BACKGROUND A new organodithiophosphorus derivative, namely O-(1,3-Bispiperidino-2-propyl)-4-methoxy phenyldithiophosphonate, was synthesized and then the kinetic behavior of the transport process as a function of concentration, temperature, stirring rate and solvents was investigated. RESULTS The compound 1 was characterized by elemental analysis, IR, 1H and 31P NMR spectroscopies. The transp...

Characterization of mercury binding protein in the human body is very important for understanding the metabolism and the mechanism of toxication of ingested mercuric compounds. In this study, mercury-containing protein in human plasma was separated by on-line heart-cutting two-dimensional high performance liquid chromatography (2D-HPLC). This 2D separation system used size exclusion liquid chro...

THE LOSS OF MERCURY due to volatilization and incomplete removal of oxidizing agents which destroy dithizone are among the major problems in determining mercury in urine. This paper describes a method by which these difficulties are reduced to a minimum. In actual use, this method has been found efficient in screening large numbers of workers exposed to a mercury hazard. Most methods require a ...

background: mercury is a heavy metal with high toxic effects. it has many apply to various industries, so can enter to the environment from different resources. therefore, its elimination from wastewater is a major challenge. in this study, removal of mercury from aqueous solution using two types of almond shell was investigated and compared. methods: this experimental-intervention study has be...

The stability of the mercury ion mediated dU-HgII-dU pair depends on substituents introduced at the 5-position of the pyrimidine moiety. To this end, a series of oligonucleotides were synthesized with dU modification in central position. Common and new phosphoramidites were utilized. Hybridization experiments provided 12-mer duplexes with non-canonical "dU-dU" pairs. In most cases Hg2+ stabiliz...

Sect. 2. Bacterial mercury transformations Certain bacteria that colonize the human gastrointestinal (GI) tract can methylate inorganic mercury to form methylmercury, CH3Hg(I). Other bacteria that also colonize gut ecosystem can reduce mercuric ion, Hg(II), to monoatomic elemental mercury, Hg(0), a form which readily diffuses across the body's membranes into circulation. The genes for the latte...

introduction: wastewaters of chemical, petrochemical, electrical, pharmaceutical and paper industries are the main sources of mercury and its compounds. mercury is one of the toxic elements, so its removal from water and industrial wastewaters seems to be important and essential. the objective of this study was to investigate effective factors such as ph, contact time, absorbent dose, mixing ra...

This study investigated the role of dissolved organic matter on mercury partitioning between a hydrophobic surface (polyethylene, PE) and a reduced sulfur-rich surface (polysulfide rubber, PSR). Comparative sorption studies employed polyethylene and polyethylene coated with PSR for reactions with DOM-bound mercuric ions. These studies revealed that PSR enhanced the Hg-DOM removal from water whe...

In this study a new method by Application of graphene oxide Nano sheets– Melamine –TioOxalic acid composite was exhibited as adsorbent for the elimination of toxic mercury (II) ions from aqueous solutions. The combine has the authority to adsorb the organic and inorganic combines. Through the immobilization of Melamine-TioOxalic acid (MTO) onto graphene oxide nanosheets, the desired composite w...
