The aim of this study was to find optimum dose of ferrous sulphate and hydrogen peroxide in Fenton oxidation process for treatment of dyeing wastewater. Fenton process is the advanced oxidation method used mainly for COD and colour removal. Experiments are done on synthetic wastewater prepared from three different dyes; acidic, disperse and reactive; and also effluent obtained from industry. Th...

1. The effect of fortification of food with iron to provide 10 mg elemental Fe/child per d was studied in preschool children maintained on a cereal diet, over a 5-month period. 2. The absorption of 5 mg Fe as ferrous sulphate mixed in one meal was 3.3% of the test dose and when 3.3 mg was given with each of three meals over a 2 d period the corresponding value was 4.8%. 3. The mean absorption o...

OBJECTIVE To determine the degree of liking of the Oportunidades programme dietary supplements (DS)--purees and beverages--added with different iron salts (IS): reduced iron (RI), ferrous sulphate (FS) or ferrous fumarate (FF) during 24 weeks of storage. MATERIALS AND METHODS The DS were evaluated through a hedonic scale for aroma, flavour and colour attributes; at time zero and every eight w...

Szucs (1913) reported that hydrogen peroxide increased the permeability of the living cell. Following up a previous observation [Bokorny, 1886], he found that if threads of Spirogyra were treated first with hydrogen peroxide and then with ferrous sulphate solutions, a dark precipitate appeared within the cells. He concluded that the hydrogen peroxide had so increased the permeability of the cel...

The aim of this study was to determine the iron status of infants who consumed porridge cooked in water with added ferrous sulphate. A total of 234 infants, aged 6-12 months, were recruited from 36 nurseries in the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea (DPRK North Korea) and randomly divided into iron (Fe) and placebo groups. At baseline, almost half the children had Hb<110 g/L and no significan...

forty neonate calves were used in this study. the animals were divided into two treatment (n = 20) andcontrol (n = 20) groups. in the treatment group, oral iron as ferrous sulphate was supplemented to each calf atthe dose of 150 mg/day for 28 days, from the birthday. blood sampling was taken from jugular veinimmediately after birth and on days 7, 14, 21 and 28 after birth. significant differenc...

Fe absorption from water-soluble forms of Fe is inversely proportional to Fe status in humans. Whether this is true for poorly soluble Fe compounds is uncertain. Our objectives were therefore (1) to compare the up-regulation of Fe absorption at low Fe status from ferrous sulphate (FS) and ferric pyrophosphate (FPP) and (2) to compare the efficacy of FS with FPP in a fortification trial to incre...

Application of natural dyes in textile coloring has been widely used because it is more environmentally friendly than synthetic and able to produce various colors from one dye. In this study, cotton fabric was treated with chitosan at different concentrations (0, 0.25%, 0.5%, 1%) determine its effect on the color fastness using mango leaves extract as dyes. Fastness ironing, washing sun drying ...
