Zinc kinetics were studied and compared after oral simultaneous administration of two tracers, radioactive (Zn-65) and stable (Zn-70) isotope, to four normal human volunteers. Both tracers and zinc concentration were measured in plasma, red blood cells (RBC), urine, and feces for up to 78 days. Radioactive zinc was also measured by external counting over whole body, liver, and thigh. Data from each individual were analyzed using a compartmental model for zinc metabolism. Values calculated for absorption, fractional zinc excretion in urine, exchange with RBC, and secretion into gut using Zn-70 data did not differ from values calculated using Zn-65 data. Results show that human zinc metabolism can be investigated using stable isotopes as tracers to determine parameters of whole body zinc metabolism, including zinc absorption, excretion, and secretion.

Kinetics of H2S sorbtion on manganese oxide and Mn-Fe-Cu mixed oxide prepared by the Complexation Technique Caglayan, P; Yasyerli, S; Ar, I; Dogu, G; Doğu, Timur (2006-04-02) Hydrogen sulfide sorption activities of manganese oxide and Mn-Fe-Cu mixed oxide sorbents were examined in a fixed bed reactor. Sulfur retention capacity of Mn-O sorbent was found to be quite high at 600 degrees C both in the absence and presence of hydrogen gas (0.17 and 0.14 g S/g sorbent, respectively). This sorbent has a high porosity and a relatively high surface area. Best regeneration temperature of this sorbent was found as 700 degrees C, with a gas stream containing 6% oxygen in nitrogen. Mn-Fe-Cu ...
Theoretical optical spectra of some [2(2)](1,4)-cyclophane fused tetraazaporphyrins Türker, Burhan Lemi (2002-07-26) ZINDO/S type semiempirical molecular orbital calculations were carried out on the benzo and [22](1,4)-cyclophane fused tetraazaporphyrins. The phane deck was found to be influential on UV-Vis singlet transitions causing some bathochromic shifts.
Microbiology of Activated Sludge Treating Wastewater Containing Ni II and Cr VI Dilek, Filiz Bengü (1996-06-28) The species of microorganisms dominating a laboratory-scale once-through activated sludge unit treating simulated wastewater with different influent strengths (650 and 1300 mgl(-1) COD) and containing 5 to 10 mgl(-1) Ni(II) and 1 to 50 mgl(-1) Cr(VI) were identified by standard biochemical tests. Within this framework, combinations of metals and influent COD concentrations were tried. Organisms, namely Proteus rettgeri, Acinetobacter sp., Flavobacterium lutescens, Bacillus cereus var. albolactis, Klebsiella...
Manufacturing, mechanical and microstructural characterization of AZ91D magnesium alloy for biomedical applications Kayhan, Said Murat; Evis, Zafer; Koç, Muammer; Department of Engineering Sciences (2015) In this study, the microstructural and mechanical properties of the Mg-based implant samples prepared via powder metallurgy route were investigated. Moreover, the biological response of the Mg-based implant samples was investigated. AZ91D Mg alloy discs with smooth and textured surfaces were manufactured under compaction pressures of 25 and 40 MPa at 150⁰C. They were then sintered at 380⁰C for 30 and 150 mins. The microstructural evaluation was conducted through SEM and light microcopy images. As compaction...
