Abstract:
This work aims at developing a novel hyaluronic acid (HA) production method using magnetic nanoparticles (NPs). In a separate process, HA was produced with the addition of the amino acids (AA) as bio-additives. Regarding the NPs additives, the results showed that the highest dry weight of the produced HA was 0.264 g/l with the addition of 20 mg/l of Fe3O4 NPs. Concerning the AA additives, the results showed that the highest dry weight of the produced HA was 0.079 g/l with the addition of 0.26 g/l of glutamic acid (GA) compared to the control produced 0.065 g/l. These results led to further develop a novel HA production method which is preparing the Fe3O4 NPs using GA as stabilizer, where the results showed that dry weight of the produced HA was 0.435 g/l with the addition of 20 mg/l of Fe3O4-GA NPs.

Ions as Acids and Bases
Salts are ionic compounds composed of cations and anions, either of which may be capable of undergoing an acid or base ionization reaction with water. Aqueous salt solutions, therefore, may be acidic, basic, or neutral, depending on the relative acid-base strengths of the salt’s constituent ions. For example, dissolving the ammonium chloride in water results in its dissociation, as described by the equation:
Lewis Acids and Bases
A coordinate covalent bond (or dative bond) occurs when one of the atoms in the bond provides both bonding electrons. For example, a coordinate covalent bond occurs when a water molecule combines with a hydrogen ion to form a hydronium ion. A coordinate covalent bond also results when...
Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
