low-cost grapefruit peel (agricultural waste) was used for removal of reactive blue19 dye fromaqueous solutions. the process was studied as a function of contact time, initial dye concentration andph. adsorption process was attained to the equilibrium within 45 min for initial dye concentrations of 50,75, and 100 mg l-1. an acidic medium was the optimum condition for adsorption of dye at roomte...

objective(s) in the last few years, serum procalcitonin has been proposed as an early marker of infections in neonates, with varying results. in this study, we aimed to investigate the value of procalcitonin, and c- reactive protein in establishing the diagnosis of neonatal sepsis. materials and methods blood samples were collected at admission from 69 neonates with suspected infection (admitte...

background: hemodialysis patients are at greater risk of cardiovascular disease. higher than expected cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in this population has been attributed to dislipidemia as well as inflammation. the causes of inflammation in hemodialysis patients are multifactorial. several markers were used for the detection of inflammatory reaction in patients with chronic renal dise...

the main theme to conduct present research work was to evaluate the effect of anaerobic granular sludge in degradation of two azo dyes. the study was evaluated in batch experiments where anaerobic and aerobic conditions were integrated by exposing anaerobic granular sludge to oxygen. under these conditions, the azo dyes were reduced, resulting in a temporal accumulation of aromatic amines. subs...
