abstract aims: chemical precipitation is a simple, efficient, and cost-effective method for eliminating heavy metals found in landfill leachate. the aim of the present study was to compare the efficacy rates of cadmium removal with the coagulants like poly aluminum chloride and lime using chemical precipitation method. materials & methods: in this experimental study, the raw studied samples wer...

introduction this study was intended to evaluate the nutritional value, phenolic compounds and digestibility coefficients of barberry leaves. berberis vulgaris is one of the major crops in the province. the province has more than 70 percent and 95 percent of the total area under cultivation of barberry. waste and foliage of barberry harvest traditionally used to feed livestock tannin concentrat...

Calcium-bound phosphoryl oligosaccharides (POs-Ca) were prepared from potato starch. Their solubility and in situ absorbability as a calcium source were investigated by comparing with the soluble calcium compounds, calcium chloride and calcium lactate, or insoluble calcium compounds, calcium carbonate and dibasic calcium phosphate. The solubility of POs-Ca was as high as that of calcium chlorid...

objective(s) four novel losartan analogues 5a-d were synthesized by connecting a dihydropyridine nucleus to imidazole ring. the effects of 5a and 5b on angiotensin receptors (at') and l-type calcium channels were investigated on isolated rat aorta. materials and methods aortic rings were pre-contracted with 1 pm angiotensin ii or 80 mm kcl and relaxant effects of losartan, nifedipine, 5a a...

objective(s) calcium-channel blockers have an important role in the treatment of several cardiovascular disorders. derivatives of 1, 4-dihydropyridine are one of the most potent calcium antagonists. in this study four novel ', 4-dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers were synthesized and their hypotensive properties were investigated in male rats. materials and methods four 1, 4-dihydrop...

Model compounds which resemble the calcium phosphates deposited in biological systems have been synthesised, characterised by a variety of physical techniques and their EXAFS spectra recolded abo~c, the calcium K edge. The spectrum of one of the compounds, hydroxyapatite, has been ;in:~iysecl and the results used to aid the analysis of spectra from related compounds. Spectra recorded above the ...

Chlorine is usually combined with inorganic compounds, such as sodium or calcium, to produce hypochlorites, which are effective disinfectants. Chlorine mixed with sodium is a liquid bleach known as sodium hypochlorite NaOCl. Chlorine mixed with calcium is usually in granular or tablet form and is called calcium hypochlorite Ca(OCL)2. Chlorine may also be available as chlorine dioxide (ClO2). Ho...
