Recently, the use of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONS) as a new and promising source of iron in agriculture has been suggested that further investigation is needed before extensive field use. In a greenhouse experiment, the effect of coated magnetite nanoparticles with humic acid (Fe3O4/HA NPs) was investigated on iron deficiency chlorosis and photosynthesis efficiency compare...

BACKGROUND Solid-phase assays to distinguish complement binding from noncomplement binding HLA-specific antibodies have been introduced, but technical limitations may compromise their interpretation. We have examined the extent to which C1q-binding to HLA-class I single-antigen beads (SAB) is influenced by denatured HLA on SAB, antibody titre, and complement interference that causes a misleadin...

A novel magnetic polymer/bentonite composite was prepared by suspension copolymerization of glycidyl methacrylate and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate in the presence bentonite (MB-PGME) functionalized with diamine hexamethylene (MB-PGME-ED MB-PGME-HD). The obtained samples were characterized terms structure as well thermal, morphological properties. sorption rhenium (Re) tungsten (W) from aqueou...

Monoliths functionalized with ethylene diamine-derived ligands were synthetized within micro-sized channels as highly permeable catalytic supports for the immobilization of in-situ generated gold nanoparticles. The as-obtained hybrids, essentially differing on grafted amine-containing compared, notably regarding immobilized nanoparticles morphology and their dispersion at monolith pore surface....
