Natural pigments extracted from plants are raised as a vital substitute to artificial dyes. The present study was conducted extract pigment Bistorta amplexicaule and evaluate its dyeing property, antimicrobial activity toxicity. extraction done by maceration sonication methods with 7.5% 5% yield, respectively. appeared bright- amber colored which used for fabrics food using traditional m...

A novel approach for classification and dating of the black gel pen ink entries on document was developed based on ion-pairing high-performance liquid chromatography (IP-HPLC). Ninety-three black gel pens were collected and divided into two groups, dye-based and pigment-based, by preliminary solubility test. The chromatographic conditions for separation of the dye-based black gel pen inks were ...

abstract background: dyes are visible materials and are considered as one of the hazardous components that make up the industrial waste. dye compounds in natural water, even in very low concentrations, will lead to environmental problems. azo dyes are compounds with one or more –n=n– groups and are used in textile industry. because of its low price, solubility, and stability, azo dyes are widel...

water plays a vital and essential role in our ecosystem. this natural resource is becoming scarce, making its availability a major social and economic concern. use of a large variety of synthetic dyes in textile industries has raised an hazardous environmental alert. about 17 - 20% of freshwater pollution is caused by textile effluents. these effluents are recalcitrant to biodegradation and cau...

The dyes extracted from pomegranate and berry fruits were successfully used in the fabrication of natural dye sensitized solar cells (NDSSC). The morphology, porosity, surface roughness, thickness, absorption and emission characteristics of the pomegranate dye sensitized photo-anode were studied using various analytical techniques including FESEM, EDS, TEM, AFM, FTIR, Raman, Fluorescence and Ab...

Clinoptilolite type of zeolite (CZ) is a promising material for biomedicine and pharmaceutics due to its non-toxicity, thermal stability, expanded surface area, and exceptional ability to adsorb various atoms and organic molecules into micropores. Using multiphoton microscopy, we demonstrated that individual CZ particles produce two-photon excited luminescence and second harmonic generation sig...

The present study prepares alkali lignin (AL) via acidification of black liquor, obtained from a pulp and paper factory. The average molecular weight of AL (equal to 2,530 g/mol) has been determined with gel permeation chromatography. AL has been modified by ethylene glycol, while lignin nanoparticles (LN) has been prepared through acid precipitation technology, their size being assessed by mea...
