1. Ammonium chloride is a poor uncoupler of photophosphorylation in subchloroplast particles. In the presence of valinomycin the inhibition of photophosphorylation by NH&l is greatly enhanced. 2. The enhancement of the ammonium chloride uncoupling of phosphorylation by valinomycin was less pronounced in chloroplasts than in subchloroplast particles. 3. The light-dependent uptake of ammonium ion...

Bulk boron materials, such as hexagonal nitride (h-BN), are highly selective catalysts for the oxidative dehydrogenation of propane (ODHP). Previous attempts to improve productivity these systems involved immobilization on silica and resulted in less catalysts. Here, we report that acid-treated, activated carbon-supported prepared via incipient wetness impregnation with boric acid (B/OAC) exhib...

Ultrasound is critical in many areas of medicine including obstetrics, oncology, and cardiology with emerging applications in regenerative medicine. However, one critical limitation of ultrasound is the low contrast of target tissue over background. Here, we describe a novel cup-shaped silica nanoparticle that is reminiscent of exosomes and that has significant ultrasound impedance mismatch for...

Silica Vanadic Acid, SVA, (oxo-vanadium has been supported on silica) as a dual Lewis and Bronsted acid ability was prepared and efficiently catalyzed one-pot multi-component condensation of enolizable ketones or alkyl acetoacetates with aromatic aldehydes, acetonitrile and acetyl chloride. The described reaction was produced β-acetamido ketone or ester derivatives in high to excellent yields i...

a new polymorph crystalline silica composition having uniform pore dimensions were synthesized by calcining a crystalline hydrated alkyl-ammonium silicate. the pore dimensions approximately were 6 angstrom for silicalite-1 and 11 angstrom for silicalite-2 units. the silicalite-1 was prepared hydrothermally at a ph of about 10 from a reaction mixture consist of water, amorphous silica and a quat...

Mechanisms regulating the red cell pH in lamprey (Lampetra fluviatilis) were studied using the ammonium chloride prepulse technique. The cells were initially incubated in a physiological saline containing 20 mmol l-1 ammonium chloride, and intracellular pH measured with the DMO technique. Ammonium chloride was then rapidly removed by centrifugation, and the changes in the intracellular pH follo...

An efficient solventless one-pot procedure for the synthesis of imidazolium-based ionic liquid under microwave irradiation is described in which 1-methylimidazole was modified by organosilane (3-chloropropyl triethoxysilane). This ionic liquid 1-methyl-3-[(triethoxysilyl)propyl]imidazolium chloride (TMICl) is immobilized on Mechanically activated Fly Ash (MFA) by co-condensation method to d...
