Effects of respirable aerosols of sulfuric acid, ammonium sulfate, sodium sulfite, and ammonium persulfate on lungs of rats are reviewed. The literature regarding interactions between ozone or nitrogen dioxide and acidic aerosols (ammonium sulfate, sulfuric acid) is discussed. An unexpected interaction between nitrogen dioxide and sodium chloride aerosol is also discussed. An attempt is made to...

In this work, an Fe3O4 catalyst was synthetized in a single step via electrochemical synthesis. The used to evaluate the degradation of Ofloxacin (OFX) using heterogeneous advanced oxidation process with sodium persulfate (PS). PS activation successfully achieved thermal conventional heating directly and subsequently applied for OFX. kinetics were studied under different conditions, such as oxi...

The synthesis of orthoferrites the type La1−xCexFeO3+x/2, x = 0.00, 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, and 0.07, by applying a simple effective mechanochemical transformation from constituent oxides is presented. Physicochemical methods such as powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV–Vis spectroscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) adsorption were applied to gain information abo...

BACKGROUND Occupational contact dermatitis among hairdressers is frequent, owing to daily exposure to irritants and allergens. OBJECTIVES To identify sensitization to the most common allergens associated with the occupation of hairdressing. METHODS Patch test results of 399 hairdressers and 1995 matched controls with contact dermatitis, registered by the Danish Contact Dermatitis Group betw...

oxygen delignified kraft pulp from eucalyptus (e. urophylla × e. grandis) was catalytically pretreated in aerobic condition using ammonium persulfate in present of catalists like cupric acetate and/or cobalt acetate in acetic acid-water solution, i. e. s2o82--cu2+, s2o82--co2+ and s2o82--(cu2++co2+). final bleached pulp after pretreatment with the three catalytic systems showed higher delignifi...

INTRODUCTION Since persulfate salts are an important cause of occupational asthma (OA), we aimed to study the persistence of respiratory symptoms after a single exposure to ammonium persulfate (AP) in AP-sensitized mice. MATERIAL AND METHODS BALB/c mice received dermal applications of AP or dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) on days 1 and 8. On day 15, they received a single nasal instillation of AP or...

To improve the photo-catalytic degradation of salicylic acid, we reported the fabrication of ordered TiO2 nanotube arrays by a simple and effective two-step anodization method and then these TiO2 nanotubes were treated in a methanol solution under UV light irradiation. The TiO2 nanotubes prepared in the two-step anodization process showed better photo-catalytic activity than those prepared in o...
