The solubility of cholesterol in mixed aqueous ionic and non-ionic micellar systems in the presence and absence of salts and ionic dyes has been studied. The mixed micellar system of cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide and Triton X-100 solubilized more cholesterol than a system consisting of sodium dodecyl sulfate and Triton X-100. The influence of salts and dyes on these systems was moderate but ...

The discontinuous phase transition of K 2 S 0 4 is described by a semi-empirical model that uses the elastic stiffnesses cn and the changes in volume and entropy associated with the order-disorder transition. Consideration of the elastic anomaly (existence of soft, damped longitudinal acoustic phonons) in K 2 S 0 4 removes the disagreement between transition enthalpies AHlr measured calorimetri...

The catalytic activity of four metal ions the fourth period table by D.I. Mendeleev in oxidation potassium iodide with ammonium persulfate. greatest increase reaction rate is observed presence copper sulfate, least cobalt and nickel salts

Immunoglobulin Y is different from most of the other immunoglobulins because it does not bind protein A or protein G. Thiophilic gel chromatography has been successfully used to purify IgY from chicken egg yolk, but the technology has not previously been used to purify IgY from serum. In this research note, we describe the optimization of T-gel chromatography for purification of IgY from serum....

Abstract: the competition between the precipitation of cobalt ions and evolution of hydrogen gas on the cathode surface duringthe reduction process in a sulfate bath, investigation on the mechanism of metal precipitation is of great importance.In the present work, study on the kinetics of cobalt electrowinning and the mechanism of the involved reactions havebeen carried out. The obtained result...

Sulfur deficiency in plants has severe impacts on both growth and nutrient composition. Fumigation with sub-lethal concentrations of H2S facilitates the supply of reduced sulfur via the leaves while sulfate is depleted from the roots. This restores growth while sulfate levels in the plant tissue remain low. In the present study this system was used to reveal interactions of sulfur with other nu...

A survey on organisms able to use molecular hydrogen as electron donor in the energy-yielding process is presented. In the group of the aerobic hydrogen-oxidizing bacteria so far two types of hydrogenases have been encountered, a NAD-reducing, soluble enzyme (H2 : NAD oxidoreductase) and a membrane-bound enzyme unable to reduce pyridine nucleotides. With respect to the distribution of both type...

The structural unit of the title compound, [K(C(6)H(3)N(2)O(4))(C(6)H(4)N(2)O(4))(H(2)O)(2)](n), consists of one potassium cation, one hydrogen pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxyl-ate anion, one pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid mol-ecule and two water mol-ecules; this is twice the asymmetric unit, since the potassium cation lies on an inversion centre. Each anion or acid mol-ecule is linked to two potassium ...

this study was conducted under ahvaz, iran environmental condition during 2012 and 2013 growing seasons in order to investigate the influence of foliar application of potassium on some physiological and biochemical characteristics of three olive cultivars including ‘mission’, ‘koroneiki’ and ‘dezfuli’. potassium sulfate in different concentrations of 0, 1, and 2 g l-1 was sprayed twice on selec...
