A women with beta-thalassemia intermedia, and iron overload following many years' treatment with oral iron, was treated with subcutaneous desferrioxamine. During the course of this treatment she developed tinnitus, which was considered to be a rare complication of the use of this chelating agent. The mechanism of this effect is not understood.

The molecular magnet material, cobalt-Prussian Blue, has been synthesized using chitosan as a morphological structure-directing agent. The strong chelating ability of the biopolymer ensures that the inorganic phase remains nanoparticulate. SQUID magnetometry reveals that the nanoparticles exhibit a sharp ferrimagnetic to paramagnetic transition at 16 K.

Chelating agents’ application for well stimulation is gaining more and interest, as they can perform under harsh conditions. However, the mutual influence of surfactants chelating agents on wettability alteration hydrophobic carbonate rock conditions high-temperature relatively unexplored. This paper aims to study interfacial processes surface in presence EDTA-based agent different classes. Cat...

Somatostatin analoges labeled with different radionuclides are able used for imaging and treatment of somatostatin receptor positive tumors. In this study Tyr³-Octreotide protected at lysine as an analoge of somatostatin was conjugated with bifunctional chelating agent 6-BOC-hydrazinopyridine-3-carboxylic acid (BOC-HYNIC) and after deprotecting of conjugate, purification was performed wit...

Pb and Cd in water samples were determined by cloud point extraction (CPE) with sodiumdiethyldithiocarbamate (DDTC) as the chelating agent and octylphenoxypolyethanl (Triton X-114) asthe surfactant prior to flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) determination. The main factorsof affecting the extraction and detection processes were optimized. The preconcentration of 10 mL ofstandard soluti...
