chelating resins based on polyacrylonitrile and diethylenetriamine (pan-dta) wereprepared through the simple reaction of polyacrylonitrile with various volume percents ofdiethylenetriamine (dta), (25, 50, 75 and 100). the prepared resins were applied to removeheavy metal ions such as cu(ii), zn(ii) and cd(ii) from aqueous solutions. the sorptionbehaviors of the resins for these metal ions were ...

using uv-vis spectrophotometric method, the formation constant for interaction of fe2+(aq) ion with l-alaninewas experimentally studied at ph = 4.1 ± 0.01 (50mm of potassium hydrogen phthalate buffer), ionic strengthof 0.1m potassium nitrate and at 5 different temperatures 15,20, 25,30 and 35 t. the optical absorption spectraof mixtures containing considered cation and l-alanine were analyzed b...

the trace element contents on the surface originated from mineralization would depend to the thickness of the calcrete layer above the ore deposit on the surface. a very thick layer of calcrete may not allow for much dispersion of the elements of interest in the surface. these elements may be concentrated in non-magnetic and magnetic part of calcrete. based on the current research, mineralogica...

background: combination of glycation and oxidation is associated with diabetes mellitus. the aim of this study was to clarify the effect of glycated proteins in presence of transition metal ions on production of reactive oxygen species (ros) in rat hepatocyte suspension.  methods: glycated albumin was prepared by incubation of bovine serum albumin with 100 mm glucose in 0.3 m phosphate buffer a...

in present study, molecular dynamics simulation of cadmium (ii), lead (ii) and copper (ii) removal from aqueous electrolyte solutions using the ion-exchange process with the zeolite particles was done. the results showed that, most of the particles had the highest affinity of ion exchanging with lead (ii) and the lowest affinity with copper (ii). the calculated mean ion-exchange ratios showed t...

novel collagen-based hydrogel nanocomposites were synthesized by graft copolymerization of acrylamide and maleic anhydrid in the presence of different amounts of montmorillonite, using methylenebisacrylamide (mba)and ammonium persulfate (aps) as crosslinker and initiator, respectively. the optimum amount of clay on the swelling properties of the samples was studied. it was found that the hydrog...

a binding study of nickel ions by a new recombinant human growth hormone (hgh), produced as an injected drug, has been done at 27˚c in nacl solution (50 mm) using an isothermal titration calorimetry. there is a set of three identical and non-interacting binding sites for nickel ions. the intrinsic dissociation equilibrium constant and the molar enthalpy of binding are 40 μm and -16.5 kj/mol, re...

the biosorption of heavy metals can be an effective process for the removal of such metal ions from aqueous solutions. in this study, the adsorption properties of nonliving biomass of phanerochaete chrysosporium for pb (ii) and zn (ii) were investigated by the use of batch adsorption techniques. the effects of initial metal ion concentration, initial ph, biosorbent concentration, stirring speed...
