Hydrogen sulphide is still a potential hazard in several occupations"2 and especially in sulphate pulp mills (P Jappinen, academic dissertation) and oil refineries. Blood sulphide may be used as an indicator of an excessive human hydrogen sulphide exposure. Fatal hydrogen sulphide concentrations are known.34 Blood sulphide concentrations have been determined before by ion selective electrodes c...

Detailed magnetostratigraphic studies of Late Neogene siliciclastic sediments of the Awatere Group, South Island, New Zealand (41°45'S, 174°05'E) have revealed a wide range of palaeomagnetic behaviour. Examination of rock magnetic properties was undertaken using conventional palaeomagnetic techniques and thermomagnetic, X-ray diffraction and electron microprobe analyses. These analyses indicate...

Extended ICP-OES and AAS analysis of floated polysulphide concentrate from the Asgat polymetallic ore revealed that contains 0.91% silver, 18.2% copper, 19.4% antimony, 2.03% arsenic 1.6% bismuth together with other elements. The prevailing minerals in are tetrahedrite, bismuthinite, chalcopyrite, arsenopyrite pyrite non-ore i.e. siderite, muscovite quartz. content above was estimated by X-ray ...

Academic insignia of the Faculty Chemical Technology UCT Prague have a history and are used in academic ceremonies (graduation, ceremonial scientific councils, awarding honorary doctorates, etc.). Insignia consists single chain with medal scepter. They made gold-plated silver decorated natural synthetic precious stones. The central motif head sceptre is pentagonal dodecahedron cut from sulphide...

Oxygen consumption, ATP production and cytochrome c oxidase activity of isolated mitochondria from body-wall tissue of Arenicola marina were measured as a function of sulphide concentration, and the effect of inhibitors of the respiratory complexes on these processes was determined. Concentrations of sulphide between 6 and 9 µmol l-1 induced oxygen consumption with a respiratory control r...

The corrosion behaviour of copper was studied in anoxic solutions containing different concentrations of sulphide (10–10 mol L) and chloride (0?1–5 mol L) under stagnant and controlled convective conditions. The main determinants of the structure and properties of the copper sulphide (Cu2S) films formed are the rate of sulphide transport to the surface relative to the rate of its interfacial re...

Dental care is an essential phenomenon in human health. Oral pathogens can cause severe break which may show the way to serious issues in human disease like blood circulation and coronary disease. In the current study, we demonstrated the synthesis and antimicrobial activity of cadmium sulphide and zinc sulphide nanoparticles against oral pathogens. The process for the synthesis of cadmium sulp...
