Solution proton NMR has been used here to show that, as either the high-spin ferric, protohemin (PH) substrate complex at neutral pH, or the low-spin ferric, cyanide-inhibited PH substrate complex, the active site electronic and molecular structure of the 233- and 265-residue recombinant constructs of human heme oxygenase-1, hHO, are essentially indistinguishable. It is shown, moreover, that th...

water resource scarcity, population growth, pollution of surface and groundwater by discharging toxic wastewater and subsequent diseases may raise the necessity of reusing and treatment of wastewater. cyanide is one of the toxic materials which can be found in some industrial wastewaters. strict laws set by international bodies have forced industries to work on developing efficient cyanide remo...

The catalytic activity of a series diiron complexes based on the {Fe 2 Cp (CO) x } core (x = 2–3) and containing bridging aminocarbyne ligand was screened in transfer hydrogenation reaction cyclohexanone from isopropanol. includes cationic tricarbonyl complexes, [1a – d]CF 3 SO , neutral derivatives obtained by substitution one carbonyl with hydride ( 2a c ), cyanide 3a d ) or chloride 4a ligan...

The S.C. Aurul S.A. is a joint venture company owned by the Esmeralda from Australia and the "Remin" National Company of Precious and Non-ferrous Metals in Romania, established in 1992. The design concept was to transport the mining waste away from the city, while the gold and silver in the tailings could be recovered, using efficient and modern technology that was not available at the time the...

Phytoremediation counts as a major method for future which essentially needs resistance to contaminating agents. We pretreated the plants (Salix babylonica, as a model plant in phytoremediation of polluted waters) by sodium cyanide (0, 3 and 5 mg CN- L-1) to induce resistance with regard to acclimation and then examined their resistance to higher concentrations of cyanide. Accordingly, some of ...

Cyanide ions are known to be lethal for insects and mammals harmful the environment, new methods their selective detection in high demand. Herein, mechanosynthesis of simple Schiff’s bases-based probes S1–S3 visual CN− anion is reported. These were obtained by means a reaction between isomeric 4,4-, 3,3- 2,2-diaminobiphenyls 4-nitrobenzaldehyde under ball milling conditions. The showed selectiv...

samples of the waste rock obtained from marofengin south africa ground 60, 70 and 80% passing 75µm were leached with cyanide in bottle roll tests. the results obtained showed that the percentage gold dissolution depends more on the ore size consists than on the cyanide concentration with the highest average dissolution rates of 88.75, 94.34 and 95.90% found at 600, 500 and 500 ppm, for 60, 70 a...

1. Hydrogen cyanide inhibited acetoacetate decarboxylase only when incubated with the enzyme in the presence of car-bony1 compounds. This resulted in an inhibitory synergism between hydrogen cyanide and carbonyl compounds. This synergism was used to investigate the comparative abilities of various carbonyl compounds to form Schiff’s bases at the active site of the enzyme. The order of effective...
