the effects of coatingtreatments (waxand plasticbags) combined with methylsalicylate on the fruit quality and chilling injury of moro blood orange were studied during storage. treated fruits were kept in storage for 80 days at 5 oc and 90-95% relative humidity. some characteristics such as pulp and skin total phenolics, antioxidant capacity, total anthocyanin, lipid peroxidation, and the chilli...

Reaction of NiCl2·6H2O, D-camphoric acid (D-H2cam), and N,N′-bis(pyraz-2-yl)piperazine (bpzpip) in pure water at 150 ◦C afforded a novel nickel(II) coordination layer, [Ni4(D-cam)2(D-Hcam)4(bpzpip)4(H2O)2] (1), under hydro(solvo)thermal conditions. Single-crystal X-ray structure analysis reveals that 1 adopts a six-connected two-dimensional (2D) chiral layer structure with 36-hxl topology. Dye ...

Single, binary and ternary nanomaterials were synthesized by precipitation, solvothermal, simple solution impregnation methods to serve as photocatalysts. The crystal structure, morphology, band gap energy, functional groups optical properties of these materials characterized XRD, SEM-EDX, UV-Vis, FTIR, PL instrumental techniques, respectively. Photocatalaytic degradation performances all the a...

Three aqueous self-assembling poly(acrylate) networks have been designed to gain insight into the factors controlling the complexation and release of small molecules within them. These networks are formed between 8.8% 6A-(2-aminoethyl)amino-6A-deoxy-6A-β-cyclodextrin, β-CDen, randomly substituted poly(acrylate), PAAβ-CDen, and one of the 3.3% 1-(2-aminoethyl)amidoadamantyl, ADen, 3.0% 1-(6-amin...

In this study, we isolated and characterized a new strain of Klebsiella sp. Y3, which was capable of decolourizing azo dyes under anaerobic conditions. The effects of physico-chemical parameters on the Methyl Red degradation by the strain were determined. The results indicated that strain Y3 exhibited a good decolourization ability in the range of pH from 4 to 9, temperature from 30 °C to 42 °C...

In this research work, we report a simple method called reflux condensation method for synthesizing Co3O4 nanoparticles using cheap chemicals such as, cobalt acetate (precursor salt), sodium monododecyl sulphate - SDS (surfactant) and N, N - Dimethylformamide - DMF (solvent). The prepared materials were heat treated at 200, 400, 600 and 800 oC for each 2 h to get phase pure product. The calcine...

Cardiac myocytes whose lysosomes had been pre-labelled with acridine orange were exposed to either L-amino acid methyl esters (L-leucine or methionine methyl ester) or to 'lysosomotropic' weak bases (chloroquine, methylamine, and NH4Cl) for 1 h. Both types of interventions dilated lysosomes equally and inhibited proteolysis to varying degrees. The weak bases produced no apparent alterations in ...

Nanometer TiO2 photocatalysts were prepared by the sol–gel method. The catalysts characterized X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible and other techniques. Methyl orange solution was used for degradation of organic material ultrasonic technology to determine photocatalytic performance catalysts. results show that Ni-N-TiO2 is clearly improved under condi...

A total of twenty endophytic fungi successfully isolated from Melastoma malabathricum (Senduduk) were examined for their ability to decolourise azo dyes: Congo red, Orange G, and Methyl red and an anthraquinone dye, Remazol Brilliant Blue R. Initial screening on the glucose minimal media agar plates amended with 200 mg L(-1) of each respective dye showed that only isolate MS8 was able to decolo...

ABSTRACT. In this work, an activated carbon composite made with magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgONP-AC) was effectively utilized for methyl orange (MO) adsorption. The effect of pH (6-10), mass MgONP-AC (0.1-0.3 g/L), initial MO concentration (10-30 mg/L), and temperature (283-323 K) on removal investigated using a central rotatable experimental design based the response surface technique (RSM...
