Physicochemical Properties Used to Predict Cation Biosorption

7 PHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES USED TO PREDICT CATION BIOSORPTION 

Chen and Wang (2007) (labeled C W in Table 5.23) developed 3 QSARs to predict the of 10 cations to Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the QSAR developed with the covalent index (x r) was the most statistically significant (Table 5.23). Chen and Wang (2007) also developed 6 QSARs to predict the biosorption capacity of 8 cations and again the QSAR developed with X r was the most statistically significant (Table 5.23). Only the Chen and Wang (2007) QSAR based on X t and AN/AIP did not meet the level of significance as a = 0.05 (Table 5.23).
