Also Helps Nerve Damage[edit]

Deferoxamine also helps recovery from nerve damage. I wish I had time to add the study to this article, but it can be found on the internet. P)erhaps a less busy person can help to add it into the main article.

Deferoxamine used to recover rare earth mineral from sea floor[edit]

In a study, published last week in the journal Applied Geochemistry, the scientists suggest rare earth metals could be mined from the solid nodes of iron and manganese found strewn across much of the deep ocean floor.

These nodules, called ferromanganese deposits, build slowly over time as dissolved iron and manganese in seawater attaches to seafloor sediments.

Using the solvent desferrioxamine-B — a key ingredient of the method they have developed—these elements could be easily extracted.

The diluter binds more strongly to some metals than others and when applied to ferromanganese nodes, effectively and efficiently extracts rare earth metals, leaving other metals behind in the nodules.

SMILES[edit]

When I import the SMILES in Avogadro the carboxyl groups are replaced by hydroxyl groups. Any suggestions? Simon de Danser (talk) 06:47, 2 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
