background and aims: chromium is considered as one of the important environmental pollutants. there is high concentration of chromium in the wastewater of electroplating industries. magnetic iron nanoparticles are used to control and eliminate heavy metals from industrial effluents through the mechanisms of adsorption, ion exchange and electro-static forces. the aim of this study was to evaluat...

background: salmonella enterica serovar typhi (s. typhi) the cause of the acute febrile disease typhoid fever is the major public health problem in developing countries. asymptomatic carriers are the main sources of typhoid. the aim of this study was to investigate methods for isolation and identification of s. typhi in asymptomatic carriers. materials and methods: two hundred stool samples wer...

The adsorption ability of Dowex Optipore L493 resin modified with Aliquat 336 (MR), activated carbon modified with Aliquat 336 (MAC) and sawdust modified with Aliquat 336 (MS) for removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution in batch system was investigated. The effects of operational parameters such as adsorbent dosage, initial concentration of Cr(VI) ions, pH, temperature and contact time were stu...

conclusions to solve the above mentioned difficulties, fundamental study most be carried out to discover the novel methods of ferrate(vi) production, focusing on increasing the product stability and the production yield. results despite the existence of these technologies, there is no full-scale application of ferrate(vi) in the water and wastewater industry which it is due to difficulties asso...

background : hexavalent chromium ( cr (vi)) is an important contaminant in surface and groundwater and its removal from contaminated water and wastewater has received interest in recent years. this study aimed to explain the removal process of cr (vi) from aqueous solution using nano hydroxyapatite (n-hap) as an adsorbent material. methods: cr (vi) removal experiments with the prepared n-hap we...
