The Oxford Whole Body Counter was used to measure absorption from various therapeutic preparations of iron in five groups of subjects. Succinic acid enhanced absorption of iron when added to a solution of ferrous fumarate, but not when given with tablets of ferrous fumarate or ferrous sulphate. Ferrous fumarate plus ascorbic acid was absorbed better than ferrous fumarate alone but no better tha...

Heating mixtures of sodium nitrite, cysteine, and either ferrous sulfate or ferric chloride at 121 C for 20 min at pH 6.5 or 6.3 produced a potent inhibitor of Clostridium perfringens vegetative cells and spores when added to previously heat-sterilized fluid thioglycolate medium. When the mixtures containing FeSO4 at pH 5.2 or FeCl3 at pH 2.7 were heated, the inhibitory effect was not produced....

The aim of this study was to determine the iron status of infants who consumed porridge cooked in water with added ferrous sulphate. A total of 234 infants, aged 6-12 months, were recruited from 36 nurseries in the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea (DPRK North Korea) and randomly divided into iron (Fe) and placebo groups. At baseline, almost half the children had Hb<110 g/L and no significan...

this study deals with bioleaching of the low grade uranium ore of saghand mine in iran using a mixed culture of mesophilic bacteria (acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, acidithiobacillus thiooxidans and leptospirillum ferrooxidans). experiments were carried out in shaking flask examining the effect of temperature, initial ferrous ion concentration, pulp density and particle size. variations of ph, ...

In this study, an Co/Fe coated porcelain using a cobalt and ferrous sulfate was sintered at 1,250 °C. The specimens were investigated by HR-XRD, FE-SEM (EDS), Dilatometer, UV-vis spectrophotometer. surface of the uniformly fused with pigment, white ware celadon body densely to certain thickness from surface. Other new compounds produced chemical reaction cobalt/ferrous during sintering process....

Laver belongs to the genius of Porphyra and is the most valuable seaweed in the aqua-culture industry. It contains higher iron than many other plant foods. The bioavailability of iron from laver was evaluated in a rat hemoglobin regeneration assay. Reagent-grade ferrous sulfate was used as the reference standard, and the relative biological value (RBV) for laver was expressed as a percentage of...

Tungsten trioxide (WO(3)) nanostructures were synthesized by hydrothermal method using sodium tungstate (Na(2)WO(4).2H(2)O) alone as starting material, and sodium tungstate in presence of ferrous ammonium sulfate [(NH(4))(2)Fe(SO(4))(2).6H(2)O] or cobalt chloride (CoCl(2).6H(2)O) as structure-directing agents. Orthorhombic WO(3) having a rectangular slab-like morphology was obtained when Na(2)W...
