nano-encapsulated iron oxide in zirconium oxide-coated mica pigments are thermally stable,innocuous to human health, non-combustible, and they do not conduct electricity. they could beapplied in several industries such as thermoplastics, cosmetics, food packaging, children toys, paints,automobiles coating, security purposes, and banknotes. nowadays, they are highly desirable inceramic decoratio...

iron reducing bacteria (irb) are one of the most applicable microorganisms in various industrial and environmental activities. these bacteria play a main role in the natural iron transformation. they act in a reverse metabolic pathway in contrast to iron oxidizing bacteria. in the anaerobic conditions irb are capable to use ferric ion as the final electron acceptor and reduce fe3+ to fe2+. what...

Regularities of the phase protective layer formation in multicomponent systems involving inhibitors with different mechanism of protective action have been investigated. It was shown that optimization of the composition of the inhibition mixture allows to obtain higher protective efficiency owing to improved microstructure of the phase layer. It was found that mechanism of the film formation in...

The amendment of the subsurface with nanoscale metallic iron particles (nano-Fe(0)) has been discussed in the literature as an efficient in situ technology for groundwater remediation. However, the introduction of this technology was controversial and its efficiency has never been univocally established. This unsatisfying situation has motivated this communication whose objective was a comprehe...

With using the carbon nano-tube (CNT) of high chemical activity, nano-TiCx particles with different growth shapes were synthesized through the self-propagating high temperature in the 80 wt.% metal (Cu, Al, and Fe)-Ti-CNT systems. The growth shapes of the TiCx particles are mainly octahedron in the Cu- and Al-Ti-CNT systems, while mainly cube- and sphere-like in the Fe-Ti-CNT system.

BACKGROUND: Bio-fertilizers are best eco-friendly approach for plant and soil environment. Also, micronutrient element such as iron plays a key role in the formation of chlorophyll and photosynthesis. OBJECTIVES: This study evaluated the effect of growth bacteria and Nano iron fertilizer and ordinary iron fertilizer on some physiological properties of Tritical...

The increase in the cost of fertilizers and their low efficiency has led, through nanotechnology, to generation new innovative products that are sustainable improve productivity crops. Therefore, objective present study was evaluate efficacy a molybdenum nanofertilizer compared two conventional (chelate sodium molybdate) applied via foliar combined with soil fertilization NH4NO3 relation Nitrog...

This indirect method for determination of desferrioxamine (DFO, deferoxamine, Desferal) and its chelated compounds ferrioxamine (FO) and aluminoxamine (AIO) in biological fluids involves metal chelate formation and solvent extraction, the metal being determined by Zeeman atomic absorption spectrometry (Zeeman-AAS). Special attention was paid to the pH and recovery of extraction, iron-aluminum i...

The protective effects of selected members from a series of caffeic acid esters and flavonoids were tested in various toxicity paradigms using U937 cells, previously shown to be sensitive to either iron chelators or bona fide radical scavengers or to both classes of compounds. It was found that all the protective polyphenols were active at very low concentrations and that their effects were obs...
