Unusual binding ability of α,β-dehydrodipeptides towards metal ions
1994
Abstract Ni II , Zn II and Co II complexes of α,β-dehydro-dipeptides (containing Gly, Leu, Ala, Val or Phe residues) were studied by potentiometric and spectroscopic methods. Deprotonation and coordination of amide nitrogens occurred in all cases around the physiological pH range. The dipeptides with composition of Xaa-Δ-Ala formed octahedral species, while Gly-Δ-Xaa (Xaa = Leu or Phe) formed square planar bis complexes with Ni II .
Effect of pH and nitrite concentration on nitrite oxidation rate
2011
The effect of pH and nitrite concentration on the activity of the nitrite oxidizing bacteria (NOB) in an activated sludge reactor has been determined by means of laboratory batch experiments based on respirometric techniques. The bacterial activity was measured at different pH and at different total nitrite concentrations (TNO 2). The experimental results showed that the nitrite oxidation rate (NOR) depends on the TNO 2 concentration independently of the free nitrous acid (FNA) concentration, so FNA cannot be considered as the real substrate for NOB. NOB were strongly affected by low pH values (no activity was detected at pH 6.5) but no inhibition was observed at high pH values (activity wa…
Speciation of organotin compounds in NaCl aqueous solution: interaction of mono-, di- and tri-organotin(IV) cations with nucleotide 5′ monophosphates
2004
Formation constants for complex species of mono-, di- and tri-alkyltin(IV) cations with some nucleotide 5'-monophosphates (AMP, UMP, IMP and GMP) are reported, at T=25°C and at I = 0.16 mol 1 -1 (NaCI). The investigation was performed in the light of speciation of organometallic compounds in natural fluids in the presence of nucleotides whose biological importance is well recognized. The simple and mixed hydrolytic complex species formed in all the systems investigated in the pH range 3-9 are (L = nucleotide; M = organotin cation R x Sn (4-x)+ , with x = 1 to 3): ML + , ML(OH)° and ML(OH) 2 - for the system CH 3 Sn 3+ -L (L = AMP, IMP, UMP); ML 0 and ML(OH)-for the system (C 2 H 5 ) 2 Sn 2+…
