The "bound" Water of Biological Colloids: a Reply
نویسندگان
چکیده
The objection by Bull to the estimation of bound water by ultrafiltration, because of an assumed adsorption of the reference substance, has been found invalid for glucose. No adsorption of glucose by the proteins, casein and gelatin, could be detected. The estimation of the bound water of proteins from the probable surface adsorption of water by proteins leads to only a small value.

Optical Limiting Properties of Colloids Enhanced by Gold Nanoparticles Based on Nonlinear Refraction for Cw Laser Illumination
In this work, thermo-optical properties of gold nanoparticle colloids are studied using continuous wave (CW) laser irradiation at 532 nm. The nanoparticle colloids are fabricated by 18 ns pulsed laser ablation of pure gold plate in the distilled water. The formation of the nanoparticles has been evidenced by optical absorption spectra and transmission electron microscopy. The nonlinear optical ...
متن کاملNature of Bound Water in Colloidal Systems.
The state of water in colloidal systems is a controversial subject. Discovery of the colloidal state by GRAHAM (18) was followed by extensive studies by VAN BEMMELN (66, 67, 68, 69) and ZSIGMONDY (73, 74). Thermodynamic studies by KATZ (36) indicated significant changes in free energy and heat content in colloidal systemis at low water content. OVERTON (51) concluded that part of the water in a...
متن کاملThe Fluorescence Behavior and Stability of AgNPs Synthesized by Juglans Regia Green Husk Aqueous Extract
Particles with the size of 1-100 nm are known as nanoparticles (NPs). The widespread use of silver NPs (AgNPs) makes it familiar in different industries. They have unique properties as a result of their high surface to volume ratio, although aggregation of NPs interferes with their functions. This phenomenon has several side effects on the environment, the amount of which may depend on t...

Using of colloids and polymeric microparticles are gradually increasing. It is observed that the positive effects of particles stems in both traditional applications such as column pickings, coatings and paints to more recent technologies in diagnostics, drug delivery and optical devices are well documented. This review focuses on importance of colloids and covers their applications on three le...
متن کاملProducion of Nanoparticle Assemblies by Electro-Spraying and Freeze-Drying of Colloids: A New Method to Resolve Handling Problem of Nanoparticles
To resolve handling problem of nanoparticles, due to their small size, a new methodology of electro-spraying and freeze-drying was developed for colloidal nanoparticles of silica and titania to transform them to solid macro-scale nanoparticle assemblies. The assemblies were then redispersed in an aqueous system to investigate the effect of formulation of original solutions and the process ...
