We studied the relationship between macro-algae Chara (Stoneworts) calcite (CaCO(3)) encrustation and the speciation of cadmium (Cd) accumulated by the plant. Results showed that 17% of the total Cd (0.3mgkg(-1)) accumulated by Chara fibrosa exposed to 1 microg Cd L(-1)

In this article, we have demonstrated one-step solid-phase transformation from high-quality cadmium carbonate microcrystals into highly nanoporous cadmium oxide. The high crystal quality of cadmium carbonate is critical for the successful fabrication of porous nanoarchitectures with predetermined morphology and well-controlled

X-ray studies performed during the growth of CdCO(3) and MnCO(3) crystals from supersaturated aqueous solutions, at fatty acid monolayer templates, reveal that the nucleates are nearly three-dimensional powders below a threshold supersaturation. However, at higher supersaturations, the crystals are preferentially

The objective of the present study was to analyze the effect of chronic cadmium (Cd) exposure at two alkalinity levels (63 and 92 mg l(-1) CaCO(3)) on the antipredatory behavior of juvenile silver catfish (Rhamdia quelen) exposed to conspecific skin
In the high-responder A/J mice a lower percentage of peritoneal macrophages express Fc receptors and accordingly phagocytize less intensely via these receptors than the macrophages of the low-IgG-responder C57BL/10ScSn strain. Similarly, the phagocytosis mediated by the receptors for foreign substances
