Field flow fractionation is a family of separation techniques applicable to characterize various particulate materials of different nature. In this paper, formation of porous graphite during milling has been investigated by gravitational field flow fractionation. The results from gravitational field flow fractionation were compared to those from Brunauer-Emmett-Teller. The both techniques have ...

abstract in order to assess the availability of phosphorous (p), different methods have been proposed in the last decades. the results of these methods in soils with various ph, calcium carbonate, organic matter, al and fe oxides and hydroxides and other properties especially in iranian soils can not be used. in addition, knowledge about transformation of p forms is necessary for perception of ...

abstract with increasing population, mine activities for metal proceeding are also increasing, so environment will be influenced by contaminant especially heavy metals. in situ immobilization of heavy metals using inexpensive amendments is considered as a simple and cost-effective approach for reducing heavy metal contamination. in this research we used sequential extraction for assessing reduc...

Uranium groundwater contamination due to U mining and processing affects numerous sites globally. Bioreduction of soluble, mobile U(VI) to U(IV)-bearing solids is potentially a very effective remediation strategy. Uranium isotopes (238U/235U) have been utilized to track the progress of microbial reduction, with laboratory and field studies finding a ∼1‰ isotopic fractionation, with the U(IV) pr...

Batch culture experiments were performed with 32 different sulfate-reducing prokaryotes to explore the diversity in sulfur isotope fractionation during dissimilatory sulfate reduction by pure cultures. The selected strains reflect the phylogenetic and physiologic diversity of presently known sulfate reducers and cover a broad range of natural marine and freshwater habitats. Experimental conditi...

Introduction: Radiation effects induced in non-irradiated cells are termed radiation- induced bystander effects (RIBE). The present study intends to examine the RIBE response of QU-DB bystander cells to first, second and third radiation fractions and compare their cumulative outcome with an equal, single acute dose.   Materials and Methods: This experimental ...

The Mg isotopic compositions of olivine, spinel, and hihonite from the Murchison carbonaceous chondrite have been determined by secondary ion mass spectrometry. The olivines exhibit only marginal effects. They have no detectable intrinsic mass fractionation; however, after correcting for mass fractionation, the mean residual 26Mg/24Mg for the five grams is slightly in excess of the terrestrial ...

Efficient release of fermentable sugars from the complex biomass structure such as second-generation or third-generation feedstocks by an appropriate enzymatic hydrolysis needs a prior fractionation. This process facilitates exposure more cellulose and hemicelluloses for hydrolysis. review focused on ‘green fractionation’ applying principles green chemistry bioethanol production. Besides, recen...
