Nitric oxide is known to coordinate to ferrous heme proteins very tightly, following which it is susceptible to reaction with molecular oxygen or free NO. Its coordination to ferric heme is generally weaker but the resultant complexes are more stable in the presence of oxygen. Here we report determination of the binding constants of Cytochrome P450 BM3 for nitric oxide in the ferric state in th...

Crystal structures of the complexes formed between cytochrome c peroxidase and cyanide, nitric oxide, carbon monoxide, and fluoride have been determined and refined to 1.85 A. In all four complexes significant changes occur in the distal heme pocket due to movement of Arg-48, His-52, and a rearrangement of active site water molecules. In the cyanide, nitric oxide, and carbon monoxide complexes,...

in this study, magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (fe3o4) with the size range of 20-30 nm were prepared by the modified controlled chemical co-precipitation method from the solution of ferrous/ferric mixed salt-solution in alkaline medium. in this process polyethylene glycol was used as a surfactant to prevent the solution from agglomeration. the prepared magnetic nanoparticles were characterize...

The continuous tunability of iron oxide nanoparticle dimensions is demonstrated using the pH controlled loading of ferric nitrate from aqueous solution into polystyrene-block-polyacrylic acid reverse micelles deposited on a silicon substrate. Quasi-hexagonally ordered two-dimensional arrays of iron oxide nanoparticles with a systematic tunability of particle heights in the sub-10 nm regime and ...

Ferric oxide, hematite, "red rust" , it has a lot of names but there is no argument that it is undesirable. It is a loosely adhering oxide layer which has poor heat transfer capabilities. It also tends to deposit elsewhere in the system. It can deposit in the coil, in steam traps and piping downstream, and can eventually reach the boiler. In the boiler it can form further deposits, which in tur...

The compounds, lanthanium chromite, lanthanium magnetite and lanthanium ferric oxide were prepared through sol-gel methods in powdered form, then calcinated, peletized, and sintered at various temperatures. Electrical conductivity of these compounds was measured at various temperatures. The effectiveness of strontium as a dopant on electrical conductivity was also investigated. Electrical condu...

Bonding between laboratory light-cured composite and surface treated Au-Ag-Pd alloy was investigated using newly developed 4-META/MMA-TBB opaque resin. Shear bond strength after 20,000 thermocycles obtained from heated alloy with this method was 25.1 MPa. Ion-coated specimen showed 25.6 MPa after 50,000 thermocycles with decrease in bond strength being small. Ferric chloride treated specimen, h...

A total of 1110 broiler cockerels were used in three experiments to determine the availability of iron and copper from various sources. A skim milk basal diet was fed in each experiment using chicks maintained in battery brooders beginning at one day of age. Four organic iron compounds (sequestered iron A' and ferric choline chloride in Experiment 1 and sequestered iron B and C in Experiment 2)...
