When neutral red is added to the liquid medium in tissue cultures, more dye is taken up by healthy cells than by damaged cells. This forms the basis of a method for assessing the relative extent of cell damage in different cultures, the amounts of bound dye being determined directly by inspection of the stained cell sheets, or indirectly by estimating extracted dye colorimetrically. This proced...

industrial wastewater included the dyes one of the important sources of environmental pollution that founded in loom wastewater which are harmful for human health and environment. therefore, the purpose of this research was investigated removal of rb5 dye from aqueous solution by using of adsorption onto activated red mud as an cheap adsorbent. this research was experimental- laboratorial study...

pH is an important control parameter for maintenance of cell viability and tissue functions. pH monitoring provides valuable information on cell metabolic processes and the living environment. In this study, we prepared dual pH-sensitive, fluorescent dye-loaded polypeptide nanoparticles (DPNs) for ratiometric sensing of pH changes in living cells. DPNs contain two types of dyes: N-(rhodamine B)...

in this research we have developed a treatment method for textile wastewater by tio2/sio2-based magnetic nanocomposite. textile wastewater includes a large variety of dyes and chemicals and needs treatments. this manuscript presents a facile method for removing dyes from the textile wastewater by using tio2/sio2-based nanocomposite (fe3o4@sio2/tio2) under uv irradiation. this magnetic nanocompo...

We describe the use of the fluorescent dye nile red, 9-diethylamino-5H-benzo[alpha]phenoxazine-5-one, as a general-purpose reagent for the rapid detection and quantitation of a wide variety of lipids and other hydrophobic compounds separated by thin-layer chromatography. After samples are applied to silica gel plates and chromatographed, the plate is briefly dipped into a nile red solution (8 m...

Four viruses were irreversibly photosensitized by 4 × IO-SM-ethidium chloride but not by more dilute solutions. Photosensitization was greatest with vaccinia, pseudorabies, herpes tamarinus and reoviruses, intermediate with western equine encephalitis virus, and least with fowl plague and Newcastle disease viruses. Pseudorabies virus was also inactivated by ethidium chloride at 37 ° in the dark...

BACKGROUND The anti-HIV-1 neutralizing antibody assay is widely used in AIDS vaccine research and other experimental and clinical studies. The vital dye staining method applied in the detection of anti-HIV-1 neutralizing antibody has been used in many laboratories. However, the unknown factor(s) in sera or plasma affected cell growth and caused protection when the tested sera or plasma was cont...

Backgroud and purpose: Dye is one of the problems of industrial effluent such as textile industries. The dyes can be removed by various methods. Therefore, the aim of this study was the evaluation of adsorption rate of reactive red 198 from aqueous solution by activated red mud. Materials and methods: This research was a lab study. Activated red mud was used as an adsorbent to remove reactive r...
