the optimization of process conditions for the degradation of acid blue 193 by uv/peroxydisulfate was investigated using response surface methodology (rsm). the effects of four parameters namely initial k2s2o8 concentration, uv irradiation, temperature, and initial dye concentration on two process responses, color removal and the rate constants of the first-order kinetic equations, were investi...

introduction: in the current study we evaluated the incremental value of lateral pelvic lymphoscintigraphy imaging of endometrial or cervical cancer patients who underwent sentinel node mapping. methods: operable endometrial and cervical cancer patients without clinical or paraclinical evidence of lymph node involvement were included in the study. the day before surgery the patients were sent ...

an agricultural waste and eco-friendly biosorbent i.e. rice husk has been used as a cheap adsorbentfor the removal of methylene blue dye from aqueous solutions. the physical properties of the developedadsorbent were characterized using ftir. the study was realized using batch experiments. the effectsof contact time, ph, initial dye concentration, biosorbent dose and temperature were investigate...

The feasibility of employing nanofiltration (NF) in the decolorization of ionic (direct blue 86) and nonionic (disperse blue 56) dye aqueous solutions was investigated. The effects of feed concentration (60- 180 mg/l), pressure (0.5- 1.1 MPa) and pH (6- 10) were studied. Experiments were performed in a laboratory- scale set up by using a TFC commercial spiral wound polyamide nanofilter. The res...

in this study, removal of methylene blue by electro-coagulation method using aluminum and iron electrodes was investigated. the influence of the operating parameters such as contact time, current density, anode type, inter-electrodes distance, initial and final ph and energy consumption rate was determined. dye removal was increased with increases in solution ph, current density and contact tim...

Abstract We report the chemical synthesis of poly( aniline-co - aniline-2,5-disulfonic acid) ) and its composite containing L-hexuronic acid metallic Ag/SiO 2 nanoparticles as a new thermally stable anionic polyelectrolyte for removing safranin dye. The was characterized by IR, UV, cyclic voltammetry, SEM, TEM, TGA, DSC, EDXS elemental analyses. Microscopic images exhibited intensified spherica...

Herein, we report a case of sentinel lymph node mapping in a uterine cervix cancer patient, referring to the nuclear medicine department of our institute. Lymphoscintigraphy images showed inappropriate intra‐cervical injection of radiotracer. Blue dye technique was applied for sentinel lymph node mapping, using intra‐cervical injection of methylene blue. Two blue/cold sentinel lymph nodes, with...

The Fallopian tube can be damaged by different noxious substances that may change cellular ultrastructure and function. Alteration of the cell membrane allows the passage of certain aniline dyes, which can stain the nucleus. A total of 310 Fallopian tubes from 163 patients who underwent a surgical or diagnostic laparoscopy during fertility studies was analysed by salpingoscopy. Cellular nuclei ...
