When barley roots absorb Na(+) at concentrations ranging from 1 to 50 mm, in the presence of low concentrations of Ca(2+) and K(+), absorption of Na(+) is mediated by carrier mechanism 2 of alkali cation transport, mechanism 1 being unavailable for Na(+) transport under these conditions. The absorption isotherm depicting the rate of Na(+) absorption as a function of the external Na(+) concentra...

Magnetic activated carbon (KAM) is used as an absorbent or adsorbent based on coconut shell which has been with sodium bicarbonate. The added to the iron composite produces KAM. content in ability absorb and facilitate separation process adsorbate. purpose of this study was determine adsorbate, namely pyrrole monomer compound. characterized using Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR) instrument fu...

BACKGROUND The lethal isotherm for radiofrequency catheter ablation of cardiac myocardium is widely accepted to be 50°C, but this has not been directly measured. The purpose of this study was to directly measure the tissue temperature at the edge of radiofrequency lesions in real time using infrared thermal imaging. METHODS AND RESULTS Fifteen radiofrequency lesions of 6 to 240 seconds in dur...

Polyaniline titanotungstate (PATiW) was synthesized by the sol-gel method. Adsorption isotherm studies of Cs from aqueous solution are described. Elemental Composition, chemical solubility, ion-exchange capacity (IEC) and pH titration are studied. Distribution coefficients (Kd) for ten metal ions have been determined. It was found that the polyaniline titanotungstate has high affinity and high ...

The inverse method is a numerical method for fast estimation of adsorption isotherm parameters directly from a few overloaded elution profiles and it was recently extended to adsorption isotherm acquisition in gradient elution conditions. However, the inverse method in gradient elution is cumbersome due to the complex adsorption isotherm models found in gradient elution. In this case, physicoch...

Water pollution caused by the lead(II) from the spent liquor has caught much attention. The research from the theoretical model to application fundaments is of vital importance. In this study, lead(II) adsorption isotherms are investigated using a series of hybrid membranes containing mercapto groups (-SH groups) as the hybrid adsorbents. To determine the best fitting equation, the experimental...

The sorption isotherm ( desorption and adsorption ) of okro fruit was determined at three temperatures of 300C,400C and 500C within the range of 1090% Relative humidity (RH). Thymol solution was placed inside the desiccators to prevent microbial growth, particularly at the relative humidity above 65%. Gravimetric method was used for the sorption isotherm where the reading and recording was take...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study is to research the lesion outline and temperature field in different ways in atrial radiofrequency ablation by using finite element method. METHODS This study used the method which considered the thermal dosage to determine the boundary between viable and dead tissue, and compared to the 50 °C isotherm results in analyzing lesion outline. Besides, we used Hype...
