Acid-etched graphitic carbon nitride (TGCN) nanosheets decorated with polyaniline (PANI) nanofibers for the adsorption and photocatalytic degradation of Methyl Orange (MO) Congo Red (CR) toxic textile dyes.

S INCE THE INITIAL work of Gray and Sterling,”2 the determination of red cell mass with radioactive sodium chromate has undergone several modifications. Read’ developed the technic of adding ascorbic acid in vitro to the blood-sodium chromate mixture to reduce chromate to trivalent chromium and prevent further uptake by red cells. The inhibition of chromium uptake by ascorbic acid supported the...

Multiple stable isotope and fatty acid analyses were applied to examine food web dynamics in an eelgrass Zostera marina L. system in the western Baltic Sea. Samples of eelgrass, epiphytic algae, sand microflora, red algae, phytoplankton and main consumer species were collected in June 2002. δ13C values of primary producers ranged from –9.6‰ for eelgrass to the most depleted value of –34.9‰ for ...

Fourteen tropical fruits from south Florida (red guava, white guava, carambola, red pitaya (red dragon), white pitaya (white dragon), mamey sapote, sapodilla, lychee, longan, green mango, ripe mango, green papaya, and ripe papaya) were evaluated for antioxidant activity, total soluble phenolics (TSP), total ascorbic acid (TAA), total dietary fiber (TDF), and pectin. ORAC (oxygen radical absorba...

INTRODUCTION Red blood cell transfusions are common in intensive care units. For many years, transfusions of red blood were thought to have obvious clinical benefits. However, in recent years, the risks and benefits of blood transfusions have been examined more carefully, including the risk of increased morbidity and mortality due to transfusion-related immunomodulation effects. OBJECTIVES To...

Hypericum androsaemum, also known as Tutsan, is a small evergreen shrub common in the Mediterranean basin where it is traditionally used as diuretic and hepatoprotective herbal drug. This plant possesses the peculiarity to produce fleshy and berry-like fruits that ripen from red to shiny black. In the present work, the chemical constituents of methanolic extracts and infusions of red and black ...

Due to its alkalinity, red mud produced by the Bayer process may affect both the environment and human health. For this reason, its further utilization instead of disposal is of great importance. Numerous methods have already been studied for hydrometallurgical treatment of red mud, especially for the recovery of various metallic components such as iron, aluminum, titanium or rare earth element...

‎Application of Box-Behnken Design and Response Surface Methodology Acid Red 18 Adsorption onto PAC‎ (Synthesized Carrot Waste) Coated with Fe3O4 Nanoparticles from Aquatic Solution: Kinetic Isotherm Studies

Purple acid phosphatases comprise a family of binuclear metal-containing acid hydrolases, representatives of which have been found in animals, plants, and fungi. The goal of this study was to characterize purple acid phosphatases from sweet potato tubers and soybean seeds and to establish their relationship with the only well-characterized plant purple acid phosphatase, the FeIII-ZnII-containin...
