A quantum chemical analysis has been carried out of the equilibrium structure and energy parameters of hydrated Li+, Na+, and K+ cations interacting with ionized silica surface by means of density functional theory metho...

The solution of nonlinear Fredholm integro-differential equations plays a significant role in analyzing many nonlinear events that occur in chemistry, physics, mathematical biology, and a variety of other fields of scien...

The Pampeano aquifer formed by loess-like sediments provides water to cities and for agricultural uses in the Pampean plain, which is the most productive area in Argentina. Studies on the mechanisms through which this gr...

The reliability of results obtained by multivariate curve resolution (MCR) methods is strongly dependent on the absence or presence of a small degree of rotational ambiguity associated to them. In this work, the effect o...

The retention, release, and detection of metallic complexes in polymeric hydrogels are of interest in drug delivery, analytical chemistry, and water remediation. The electrochemistry of the redox complexes inside the hyd...

In order to achieve the second-order advantage, second-order data per sample is usually required, e.g., kinetic-spectrophotometric data. In this study, instead of monitoring the time evolution of spectra (and collecting ...

This contribution deals with the structure and reactivity of bound nitrosyl in transition-metal centers (group 8: Fe, Ru, Os). The focus is set on pseudooctahedral nitrosyl-complexes with coordination number 5 and 6, con...

The ability of prokaryotic microorganisms to reduce the inorganic metals has opened up an exciting eco‐friendly approach towards the development of natural ‘nano‐factories’. However, a number of issues have to be...

The capability of paramegnetic iron-containing hydroxyapatite (Fe-nAp) and waste bioorganic subtrates templeted iron-containing hydroxyapatite (SBO-Fe-nAp) nanoparticles, as Pb(II) cations adsorbants were investigated an...

The purpose of this paper is to study the psychometric proprieties of a new test aimed to measure scientific creativity, the Creative Scientific Ability Test (C-SAT, Sak & Ayas, 2011). The test has been validated in diff...

Titanium and its alloys have a crucial function in the biomaterial field. Nonetheless, susceptibility to infections is an important drawback that needs to be considered. In this context, current research on antibacterial...

Teaching chemistry on the topic of atomic structure still faces challenges due to its abstract nature and the limitations of teaching materials in visualizing the concept. The use of Assemblr Edu, which provides interact...

Molecular design and preparation of redox active films displaying mesoscopic levels of organization represents one of the most actively pursued research areas in nanochemistry. These mesostructured materials are not only...

We present a molecular theory to study the adsorption of different species within pH-sensitive hydrogel nanofilms. The theoretical framework allows for a molecular-level description of all the components of the system, a...

The new charge-transfer complexes (CT) of eleven Schiff1 bases molecules as n-electron donors with the acceptor 1,4-naphthoquinone were studied spectrophotometrically in chloroform solution. The physical constants (a,b,C...

Differential equations are equations that relate a function to one or more of its derivatives. Nonlinear means that the equation is not directly proportional to the function and its derivatives. In other words, its varia...

A novel centrifuge-less cloud point extraction (CL-CPE) method was developed for the spectrophotometric determination of copper(II) using 4-nitrocatechol (4NC) as the chelating agent. The extraction system utilizes a mix...

The structure and energetics of two types of oxygen-terminated diamond surfaces, the keto and ether configurations, were investigated by density functional theory. To explore OH generation, we studied the approach of a h...

The convergence of chemistry, biology, and materials science has paved the way to the emergence of hybrid nanobuilding blocks that incorporate the highly selective recognition properties of biomolecules, with the tailora...

For the first time, the spectrofluorimetric properties of estrone (E1), 17β-estradiol (E2), estriol (E3), and 17α-ethinylestradiol (EE2) are studied in aqueous solutions after the addition of native and derivative cycl...

We performed a systematic approach using statistical tools to understand the effect of the water chemistry on removal of microorganisms using ultrafiltration. We applied a four-factor at two-level factorial design with c...

ABSTRACT Phthalates such as isophthalate, phthalate, and terephthalate are widespread environmental pollutants with significant health and ecological impacts. Comamonas testosteroni KF1 initiates isophthalate degradation...

Abstract Tenebrio molitor larvae, as known as edible insects, has advantages of being rich in protein, and has been recognized as a suitable alternate protein source for broiler and pig feed. Moreover, given their abilit...
