Summary The characteristics of bioflocculant MBF3-3 produced by Bacillus sp. BF3-3 were investigated here. MBF3-3 showed excellent flocculating activity on real and synthetic wastewaters, and consumed
a much lower dosage than that of the widely used polyaluminum chloride (PAC) when flocculating brewery wastewater. Except
Fe 3+, metal ions, including Al 3+, Mg 2+, Ca 2+, K + and Na +, can stimulate the flocculating activity of MBF3-3 obviously, and the stimulating effects increased in the order: monovalent < bivalent < trivalent.
MBF3-3 was mainly composed of acidic polysaccharide (66.1%) and protein (29.3%), in which acidic polysaccharide was the main
effective flocculating component. OH and COO– groups may play a vital role in the flocculation of suspended particles. 相似文献

The chemiluminescene generated from the reaction of a thermally stable phenylphosphate‐substituted dioxetane Lumigen PPD at ambient temperature was studied in DMSO solution. The presence of trivalent metal ions Cr 3+, Ga 3+, Fe 3+ and Al 3+ was found to quench the resulting chemiluminescence dramatically. The system resulted in nice Stern–Volmer plots in the quencher concentration range 1.5 × 10 ?4–1.8 × 10 ?3 mol/L. The K Q values decreased in the order Cr 3+ > Ga 3+ > Fe 3+ > Al 3+.

Yersiniabactin (Ybt) is a metal‐binding natural product that has been re‐purposed for water treatment. The early focus of this study was the characterization of metal binding breadth attributed to Ybt. Using LC‐MS analysis of water samples exposed to aqueous and surface‐localized Ybt, quantitative assessment of binding was completed with metals that included Pd 2+, Mg 2+, and Zn 2+. In total, Ybt showed affinity for 10 metals. Next, Ybt‐modified XAD‐16N resin (Ybt‐XAD) was utilized to quantify the affinity for metal removal, showing a rank order of Fe 3+ > Ga 3+ > Ni 2+ > Cu 2+ > Cr 2+≈Zn 2+ > Co 2+ > Pd 2+ > Mg 2+ > Al 3+, and in the applied treatment of wastewater from a local precious metal plating company, showing selective removal of nickel from the aqueous effluent. © 2017 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

In this work, we present evidence of Fe 2+ transport by rat heart mitochondrial F 1F o ATP synthase. Iron uptake by the vesicles containing the enzyme was concentration- and temperature-dependent, with an optimum temperature of 37 °C. Both ATP and ADP stimulated iron uptake in a concentration-dependent manner, whereas AMP, AMPPCP, and mADP did not. Inhibitors of the enzyme, oligomycin, and resveratrol similarly blocked iron transport. The iron uptake was confirmed by inhibition using specific antibodies against the α, β, and c subunits of the enzyme. Interestingly, slight transport of common divalent and trivalent metal ions such as Mg +2, Ca +2, Mn +2, Zn +2, Cu +2, Fe +3, and Al +3 was observed. Moreover, Cu +2, even in the nM range, inhibited iron uptake and attained maximum inhibition of approximately 56%. Inorganic phosphate (Pi) in the medium exerted an opposite effect depending on the type of adenosine nucleotide, which was suppressed with ATP, but enhanced with ADP. A similarly stimulating effect of ATP and ADP with an inverse effect of Pi suggests that the activity of ATPase and ATP synthase may be associated with iron uptake in a different manner, probably via antiport of H +. 相似文献

Pathological aggregates of tau protein are found in several neurodegenerative diseases termed ‘tauopathies’. Increasing evidence indicates that tau oligomer species rather than the large amyloid cytoplasmic inclusions relevant for histopathological diagnosis might be crucial for cellular damage and neurodegeneration. Trivalent metal ions and polyanionic structures like heparin or arachidonic acid have been shown to induce tau aggregation. However, little is known about early processes of tau aggregation. In this study, we applied fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) and scanning for intensely fluorescent targets (SIFT) to investigate oligomer formation of tau protein at nanomolar protein concentrations at the single-particle level. Our results indicate that the formation of distinct tau oligomers is induced by the trivalent metal ions Fe 3+ and Al 3+ and by organic solvents like DMSO, respectively. In contrast, bivalent metal ions (Cu 2+, Zn 2+, Mn 2+, Ca 2+, Mg 2+) had no effect. While DMSO-induced small tau oligomers are relatively stable in solution, dynamic remodeling can be initiated by non-ionic detergents. Moreover Al 3+ induces rapid formation of a different oligomer species of larger size. Our results provide further insights into early tau oligomerization and aggregation dynamics. 相似文献

Novel phenanthroline Schiff base fluorescent sensors L1 , L2 , and D1 were designed and synthesized. The sensing abilities of the compounds in the presence of metal cations (Li +, Na +, K +, Ag +, Mg 2+, Ba 2+, Ca 2+, Mn 2+, Pb 2+, Hg 2+, Ni 2+, Zn 2+, Cd 2+, Co 2+, Cu 2+, Cr 3+, Fe 3+, Fe 2+, Al 3+, and Eu 3+) were studied by UV‐vis and fluorescent spectroscopy. The compounds L1 , L2 , and D1 could act as Eu 3+ ion turn‐off fluorescent sensors based on ligand‐to‐metal binding mechanism in DMSO‐H 2O solution (v/v = 1:1, 10 mM Tris, pH = 7.4). Additionally, the L1 –Eu 3+ and D1 –Eu 3+ complexes could be applied as turn‐on enantioselective sensors sensing of malate anion isomers with color changes. Furthermore, biological experiments using living PC‐12 cells demonstrated that L1 and D1 had excellent membrane permeability and could be used as effective fluorescent sensors for detecting Eu 3+ and malate anion in living cells. 相似文献

P2X 2 purinoceptors are cation-selective channels activated by ATP and its analogues. Using single channel measurements we studied
the channel's selectivity for the alkali metal ions and organic monovalent cations NMDG +, Tris +, TMA +, and TEA +. The selectivity sequence for currents carried by alkali metal ions is: K + > Rb + > Cs + > Na + > Li +, which is Eisenman sequence IV. This is different from the mobility sequence of the ions in free solution suggesting there is weak interaction
between the ions and the channel interior. The relative conductance for alkali ions increases linearly in relation to the
Stokes radius. The organic ions NMDG +, Tris +, TMA + and TEA + were virtually impermeant. The divalent ions (Mn 2+, Mg 2+, Ca 2+ and Ba 2+) induced a fast block visible as a reduction in amplitude of the unitary currents. Using a single-site binding model, the
divalent ions exhibited an equilibrium affinity sequence of Mn 2+ > Mg 2+ > Ca 2+ > Ba 2+.

Magnesium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase has been purified from sheep kidney medulla plasma membranes. The purification, which is based on treatment of a kidney plasma membrane fraction with 0.5% digitonin in 3 mm MgCl 2, effectively separates the Mg 2+-ATPase from (Na + + K +)-ATPase present in the same tissue and yields the Mg 2+-ATPase in soluble form. The purified enzyme is activated by a variety of divalent cations and trivalent cations, including Mg 2+, Mn 2+, Ca 2+, Co 2+, Fe 2+, Zn 2+, Eu 3+, Gd 3+, and VO 2+. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the purified enzyme shows two bands with Rf values corresponding to molecular weights of 150,000 and 77,000. The larger peptide is phosphorylated by [γ- 32P]ATP, suggesting that this peptide may contain the active site of the Mg 2+-ATPase. The Mg 2+-ATPase activity is unaffected by the specific (Na + + K +)-ATPase inhibitor ouabain. 相似文献

Complexes formed by reduced glutathione (GSH) with metal cations (Cr 2+, Mn 2+,Fe 2+,Co 2+,Ni 2+,Cu 2+,Zn 2+,Cd 2+,Hg 2+) were systematically investigated by the density functional theory (DFT). The results showed that the interactions of the metal cations with GSH resulted in nine different stable complexes and many factors had an effect on the binding energy. Generally, for the same period of metal ions, the binding energies ranked in the order of Cu 2+>Ni 2+>Co 2+>Fe 2+>Cr 2+>Zn 2+>Mn 2+; and for the same group of metal ions, the general trend of binding energies was Zn 2+>Hg 2+>Cd 2+. Moreover, the amounts of charge transferred from S or N to transition metal cations are greater than that of O atoms. For Fe 2+,Co 2+,Ni 2+,Cu 2+,Zn 2+,Cd 2+ and Hg 2+ complexes, the values of the Wiberg bond indices (WBIs) of M-S (M denotes metal cations) were larger than that of M-N and M-O; for Cr 2+ complexes, most of the WBIs of M-O in complexes were higher than that of M-S and M-N. Furthermore, the changes in the electron configuration of the metal cations before and after chelate reaction revealed that Cu 2+, Ni 2+,Co 2+ and Hg 2+ had obvious tendencies to be reduced to Cu +,Ni +,Co + and Hg + during the coordination process. 相似文献

In this work, optimizing trace element composition was attempted as a primary strategy to improve surfactin production from Bacillus subtilis ATCC 21332. Statistical experimental design (Taguchi method) was applied for the purpose of identifying optimal trace element composition in the medium. Of the five trace elements examined, Mg 2+, K +, Mn 2+, and Fe 2+ were found to be more significant factors affecting surfactin production by the B. subtilis strain. In the absence of Mg 2+ or K +, surfactin yield decreased to 0.4 g/l, which was only 25% of the value obtained from the control run. When Mn 2+ and Fe 2+ were both absent, the production yield also dropped to ca. 0.6 g/l, approximately one-third of the control value. However, when only one of the two metal ions (Fe 2+ or Mn 2+) was missing, the B. subtilis ATCC 21332 strain was able to remain over 80% of original surfactin productivity, suggesting that some interactive correlations among the selected metal ions may involve. Taguchi method was thus applied to reveal the interactive effects of Mg 2+, K +, Mn 2+, Fe 2+ on surfactin production. The results show that interaction of Mg 2+ and K + reached significant level. By further optimizing Mg 2+ and K + concentrations in the medium, the surfactin production was boosted to 3.34 g/l, which nearly doubled the yield obtained from the original control. 相似文献

In the present work, a novel 5‐methyl‐thiophene‐carbaldehyde‐functionalized rhodamine 6G Schiff base (RA) was designed and easily prepared as an Al 3+ fluorescent and colorimetric probe, which could selectively and sensitively detect Al 3+ by showing enhanced fluorescence emission. Meanwhile distinct color variation from colorless to pink also provided ‘naked eye’ detection of Al 3+, due to the ring spirolactam opening of the rhodamine derivative. Other metal ions (including K +, Mg 2+, Na +, Ba 2+, Mn 2+, Cd 2+, Fe 2+, Ni 2+, Pb 2+, Zn 2+, Hg 2+, Co 2+, Li +, Sr 2+ and Cu 2+) could only induce limited interference. The detection limit of the fluorescent probe was estimated to be 4.17 × 10 ?6 M, the binding constant of the RA–Al 3+ complex was 1.4 × 10 6 M ?1. Moreover, this fluorescent probe RA possessed high reversibility. As aluminum is a ubiquitous metal in nature and plays vital roles in many biological processes, this chemosensor could be explored for biological study applications.

Most of the fine root tips of boreal and temperate forests are colonized by ectomycorrhizal fungi. Thus ectomycorrhizal (ECM)
symbiosis is an important factor in supplying trees with water and a wide range of nutrients. ECM are frequently patchily
distributed and often form dense systems in small areas. One of the reasons for this uneven distribution might be a heterogeneous
and patchy distribution of nutrients. The present study compares the occurrence of ECM of Cortinarius obtusus, Lactarius decipiens, L. theiogalus, and Russula ochroleuca and soil nutrient concentrations at a micro-scale (1 cm 2) in the O F layer of a pure Norway spruce stand. In addition to the macronutrients K +, Mg 2+, Ca 2+, NO 3
−, NH 4
+, the concentrations of Na +, Fe 3++Mn 2+, Al 3+, Cl −, SO 4
2− are studied, as well as pH. Whereas Russula ochroleuca and Lactarius decipiens did not reveal any significant correlation with any of the tested nutrients or pH, the occurrence of L. theiogalus was significantly (p < 5 %) positively correlated with NH 4
+, K +, Na +, Mg 2+, Fe 3++Mn 2+, and pH. Cortinarius obtusus was positively correlated at the same significance level only with NH 4
+ and Mg 2+. 相似文献

Calcium appears to be an essential participant in axon excitation processes. Many other polyvalent metal ions have calcium-like actions on axons. We have used the voltage-clamped lobster giant axon to test the effect of several of these cations on the position of the peak initial (sodium) and steady-state (potassium) conductance vs. voltage curves on the voltage axis as well as on the rate parameters for excitation processes. Among the alkaline earth metals, Mg +2 is a very poor substitute for Ca +2, while Ba +2 behaves like "high calcium" when substituted for Ca +2 on a mole-for-mole basis. The transition metal ions, Ni +2, Co +2, and Cd +2 also act like high calcium when substituted mole-for-mole. Among the trivalent ions, La +3 is a very effective Ca +2 replacement. Al +3 and Fe +3 are extremely active and seem to have some similar effects. Al +3 is effective at concentrations as low as 10 -5
M. The data suggest that many of these ions may interact with the same cation-binding sites on the axon membrane, and that the relative effects on the membrane conductance and rate parameters depend on the relative binding constants of the ions. The total amount of Na + transferred during a large depolarizing transient is nearly independent of the kind or amount of polyvalent ion applied. 相似文献

This paper reports the synthesis of azomethine-modified gold nanoparticles with azomethine (azomethine-AuNPs) in aqueous media, which were characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), dynamic light scattering (DLS), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The azomethine-AuNPs were employed as colorimetric for Cr3+ and Co2+ ions at pH 6.2–7.5 and 8.1–9.1, at room temperature in aqueous solution. In the presence of Cr3+ and Co2+, the azomethine-AuNPs induce aggregation of the nanoparticles. Upon aggregation, the surface plasmon absorption band red-shifts so that the nanoparticle solution appears a blue color. The sensitivity of azomethine-AuNPs towards other metal ions, Mg2+, Mn2+, Cr6+, Na+, Ni2+, Ag+, Al3+, Ca2+, Cd2+, Cu2+, Fe2+, Fe3+, Hg2+, Cd2+, K+, Co3+, Ni2+, Pb2+, and Zn2+ are negligible. This highly selective sensor allows a direct quantitative assay of Co2+ and Cr3+ with colorimetric detection limits of 83.22 and 108 nM, respectively. 相似文献

Tb 3+, a fluorescent trivalent cation with physicochemical properties similar to Ca 2+, binds to peripheral nerve membrane vesicles prepared from the walking leg nerve bundle of the lobster ( Homarus americanus). Saturable binding is measured for at least two classes of binding site. Bound Tb 3+ can be displaced by other cations in the order: Ca 2+ > Mg 2+ = Zn 2+ > NH 4+. The binding of Tb 3+ to the lower affinity site ( KD(app) = 6.0 μM) is inhibitable by Na +, Mg 2+ and Ca 2+, whereas the higher affinity site ( KD(app) = 2.2 μM) is only sensitive to Ca 2+. Using this spectral probe the role of Ca 2+ in peripheral nerve membrane function can be investigated. 相似文献

The binding properties of an artificial receptor towards a series of cations including Li +, Na +, K +, Mg 2+, Ca 2+, Ba 2+, Fe 2+ and Al 3+ in acetonitrile are described. The receptor comprises a photo-responsive pyrene unit connected via a short spacer to a 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine metal ion binding site. Interaction of cations with the receptor was monitored by changes in absorption profile and the association constants calculated for 1:1 and 1:2 cation:ligand binding fall within the range log β = 3-12. The receptor is highly fluorescent and quenching of the emission is observed upon cation binding. The potassium picrate transport properties of the membrane-bound receptor are also described. This receptor when immobilised in a polymer support, which separates two aqueous solutions, has been shown to transport potassium ions in the dark with a flux rate of 1.5 × 10 8 mol/s m 2. In contrast, when the membrane-bound receptor is selectively illuminated with light ( λ > 400 nm), the flux increases to 2.0 × 10 8 mol/s m 2. The transport efficiency depends on the nature of the trap used in the receiver phase. 相似文献

Herein, a boronic acid-based sensor was reported selectively to recognize Pd 2+ ion. The fluorescence intensity increased 36-fold after sensor binding with 2.47 × 10 −5 M of Pd 2+ ion. It was carried out in the 99% aqueous solution for binding tests, indicating sensor having good water solubility. In addition, it is discernible that Pd 2+ ion turned on the blue fluorescence of sensor under a UV–lamp (365 nm), while other ions (Ag +, Al 3+, Ba 2+, Ca 2+, Cr 2+, Cd 2+, Co 2+, Cs 2+, Cu 2+, Fe 2+, Fe 3+, K +, Li +, Mg 2+, Mn 2+, Na +, Ni 2+ and Zn 2+) did not show the similar change. Furthermore, sensor has a low limit of detection (38 nM) and high selectivity, which exhibits the potential for the development of Pd 2+ recognition in practical environments. 相似文献

Heparin is a major prophylactic and treatment agent for thrombosis. Structurally, this anticoagulant is a polydisperse, highly
negatively charged polysaccharide mixture that contains a variable density of sulfate group substituents per molecule. Previous
study has shown that heparin molecules have a high affinity for a wide range of metal ions with varying oxidation states.
However, reports in literature on binding of heparin to metals have investigated only a small sampling of heparin–metal ion
interactions. Since interaction of heparin with fluid phase and cell surface macromolecules in vivo is dependent on the heparin
structure when bound in a metal ion complex, a survey of the physical parameters for heparin binding to metals is imperative.
Atomic absorption and spectrophotometry experiments were performed for metal quantification, and in this study, the relative
values for affinity constants and number of binding sites for heparin binding to several alkaline, alkaline earth, main group,
and transition metals in their most common oxidation states are reported. We found an overall trend for heparin–metal affinity
to be Mn 2+ > Cu 2+ > Ca 2+ > Zn 2+ > Co 2+ > Na + > Mg 2+ > Fe 3+ > Ni 2+ > Al 3+> Sr 2+, with the trend in N

We are developing budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, as a genetic system for the study of tolerance to the trivalent aluminum cation (Al 3+). We have isolated eight mutants that are more sensitive to Al 3+ than the wild type. Each mutant represented a different complementation group. A number of the mutants were pleiotropic,
and showed defects in other stress responses, changes in tolerance to other metal cations, or abnormal morphology. Two mutants
also showed increased dependence on supplemental Mg 2+ and Ca 2+. One mutant with a relatively specific sensitivity to Al 3+ was chosen for molecular complementation. Normal Al 3+ tolerance was restored by expression of the MAP kinase gene SLT2. Strains carrying deletions of the SLT2 gene, or of the gene for the corresponding MAP kinase–kinase SLK1, showed sensitivity to Al 3+. These results indicate that the SLT2 MAP kinase signal transduction pathway is required for yeast to sense and respond to Al 3+ stress.

By combining two functions of alginate gel and activated carbon, an activated carbon-containing alginate bead (AC-AB) adsorbent was developed and successfully used to simultaneously remove heavy metal ions and toxic organics. Quantitative analysis showed that almost all of the adsorption of toxic organics, such as p-toluic acid, is caused by the activated carbon in the AC-AB adsorbent, whereas the alginate component has a major role in the removal of heavy metals. A 50-L solution containing eight heavy metals (Pb 2+, Mn 2+, Cd 2+, Cu 2+, Zn 2+, Fe 2+, Al 3+ and Hg 2+) and four mineral ions was run continuously through a filter cartridge packed with 160 g of the AC-AB adsorbent. The adsorbent showed a high capacity to remove heavy metals completely from the water, while allowing essential minerals, such as K +, Na +, Mg 2+ and Ca 2+, to pass through the filter. The adsorbent could be regenerated using eluents, such as HNO 3, and reused repeatedly without considerable loss of its metal uptake capacity through 10 subsequent cycles of adsorption and desorption. With its high capacity and high selectivity for toxic heavy metals, the AC-AB adsorbent has enormous potential for application in drinking water treatment technologies. 相似文献
