Background: The animal is tremendously challenged to maintain calcium homeostasis. Those that fail can develop milk fever, a clinical disorder that is life threatening to the cow and predisposes the animal to a variety of other disorders. Calcium defi ciency disease is often accompanied with a defi ciency in phosphorus in clinical cases. Blood phosphorus status has also been researched because ...

In studies conducted in this laboratory dealing with the composition of the phosphatide isolated from the human tubercle bacillus, strain H-37, it was recognized early that an organic phosphoric acid of the formula C9H20014P2 could be separated in the form of the barium salt from the water-soluble cleavage products after the phosphatide had been saponified with alcoholic potassium hydroxide (I)...

Coal-based reduction followed by magnetic separation is an effective way to recover iron from high phosphorus-containing oolitic hematite ore. Given that high quantities of dephosphorization agent are needed to obtain low phosphorus reduced iron, a novel approach is proposed by the authors. Without prior phosphorus removal, the phosphorus was enriched in the reduced iron during a reduction proc...

[1] Biogeochemical studies show that the surface waters of the subtropical North Atlantic are highly phosphorus (P) stressed. Human activity may exacerbate phosphorus stress by enhancing atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition and raising N/P ratios in deposition. However, the magnitude of this effect is unclear, in part, because atmospherically deposited phosphorus sources are not well known, part...

Phosphorus retention plays a pivotal role in the onset of mineral and bone disorders (MBD) in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Phosphorus retention commonly occurs as a result of net intestinal absorption exceeding renal excretion or dialysis removal. The dietary phosphorus load is crucial since the early stages of CKD, throughout the whole course of the disease, up to dialysis-dependent end-stage...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Epidemiologic studies show an association between higher predialysis serum phosphorus and increased death risk in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. The hypothesis that higher dietary phosphorus intake and higher phosphorus content per gram of dietary protein intake are each associated with increased mortality in MHD patients was examined. DESIGN, SETTING, PART...

In this work we obtained a polymer-metal complex by mixing aqueous solution of copper(II) acetate with PVA at certain ratio, pH the and temperature. The composition compound was determined potentiometric conductometric titration. possibility formation proved calculating thermodynamic characteristics. stability constant calculated on basis modified Bjerrum’s method. metal-polymer synthesized in ...

Abstract This article presents the results of studying dynamics nutritive regime for leached black soil during vegetation period apple trees depending on dosage and application times compound fertilizers, as well combinations organic mineral fertilizers. We detected a positive influence fertilizers accumulation liable forms nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium in fruit orchard. The highest average c...

Phosphorus is a key biologic element, and a prebiotic pathway leading to its incorporation into biomolecules has been difficult to ascertain. Most potentially prebiotic phosphorylation reactions have relied on orthophosphate as the source of phosphorus. It is suggested here that the geochemistry of phosphorus on the early Earth was instead controlled by reduced oxidation state phosphorus compou...

We examined whether a difference in potassium dihydrogenphosphate (KH2PO4) and potassium tripolyphosphate (K5P3O10) as dietary phosphorus sources could differentially effect the nephrocalcinosis and proximal tubular function in female rats. Rats were fed on a diet containing KH2PO4 or K5P3O10, at the normal phosphorus level (normal phosphorus diet) or at a high phosphorus level (high-phosphorus...
