Synthesis of magnesium nickel oxide phase such as MgxNi1-xO solid solutions has been studied in this research article using mechnochmical reaction between magnesium and nickel oxide. Mixtures of magnesium powder and nickel oxide (Mg+NiO) with stoichiometric compositions were milled for different times in a planetary ball mill. Reduction reaction of nickel oxide by magnesium via a mechanically i...

Nickel compounds are recognized to cause nasal and lung cancers. Magnesium is an effective protector against nickel-induced carcinogenesis in vivo, although its mechanisms of protection remain elusive. The effects of magnesium carbonate on the cytotoxicity and genotoxicity induced by nickel subsulfide were examined with respect to the inhibition of cell proliferation, micronuclei formation, DNA...

Sodium chloride has been proved that it is an effective promoter for the reduction of high-magnesium, low-nickel oxide ore. The aim of current work is to clarify the promotion behavior of sodium chloride in the roasting reduction process. The influence of moisture on the reduction of ore in the presence of sodium chloride is studied to get clear comprehension of promotion process. In the presen...

Zinc electrowinning is performed with the application of a current through insoluble electrodes (Pb-Ag), causing the electrolysis of zinc sulfate, with or without impurities, and zinc deposition on the cathode of aluminum. The impurities can reduce the current efficiency and increase the energy consumption in zinc electrolysis. In this work, the effect of nickel and magnesium on zinc electrodep...

background: hypomagnesaemia is one of the main side effects of cisplatin-based chemotherapy regimens in cancer patients. the aim of the current investigation was to evaluate the effect of oral magnesium oxide (mgo) supplementation on cisplatin-induced hypomagnesemia. methods: this parallel-randomized controlled, open label trial was conducted in a hospital of iran university of medical sciences...

Natural gas may be used instead of hydrogen as fuel for the molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) by steam reforming the natural gas inside the MCFC, using a nickel catalyst (internal reforming). The severe conditions inside the MCFC, however, require that the catalyst has a very high stability. In order to find suitable types of nickel catalysts and to obtain more knowledge about the deactivation ...

ofcells to carcinogenic nickel compounds induces many genes that are commonly expressed in cancer cells but not in normal cells. Nickel compounds have been well established as human carcinogens. Investigations into the molecular mechanisms of nickel car-cinogenesis have revealed that not all nickel compounds are equally carcinogenic: certain water-insoluble nickel compounds exhibit potent carci...

The ability of the physiologically essential divalent metals calcium and magnesium to inhibit the tumorigenic activities of lead and nickel towards the lungs of strain A mice was investi gated. The tumorigenic salts lead(ll) subacetate and nickel(ll) acetate were injected i.p. at their maximal tolerated doses (0.04 mmol/kg/injection of each metal) for a total of 24 injections, whenever possible...

Green protocols for the synthesis of nanoparticles have been attracting a lot of attention because they are eco-friendly, rapid, and cost-effective. Nickel and nickel oxide nanoparticles have been synthesized by green routes and characterized for impact of green chemistry on the properties and biological effects of nanoparticles in the last five years. Green synthesis, properties, and applicati...
