This study examined the preparation of high-capacity silica supports containing immobilized protein G. A maximum content of 39 mg protein G/g silica was obtained when using 100 A pore size silica, followed by 33 mg/g for 50 A silica and 9.3-24 mg/g for 300-4000 A silica. The surface coverage of protein G increased with pore size, with a maximum level of 0.037 micromol/m(2) being obtained for 40...

BACKGROUND This paper proposes a novel model for homeopathic remedy action on living systems. Research indicates that homeopathic remedies (a) contain measurable source and silica nanoparticles heterogeneously dispersed in colloidal solution; (b) act by modulating biological function of the allostatic stress response network (c) evoke biphasic actions on living systems via organism-dependent ad...

extensive application of silica nanoparticles (snps) in various industrial products has led to the development of silica extraction methodologies out of various waste products. rice husk is an agricultural waste with a high content of amorphous silica. however, the presence of metal ion impurities and unburned carbon in the rice husk content may present an adverse effect on product color and pu...

a new polymorph crystalline silica composition having uniform pore dimensions were synthesized by calcining a crystalline hydrated alkyl-ammonium silicate. the pore dimensions approximately were 6 angstrom for silicalite-1 and 11 angstrom for silicalite-2 units. the silicalite-1 was prepared hydrothermally at a ph of about 10 from a reaction mixture consist of water, amorphous silica and a quat...
