Trans-diaqua[meso-tetrakis(4-pyridyl)porphyrinato]Sn(IV) dinitrate complexes were assembled in a two-dimensional manner via hydrogen bonding between aqua ligands and pyridyl substituents. Interestingly, this supramolecular assembly was accompanied by unconventional noncovalent interactions, such as anion···anion anion···? which confirmed X-ray crystallographic analysis. Two nitrate anions close...

Uptake of uranium (VI) ions using an anion exchanger resin, namely amberlite CG-400, was studied through this work in the presence of sulfate anions. Impact of various parameters including pH, contact time, initial concentration of uranium ions and intrusion with different anion contents (phosphate, chloride,sulfate, nitrate and fluoride) was examined on the sorption performance of the resin. A...

Despite commonly being used as the hosts for gases, solvents and other neutral molecules, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have received recent attention supramolecular anion binding with a broad range of environmental biological applications. The review summarizes development this area, anion-binding MOFs categorized based on different design strategies including cationic anion-exchange capabil...

Antioxidant activity of Berry (Morus alba var. nigra) was investigated. For superoxide anion radical assay, the superoxide anion radicals were generated by a pyrogallol auto oxidation system, Nitric oxide radical inhibition by the use of Griess Illosvoy reaction and reducing power was determined according to the Oyaizu method. At least this sample was represented a potential antioxidant capacit...

The protein family of anion channel (ClC) constitute a family of transmembrane trnsporters that either function as anion channel or as H+/anion exchanger. The expression of three genes of AtClCa, AtClCb and AtClCd in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana were silenced by a T-DNA insertion . When the pH of the medium was slightly acidic the length of the primary root of plants with a disrupted At...

The current study was attributed to uranium (VI) ions adsorption using a anion exchanger resin, Dowex®2x8, in the presence of sulfate anions. Evaluation of operational parameters including contact time, pH, initial concentration of uranium ions, and presence of various anions (including phosphate, sulfate, chloride, fluoride, and nitrate) in the solution was assessed on sorption performance of ...

Background: The mechanism of hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) is still debatable. It has been proposed that reactive oxygen species (ROS) might be involved in HPV. However, there is no special transporter for superoxide anion in the cell membrane and it may release from the cells via anion exchanger. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the interaction of ROS and anion ex...

This research investigated stability of two novel aminated polyphenylene polymers as anion exchange layers in bipolar membranes. Bipolar membrane stability was tested under operating conditions of 50 mA/cm2, and under conditions of soaking in room temperature 1 M NaOH. The stability of the custom made bipolar membranes was compared with those for two commercial membranes. For the polyphenylene-...

Optical modeling was applied for obtaining absorbance spectra and band gap values for different morphology of ZnO semiconductor. In optical modeling, the relative permittivity scalars of zinc oxide coral like nanorods were calculated using the Bruggeman homogenization formalism. ZnO nano rods (ZONRs) as a nucleus layer were fabricated on the Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) by chronoamperometry (CA) in a...
