic compositions of this element constitute a very promising dietary indicator. The extent of fractionation of Zn isotopes in marine environments, however, remains unknown. We report...

background: there are varieties of purification techniques for separation of human plasma proteins such as salting out, ion exchange chromatography, and ethanol fractionation. there are limitations for each method, for example in salting out method, the salt has to be removed in an additional step. ion exchange chromatography is difficult for scaling up, and plasma fractionation is a time consu...

Affinity chromatography on Chelating Sepharose Fast Flow Gel-Zn(2+) was used for fractionation of boar seminal plasma proteins. Approximately 30% of total boar seminal plasma proteins showed affinity for zinc ions (ZnBP fraction). Native electrophoresis (PAGE) of ZnBP revealed six protein fractions which separated into 27 bands under denaturing conditions (SDS/PAGE). Two-dimensional electrophor...

A new fast method for determination of mobile zinc fractions in soil is proposed in this work. The three-stage modified BCR procedure used for fractionation of zinc in soil was accelerated by using ultrasounds. The working parameters of an ultrasound probe, a power and a time of sonication, were optimized in order to acquire the content of analyte in soil extracts obtained by ultrasound-assiste...
