A new simple and reliable method for rapid and selective extraction and determination of trace levels of Zn(II) ion is developed. Zn(II) ions are adsorbed quantitatively during passage of aqueous samples through PET-AA/AAm nano fiber modified. Almost all matrix elements were found to pass through the nano fiber to drain. Modified Poly (ethylene terephthalate)-grafted-Acrylic acid/Acryl amide Na...

Matricaria chamomilla is a medicinal plant that is widely cultivated in salt affected soils. This investigation was undertaken to study the effect of NaCl concentration on germination, and the physiological, biochemical and growth characteristics of chamomile. Seed germination and growth were studied at five NaCl concentration levels (0, 40, 80, 120 and 190 mM NaCl concentration). Increasing th...

In the present study radioactive tracer isotopes I and Br are applied to study the kinetics of iodide and bromide ion-isotopic exchange reactions in two anion exchange resins Duolite A-378 and Duolite A-143. The study is performed by varying the experimental parameters like temperature and concentration of exchanging medium to understand the effect of above parameters on exchange reaction rate ...

Background & Aims of the Study: Heavy metals discharge to environment is a worldwide problem growing in scale. When they accumulate in the environment and in food chains, they can profoundly disrupt biological processes. Peganum Harmala Seeds (PHS) was used as a bio-sorbent, using a continuous system for removing Pb2+, Co2+, Ni2+ and Cu2+ ions from aqueous solutions. ...

PURPOSE Parkinson disease and related syndromes are associated directly with the concentrations of neuromelanin, iron and other heavy metals, and nowadays it is discussed the possible protective role of neuromelanin by the sequester redox active iron ions, reducing the formation of free hydroxyl radicals and therefore inactivating the iron ions that induce oxidative stress. The aim of this work...
