chlorination of natural water containing humic compounds, produce significant amount of disinfectant by - products. the most important of such compounds are thlvis and halo acetic acids, suspected to cause cancer in animals and human. studies showed that under usual processes of water treatment plants, thms can not be removed effectively. since chlorination is the final process of treatment, it...

palladium (ii) coordination complexes catalyze the reaction of alcohols with ketones to yield ethers. during the catalytic cycle, the alcohol adds selectively to the β-carbon (anti-markovnikov). in this work, mechanism and kinetics for the reaction of methanol with methyl vinyl ketone (mvk), being catalyzed by pd, has been theoretically investigated in detail. using quantum mechanical approach,...

introduction: carbamazepine is commonly used in a variety of indications. poisoning by this drug, can lead to coma, seizures, cardiac disorders and respiratory distress. the treatment of poisoning is generally supportive. method: 68 poisoned patients with carbamazepine, who referred to poisoning ward of loghman hospital, from july 2003 to september 2004, were studied. these patients were invest...

Phosphorylase kinase (PhK), a 1.3 MDa enzyme complex that regulates glycogenolysis, is composed of four copies each of four distinct subunits (α, β, γ, and δ). The catalytic protein kinase subunit within this complex is γ, and its activity is regulated by the three remaining subunits, which are targeted by allosteric activators from neuronal, metabolic, and hormonal signaling pathways. The regu...

this study focus on the preparation of two supports including activated carbon derived from medlar and palladium nanoparticles loaded on activated carbon (pd-np-ac). subsequently, both adsorbent modified with a novel schiff base chelating agent and their potential applicability for determination of trace amounts of metal ions from aqueous solution has been investigated. the method is based on c...
