STM images showed an uneven and loose distribution of the surface of the cell.In comparison with the untreated cancer cells,there was an evident decrease in the content of membrane proteins and nuclear DNA in Et_2SnCl_2phen treated cells.展开更多

The crystal belongs to monoclinic, space group C2/c, with a = 2.5081(17), b = 1.0089(7), c = 2.0909(14) nm, β = 94.267(8)°, V= 5.276(6) nm^3, Z = 4, De= 1.734 g/cm^3,μ(MoKa) = 21.55 cm^-1, F(000) = 2704, R = 0.0398 and Rw = 0.1024. According to structural analysis, the tin atom adopts a distorted five-coordinate trigonal bipyramidal geometry, and the ladder-like structure is shaped by one planar four-membered Sn2O2 ring together with two planar four-membered Sn2OCl rings.展开更多

The paper has given an account of and the reasons for the widespread distribution of Tributyltin (TBT) in northern lakes. The percentage of TBT ranged from 4% - 100% OTC revealing recent inputs of TBT. The highest average of TBT (2.84 μg/g Sn dry wt) was measured in lake Edku. Dibutyltin (DBT) was observed at most sampled sites. Relatively higher abundance of DBT was observed in sediments of EL-Burullus (0.69 μg/g Sn dry wt). One of most significant findings to emerge from this study is the absence of any strong and significant correlation between TBT and DBT in sediments from five northern lakes. The absence of such correlation might give a clear evidence that both compounds did not come from the same source. The observed OTC levels indicate some highly localized areas of contamination which are severe enough to cause harmful effects on marine flora and fauna. Except for El-Burllus, Triphenyltin (TPhT) was not measured in sediments of most stations. TPhT was the predominant species in El-Burullus, which indicate a source of pollution mostly originated from industrial and agricultural waste water discharge, organic wastes, commercial fertilizers, chemical wastes and pesticides. The percentages of OTC to total tin ranged from 1% to 35%. El-Brullus, Edku and El-Bardaweel exhibited the highest percentages. As a result of lack of enforcement on the control of OTC, the study has thrown up many questions need further detailed environmental assessment of OTC.展开更多
