The transport of carbonate ions through a supported liquid membrane in the presence and absence of carriers has been explored. The liquid membrane used was the combined liquid cation and anion exchangers in toluene immobilized in the porous polypropylene support. The permeability coefficient (P) of carbonate ions transport from the source to receiving through membrane phase has been estimated. ...

The rate of changes of heavy metal ions concentrations in the organism or biological system will determine the choice of strategy of realization of heavy metal ions effect and, consequently, the biological effect itself. Which of the possible strategies will dominate, depend on the rate of changes of concentration of heavy metal ions in biological systems, functional activity of organism at the...

a sensitive and simple method for simultaneous preconcentration of trace heavy metal ions in some cerealand vegetable samples has been reported. the method is based on the adsorption of cu2+, fe3+, zn2+ and pb2+on 2-(2-nitro-phenylazo)-naphthalen-1-ol (npn) loaded on activated carbon (ac). the adsorbed metals onactivated carbon were eluted using 3 ml 4 mol l−1 nitric acid. the influences of the...

In order to study the Cu(II) ion selective electrode, an optimized membrane was prepared by mixing of 30 mg of PVC powdered, 5 mg of considered ionophore, 60 mg of plasticizer and 5 mg of additive. The sensor showed a near Nernstian response for Cu(II) ions over a concentration range from 1.0×0-6 –1.0×0-2 M with a slope of 28.90.5 mV per concentration decade with a working pH range of 3.5-6.3. ...

The Cu(II) and Fe(III) ions have been adsorbed by four potato starches of different degrees of oxidation (different numbers of COOH groups replacing host CH2OH groups): native (no oxidized), white (pudding) with oxidation degree of 0.04%, gelating (0.1%), and LUBOX starch (0.5%). Concentration of the ions in starches was determined from atomic absorption and EPR spectrum intensity. For small co...

The adsorption capacity of hebba clay and activated carbon towards (Fe 3+ , Cu 2+ , Zn 2+ , Pb 2+ , Cr 3+ , Cd 2+ ) metal ions was studied. The adsorption capacity was investigated by batch experiment. The effect of weight of hebba was studied and the results showed that the removal percentages increased as the weight of sorbent increased. The effect of contact time was also studied and the res...

Ion-beam induced effects in -Al2O3 of c, a, and r orientations were studied by Rutherford backscattering spectrometry RBS in channeling configuration using 1.4 MeV He ions. 150 keV Ar, 150 keV K, or 80 keV Na ions were step by step implanted at 15 K followed immediately by the RBS analysis without changing the sample environment. Defect annealing was observed during the RBS measurement, which i...
