background: due to the potential public health effects of releases of uranium to the environment, isotopic determination and measurement of this radionuclide in environmental samples is very important. achieving this goal, monitoring programs for this radionuclide seems necessary to be applied in many countries. materials and methods: the uranium was separated from the water samples using anion...

in present research work, homogeneous anion exchange membranes based on polysulfone (qapsfs) were prepared via chloromethylation, amination and alkalization. in amination step, trimethylamine and n,n,n',n'-tetramethyl-1,6-hexanediamine were used as amination and crosslinking agents, respectively. the chloromethylated polysulfone was characterized by 1hnmr spectroscopy and chloromethylation degr...

in the current research, polyvinylchloride based mixed matrix heterogeneous anion exchange membranes were prepared by a solution casting technique. titanium dioxide nanoparticles were also utilized as inorganic filler additive in the membrane fabrication. the effect of tio2 nanoparticles concentration in the casting solution on the membrane physico-chemical properties was studied. membrane wate...

A family of L-ornithine based salt receptors 1a-f was synthesized, bearing a cation binding site and multiple anion binding sites (nitrophenylurea and amide groups) that may simultaneously associate with a single anion. The variation in H-bond donor abilities of one of these anion binding sites has relatively little influence on NO2(-) anion binding when the anion is accompanied by a noncoordin...

New approaches to the transmembrane transport of anions are discussed in this review. Advances in the design of small molecule anion carriers are reviewed in addition to advances in the design of synthetic anion channels. The application of anion transporters to the potential future treatment of disease is discussed in the context of recent findings on the selectivity of anion transporters.

I use the Nernst equation, parameterised with experimental data, to predict that cancer cells will accumulate more of a lipophilic anion than normal cells. This effect is correlated to charge number. Model cancer cells accumulate *100 more of an anion, *10 more di-anion, *10 more tri-anion, *10 more tetra-anion and *10 more penta-anion (>>1 billion times more). The trend endures, conveying even...

In the title molecular salt, C(5)H(6)ClN(2) (+)·C(7)H(6)NO(2) (-), the cations and anions are connected by cation-to-anion and anion-to-anion N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional network. The dihedral angle between the ring and the CO(2) group in the anion is 7.14 (7)°.

Sugar cane bagasse was crosslinked with epichlorohydrin in the presence of NH4OH or imidazole. The obtained water-insoluble products were characterized in terms of yield, anion-exchange capacity, packed volume, and dye-binding properties. Yields were highest using a 3 : 1 epichlorohydrin to NH4OH molar ratio, producing weak anion exchangers. The weak anion exchangers had low dye-binding capacit...
