Abstract Background Iron deficiency is widely present in patients with heart failure (HF) and associated an increased risk of mortality poor clinical outcomes regardless anemia. HF highly prevalent chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, existing oral iron preparations have failed to improve iron-related parameters HF, intravenous are recommended. Ferric citrate hydrate (FC) iron-based phosphate...

Selective solid-phase reduction of iron and phosphorus in oolite ores the Lisakovsky Ayat deposits was experimentally studied. Using X-ray phase analysis, composition initial samples after roasting determined. Goethite, magnetite quartz were found both deposits. Phosphorus ore deposit is form aluminum phosphate hydrophosphate, – as a component calcium hydrophosphate. Experiments on carried out ...

During a study of nucleolar organiser regions, a modified silver stain was found to be a sensitive marker for the iron in ringed sideroblasts, more so than Perls's stain when the marrow iron stores were low. To enhance the usefulness of the silver stain, a combined silver Perls method was developed. This stains the ringed sideroblast iron black and haemosiderin blue, thus rendering the detectio...

Iron oxide impregnated casein nanoparticles (IOICNPs) were prepared by in-situ precipitation of iron oxide within the casein matrix. The resulting iron oxide impregnated casein nanoparticles (IOICNPs) were characterized by Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), Vibrating sample magnet...

Use of water treatment plant residuals (WTR), as a soil amendment is a promising alternative to landfill disposal. Unfortunately, WTR has a propensity to bind with phosphate, which is an important plant nutrient. Phosphate may be added to WTR prior to soil application. This type of pretreatment may convert WTR from a phosphate consumer to a phosphate supplier. The binding of phosphate to WTR is...

In most cases authors are permitted to post their version of the article (e.g. in Word or Tex form) to their personal website or institutional repository. Authors requiring further information regarding Elsevier's archiving and manuscript policies are encouraged to visit: 99 Tc (surrogated by Re) was immobilized in an iron phosphate glass. $1.1 mass% Re was retained, possibly dissolved, in the ...

The observed high abundance of algae and cyanobacteria on Guam’s coral reefs raises concern regarding a possible shift from coralto algal-dominated communities. Possible increased nutrient supply to macroalgae and cyanobacteria via the watershed due to anthropogenic disturbance could be a partial cause. In this study, 2 outdoor microcosm experiments are used to test the effects of iron, nitrate...

Rapid and profound climatic environmental changes have been predicted for the Antarctic Peninsula with so far unknown impact on biogeochemistry of continental shelves. In this study, we investigate benthic carbon sedimentation, remineralization iron cycling using sediment cores retrieved a 400 mile transect contrasting sea ice conditions along eastern shelf Peninsula. Sediments at comparable wa...

Mild (unalloyed) steel electrodes were incubated in phosphate-buffered cultures of aerobic, biofilm-forming Rhodococcus sp. strain C125 and Pseudomonas putida mt2. A resulting surface reaction leading to the formation of a corrosion-inhibiting vivianite layer was accompanied by a characteristic electrochemical potential (E) curve. First, E increased slightly due to the interaction of phosphate ...

Excessive nutrient contents in water bodies renders eutrophication and causes undesired structural changes to the environment. One of the most straightforward strategies to address eutrophication issue is through the removal of nutrients such as phosphate ions from the water sources. A combination of membrane fltration and adsorption process is an attractive alternative...
