Several important sediment geochemical factors (particle size, contact time, artificial sediment composition, acid volatile sulfide, and pure inorganic particles coated or uncoated with humic acid) were examined for their influences on the assimilation of Cd, Cr, and Zn in the marine clam Ruditapes philippinarum. Metal desorption and phase speciation were concurrently measured for these particl...

in this study, undoped zno and doped with fe and mn nanostructures were synthesized by hydrothermal method. the morphology of nanostructures was characterized by scanning electron microscope. the electrochemical response of the carbon paste electrode modified with nanoparticles of zno and also zno doped with fe and mn toward levodopa (l-dopa) was studied. studies of cyclic voltammetry using pro...

Zero valent iron (ZVI), the primary reactive material in several permeable reactive barriers, is often oxidized to ferrous or ferric iron, resulting in decreased reactivity with time. Iron reducing bacteria can reconvert the ferric iron to its ferrous form, prolonging the reduction of chlorinated organic contaminants. In this study, the reduction of Fe(II,III) oxide and Fe(III) oxide by a strai...

The title compound, [Fe(C(12)H(8)N(2))(3)][Fe(2)Cl(6)O]·0.5CH(3)CH(2)OH, consists of one [Fe(phen)(3)](2+) cation (phen = 1,10-phen-anthroline), one [Fe(2)Cl(6)O](2-) anion and one half-mol-ecule of ethanol. In the cation, the Fe(II) atom is coordinated by six N atoms from three phen ligands in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. In the bent anion, two Fe(III) atoms are connected by a bridging ox...

conclusions ti is an important parameter to consider in the relationship between si and nanoparticle concentrations. an increase in ti leads to a decrease in the range of linearity. results the results indicate that si depended on the concentration of nanoparticles and ti. in addition, si increased by increasing the tis ranging from 200 to 400 ms for all studied concentrations. the linear relat...

It has been reported that occlusal forces promote periodontal healing of transplanted teeth and prevent dentoalveolar ankylosis, although its mechanism is still unclear. Nitric oxide (NO) produced by NO synthase (NOS) is considered to be an important factor which is involved in wound healing, and it increases with mechanical stimuli. The objective of this study was to examine the relationship a...

Abstraet--A new iron oxide dissolution method designed to measure the abundance of "free" Fe oxide phases and associated elements in soils and sediments has been tested. The method employs a ternary complex of Ti(III), citrate, and ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA) as a reductant and bicarbonate as a proton acceptor. The Ti(III)-citrate-EDTA-HCO3 method dissolved more synthetic amorphous ferri...

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), superoxide (O •− 2 ), and hydroxyl radicals (OH ) are produced in natural waters via ultraviolet (UV) light-induced reactions between dissolved oxygen (O2) and organic carbon, and further reaction of H2O2 and Fe(II) (i.e., Fenton chemistry). The temporal and spatial dynamics of H2O2 and other dissolved compounds [Fe(II), Fe(III), H2S, O2] were measured during a diel cy...

[1] Knowledge of the elastic properties and crystal chemistry of dense oxide structures plays an important role in interpreting the composition and mineralogy of planetary interiors. We report the effects of (Mg,Fe) substitution and nonstoichiometry due to Fe on the crystal structure, elastic constants (cij) and moduli (K0T, K0S, G0) of (Mg,Fe)O utilizing single-crystal X-ray diffraction and gi...

While airway constriction has been shown to affect exhaled nitric oxide (NO), the mechanisms and location of constricted airways most likely to affect exhaled NO remain obscure. We studied the effects of histamine-induced airway constriction and ventilation heterogeneity on exhaled NO at 50 ml/s (Fe(NO,50)) and combined this with model simulations of Fe(NO,50) changes due to constriction of air...
