The decolourisation of the reactive Congo red dye from synthetic wastewater was studied using ElectroCoagulation (EC) technique. In an effort to increase removal efficiency, effects operating parameters including flow, inter electrode distance, conductivity, voltage, and Hydraulic Detention Time (HDT) were investigated. An electrochemical cell initially created with aluminum cathode anode. Foll...

The dimer of bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A (RNase A) discovered by Crestfield, Stein, and Moore in 1962 has been crystallized and its structure determined and refined to a 2.1-A resolution. The dimer is 3D domain-swapped. The N-terminal helix (residues 1-15) of each subunit is swapped into the major domain (residues 23-124) of the other subunit. The dimer of bull seminal ribonuclease (BS-RNa...

The present study evaluated the removal efficiency of two dyes, Congo red (CR) and malachite green (MG), using either fresh or dry fungal biomass species Trichoderma (T. virens T. viride) activated carbon. After 24 h, CR obtained with was higher than that For MG dye, average carbon (99%) those viride virens. Experimental results for showed a good correlation Langmuir isotherms. adsorption rates...

mesoporous tio2 has been prepared using a nonionic block copolymer (pluronic p-123) as structure-directing agent with sol-gel method. characterization of the product was carried out by means of x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem), thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimetry (tg-dsc), nitrogen sorption isotherms, and uv-vis absorption spectroscopy. these analyses s...

CONTEXT Congo red is the essential histologic stain for demonstrating the presence of amyloidosis in fixed tissues. To the best of my knowledge, nothing has been written about why the stain is named "Congo." OBJECTIVE To understand the etymology and history of the Congo red histologic stain. DESIGN Primary sources were consulted extensively, including 19th-century corporate documents, newsp...

TiO2 /Fe3O4 nanocomposites with various TiO2:Fe3O4 ratios were synthesized by an ultrasonic-assisted deposition-precipitation method and their UV-light decolorization of Congo dye and magnetic separation were investigated. The nanocomposite samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), surface area analayzer (BET) and Fourier transform infrare...
