The nanocomposites of poly (Acryl amide-co-Acrylic acid) with different contents of NaAzeolite were prepared using ammonium persulfate as an initiator and N, N′-methylenebisacrylamide as the crosslinker. The morphology was characterized by SEM and the structure ofnanocomposite materials was studied with XRD and FT-IR that showed the interaction betweenporous materials and poly (AAm-co-Aac). The...

In the present study, activated bleaching earth was used as clay adsorbent for an investigation of the adsorbability and adsorption kinetics of acid dyes (i.e., acid orange 51, acid blue 9, and acid orange 10) with three different molecular sizes from aqueous solution at 25 degrees C in a batch adsorber. The rate of adsorption has been investigated under the most important process parameters (i...

Penicillic acid, a secondary metabolite first isolated from Penicillium puberuluml, has since been shown to be produced by a variety of fungi. The compound possesses antimicrobial activity2,3, is toxic to mammals4 , and has proved carcinogenic to rats5• KURTZMAN AND CIEGLER6 found that in blue-eye-diseased com caused by Penicillium martensii, large quantities of penicillic acid are produced whe...

PROCEDURES The following have been used with success: haematoxylin and eosin, Perls's reaction for ferric iron, the periodic acid-Schiff reaction for carbohydrates, the alcian blue method for acid mucopolysaccharides, the Feulgen reaction for desoxyribonucleic acid, the periodic acid-hexamine silver method, Luxol fast blue for myelin, solochrome cyanine as a general stain, Heidenhain's iron hae...

The efficiency and feasibility of organic acids, especially formic and benzoic acids in the feeding of fur animals was investigated in five experiments, where the main emphasis was focused on the metabolism and rate of elimination of these preservatives, in order to assess practical dietary recommendations. Experiments were carried out with mink (Mustela vison), blue foxes (Alopex lagopus) and ...

In this work, we investigated the immobilization of methylene blue in a methyltrimethoxysilane sol-gel ceramic film on a glassy carbon electrode. Up to a certain saturation level, under our conditions, it was found that the methylene blue was tightly held and did not leach out into aqueous solutions, even with continuous immersion for up to 1 month. The electrochemical behavior of the immobiliz...

In this study, SBA-15-PAMAM mesoporous Nano-adsorbent was synthesized, characterized and applied for adsorption of Acid dyes (Acid Blue 62 (AB62) and Acid Red 266 (AR266)) from aqueous Medias. Adsorption of AB62 and AR266 on SBA-15 ordered mesoporous silica, polyamidoamine functionalized SBA-15(SBA-15-PAMAM), has been investigated. In order to assess the synthesized adsorbent constructional, FT...

Amino acid-Fe(II)-chelator complexes exhibit strong antioxidant activity. Taking advantage of the unique spectral characteristics of the complexes formed when Ferrozine (Fz) is used as the chelator, we now show that the primary blue complex (epsilon(max) at 632 nm) decomposes by two independent pathways: (i) a nonoxidative pathway involving dissociation of the amino acid component and formation...

The effects of chloroacetaldehyde (CAA) and methylene blue, both alone and together, on mitochondrial metabolism, hepatic glutathione content, and bile flow were investigated in rats. Oxidation of [1-14C]palmitic acid, [1-14C]octanoic acid, and [1,4-14C]succinic acid allowed for the differentiation between carnitine-dependent long-chain fatty acid metabolism, medium chain fatty acid oxidation, ...

Methemoglobinemia is a disorder characterized by the presence of a higher than normal level of methemoglobin. Prilocaine which is one of the oxidizing local anaesthetics is widely used in many local procedures. The first choice of treatment of complications due to the use of these local anaesthetics is methylene blue, while ascorbic acid is the alternative choice. The side effects of metilen bl...
