The Impact Of Polyacrylamide Molecular Weight On Its Adsorption Behavior At The Gold/Acidic Solution Interface, Dragica B. Chamovska, Toma P. Grchev, Maja V. Cvetkovska
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Adsorption isotherms for polyacrylamide (PAA) on polycrystalline gold, from sulfuric acid (potential range 0-2.0 V/she; 293 K), were obtained by means of cyclic voltammetry with simultaneous monitoring of the double-layer capacity. The Frumkin isotherm indicates that relatively strong attractive forces are present (a = 0.8-1.0), and the Gibbs energies range between 43 and 56 kJ mol^{-1}. The coverage (\theta) of the metal surface with polymer molecules depends on the molar concentration of PAA, as well as on its molecular weight, and the size of the statistical polymer coil in the solution (R_G = 7.49 \times 10^{-3} \times M_n^{0.64}/nm). The adsorption …

Template Synthesis And Structural Characterization Of Homo Binuclear Chromium(Iii), Manganese(Iii), Iron(Iii), Cobalt(Iii), And Ruthenium(Iii) Complexes With Octaazamacrocyclic Ligands, Vinod K. Sharma, Shipra Srivastava
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
The Schiff base octaazamacrocyclic ligands derived from primary diamines and 3,6-dimethyl/diphenyl-4,5-diazaocta-3,5-diene-2,7-dione, and their binuclear complexes [M_2LCl_4]Cl_2 [M = Cr(III), Fe(III), Co(III), or Ru(III)] and [Mn_2L(AcO)_4](AcO)_2 were synthesized by template condensation reactions. Attempts to synthesize the corresponding metal-free macrocyclic ligands did not prove successful. The overall geometry and stereochemistry of these complexes were elucidated by elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibilities, electronic spectra, infrared spectra, molar conductance measurements, ^1H NMR, and thermogravimetric analysis. All the trivalent metal ion complexes appear to be 1:2 electrolytes. An octahedral geometry is proposed for all the complexes.

Enterotoxigenic Staphylococcus Aureus In Raw Milk In The North Of Palestine, Ghaleb Mohammad Adwan, Bassam Abu-Shanab, Kamel Adwan
Turkish Journal of Biology
Enterotoxin genes (sea-see) in Staphylococcus aureus isolates recovered from milk of clinically healthy sheep and cows in the north of Palestine were determined using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Thirty-seven (37%) out of 100 S. aureus isolates were toxin gene positive. Four strains (10.8%) were sea-positive, 20 (54.1%) were seb-positive, 4 (10.8%) were sec-positive, 6 (16.2%) were sed-positive and 3 (8.1%) were see-positive. None of these enterotoxigenic isolates carried more than one toxin gene. This study indicates that the presence of enterotoxigenic S. aureus in raw milk can contribute to the sources of staphylococcal food poisoning in Palestine.
