Use of SPME extraction to determine organophosphorus pesticides adsorption phenomena in water and soil matrices
2005
Solid-phase micro extraction (SPME) coupled with GC enables rapid and simple analysis of organophosphorus pesticides in a range of complex matrices. Investigations were made into the extraction efficiencies from water of six organophosphorus insecticides (methamidophos, omethoate, dimethoate, parathion methyl, malathion, and parathion ethyl) showing a wide range of polarities. Three SPME fibres coated with different stationary phases, polydimethylsiloxane, polyacrylate, and carbowax-divinylbenzene (CW-DVB), were investigated. Water was spiked with the pesticides at concentrations from 1 to 0.01 µg mL-1, and the solutions used for optimization of the procedure. The CW-DVB fibre, with a 65 µm…
Mesoporous aluminum phosphite
2009
Abstract High surface area pure mesoporous aluminum-phosphorus oxide-based derivatives have been synthesized through an S+I− surfactant-assisted cooperative mechanism by means of a one-pot preparative procedure from aqueous solution and starting from aluminum atrane complexes and phosphoric and/or phosphorous acids. A soft chemical extraction procedure allows opening the pore system of the parent as-prepared materials by exchanging the surfactant without mesostructure collapse. The nature of the pore wall can be modulated from mesoporous aluminum phosphate (ALPO) up to total incorporation of phosphite entities (mesoporous aluminum phosphite), which results in a gradual evolution of the acid…
Fabrication of metal nano-structures using anodic alumina membranes grown in phosphoric acid solution: Tailoring template morphology
2007
Abstract The influence of experimental parameters on the morphology of the porous structure and on the formation kinetics has been investigated for anodic alumina membranes (AAM) grown in aqueous H 3 PO 4 at 160 V. It was found that pore aspect ratio and membrane porosity on the solution-side surface are influenced by tensiostatic charge, bath temperature and the presence of Al 3+ ions in solution. Morphological and kinetic data, recorded in different conditions, give useful information on the growth mechanism of pore channels in phosphoric acid solution. Nickel nano-structures have been fabricated using AAM as template. Electroless deposition, performed by adding the reducing agent to a su…
Oxidative transformation of aryls using molybdenum pentachloride.
2012
Molybdenum pentachloride combines a strong Lewis acid character with an unusually high oxidation potential creating a powerful reagent for oxidative transformations. Since the oxidative coupling reaction of aryls is induced at an extraordinarily high reaction rate, a variety of labile groups, e.g. iodo, tert-alkyl, etc., are tolerated on the aromatic core. Furthermore, the co-formed molybdenum salts can either be exploited for template effects to obtain uncommon geometries in a preferred manner, or redox-play starts after aqueous workup. Therefore MoCl(5) represents a unique and easily available reagent.
Conductimetric study of struvite crystallization in water as a function of pH
2017
Abstract The main objective of this work was to investigate the best pH for phosphorus removal from synthetic aqueous solutions using chemical precipitation of struvite, at constant temperature. The experimental approach, developed in the present study, consisted to precipitate struvite in synthetic wastewater containing PO 4 3− , NH 4 + and Mg 2+ ions in an equal molar ratio, using a stirred tank with continuous monitoring by conductimetry, at 25 °C. Different laboratory experiments were used to evaluate the effects of pH in the range of 8.5 till 11.8, on size, shape, and purity of the precipitated crystals. Struvite crystals were characterized by Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning ele…
From pedologic indications to archaeological reconstruction: deciphering land use in the Islamic period in the Baida district (north-western Sicily)
2013
Abstract The aim of this work was to detect imprints on soil properties from former Islamic land use (9th to 11th century) using a multi-method, soil-chemical approach. Four soil profiles (with buried horizons) found in the vicinities of former Islamic settlements in Sicily were analysed for phosphorus (total, organic and inorganic), nitrogen (total, NO 3 − and NH 4 + ), carbon compounds (δ 13 C, lipids, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and functional groups), physical and chemical C-fractions and the state of soil weathering. Two soil profiles contained ceramic sherds from the Islamic period. Inorganic nitrogen forms, phosphorous and the PAH content indicated strong impacts from trad…
Protein Kinase C Activation Promotes the Internalization of the Human Cationic Amino Acid Transporter hCAT-1
2004
The human cationic amino acid transporter hCAT-1 is almost ubiquitously expressed and probably the most important entity for supplying cells with extracellular arginine, lysine, and ornithine. We have previously shown that hCAT-1-mediated transport is decreased after protein kinase C (PKC) activation by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) (Graf, P., Forstermann, U., and Closs, E. I. (2001) Br. J. Pharmacol. 132, 1193-1200). In the present study, we examined the mechanism of this down-regulation. In both Xenopus laevis oocytes and U373MG glioblastoma cells, PMA treatment promoted the internalization of hCAT-1 (fused to the enhanced green fluorescence protein (EGFP)) as visualized by fluore…
Safety and feasibility of atropine added in patients with sub-maximal heart rate during exercise myocardial perfusion SPECT.
2006
Failure to reach 80% of maximal predicted heart rate (HR) during exercise may render a myocardial perfusion single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) study non-diagnostic for ischemia detection. We sought to investigate the injection of atropine in patients who fail to achieve 80% of age-predicted HR during exercise performed for myocardial perfusion SPECT (MPS), defining its safety and efficacy to raise HR to adequate levels as well as its effect on MPS interpretation.Between January 2002 and December 2004, we studied 3,150 consecutive patients (2,253 men and 897 women, mean age 55 +/- 6 years) who were referred to a single office-based nuclear cardiology laboratory for MPS using …
Receptor phosphorylation does not mediate cross talk between muscarinic M(3) and bradykinin B(2) receptors.
1999
This study examined cross talk between phospholipase C-coupled muscarinic M3and bradykinin B2receptors coexpressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. Agonists of either receptor enhanced phosphoinositide signaling (which rapidly desensitized) and caused protein kinase C (PKC)-independent, homologous receptor phosphorylation. Muscarinic M3but not bradykinin B2receptors were also phosphorylated after phorbol ester activation of PKC. Consistent with this, muscarinic M3receptors were phosphorylated in a PKC-dependent fashion after bradykinin B2receptor activation, but muscarinic M3receptor activation did not influence bradykinin B2receptor phosphorylation. Despite heterologous phosphorylatio…
Inhibitoren der Korrosion 21 (1) - Autoxidationsstudien an Fe2+-Salzen der Tetramethylen-1,4-bis-phosphonsäure, der Hexamethylen-1,6-bis-phosphonsäur…
1978
Die Wirksamkeit der organischen Bisphosphonsauren als Inhibitoren der Korrosion von Eisen ist dadurch bedingt, das die aus der Eisenoberflache auftretenden Fe2+-Ionen direkt am Austrittsort mit den Sauren reagieren und an Ort und Stelle dreidimensional vernetzte Deckschichten aufbauen. Je dichter die Struktur dieser Schichten, je bestandiger das Netzwerk gegen Sauerstoff und je hydrolysebestandiger die FeOP-Bindungen, desto besser ist die Schutzwirkung: Dadurch wird sowohl dem Sauerstoff als auch dem Chloridion der Zugang zur Metalloberflache verwehrt. Die Modellversuche ermoglichen aufgrund der Verteilung des Phosphors in den Niederschlagen Ruckschlusse auf den Vernetzungsgrad. Corrosion I…
