introduction rhodium metal is known for its stability in corrosive environments, physical beauty, and its unique properties. rhodium is now widely used for alloying platinum in thermocouples, crucibles, evaporating dishes, weighing boats windings for high-temperature furnaces. it has been applied as a coating material because of the hardness and luster of its surface. rhodium is present at abou...

Salicylic acid-Formaldehyde-m-Cresol (SFM) terpolymer had been synthesized in DMF media by conventional method. The resulting resin had been characterized by FTIR spectra, elemental and thermogravimetric analyses. The morphology of SFM resin had been studied by SEM and Optical photograph. Various parameters like rate of equilibration, effect of pH on ion exchange capacity and effect of conc...

bridged bithiazoles (5,5'-ethylene-4,4'-bithiazoles) are synthesized as a good chelating agent.

this study investigated single-step extraction of heavy metals from contaminated sedimentscollected in the port of cádiz. experimental tests of washing with an aqueous solution of a chelating agent wereperformed at selected solid/liquid (s/l) ratios. two chelating agents were chosen: 0.3 m edta(ph 3.8 and 8)and sodium citrate (1 m). the objective of the tests was to investigate extractive decon...

Chickpea-chelating peptides were purified and analysed for their iron-chelating activity. These peptides were purified after affinity and gel filtration chromatography from a chickpea protein hydrolysate produced with pepsin and pancreatin. Iron-chelating activity was higher in purified peptide fractions than in the original hydrolysate. Histidine contents were positively correlated with the ir...

Although Strombomonas verrucosa has been the type of genus name for almost 100 years, its lack clear diagnostic traits rendered morphological distinction from congeners impossible. As such, a study was conducted combining previously unused data (chloroplast characters) with molecular (sequences nuclear SSU, LSU and plastid-encoded SSU rDNA) extensive literature review. The focused on environmen...
