SOUKA+, W. SANAD and A.A. ABT)EL-RASSOUL ABSTRACT Neutron activation analysis of u collection of urinary calculi has been undertaken,, Search for silver, selenium, zinc and cobalt -was carried out. Cobalt presented a measurable concentration in all the investigated calculi. The cobult content in oxalate stones (around 1200+93 ppn>)> was found to be approximately five times its value in phosphate stones (around 200+21 ppm). The cobalt content in the examined calcium oxalate- triple phosphate mixed calculi lies betireen both concentration levels. Clinical pathology Laboratory Sidnawy Health Ensurance Hospital, Cairo. IflEHODUCTlOfi Recently, several investigatore have shown that a defi­ nite relationship exists between the concentration level of several trace elements in human body and certain diseases. The determination of trace eiemenos is further considered as a helpful tool to clarify many physioiogical processes. In this connection, activation analysis offers considerable pote­ ntialities relevant to both reliability and high detection sensitivity of various elements. Trace analysis of urine, was one of the subjects treated by neutron activation analysis. Determination of Ha, G.l,' Al, Br, I, Au, Mn, Sr, as well as radioactive deposits and several toxic elements was made with, great precision^ K xuie^ * , has determined the detection limits for 72 elements in'urine, these limits were in some cases as low as 0,000^ ppm.• Urinary calculi resulting from disorders in the urinary system and formed in any part of the urinary tract, have been classified by biochemists into simple calculi and mixed cal­ culi^'* '. In general, these stones are mostly composed of substances normally excreted in the urine, together with a certain amount of protein material. On rare occasions, for­ eign bodies may be found and may form the nucleus of a stone. Substances found in calculi include : uric acid, urates, cal­ cium oxalate, alkaline earth phosphates (Ua and-MgJ, triple phosphate (.magnesium ammonium phosphate.), calcium carbonate, cystine, and xanthine^"''. It is unusual to find a stone com­ posed of only one urinary constituent-, though it is often that one of the substances present is- in marked preponderance. .Procedures for the determination of macro constituents in uri­ nary calculi have been well established^'"*"'. No attempts, apart from the study reported by herring et al. , have been undertaken'to determine trace elements in urinary stones. _ o „ In a radiological surveillance of inorganic urinary calculi Herring et al. , indicated "that urolithiasis patients con­ sume approximately three times the concentration of strontium jii the national diet data (.^r concentration was measured with reierence to Ga concentration;.

After a suitable cooling period (about 6 weeks.), each of the activated calculi was transferred to a fx^esh plastic vial and set for gamma pulse height analysis. The first step in the analysis, is to identify the com­ ponents in the gamma ray spectra o± the different calculi. This has been undertaken by tracing the gamma spectra of each calculus using a true coaxial Ge(Li) detector, 30 cnr intre- nsic volume^ "•', connected to a multichannel (512 channels) counting assembly, model E.D* 120o Standard gamma sources of Am241 (59.568 KeV), Co^7 (122.05 KeV and 136.406 KeV) and Gs *' (661o59 KeV) were used to calibrate the energy scale. The counting period was 10 minutes in all cases. The second step in the analysis, is to determine the amounts of the elements of interest in the different calculi. This is carried out by a comparison of the photopeak areas in the compound spectra of the calculi with those of the res­ pective irradiated monitoring standards, accounting for any differences in experimental conditions (cooling time and coun­ ting geometries). - 5 - HBSUI/TS AND DISCUSSION Tracing the gamma spectra of the irradiated calculi, in­ dicated that the neutron induced nuclides Ag (£•, = 260 d9 main X-energies 0.45, 0.68, 0.88 and 1.39 MeV), Se75 (T-^ 120 d, main X -energies 0.12, 0.14, 0.28 and 0.4C MeV;, and Zn65 (Ti/ = 24-5 dp /6 -enrgy 0.31 annih., 1.11 MeV) could not be qualitatively detected in the complex measurements carried, oirtr • On the other hand, Go proved to be pre­ sent in all calculi, as characterised by peak energies 1.17 fin Me? and 1.32 MeV. '-d© identity of Co was further evidenced. by giving an almost constant GE/ 1.17 J CE^ 1.33 ratio in. the spectral measurements of the different samples analyzed and that of the monitoring Co-standard (where: G,represents the net integral counts under respective photoelectric pealc)* An example of the produced spectra is given in. Fig. (1J>. From the fore-lined considerations, it is clear that no accurate estimates for Ag, Se and Zn, could be given. This is probably due to their absence or presence in concentrations beyond the detection limits under used experimental conditions. For the quantitative estimation of cobalt, the half area under the higher side of the photoelctric peak of the 1.^3 MeV line has been accurately measured, and compared with that of the irradiated cobalt standard. This eliminates the pos­ sible interference of contaminants that might exist at lower energies.

Generally speaking,, oxalate stones are formed in acidic urine, while phosphate stones are formed in alkaline urine„ The acidity of urine, however, could not explain the observed inarmed variation in cobalt concentration* On the other hand, the etiology of urinary calculi is by no means clear9 possible factors may bei the high concentration of urinary salts, var­ ious infections, deficiency in vitamin A, para thyroid tumor ana nephrocalcinosis* Unfortunately, no clinical interpreta­ tion could be set in the light of the available data, and further work is necessary to clarify this point.

This article is published with open access and licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. Abstract To overcome the limitations of currently available protectives and consolidants for carbonate stones (such as marble and limestone), in 2011 the use of calcium phosphate was proposed. The idea is forming calcium phosphates (ideally hydroxyapatite) as the reaction product between the substrate and an aqueous solution of a phosphate salt that the stone is treated with. In this paper, the studies aimed at identifying the best treatment conditions (in terms of nature and concentration of the phosphate precursor, solution pH, reaction time, ionic and organic additions) are first briefly summarized. Then, the efficacy of the phosphate treatment in protecting marble from dissolution in rain and restoring cohesion of weathered marble and limestone is discussed. Some recent studies on the use of the phosphate treatment on alternative substrates and some future steps for research on the topic are finally outlined. Keywords: Cultural heritage; Marble; Hydroxyapatite; Protection; Consolidation 1 Introduction improve mechanical properties, by providing a binding action between the stone grains. Organic products are A great part of cultural heritage objects (e.g. monuments, effective in improving mechanical properties, but again architectural decorations and statues) is made of carbonate they lack compatibility and durability.

H2O /CaSO4.H2O TSP: CaHPO4.2H2O SUMMARY CONCLUSIONS OF THE SIAR Category/Analogue Rationale The category consists of monoammonium phosphate (MAP; CAS No. 7722-76-1), diammonium phosphate (DAP; CAS No. 7783-28-0), ammonium polyphosphate (APP; CAS No. 68333-79-9), single superphosphate (SSP; CAS No. 8011-76-5), and triple superphosphate (TSP; CAS No. 65996-95-4). All members of the category are mainly or exclusively used as fertilizer and have one common functional group (phosphate) that equilibrates between several different ionic species - = = -3 [H3PO4, H2PO4 , HPO4 , HPO4 , or PO4 ] depending on the pH of the environment. Thus, chemical reactions for all compounds in this category are similar with the exception of the actual dissociation product, which forms calcium or ammonia along with common phosphate moieties. However, the presence of the ammonium ion will influence the observed toxicity and its data are used to conservatively represent the toxicity of the category members. Under typical environmental conditions, the phosphate would be present as monohydrogen = - - phosphate (HPO4 ) or dihydrogen phosphate (H2PO4 ) with the equilibrium favoring H2PO4 as the acidity of the environment increases. Under these conditions, the proportions of phosphoric acid -3 (H3PO4) and the phosphate anion (PO4 ) would be extremely low.

  • Prohibited and Restricted Chemical List
    School Emergency Response Plan and Management Guide Prohibited and Restricted Chemical List PROHIBITED AND RESTRICTED CHEMICAL LIST Introduction After incidents of laboratory chemical contamination at several schools, DCPS, The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and DC Fire and Emergency Management Services developed an aggressive program for chemical control to eliminate student and staff exposure to potential hazardous chemicals. Based upon this program, all principals are required to conduct a complete yearly inventory of all chemicals located at each school building to identify for the removal and disposal of any prohibited/banned chemicals. Prohibited chemicals are those that pose an inherent, immediate, and potentially life- threatening risk, injury, or impairment due to toxicity or other chemical properties to students, staff, or other occupants of the school. These chemicals are prohibited from use and/or storage at the school, and the school is prohibited from purchasing or accepting donations of such chemicals. Restricted chemicals are chemicals that are restricted by use and/or quantities. If restricted chemicals are present at the school, each storage location must be addressed in the school's written emergency plan. Also, plan maps must clearly denote the storage locations of these chemicals. Restricted chemicals—demonstration use only are a subclass in the Restricted chemicals list that are limited to instructor demonstration. Students may not participate in handling or preparation of restricted chemicals as part of a demonstration. If Restricted chemicals—demonstration use only are present at the school, each storage location must be addressed in the school's written emergency plan.

The idea is treating gy sum with an aqueous solution of diammonium hydrogen hos hate (DAP, (.H 4)2HPO 4) to form hydroxya atite (HAP, Ca 10 (PO 4)6(OH) 2), which has much lower solubility than gy sum. Tests carried out on gy sum aste sam les, manufactured to resemble historic stuccoes, showed that, after treatment with the DAP solution, a significant im rovement in mechanical ro erties was achieved and brushite (CaHPO 4ì2H 2O) was formed (alongside some other by- roducts, that can be removed by an additional oultice treatment). Even if brushite is more soluble than HAP, still its formation is ex ected to be beneficial for stuccoes conservation, as brushite is significantly less soluble than gy sum. Introduction Since antiquity, gy sum-based stuccoes have been frequently used to imitate recious white or colored marbles, when the use of real marbles was not ossible, because trans ort from faraway quarries was too costly a1,2b.

  • Dictionary of Explosives
    DICTIONARY OF EXPLOSIVES BY ARTHUR MARSHALL A .C .G j., F.I.C., F.C.S. CHEMICAL INSPECTOR INDIAN ORDNANCE DEPARTMENT PHILADELPHIA P. BLAKISTON’S SON & CO. 1012 WALNUT STREET 1920 Printed in Great Britain INTRODUCTION It is a generation since a dictionary of explosives has been published, and, in the meantime, many new explosives have been introduced. It is hoped, therefore, that this small volume, giving concise information about these special materials, may prove useful to those who have to deal with them. In Cundill and Thomson’s “ Dictionary of Explosives,” issued in 1895, there arc many entries of the names of inventors and of mixtures which had been proposed but have never been used commercially, nor are likely to be. As modem explosives were then in their infancy, it was no doubt wise to insert all the available information whether it appeared to be important or not; but now it seems to me better to restrict the scope of the dictionary so as to keep its size within moderate limits. Practically only explosives with special or proprietary names are therefore dealt with here. For information concerning chemical substances, such as the nitro-toluenes and other nitro-compounds, reference should be made to the text-books on explosives and chemistry. A few words may, however, be said here about the nitro- celluloses. These are made by treating cellulose with a mix­ ture of nitric and sulphuric acids, and then purifying the product by washing it thoroughly with hot water. The variety of cellulose most used for this purpose is cotton, and the product obtained from it is frequently called nitrocotton, three special varieties of which are collodion cotton, pyro- collodion and guncotton (q.
