Biological Treatment of Mercury Waste
A widely used method for removing mercury from polluted water is addition of sodium sulfide. Insoluble mercuric sulfide (HgS), which forms is removed as a sludge (Price et al. 1972) that is then landfilled. It has been assumed that HgS remains permanently insoluble, thus preventing movement of mercury into the surrounding environment. Mercury waste has been treated and buried in this manner for...
متن کاملInvited Review Paper FUNCTIONALLY BIOPOLYMER SYSTEMS
Advances in functionally biopolymer systems have provided new opportunities on basic science studies and bioengineering applications. In this review, the recent data on interaction mechanisms of synthetic polyelectrolytes with proteins and physico-chemical criteria for the construction of functionally biopolymer systems are reviewed. Also, the structure and structural-chemical features of prote...
متن کاملCooperativity in biological systems
Living organisms can sense and respond to external and internal stimuli. Response isdemonstrated in many forms including modulation of gene expression profiles, motility,secretion, cell death, etc. Nevertheless, all forms share a basic property: they depend on sensingsmall changes in the concentration of an effector molecule or subtle conformational changes ina protein and invoking the appropri...
متن کاملRationing in health systems: A critical review
Background: It is difficult to provide health care services to all those in need of such services due to limited resources and unlimited demands. Thus, priority setting and rationing have to be applied. This study aimed at critically examining the concept of rationing in health sector and identifying its purposes, influencing factors, mechanisms, and outcomes. Methods: The c...
متن کاملA Review on the Importance of Hormones Monitoring and Their Removal in Conventional Wastewater Treatment Systems
Introduction: Micro pollutants have become one of the most important environmental concerns around the world. These natural and synthetic compounds have been called Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) due to their interfere with the normal function of the endocrine system in humans and animals. They include natural and synthetic hormones and their metabolites, surfactant, insecticide, as well...
