Adsorption of cationic dye crystal violet (CV) onto a modified walnut shell (WS) adsorbent was investigated. Combined treatment WS using urea and sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) carried out. Surface modification adsorbents confirmed by FTIR analysis, pHpzc measurements, elemental SEM-EDX analysis. In order to optimize the adsorption conditions, effect solution pH, dose CV concentration studied mean...

Modulation of voltage-dependent sodium and potassium currents by charged amphiphiles was investigated in cardiac ventricular myocytes using the patch-clamp technique. Negatively charged sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) increased amplitude of INa, whereas positively charged dodecyltrimethylammonium (DDTMA) decreased INa. Furthermore, SDS shifted the steady-state activation and inactivation of INa in ...

Small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) becomes a procedure to correct myopia. The extracted lenticule can be used for other clinical scenarios. To prepare for allogeneic implantation, lenticule decellularization with preserved optical property, stromal architecture and chemistry would be necessary. We evaluated different methods to decellularize thin human corneal stromal lenticules create...

Bovine herpesvirus (infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus)-infected cell antigens were solubilized with Nonidet P-40. The crude antigen extract was separated by reaction with bovine hyperimmune serum in line immunoelectrophoresis; individual immunoprecipitates were used to immunize rabbits. Rabbit sera possessing serum neutralizing activity were analyzed by reaction with crude antigen extract...

Carbonaceous covalent triazine-based frameworks from 1,4-dicyanobenzene (CTF-1) can adsorb up to about 4 g g(-1) of the surfactants alkyl polyglycolether, C12EO7 and sodium dodecylsulfate, SDS from aqueous solution (c = 8.0 mmol L(-1)) which is more than 20-times the gravimetric uptake capacity of a carbon black (Printex L from Evonik). This high uptake is due to CTF sheet exfoliation. Taking i...

Removal of organic species from solid surfaces is a crucial process. The use oppositely charged surfactants provides potential method for enhanced removal. Neutron reflectometry has been used to investigate the complex behaviour pre-adsorbed and tenacious layer cationic surfactant didodecyldimethylammonium bromide (DDAB) on mica surface, during exposure different in solution. anionic sodium dod...

The effect of surfactants on the treatment of chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) wastewater by electro-coagulation-flotation (ECF) process was studied. Two surfactants, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) were employed in this study to compare the effect of cationic (CTAB) and anodic (SDS) surfactants on ECF. The cationic surfactant can enhance the removal of ...

The effect of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP), sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS), hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC), and D-fructose additives on the growth of BaTiO3 particles by aqueous synthesis is studied. Through different mechanisms, all the tested additives influenced the growth of BaTiO3. For high concentrations, PAA adsorbed on specific crystallographic faces changing...

Free-standing two-dimensional nanostrucutures, such as graphene and semiconductor nanomembranes (NMs) featuring their integration with flexible polymer substrates, address applications in which electronic devices need to be stretchable or conformally positioned to nonplanar surfaces. We report a surfactant-directed surface assembly approach to producing large-area NMs at the water-air interface...
