Industrial effluent containing heavy metals, on entering aquatic environment causes biochemical disturbances in the fish. The present study deals with the toxicity of Zinc as (ZnSO4), as a component of industrial waste and its effect on tissue glycogen and protein level at 24, 48, 72 & 96 hrs respectively .The estimated glycogen and protein concentration in the tissuesgills, liver, kidney, ovar...

Microbial contamination means that infectious agents are identified on objects in the hospital environment. This serious issue is most significant for healthcare organizations. Covering abiotic surfaces with a thin polymer film can be promising way to fight against microbial adhesion and colonization. acts as depot of an antibacterial substance. In this study, our aim was investigate antimicrob...

This study evaluated the impact of aged ZnO NPs on soil-plant systems compared to bulk and ZnSO4. Green pea beetroot were grown under greenhouse conditions in two agricultural soils which 20 mg Zn kg−1 225 had been applied 1 year before a previous crop. At high dose, differences soil extractable (CaCl2 diethylene triaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA)) observed between sources. Both applications ZnSO4...

Preparing sustainable and highly efficient biomass-based carbon materials (BBPM) as adsorbents remains a challenge for organic pollutant management. In this work, novel biobased material has been synthesized via facile, sustainable, different single-step pyrolysis chemical methods (KOH, ZnCl2, ZnSO4, MgCl2) using Norway spruce bark suitable precursor. The effects of each activator on the physic...

in order to investigate the effect of application methods of znso4 on qualitative, quantitative and correction of zinc deficiency in grapevine, an experiment was conducted in completely randomized block design with 10 treatments and 4 replications. treatments included control, trunk injection three levels 1.5, 3 and 5 g/l, spray in three levels 1.5, 3 and 5 g/l and soil application (soil drench...

Though most of the metallic ions are spermicidal in action, the present investigation emphasises the spermicidal activity of anions. Among the inorganic compounds screened at 4 concentrations (0.01%, 0.1%, 1% and 5%) halides are mainly spermicidal, except NaCl, KCl & CsCl which are spermiostatic; sulphates and nitrates are mainly spermiostatic except ZnSO4 at 1% concentration and above; CuSO4, ...

A novel surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based probe to capture heavy metal ion (Zn2+) by bovine serum albumin (BSA) using Si-nanowire (SiNW) arrays with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was developed. layer AgNPs deposited on the SiNW surface RF magnetron sputtering for enhancement of SERS signals. Using a high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM), observation reveals that A...
