results the maximum si was obtained at the highest applied flip angle (45°). the linear relationship between si and nanoparticle concentration was seen up to 112.21 and 98.83 μmol fe/l for the short (10°) and the long (45°) flip angles, respectively (r2 = 0.95). these values were reduced up to 48.54 and 42.73 μmol fe/l for these flip angles with r2 of 0.99. conclusions the maximum si will be in...

most of the water treatment plants in iran discharge their sludge to the environment whithout consideration of possible side effects. since this kind of sludge is generally considered pollutant, the sludge treatment of water industry seems to be an essential task. obviously theweight and volume of solids produced during the coagulation process are much more than other wastes of water treatment ...

background: ultrasmallsuperparamagnetic iron oxide (uspio) nanoparticles are used as blood pool contrast agent for magnetic resonance angiography and perfusion imaging. our aim in this study was to investigate the effect of the two coating types of iron oxide nanoparticles on the relationship between nanoparticles concentration and signal intensity (si) in t1-weighted mr images.   methods : dif...

IMPORTANCE Although blood donation is allowed every 8 weeks in the United States, recovery of hemoglobin to the currently accepted standard (12.5 g/dL) is frequently delayed, and some donors become anemic. OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of oral iron supplementation on hemoglobin recovery time (days to recovery of 80% of hemoglobin removed) and recovery of iron stores in iron-depleted ("low...

in this work, we developed a method which combined the processes of acid-leaching, ammonium jarosite precipitating and electro-depositing to recover copper and nickel from electroplating sludge. residual sludge from an electroplating plant located in qingdao was used for acid-leaching, and more than 95% of copper, nickel, zinc, chromium and iron were extracted from the sludge. after acid-leachi...

Partition curves are widely used to determine the spiral separator efficiency. In this work, the partition curves were used in order to investigate the particle transportation to concentrate and tailing streams. Simulation of fine particle removal using the size-by-size partition curves showed that the recovery of gangue particles to concentrate can decrease 8.7%. It also showed that the recove...

Antibodies cross-reactive with specific membrane proteins were used to investigate membrane development in Anacystis nidulans R2 during recovery from iron stress. Polyclonal antibodies prepared using the iron-regulated chlorophyll (Chl)-protein CPVI-4 (HB Pakrasi, HC Riethman, LA Sherman 1985 Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 82: 6903-6907) as antigen were characterized and used to identify three iron str...

Vitamin C consumption is important in Iron absorption. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of acute aerobic activity after two weeks vitamin C supplementation on Iron status and hematological indices in club football players. In this quasi-experimental study, 40 club football players from Khuzestan province were randomly divided into two groups of vitamin C and pl...

In the present work, iron recovery from a low-grade hematite ore (containing less than 40% iron), which is not applicable in common methods of ironmaking, was studied. Non-coking coal was used as reducing agent. Reduction experiments were performed under various coal to hematite ratios and temperatures. Reduction degree was calculated using the gravimetric method. Reduced samples were subjected...
