The aim of the current study was to evaluate the transport system in EMT-6 cell for the uptake of the methylmercury(MeHg). Several inhibitors ere used to test used to test which potential transport system might be involoved in MeHg uptake. Probenecid was used to test the organic transport system, valinomycin for testing the effect of the membrane potential, cytochalasin B for testing the facilitated diffusive D-glucose transport system and colchicine for testing the microtubule system. Ouabain for evaluating active transport system, 4',4-diisothiocyano-2',2-stilbenedisulfonic acid(DIDS) the Cl- ion transport system and verapamil for the $Ca^{2+}$ transprot system. Significantly, MeHg decreased the synthesis of nitric oxcide(NO) and intracellular ATP in ENT-6 cells. In the condition of ouabain containing with MeHg decreased the production of NO and intracelluar ATP. In the treatment of inhibitors, ouabain showed protective effect against cytotoxicity of MeHg but ather inhibitors not showed protective effects. The protective effects of ouabain against the cytotoxicity of MeHg deoended on the concentration of added ouabain to the culture medium for MET-6 cells. These result showed that the uptake of MeHg might be involved in the active transport system. Active transports system seems to share similarities with the transport systems for the uptake of MeHg when using MeHg and MeHg-glutathione complex.x.

Electrical characteristics of field-effect thin film transistors (TFTs) with p-channels of CdTe/CdHgTe core-shell nanocrystals are investigated in this paper. For the fabrication of bottom- and top-gate TFTs, CdTe/CrHgTe nanocrystals synthesized by colloidal method are first dispersed on oxidized p+ Si substrates by spin-coating, the dispersed nanoparticles are sintered at $150^{\circ}C$ to form the channels for the TFTs, and $Al_{2}O_{3}$ layers are deposited on the channels. A representative bottom-gate field-effect TFT with a bottom-gate $SiO_2$ layer exhibits a mobility of $0.21cm^2$/ Vs and an Ion/Ioff ratio of $1.5{\times}10^2$ and a representative top-gate field-effect TFT with a top-gate $Al_{2}O_{3}$ layer provides a field-effect mobility of $0.026cm^2$/ Vs and an Ion/Ioff ratio of $2.5{\times}10^2$. $Al_{2}O_{3}$ was deposited for passivation of CdTe/CdHgTe core-shell nanocrystal layer, resulting in enhanced hole mobility, Ior/Ioff ratio by 0.25, $3{\times}10^3$, respectively. The CdTe/CdHgTe nanocrystal-based TFTs with bottom- and top gate geometries are compared in this paper.

Adsorption equilibrium and kinetic behavior of two toxic heavy metals hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] and mercury [Hg(II)] on mustard oil cake (MOC) was studied. Isotherm of total chromium was of concave type (S1 type) suggesting cooperative adsorption. Total chromium adsorption followed BET isotherm model. Isotherm of Hg(II) was of L3 type with monolayer followed by multilayer formation due to blockage of pores of MOC at lower concentration of Hg(II). Combined BET-Langmuir and BET-Freundlich models were appropriate to predict Hg(II) adsorption data on MOC. Boyd's model confirmed that external mass transfer was rate limiting step for both total chromium and Hg(II) adsorptions with average diffusivity of $1.09{\times}10^{-16}$ and $0.97m^2/sec$, respectively. Desorption was more than 60% with Hg(II), but poor with chromium. The optimum pH for adsorptions of total chromium and Hg(II) were 2-3 and 5, respectively. At strong acidic pH, Cr(VI) was adsorbed by ion exchange mechanism and after adsorption reduced to Cr(III) and remained on MOC surface. Hg(II) removal was achieved by complexation of $HgCl_2$ with deprotonated amine ($-NH_2$) and carboxyl (COO-) groups of MOC.

A new phosphorescent cyclometalated heteroleptic iridium (III) complex with an ancillary ligand of 4-azacrownpicolinate was prepared and its metal ion selective phosphorescent chemosensing behavior was investigated. The new iridium (III) complex exhibits notable phosphorescence quenching for Hg2+ in aqueous 50% acetonitrile solution with respect to the selective phosphorescent detection of various metal ions including $Li^+,Na^+,K^+,Cs^+,Mg^{2+},Ca^{2+},Ba^{2+},Fe^{2+},Ni^{2+},Cu^{2+},Zn^{2+},Ag^+,Pb^{2+},Cd^{2+},Cr^{2+},Cr^{3+}$ and $Hg^{2+}$. The phosphorescence quenching for $Hg^{2+}$ increased linearly with increasing concentration of $Hg^{2+}$ in the range of $10{\mu}M-700{\mu}M$ even in the presence of other metal ions, except for $Cu^{2+}$. Consequently, the new iridium (III) complex has the potential to be utilized for the determination of parts per million levels of $Hg^{2+}$ in aqueous acetonitrile media.

Mercury is a toxic pollutants present in different types of industrial effluents and is responsible for environmental pollution. Removal of Hg(II) ions from synthetic wastewater was studied using the activated biocarbon produced from the leaves of Tridax procumbens (Asteraceae). The particle size of the biocarbon (BC) is in the range of $100-120{\mu}m$. The effects of initial metal ion concentration, pH, contact time, and amount of biocarbon on the biosorption process were studied at temperature of $28{\pm}2^{\circ}C$. Batch experimental studies showed that an equilibrium time of 160 min was required for the maximum removal of Hg(II) at the optimized biocarbon dose of 2.5 g per 100 mL of synthetic wastewater. The optimum pH required for maximum removal (96.5%) of Hg(II) ions was found to be 5.5. The biosorption of metal ions onto activated biocarbon surface is probably via an ion exchange mechanism. The biocarbon can be regenerated with minimum loss. Further, it can be reused without any chemical activation. The findings of the research suggested that, the biocarbon produced from cost effective renewable resources can be utilized for the treatment of industrial wastewater.

수질환경에서 구리이온을 검출하기 위하여 광섬유 센서의 구리 이온 감지 물질로 8-Hydroxyquinolin-2carboxaldehyde와 4-Aminoantipyrine으로 합성된 8-Hydroxyquinoline 합성유도체에 대해 광학적 반응 특성을 조사하였다. 실험은 광섬유를 이용한 측정시스템을 이용하여 수용액에 용해된 구리 이온의 농도에 대해 합성유도체에 의한 흡광도와 관계를 평가하기 위하여 수행되었다. 8-Hydroxyquinoline 합성유도체는 수질 환경에서 다양한 금속 이온들 중에서 구리 이온에 대해 노란색에서 붉은색으로 변화되는 높은 발색 현상을 나타냈으며 530 nm의 고유 흡광 파장을 보였다. 제작된 합성유도체의 Cu 이온에 대한 선택성을 평가하기 위하여 Hg 이온의 영향을 조사하였다. Cu와 Hg 이온의 다양한 농도 비 (Cu:Hg ratio 0.05부터 20까지)에서 흡광도를 측정한 결과, Cu 이온의 농도 증가에 따라 530nm에서 흡광도가 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 구리 이온의 고유 흡광 파장인 530 nm에서 합성 유도체에 의한 흡광도 세기는 구리 이온의 로그 농도에 선형으로 비례하였다. 따라서 8-Hydroxyquinoline합성유도체는 광섬유 센서의 구리 이온 감지 물질로 우수한 특성을 보임을 실험적으로 확인할 수 있었다.

Voltammetric analysis of mercury ions was developed using paste electrodes (PEs) with DNA and carbon nanotube mixed electrodes. The optimized analytical results of the cyclic voltammetry (CV) of the $1{\sim}14ng\;L^{-1}Hg(II)$ concentration and the square wave (SW) stripping voltammetry of the $1{\sim}12ng\;L^{-1}Hg(II)$ working range within an accumulation time of 400 seconds were obtained in 0.1 M $NH_4H_2PO_4$ electrolyte solutions of pH 4.0. For the relative standard deviations of the $1ng\;L^{-1}Hg(II)$, which were observed at 0.078% (n = 15) at the optimum conditions, the low detection limit (S/N) was pegged at $0.2ng\;L^{-1}(7.37{\times}10^{-13}M)$ for Hg(II). The results can be applied to assays in biological fish kidneys and wastewater samples.
