mesoporous photocatalysts of ceo2/sba-15 are prepared by two methods of direct synthesis as solvent-usage and solvent-free methods. in solvent-usage method, ceo2/sba-15 is synthesized in acidic media. while, in solvent-free method, ceo2/sba-15, has been prepared through the novel path of directly grind cerium salt into the as-prepared samples of sba-15 occluded with template. this method enable...

noscopy showed diffuse mucosal edema through the entire colon, with multiple reddish erosions and contact bleeding (Fig. A). On colonoscopic biopsy, homogenous amyloid deposits were seen in the parenchyma and vessels (Fig. B, H&E, ×200), and Congo red staining for the amyloid, coupled with polarized light, demonstrated the characteristic apple-green birefringence (Fig. C, Congo red, ×400). Ches...

Methods Seventy-three patients with FMF and 39 patients with active systemic inflammation due to autoimmune or idiopathic inflammation were evaluated in our reference center for amyloidosis. Mutations in MEFV and the SAA-1 exon 3 variants were analyzed for their contribution to AA risk. Amyloidosis was detected in all cases by congo red staining of kidney or bowel biopsy specimens and AA was cl...

UNLABELLED INTRODUCTION : Microorganisms use various strategies for their survival in both the environment and in humans. Slime production by bacteria is one such mechanism by which microbes colonize on the indwelling prosthetic devices and form biofilms. Infections caused by such microorganisms are difficult to treat as the biofilm acts as a shield and protects microbes against antimicrobial a...

A synthesized MIL-101-NH 2 has been used as an adsorbent to analyze Congo red (CR), methyl orange (MO), and acid chrome blue K (AC) dye adsorption phenomena. This investigation, based on statistical physics treatment, applied the double layer model with two energies understand three samples, namely, -1, -2, -3, at T = 298 K. Modeling results indicated that occurred via a mixed orientation for C...

The effect of acid treatment on the adsorptive capacity a Brazilian palygorskite to remove crystal violet (CV) and congo red (CR) dyes was investigated. raw acid-treated by different HCl solutions (2, 4, 6 mol/L). modifications structure were investigated using X-ray diffraction, fluorescence, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, N2 adsorption/desorption, thermogravimetric differential ther...

ZnFe2O4 was fabricated by a simple solution-combustion method. The structural, optical and electronic properties are investigated by XRD, TEM, FESEM, UV-vis DRS, PL, FTIR and photocurrent measurements. The photocatalytic activity of the prepared material is studied with regard to the degradation of rhodamine B (Rh B) and Congo red under solar irradiation. The kinetic study showed that the mater...

An alternative method for detecting the production of slime by coagulase negative staphylococci was compared with the routinely used Christensen method on 124 isolates of coagulase negative staphylococci from carriage sites, blood cultures, and infected peritoneal dialysis fluids. The alternative method requires the use of a specially prepared solid medium--brain heart infusion broth, supplemen...

Congo red staining is rarely the source of false positives for amyloid. On the other hand, the heat artifact due to cautery in surgical specimens adopts some hyaline features, which can mimic amyloid deposits many times. Therefore, we decided to investigate the behavior of these artifacted areas with some of the ancillary techniques that are commonly used when diagnosing amyloidosis: Congo red ...

1. Congo red injected in vivo together with uric acid gives rise to more intense and diffuse red coloring in rats, especially in the subcutaneous and peri-articular tissues, than is the case in control rats injected simply with dye. 2. Uric add added in vitro to solutions of Congo red or trypan blue increases the speed of diffusion of these dyes, both through gelatin and the animal membranes (d...
