Iron ore concentrate sales in a mineral processing plant appeared a trend of high sulfur, exceeding the sales requirement of 0.3% significantly. To this end, for the sulfide in iron concentrate mainly exists in the form of pyrrhotite, companies with iron minerals and has a high degree of oxidation, we can add flotation agent to the magnetic separation column, and at the same time fill gas for s...

BACKGROUND Iron poisoning is a major cause of unintentional poisoning death in young children. The US Food and Drug Administration proclaimed a regulation for unit-dose packaging of iron supplements in 1997. OBJECTIVE To determine whether the requirement for unit-dose packaging of iron supplements decreases the incidence of iron ingestion and the incidence of deaths due to iron poisoning in c...

ABSTRACT Background: Tumor cells exhibit an increased requirement for iron to support their rapid proliferation. Deferoxamine (DFO), an iron chelator, has been reported to have anti-proliferative effects on cancer cells through induction of apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. X-rays also induce apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. However, limited information is available regarding the effect of iron...

The characteristics of manganese and iron binding to human apotransferrin (apo-tf) have been investigated and compared in this study. Both metal ions were taken up by human apo-tf and formed complexes, with the maximum absorbances observed at 410 and 340 nm for manganese-transferrin (Mn-tf) and 465 nm for iron-transferrin (Fe-tf). Addition of manganese (1.5 µg/ml) to the reaction mixture contai...

Given the modulation of iron metabolism by hypoxia and the high iron requirement of neoplastic cells, we investigated iron metabolism in a human renal cancer cell line with a mutated von Hippel Lindau (VHL) tumor suppressor gene (RCC10) and in a transfectant clone with wild-type VHL (RCC63). The loss of VHL strongly up-regulated transferrin receptor expression in RCC10 cells as a result of hypo...

Today climate change is one of the most important human concerns This fact affected human life in different ways .  one of the most important impacts of climate change is on crops yield so that change in temperature  regime  particularly maximum and minimum  temperatures  is noticeably change plants production . in this research , is considered to  impact of climate change on water requirement ...

BACKGROUND The current dietary iron requirement (80 mg/kg) of broilers is mainly based on growth, hemoglobin concentration, or hematocrit data obtained in a few early studies; however, expressions of iron-containing enzymes might be more sensitive novel criteria to evaluate dietary iron requirements. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to determine dietary iron requirements of broilers ...

I . Iron deficiency was induced in albino rats by a milk-powder diet. Control groups were given milk powder plus an iron source. 2. The haemoglobin content of the blood was determined once each month. When the haemoglobin level fell to 10 g/Ioo ml or less in the deficient animals, determinations were made of the vitamin C content of 24 h urine as well as of liver, kidney, adrenals, brain and bl...

1. Transferrin-bound iron was released by a cell-free solution prepared from Rana catesbeiana immature erythrocytes, showing that cellular integrity is not necessarily a requirement for this process as previously thought. 2. The biological molecule(s) involved in the removal of iron from transferrin is relatively small.
