4 Nitrophenol (NP) or para nitrophenol (PNP) is one of the emerging pollutants from pesticides industries and it a major discharge any phenol consuming industry also severs as pharmaceutical wastewater. Design development photocatalytic treatment p-nitrophenol particularly to suit recovery reuse catalyst will aid in its commercial scale development. P-nitrophenol degradation has been studied ce...

Fishman, Y. Tao, W. E. Bentley, and T. K. Wood University of Connecticut, Storrs, CT University of Maryland, College Park, MD Oxygenases are promising biocatalysts for performing selecti...

1. Glucuronide formation of bilirubin and p-nitrophenol in vitro with excess of UDP-glucuronic acid by UDP-glucuronyltransferase from livers of young and adult rabbits was studied. 2. The development of UDP-glucuronyltransferase for the two substrates followed a markedly different pattern during maturation of young rabbits, p-nitrophenol-conjugation ability being much higher at birth than that ...

The mammalian glucoside-conjugation pathway was studied by using p-nitrophenol as the model substrate and mouse liver microsomal preparations as the source of enzyme. The microsomal preparations supplemented with UDP-glucose glucosylated p-nitrophenol; p-nitrophenyl glucoside was identified by chromatography in six solvent systems. The unsolubilized glucosyltransferase of fresh microsomal prepa...

Abstract 4-Nitrophenol is a highly toxic environmental pollutant. It challenge to selectively remove it from mixture of various pollutants. Herein, we report study on the selective adsorption 4-nitrophenol by using molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs). The polymer was synthesized cellulose as framework, onto which, complex imprinting molecule (i.e., 4-nitrophenol) and candidate material [namel...

The spectral characteristics of lactose repressor protein modified with two nitrophenol reporter groups have been determined. Reaction of Z-chloromercuri-4nitrophenol with repressor increases the apparent pK of the nitrophenol from 6.75 to 8.3 and alters the wavelength of maximum absorption. Subsequent binding of inducer shifts the apparent pK toward slightly more acid pH. The pK values of the ...

An ortho-nitrophenol solution was injected into the intestine which had been removed from an anesthetized mouse by placing a ligature at the duodenum and at the rectum. The intestine was then incubated in Ringer's solution at 37•Ž and the ortho-nitrophenol was found to be reduced to ortho aminophenol. At the same time, it was found that ortho-nitrophenol which was incubated with the intestinal ...

A mixed microbial culture was adapted to growth on parathion to determine the feasibility of using microorganisms to detoxify concentrated parathion in agricultural wastes. In a 600-ml chemostat, the culture was able to degrade 50 mg of parathion per liter per h. Para-nitrophenol, produced by enzymatic hydrolysis of parathion, caused delays in exponential growth which were directly proportional...

A Sb/palygorskite (PAL) composite was synthesized by a facile solvothermal process and applied in catalytic hydrogenation of p-nitrophenol for the first time. It was found that the Sb nanoparticles with the sizes of 2-5 nm were well dispersed on the fiber of PAL, while partial aggregated Sb nanoparticles with sizes smaller than 200 nm were also loaded on the PAL. The Sb/PAL composite with 9.7% ...

Organic compounds (2-naphthol, phenol, 4-chlorophenol, 4-nitrophenol, and 1,3,5-naphthalenetrisulfonic acid) were sufficiently separated from mixtures during flow in a fused silica capillary tube (50 microm in i.d. and 45 cm in length) with an aqueous mixed solvent of an ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (BMIM(+)Cl(-)), without a specific separation column. The method is based ...
