The importance of ceruloplasmin in iron metabolism was studied in swine made hypoceruloplasminemic by copper deprivation. When the plasma ceruloplasmin level fell below 1% of normal, cell-to-plasma iron flow became sufficiently impaired to cause hypoferremia, even though total body iron stores were normal. When ceruloplasmin was administered to such animals, plasma iron increased immediately an...

In this study the ability of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, with regard to the biorecovery of heavy metals inshake flask has been investigated. Adaptation experiments with the single metal ions Ni, Co, V, Mo, W anda mixture of the first four metal ions in the medium was developed through serial sub-culturing. Adaptationshowed that A. ferrooxidans could tolerate up to 2.3 g/l ...

The effects of ferrous and ferric iron as well as redox potential on copper and iron extraction from the copper flotation concentrate of Sarcheshmeh, Kerman, Iran, were evaluated using shake flask leaching examinations. Experiments were carried out in the presence and absence of a mixed culture of moderately thermophile microorganisms at 50 ̊C. Chemical leaching experiments were performed in the...

Introduction: Increased iron requirements to supply the expanding blood volume of the mother and the rapidly growing fetus and placenta can cause iron deficiency anemia.Plenty of oral iron formulations are available.A comparative study was planned to find out the best oral iron supplement for improving iron deficiency anemia in pregnant females as well as to compare their tolerability, as this ...

Introduction. Different ferric and ferrous iron preparations can be used as oral iron supplements. Our aim was to compare the effects of oral ferric and ferrous iron therapies in women with iron deficiency anaemia. Methods. The present study included 104 women diagnosed with iron deficiency anaemia after evaluation. In the evaluations performed to detect the aetiology underlying the iron defici...

Results of rapid reaction experiments indicate that the first observable product formed after the reaction of oxygen with purified reduced cytochrome oxidase is a spectral form which corresponds to that of the oxidized enzyme. The latter is then slowly converted to “The Compound,” or so-called oxygenated form. These observations suggest that The Compound is not an intermediate in the cytochrome...

This paper explains the Fenton process – Advanced Oxidation Process for treatment of industrial waste water and effect of various parameters on Fenton process. AOPs are the process that generates the hydroxyl radical that oxidizes the impurity compounds and purifies the waste water. For generation of hydroxyl radical there are many methods are available. Fenton process is an advanced oxidation ...
