Biodecolorization and Biodegradation of Azo Dye Reactive Orange-16 by Marine Nocardiopsis sp.
Background: Azo dyes are xenobiotic compounds that have bioaccumulated in the environment due to escalated industrial development. These are hazardous in nature, possessing carcinogenic and mutagenic effects on human beings. Objectives: The perspective of the present study was to isolate and to determine azo dye (Reactive Orange-16) degrading potential of...
متن کاملNon-Thermal Atmospheric-Pressure Plasma Possible Application in Wound Healing
Non-thermal atmospheric-pressure plasma, also named cold plasma, is defined as a partly ionized gas. Therefore, it cannot be equated with plasma from blood; it is not biological in nature. Non-thermal atmospheric-pressure plasma is a new innovative approach in medicine not only for the treatment of wounds, but with a wide-range of other applications, as e.g. topical treatment of other skin dise...
متن کاملPhotons and particles emitted from cold atmospheric-pressure plasma inactivate bacteria and biomolecules independently and synergistically.
Cold atmospheric-pressure plasmas are currently in use in medicine as surgical tools and are being evaluated for new applications, including wound treatment and cosmetic care. The disinfecting properties of plasmas are of particular interest, given the threat of antibiotic resistance to modern medicine. Plasma effluents comprise (V)UV photons and various reactive particles, such as accelerated ...
متن کاملEffects of Crowding on the Stability of a Surface-Tethered Biopolymer: An Experimental Study of Folding in a Highly Crowded Regime
The high packing densities and fixed geometries with which biomolecules can be attached to macroscopic surfaces suggest that crowding effects may be particularly significant under these often densely packed conditions. Exploring this question experimentally, we report here the effects of crowding on the stability of a simple, surface-attached DNA stem-loop. We find that crowding by densely pack...
متن کاملPolymeric particle formation through electrospraying at low atmospheric pressure.
Electrospraying is a simple and versatile technique capable of producing polymeric particles. However, most investigations carried out thus far have been performed at ambient atmospheric pressure without studying the influences of pressure on the formation of polymeric particles. Here, we report our investigation on the effects of varying the pressure and the solution concentration on the micro...
