In this study, the effect of various doses of ouabain (1, 2, and 5 mg/kg, i.p.) on weight and flow rate of submandibular gland (SMG) and changes in zinc and copper levels in pure saliva and serum of rats was investigated. The time interval between injection of drug and sampling was 30 min. In addition, the effect of a single and toxic dose of ouabain (5 mg/kg, i.p.) in various time intervals (3...

The effects of the presence of copper on the photooxidation of phenol and 4-chlorophenol and of the presence of the phenols on the recovery of copper by electrodeposition are studied in three systems: a photolytic cell in the presence and absence of TiO2 as a catalyst or H2O2 as an oxidant; an electrolytic cell and a combined photolytic-electrolytic system. The optimum system for the simultaneo...

recovery of gold and other valuable metals from electronic scrap involves a complex metallurgical flow sheet and requires state-of-the-art recovery technologies that are available in large-scale, integrated smelter and refinery operations. at the end of their use, electronic and other electrical product scrap offer an important recycling potential for the secondary supply of gold and silver int...

Copper smelter slag and copper smelter slag flotation tailings were leached using sulphuric acid solutions, without or with the addition of either ferric sulphate or hydrogen peroxide. Copper extraction from the slag was typically found to be twice as high as that from the slag flotation tailings. Hydrogen peroxide was determined to be the best lixiviant. Thus, copper and iron extractions were ...

After gold recovery using silicon powder from an ammonium thiosulfate leaching solution containing copper（II）sulfate（oxidizing agent for dissolution）, copper was also recovered. a certain period of time, redissolution occurred. Then redissolved. The depletion in the during process leads to redissolution.

The occurrence of copper in the blood of man and various animals has been known for a long time but until recently most of the analyses for blood copper were made inbidental to other studies. The recorded observations on this subject have been summarized in the papers by Locke et al. (l), Sarata (i), Roncato and Bassani (3), and Tompsett (4). With the discovery of the essential nature of copper...

Prosopis juliflora (Sw.) DC. (Fabaceae Mimosoideae), commonly known as Ghaf Bahri or Velvet Mesquite, an introduced exotic tree species in Oman is considered as a noxious weed. Efforts to contain this tree are labor intensive and expensive. Therefore, an efficient use of this species for socioeconomic and environmental benefits in Oman must be considered seriously. This study initiates a feasib...

A new method for the determination of trace copper(II) in food samples by Cloud Point Extraction(CPE) combined with Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry(FAAS) is presented and evaluated. The method is based on the fact that hydrophobic complex of copper(II) with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (DDTC) was formed at pH 6.0 and subsequently the hydrophobic complex was extracted into surfactant-r...
