Background and purpose: Textile industries are among the most polluting industries regarding the volume and the complexity of treatment of its effluents discharge. This study investigated the efficiency of electrocoagulation process using aluminum electrodes in basic red 18 dye removal from aqueous solutions. Materials and Methods: This study was performed in a bipolar batch reactor with ...

A bacterial strain SVM1 with remarkable ability to decolorization textile dye Reactive Red ME4BL was isolated from the activated sludge soil collected from a common effluent treatment plant (CETP) in Perunduari, Erode district Tamil Nadu. Different parameters such as temperature and pH were optimized for decolorization of Red ME4BL by using isolated bacteria. The most promising bacterial isolat...

In this study, based on colony morphology characteristics, a total of 19 fungal endophytes were isolated from root of Calotropis Procera a traditional Indian medicinal plant. All fungal isolates were screened for their dye degradation ability. The dyes used as test dyes were Rose Bengal (RB), azo dye Methyl Red (MR), Coomassie Brilliant Blue (CBB) and Methylene Blue (MB) and the concentration o...

The removal kinetics and mechanism of alizarin red-s dye, adsorptions on coconut shell activated carbon [CSAC] is studied. The use of low cost ecofriendly adsorbent has been investigated as an ideal alternative to the current expensive methods of removing the dye from aqueous solution. The adsorption removal of Alizarin Red-S dye on CSAC was investigated using batch adsorption technique. The di...

the decolorization of maxilon-red dye by kissiris immobilized phanerochaete chrysosporium in the trickle-bed reactor (tbr) using the basal nitrogen-limited growth medium was studied. the influence of the superficial liquid velocity (slv) on the decolorizing ability of the fungus was examined at four slvs (cm sec-1): 0.05, 0.075, 0.1, and 0.15. maximum level of the decolorizing activity was abou...

allura red (ar) is a widely used colorant in food industry, but there is debate on its potential security risk. in this study, in vitro inhibitory properties of the dye against carbonic anhydrase (ca) were evaluated. the esterase activity of purified ca decreased in the presence of ar, in a dose-dependent manner. regarding literature review and observed results, this preliminary study may provi...

1. The renal excretion of phenol red and other phenolsulphophthalein dyes (bromophenol blue and bromothymol blue) was studied in clearance experiments on anaesthetized rabbits. 2. Net tubular excretion of phenol red reached a maximal value of 8 mumole/min at a plasma concentration of ultrafiltrable dye of about 0.1 mM and was decreased at higher plasma concentrations. Decreases in net tubular e...

Dye-containing wastewater generated from textile industries is a major source of environmental pollution. Azo dyes, which are the largest group of coloring agents, are widely used in industries.This research investigated the photocatalytic decolorization and degradation of an azo dye Reactive Red 198 (RR198) in aqueous solution with TiO2-P25 (Degussa) as photocatalyst in slurry form using UV li...

Neutral lipid droplets (LDs) are dynamic lipid storage organelles found in all eukaryotic cells from yeast to mammals and higher plants. LDs are important to many physiological processes that include basic cellular maintenance, metabolism, and diverse medical pathologies. LD accumulation has been studied extensively by a range of methods, but particularly by microscopy with several fluorescent ...
