The hydrothermal method as the eco-friendly environmental was used in this study to prepare a high efficient nanocomposite adsorbent based on biochar (BC) derived from Eriobotrya japonica leaves and magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgO NPs). prepared materials were characterized using FTIR, BET, SEM-EDX, TEM, XRD. adsorption of tartrazine (TZ) BC, MgO NPs, BC@MgO NPs better described by kinetic p...

Antibacterial activity of honey is due to the presence of methylglyoxal (MGO), H2O2, bee defensin as well as polyphenols. High MGO levels in manuka honey are the main source of antibacterial activity. Manuka honey has been reported to reduce the swarming and swimming motility of Pseudomonas aeruginosa due to de-flagellation. Due to the complexity of honey it is unknown if this effect is directl...

Recent studies have reported increases of methylglyoxal (MGO) in peritoneal dialysis patients, and that MGO-mediated inflammation plays an important role in the development of peritoneal fibrosis through production of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1). Linagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor, exerts anti-inflammatory effects independent of blood glucose levels. In this study, we ex...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of modifying aluminum oxide slips with magnesium oxide (MgO) to create a jointing material for In-Ceram Alumina. Jointed In-Ceram Alumina bars with In-Ceram Alumina slips containing 0-1.0 mass% MgO were examined by a three-point bending test. Joint-free bars were also tested as controls. Fracture surfaces were evaluated by scanning electro...

Calculation of the tunneling magnetoresistance ~TMR! of an epitaxial Fe/MgO/Fe~001! junction is reported. The conductances of the junction in its ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic configurations are determined without any approximations from the real-space Kubo formula using tight-binding bands fitted to an ab initio band structure of iron and MgO. The calculated optimistic TMR ratio is in ex...

Objective(s): Stress is a physiological response that can disrupt body elements homeostasis and lead to neurophysiological abnormality. This study has been investigated the serum and hippocampus Mg2+, Zn2+, Fe2+/3+ and Ca2+ level changes in two times after MgO NPs and ZnO NPs single injection following restraint stress in the male rat. Methods: Animals were divided into two main groups that eac...

Dolomite [CaMg(CO3)2] is an intolerable impurity in phosphate ores due to its MgO content. As high grade phosphate reserves become depleted, the need to develop a cost effective method for the removal of dolomite from high-MgO phosphate ores becomes increasingly important. The jigging process has been investigated as a method for the beneficiation of high-MgO sedimentary phosphate ores. A labor...

Abstract In the present study, aim is to experimentally measure isobaric specific heat, viscosity and thermal conductivity of different magnesium oxide (MgO) nanoparticles concentrations dispersed in ethylene glycol/ water mixture with ratio 50:50 vol% as a base fluid. The experiments were performed on 20 nm particle size MgO suspended fluid volume fractions from 0.25 1% temperature range 40 12...

Pulsed laser deposition method was employed to grow MgO thin films with preferred orientation on bare Si(100) and SiO2/Si(100) substrates. The orientation of MgO thin films was systematically investigated by varying deposition parameters. XRD analysis showed that the preferred orientation of MgO thin films would change from (111) to (100) when laser fluence decreased and oxygen pressure increas...

In the present study Mentha arvensis medaited Magnesium oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by novel green route followed advanced characterization via XRD, FTIR, UV, SEM, TEM, DLS and TGA. The mean grain size of 32.4 nm crystallite fcc morphology confirmed X-ray diffractive analysis. Scanning Transmission electron microscopy analysis revealed spherical elliptical morphologies biosynthesized n...
