How is silicic acid transported in plants? [PDF]
, 2020 Plants accumulate silicon in their tissues as amorphous silica. The form of silicon taken up by plants is silicic acid, a neutral molecule that passes through membrane channels with water.

Selective removal of silicic acid by a gallic-acid modified resin
Journal of Water Reuse and Desalination, 2019 To remove silicic acid from aqueous solutions, a novel gallic acid-type resin (GA-type resin) was prepared by a grafting method. The effects of the adsorption capacity, pH and presence of NaCl, NaNO3, Na2SO4, and NaCO3 salts on the silicic acid removal ...

Direct evidence of the molecular basis for biological silicon transport
Nature Communications, 2016 Diatoms sheath themselves in a self-made casing of silica, which requires the function of silicic acid transporters. Here, the authors identify versions of these transporters that are experimentally tractable, and develop a fluorescence method to study ...
