Abstract-A mathematical modeling was adopted to calculate the ferric ion diffusion coefficient based on the radiation induced magnetic resonance (MR) image intensity change in Fricke-agarose gels. A fast magnetic resonance imaging acquisition technique was employed to avoid the smearing of acquired data due to diffusion over an extended period of time. Our results showed that for a Fricke-agaro...

in the present of methylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate, the synthesis of arylidene heterobicyclic pyrimidinones is studied by condensation of aromatic aldehyde, cyclopentanone, and urea or thiourea. using solvent-free conditions, non-toxic and inexpensive materials, simple and clean work-up, short reaction times and good yields of the products are the advantages of this method.

The diversity and distribution of a bacterial community from Coffee Pots Hot Spring, a thermal spring in Yellowstone National Park with a temperature range of 39.3 to 74.1 degrees C and pH range of 5.75 to 6.91, were investigated by sequencing cloned PCR products and quantitative PCR (qPCR) of 16S rRNA and metabolic genes. The spring was inhabited by three Aquificae genera--Thermocrinis, Hydrog...

BACKGROUND Although ferric pyrophosphate is a promising compound for iron fortification of foods, few data are available on the effect of food matrices, processing, and ascorbic acid on its bioavailability. OBJECTIVE We compared the relative bioavailability (RBV) of ferrous sulfate in an experimental form of micronized dispersible ferric pyrophosphate (MDFP) in a wheat-milk infant cereal give...

in this study, oxidation of some 3,5-diacyl or 3,5-diester 1,4-dihydropyridines to corresponding pyridine derivatives using sodium bromate in the presence of nh4cl, nahso4 and bu4nhso4 under thermal conditions has been investigated. the yield and structure of formed products is similar under all conditions; however, the reaction is accelerated in the presence of bu4nhso4 and nahso4. in addition...

Microbial mats containing the filamentous anoxygenic photosynthetic bacterium Chloroflexus aggregans develop at Nakabusa hot spring in Japan. Under anaerobic conditions in these mats, interspecies interaction between sulfate-reducing bacteria as sulfide producers and C. aggregans as a sulfide consumer has been proposed to constitute a sulfur cycle; however, the electron donor utilized for micro...

The aim of this study was to find optimum dose of ferrous sulphate and hydrogen peroxide in Fenton oxidation process for treatment of dyeing wastewater. Fenton process is the advanced oxidation method used mainly for COD and colour removal. Experiments are done on synthetic wastewater prepared from three different dyes; acidic, disperse and reactive; and also effluent obtained from industry. Th...
