Fast Green (FCF) dye is commonly used in both cytology and histology applications. Previous studies have found that it can cause mutagenic and tumorigenic effects in experimental human and animal populations. It can also be a source of skin, eye, respiratory, and digestive irritation. The purpose of this study was to examine the use of thin film membranes to degrade FCF. A thin film membrane of...

PURPOSE This study aimed to develop a copper-aluminium-nickel alloy which has properties comparable to that of dental alloys used for dental post and core applications with the reasonable cost. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixteen groups of experimental copper alloys with variants of 3, 6, 9, 12 wt% Al and 0, 2, 4, 6 wt% Ni were prepared and casted. Their properties were tested and evaluated. The da...

The main problem when treating industrial wastewater is the removal of dyes. Some of the physical and chemical treatment techniques were effective but they might result in the production of toxic by-products and could also be the cause of a secondary pollution problem due to excessive chemical use. In order to overcome the drawbacks, the present work has focused on the biodegradation of dyes us...

Polysaccharides are known as natural and renewable feed stock for synthesizing high performance macromolecular materials. The popular, versatile and convenient way to develop polysaccharide is being based on materials used for the grafting of synthetic polymers onto natural polysaccharides. Although the attractive chemical and physical properties of polysaccharide co-polymeric materials, undesi...
