The fluorescent probe Singlet Oxygen Sensor Green is able to produce singlet oxygen under exposure to UV or visible radiation.

Application of activated carbon developed from rice husk, an agricultural waste product has been investigated for the removal of malachite green from aqueous solutions and wastewaters. Batch adsorption experiments were carried out for the removal of malachite green from aqueous solutions onto rice husk activated carbon. Effect of important parameters namely initial concentration of dye and cont...

The synthesis and crystallographic, spectroscopic and thermal characterization of the potassium complex [K(HL)(OH2)2] [H2L=4-(4-nitrophenylazo)resorcinol (magneson)] are reported. In the solid state, the K + ion is heptacoordinated and the ligand binds with three different coordination modes (via a bidentate chelating nitro group, a bridging nitro oxygen and a phenolic oxygen), giving rise to a...

The instant measurements provided by the Portacount fit-test instrument have been used as the gold standard in predicting the protection of an N95 respirator in a laboratory environment. The conventional Portacount fit-test method, however, cannot deliver real-time measurements of face-seal leakage when the N95 respirator is in use in clinical settings. This research was divided into two stages...

Inosine derivatives bearing a phosphodiester group at the O(6)-position of the nucleobase were synthesized via phosphitylation of the carbonyl oxygen using phosphoramidites activated by non-nucleophilic acidic activators.

A low cost and non-precious metal composite material g-C3N4-LaNiO3 (CNL) was synthesized as a bifunctional electrocatalyst for the air electrode of lithium-oxygen (Li-O2) batteries. The composition strategy changed the electron structure of LaNiO3 and g-C3N4, ensures high Ni(3+)/Ni(2+) ratio and more absorbed hydroxyl on the surface of CNL that can promote the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) an...

Sponge-like Ni3N/NC was prepared through a facile approach and was examined as a catalyst for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). This material can efficiently catalyze water oxidation to reach a current density of 10 mA cm-2 with a small overpotential of 310 mV in 1.0 M KOH aqueous solution. The high efficiency can be attributed to the good electronic conductivity, large specific surface area...
