The age- and gender-related changes in extracellular matrix components (elastin, elastin cross-links, fibrillin, collagen and glycoprotein) and mineral components (calcium, Ca; phosphorus, P) in human lumbar yellow ligaments were investigated using samples obtained from surgical specimens. The mineral (Ca and P) contents increased with ageing (r = 0.703 and r = 0.772, respectively), whereas the...

introduction rhodium metal is known for its stability in corrosive environments, physical beauty, and its unique properties. rhodium is now widely used for alloying platinum in thermocouples, crucibles, evaporating dishes, weighing boats windings for high-temperature furnaces. it has been applied as a coating material because of the hardness and luster of its surface. rhodium is present at abou...

Background & Aims of the Study: Dyes have significant role in environmental problems, due to their toxic effects on the food chain and sources of water. The purpose of this research was to study the adsorption of acid yellow 36 dye onto pinecone using batch system. Materials & Methods: This research was performed at laboratory scale and batch system. Equilibrium isotherms...

The removal kinetics and mechanism of alizarin red-s dye, adsorptions on coconut shell activated carbon [CSAC] is studied. The use of low cost ecofriendly adsorbent has been investigated as an ideal alternative to the current expensive methods of removing the dye from aqueous solution. The adsorption removal of Alizarin Red-S dye on CSAC was investigated using batch adsorption technique. The di...

The photophysical and photochemical properties of alizarin, a fluorescent organic red dye of the family of the anthraquinones, have been theoretically investigated by focusing our attention on its emission properties in relation to an excited-state internal proton transfers from the phenolic hydroxyl group to the carbonyl oxygen. The potential energy curve of the proton transfer in the first ex...

Seventeen commonly used dyes and 16 of their metabolites or derivatives were tested in the Salmonella-mammalian microsome mutagenicity test. Mutagens active with and without added Aroclor-induced rat liver microsome preparations (S9) were 3-aminopyrene, lithol red, methylene blue (USP), methyl yellow, neutral red, and phenol red. Those mutagenic only with S9 activation were 4-aminopyrazolone, 2...

The majority of urinary stones have been observed to grow by circular increments in the clinic and in animal studies. However, the mechanism of stone formation has not yet been elucidated. Marking the stone at specific time-points during the growth of the stone is likely to enable the clarification of the mechanisms behind lithogenesis. The objective of this study was to evaluate the role and e...

A systematic analysis of experimentally, solar parameters photogalvanics has been studied for performance using the D-R-S (Dye-Reductant–Surfactant) system as alizarin cyanine green–EDTA- sodium stearate system. H shaped photogalvanic was used under investigation innovative results. Different scientific instruments were in methodology set up i.e., microammeter, digital pH meter, and light sourc...
