a new al(iii) selective membrane based on 5-bromo(salicylidene-2-amino thiophenol) as a neutral carrier in a poly(vinyl chloride) (pvc) matrix is coated on platinum wire to determine trace amounts of al(iii) ion in various samples. the sensor exhibits a good response for al(iii) ion over a wide concentration range of 5.20 × 10-7 to 1.00 × 10-2 m  with nernstian slope of 19.64 ± 0.15 mv decade-1...

The interaction between some heavy metal ions such as of Pb(II), Cd(II) and Cu(II) ions from aqueous solution adsorbed by single walled carbon nanotube (SWCNTs) and carboxylate group functionalized single walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT-COOH) surfaces were studied by atomic absorption spectroscopy. The effect of contact time, pH, initial concentration of ion, ionic strength and temperature on the...

The interaction of Pb and Zn with Al20 3 in aqueous solution was studied as a function of pH and metal ion concentration. Results indicated the complexation of metal ions by oxide surfaces is strongly pH dependent; the extent of adsorption is a function of pH with an abrupt change within approximately 2 pH units. The adsorption of Pb and Zn on aluminium oxide can be interpreted in terms of a sm...

A structural investigation performed on adducts of human ubiquitin with group-12 metal ions reveals common preferential anchoring sites, the most populated one being His68; at higher metal ion concentration a second and a third site, close to the N-terminus of the protein, become populated and promote a polymorphic transition from orthorhombic to cubic form; Glu16 and Glu18, involved in the lat...

background: salt content and ph degree are the quality indicators of bread which their unauthorized levels may have harmful effects on body health. accordingly, this survey was carried out to evaluate ph and salt contents in bread samples produced in mashhad, iran. methods: totally 708 bread samples (340 loaves of lavash, 183 loaves of taftun, 139 loaves of barbari and 46 loaves of sangak bread...

introduction with the rapid development of industries such as metal plating facilities, mining, fertilizer producing industries, tanneries and paper industries heavy metals enriched wastewaters are directly or indirectly discharged into the environment. zinc is a trace element that is essential for human health. it is important for the physiological functions of living tissues and regulates man...

Heavy metals released into the surface and ground water has been a major preoccupation for many years because of their increased discharge, acute toxicity, non-biodegradable nature and tendency for bioaccumulation [1-3]. Iron a common contaminant enters the water bodies through effluents of industries such as electroplating, mining, steel processing etc. The presence of Fe (II) in water results...

ABSTRACT The lethal threats to human health from heavy metals are associated with untreated ground water. We developed a high throughput single step heavy metal purification process based on Ion Concentration Polarization mechanism. Instead of microfluidic channel networks, the plastic prototype made of plastic meshes and Nafion nanoporous material was built so that the manufacturability and co...
