Five new thiosulfate based inorganic-organic hybrid open-framework compounds have been synthesized employing mild reaction conditions. Of the five compounds, [Na(2)(H(2)O)(8)][Cd(C(10)H(8)N(2))(S(2)O(3))(2)].2H(2)O, I and [Cd(2)(C(10)H(8)N(2))(2)(HS(2)O(3))(2)(S(2)O(3))(2)][(C(10)H(9)N(2))(2)(C(10)H(8)N(2))(2)].8H(2)O, II have one-dimensional (1D) structures and [Cd(C(10)H(8)N(2))(H(2)O)(2)(S(2...

The centrosymmetric dinuclear complex bis-(μ-3-carb-oxy-6-methyl-pyridine-2-carboxyl-ato)-κ(3) N,O (2):O (2);κ(3) O (2):N,O (2)-bis-[(2,2'-bi-pyridine-κ(2) N,N')(nitrato-κO)cadmium] methanol monosolvate, [Cd2(C8H6NO4)2(NO3)2(C10H8N2)2]·CH3OH, was isolated as colourless crystals from the reaction of Cd(NO3)2·4H2O, 6-methyl-pyridine-2,3-di-carb-oxy-lic acid (mepydcH2) and 2,2'-bi-pyridine in meth...

Highly crystalline Bi3+-doped cadmium oxide (CdO) sub-micron structures were synthesized by calcination the obtained precursor from a sol-gel reaction. The reaction was carried out with cadmium nitrate (Cd(NO3)2.4H2O), bismuth nitrate (Bi(NO3)3.5H2O) and ethylene glycol (C2H6O2) reactan...

In this work, the synthesis of porous structure of cadmium oxide with multilayered sheet-like morphology in nano-meter size using adipic acid as soft template by solvothermal/thermal decomposition process is reported. Chemical analyses exhibited that the formation of porous sheet-like structure is originated from bidentate coordination mode of adipate units to Cd-center. It was found that the c...

This paper reports on the characterization of the metal binding abilities of mammalian MT4 and their comparison with those of the well known MT1. Heterologous Escherichia coli expression in cultures supplemented with zinc, cadmium, or copper was achieved for MT4 and for its separate alphaMT4 and betaMT4 domains as well as for MT1 and its alphaMT1 domain in cadmium-enriched medium. The in vivo c...

N-(2,3-Dimercaptopropyl) phthalamidic acid (DMPA), meso-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA), and 2,3-dimercapto-1-propanesulfonic acid (DMPS) are dithiol chelating agents with antidotal activity for lead, mercury, arsenic, and other heavy metals. The biliary excretion of these compounds was studied in male Sprague-Dawley rats. After iv administration of DMPA, 72% of the injected dose was recovered i...
