The hydrothermal method was used to synthesize carbon sphere, and the hard template synthesis prepared C-doped hollow TiO2 sphere (CHTS). Bismuth nitrate as bismuth source modify CHTS. composite material oxidized in air atmosphere at 450℃ obtain Bi2O3 modified spheres(BCHTS). morphology, elemental composition photocatalytic degradation efficiency of tetracyclines (TC) by BCHTS spheres were char...

Despite the topical action of colloidal bismuth subcitrate in promoting the healing of peptic ulcers, slight absorption of bismuth from the gastrointestinal tract has been reported in colloidal bismuth subcitrate-treated animals and man. The uptake and subcellular distribution of bismuth by the gastrointestinal tract of rats after 24 hours of colloidal bismuth subcitrate administration was stud...

Exopolysaccharides interfere with the isolation and characterization of plasmid DNA from gram-negative bacteria. To repress capsular polysaccharide production, bacteria were cultured in medium containing bismuth nitrate and sodium salicylate. Rapid removal of other contaminating bacterial surface components was achieved by mild acidic zwitterionic detergent extraction. After treatment, bacteria...

Three novel bismuth(III) complexes with in situ synthesized dihydroxybenzoquinone (anilic acid) ligands, namely [Bi(H(3)dhbqdc)(H(2)dhbqdc)]·2.5dmf (1), [Bi(2)(mdhbqdc)(ox)(2)(dmf)(4)] (2) and [Bi(2)(mdhbqdc)(2)(ox)(dmf)(4)] (3) (H(4)dhbqdc = 3,6-dihydroxy-2,5-benzoquinone-1,4-dicarboxylic acid; H(2)mdhbqdc = dimethyl 3,6-dihydroxy-2,5-benzoquinone-1,4-dicarboxylate, ox = oxalate, dmf = dimethy...

Bismuth - sulphur quantum dots can be silver enhanced by autometallography (AMG). In the present study, autometallographic silver enhanced bismuth-sulphur nanocrystals were isolated from unfixed cryo-sections of kidneys and livers of rats exposed to bismuth (Bi207) subnitrate. After being subjected to AMG all the organic material was removed by sonication and enzymatic digestion and the silver ...
