A variety of adsorbents are available naturallyrice husk, neem bark, clays etc. that can be used to remove dye from the discharged waste. In this study,the use of lowcost, locally available, eco-friendly and highly efficient adsorbent has been investigated as an ideal alternative to the current expensive methods of removing dyes from wastewater. The removal of the textile dye Methylene blue (MB...

The dye-dilution method for the determination of plasma volume presents several problems, one of which is the estimation of dye concentration in plasma. It is with this problem that the present paper is primarily concerned. The most frequently used dye is Evans blue, T 1824. The colorimetric estimation of this dye in plasma is open to a number of possible errors, particularly those introduced b...

A growth medium with a specific oxidation-reduction potential containing peptone, dextrose, sodium succinate, sodium lactate, gelatin, sodium bicarbonate and blue tetrazolium, an indicator dye, in a tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane buffer was used to detect the presence of microorganisms in blood. The procedure involved the introduction of blood (and bacteria) into the growth medium with the dye...

The mechanism of Methylene Blue adsorption on acid activated carbon Vitex Negundo Stem (AAVNS) has been studied through batch experiments. Generally, dyes are organic compounds used as coloring products in chemical, textile, paper, printing, leather, plastics and various food industries. The need for the treatment of dye contaminated waste water passed out from the industry. In this study, Vite...

A synthesized functionalized pillared porous phosphate heterostructure (PPH), surface functionalized phenyl group, has been used to remove the dye Acid Blue 113 from wastewater. X-ray photoemission spectroscopy XPS and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to study its structure. The specific surface area of this was 498 m²/g. The adsorption capacities of PPH and phenyl surface functionalized (Φ-PP...

In the present work, the usefulness of almond peel as a sorbent material has been investigated for the removal of methylene blue from synthetic aqueous solutions in batch conditions. Isotherm of dye sorption was measured. The influence of different experimental parameters such as: almond peel mass, particles size, temperature, initial pH of solution and NaCl concentration on this isotherm was s...

The azo dye Coomassie Blue is relatively non-toxic, has a rapid disappearance rate, and does not cause any skin discoloration (Taylor and Shillingford, 1959). Because it has these properties the dye can be given repeatedly to man at short intervals of time, a particularly important quality for investigations based upon the Stewart-Hamilton indicator dilution curve. Indeed, the dye has already b...

Liposome is colloidal, vesicular structures capable of targeting to specific sites. Evans blue dye (hydrophilic dye) were formulated in liposomes using phosphatidyl choline, cholesterol and those liposomes were modified using surfactants surfactants span 20 , span 40 , span 80 or tween 80 at various molar ratio and optimized for its stable vesicular formation. The particle size and FTIR analysi...

Bioaccumulation of synthetic dyes viz. Acid Blue 93, Direct Red 28 and Basic Violet 3 by the environmental yeast isolate, Candida tropicalis growing in aqueous extract of sugarcane bagasse medium was studied in a batch system as a function of initial pH and dye concentrations. The optimum pH value for bioaccumulation was found to be 3.0 for Acid Blue 93 and Direct Red 28 and 5.0 for Basic Viole...
