The main objective of this study is to investigate the feasibility using raw and modified activated carbon with ammonia for maximum removal Pb2+ Cd2+ ions from aqueous solutions polluted water samples at optimized process parameters such as initial metal concentration, adsorbent dose, contact time solution pH. treatment a commercial granular by was performed increase power heavy samples. In wor...

Heavy metal pollution management is a global environmental problem that poses great threat to the ecological environment. Adsorption and biomineralization are considered be two most promising heavy remediation techniques among numerous available ones. In this work, combined removal system was constructed employing adsorption of montmorillonite mineralization carbonate mineralizing bacteria expa...

A novel method for the rapid extraction and determination of a ppt level of Pb2+ and Cu2+ ions using partial silylated MCM-41 modified by a new salophen and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) is introduced. The preconcentration factor of the method is 500, and the detection limits of Pb2+ and Cu2+ are 335 and 34 ng L(-1), respectively. The time and efficiency of e...

in current work, cds/black carbon nanocomposites were successfully synthesized with the aid of chestnut and cadmium nitrate as the starting reagents. besides, the effects of preparation parameters such as reaction time, and precursor concentration on the morphology of products and removal of heavy metals (hg+2, pb+2) were studied by scanning electron microscopy images and batch adsorption mode....

Downstream waste from industry and other industrial processes could increase concentration of heavy metals in water. These pollutants are commonly removed by adsorption because it is an effective and economical method. Previously, we reported adsorption capacity of a chitosan/polyurethane/titanium dioxide (TiO₂) composite for three ions in a dynamic wastewater system. There, increasing the chit...

The usage of wastes of bagasse would be admirable from environmental and solid waste management point of view. Thus, herein, this data set present a facile method for providing an adsorbent from mixture of bagasse-bentonite. The prepared adsorbent was applied to remove Pb2+ from aqueous solution. It was conducted in laboratory scale using completely randomized design with variations in mixed ma...

The potency of Pb2+ inhibition of glutamate-activated currents mediated by N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors was dependent on the subunits composing the receptors when functionally expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Pb2+ reduced the amplitudes of glutamate-activated currents and shifted the agonist EC50 values of NMDA receptors consisting of different subunit compositions. The IC50 values...

We modeled the stimulated hydrogel volume transitions of a material which binds Pb2+ and is used as a photonic crystal chemical sensing material. This material consists of a polymerized crystalline colloidal array (PCCA) hydrogel which contains a crown ether molecular recognition group. The PCCA is a polyacrylamide hydrogel which embeds a crystalline colloidal array (CCA) of monodisperse polyst...

BACKGROUND Influenza A virus has a RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) that is composed of three subunits (PB1, PB2 and PA subunit), which assemble with nucleoproteins (NP) and a viral RNA (vRNA) to form a RNP complex in the host nucleus. Recently, we demonstrated that the combination of influenza ribonucleoprotein (RNP) components is important for both its assembly and activity. Therefore, we ...
