Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleKinetics of Chromium Sorption on Biomass Fungi from Aqueous SolutionLouhab Krim, Sahmoune Nacer, Goma BilangoThe kinetics of chromium ions sorption from aqueous solution on fungi biomass have been investigated in a batch system. The experimental data were analysed based on an intraparticle diffusion equation and a pseudo-second-order mechanism, in order to predict the constant rate of sorption and the equilibrium capacity with the effect of initial chromium ions concentration, temperature and initial solution pH. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,418 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleChromium (III) Removal and Recovery from Tannery Wastewater by Precipitation ProcessAbass Esmaeili, Alireza Mesdaghi nia, Reza VazirinejadChromium (III) salts are the most widely used chemicals for tanning processes, but 60-70% of total chromium salts reacts with the hides. In the other word, about 30-40% of the chromium amount remains in the solids and liquid wastes (especially spent tanning solutions). Therefore, the removal and recovery of the chromium content of these wastewaters are necessary for environmental protection … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 8,679 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleProtective Effect of Lactoferrin against Chromium Induced Adverse Renal Changes in Rats: Oxidative Stress TheoryMohammed H. Hassan, Dorreia Abd-Alla Mohamed Zaghloul, Marwa Ahmed Mahmoud et al.Among the toxic metals, chromium (Cr) which is a naturally occurring heavy metal commonly enters the environment through the effluents from various industries. Kidney disease is often cited as an adverse effect of chromium. We aimed to assess chromium-induced pathophysiological adverse renal damage and determine the potential protective effects of co-therapy with Lactoferrin (LF) in male albino rats. Forty male … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 28 Apr 2021 · 6,663 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHexavalent Chromium Removal by Litchi chinensis Sonn PeelIsmael Acosta-Rodriguez, Rigoberto Martinez-Perez, Juan F. Cardenas-Gonzalez et al.Problem statement: We studied the Chromium (VI) removal capacity in aqueous solution by the litchi peel. Approach: We use the diphenylcarbazide method to evaluate the metal concentration. Results: The highest biosorption of the metal (50 mg L-1) occurs within 6 min, at pH of 1 and 28°C. According to temperature, the highest removal was observed at 40 and 50°C, in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 1 Mar 2012 · 8,223 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsApplication of ZnO Nano Rods for the Batch Adsorption of Cr(VI): A Study of Kinetics and IsothermsSushma Kamath, Venu Gopal Vishwakarma Ramanjaneyalu, Susmita KamilaThe present study reports the synthesis of nano Zinc Oxide (ZnO) and its adsorption behaviour. The ZnO obtained by precipitation method were found to be well-defined nano rods arranged like flower. The shape, size and structure of ZnO were characterized from X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) analysis. These nano rods were utilized for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 12 Apr 2019 · 8,072 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNanoscale Pitch Standards Sample Fabricated using Laser-Focused Atomic DepositionYan Ma, Tongbao Li, Yajun Zhao et al.Problem statement: Nanotechnology is already a large sector of industry and science research and it is expected to continue to grow at very fast rate. The determination of absolute measurements of length at the nanometer scale and below is very difficult and expensive. So the nanoscale metrology standard is needed. Approach: The laser-focused atomic deposition is a new way to … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 3 Sep 2012 · 7,245 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMicrobial Response to the Application of Amendments in a Contaminated Soil with Trace ElementsA. Branzini, M. S. Zubillaga, M. M. ZubillagaProblem Statement: The anthropogenic activities can cause adverse effects in soils, increasing in some situations trace elements contents, impacting negatively both the microbial biomass and activity. Among the practices used for the recovery of soil quality we can find the application of organic amendments or the product of their composting. These can adsorb trace elements decreasing their availability and increasing … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,177 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBiochemical and Immunological Study on the Effects of Barley and its Components as Hypoglycemic Agents in Diabetic RatsMokhtar I. Yousef, Medhat Haroun, Mohamed H. El-Masry, Reham EA. AteiaThe present study was carried out to investigate the hypoglycemic effect of barley (Hordeum vulgare L) and some of its components such as amino acids (L-leucine and L-glutamine) and chromium picolinate on some biochemical and immunological parameters of alloxan induced diabetic rats. Alloxan-diabetic rats were treated with barley water (10% w/v) at a dose 10 ml Kg-1 b.wt., chromium picolinate … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,233 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDetection of Exogenous Heavy Metal Pesticide Residues in Traditional Chinese Medicine Based on Fluorescent Carbon Quantum DotsYanan He, Shuyin WangThe analysis method based on fluorescent probes has received increasing attention due to its high sensitivity, fast response, and real-time visualization characteristics. Therefore, the application of fluorescent probes for rapid detection of heavy metal pesticide residues in traditional Chinese medicine is of great significance. This study innovatively synthesized B/N co-doped carbon quantum dots using 3-aminophenylboronic acid as the raw material, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 10 Apr 2026 · 1,610 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBioaccumulation of Cr(III) ions by Blue-Green alga Spirulina sp. Part I. A Comparison with BiosorptionKatarzyna ChojnackaThe paper presents the results of studies on kinetics and equilibrium of bioaccumulation process of Cr(III) ions by blue-green alga Spirulina sp. Bioaccumulation was described as the process that consists of two stages, passive (identical with biosorption) and active (accumulation inside the cells). The passive stage (similarly as biosorption itself) was found to be quick process and the subsequent active … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,702 accessesView PDFCite
