the photocatalytic degradation of a common analgesic (acetaminophen) with titanium dioxide irradiated with low energy ultraviolet light (365 nm) was studied in order to determine the effect of several parameters such as catalyst’s weight, photochemical effect, and initial concentration. the results indicate that acetaminophen is degraded in the order of 4% by the photochemical effect. the pres...

Ib is a new nonpeptide AT1 receptor antagonist, which plays an active role in cardiovascular protection. Ib monoglucuronide has been identified as its main metabolite. A detailed study of Ib glucuronidation is important for predicting potential DDI. Besides, the elucidation of the "BSA effect" in Ib glucuronidation would make obtained kinetic parameters more predictive in IVIVE. "BSA effect" me...

The interaction of copper oxide nanoparticles and copper ions and proteinase K from Tritirachium album Limber has been investigated employing UV spectroscopy and kinetics measurements. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of nanoparticles of CuO for proteinase K. In this paper we compare the effect of copper oxide nanoparticles with the effect of copper ions on proteinase K sta...

the present study was carried out to investigate the potential of carboxylate group functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnt−cooh) adsorbent for the removal of methyl orange (mo) textile dye from aqueous solutions. the effects of ph, shaking time and temperature on adsorption capacity were studied; the contact time to obtain equilibrium at 298 ˚k was fixed at 25 min. the effect of te...

the present work is focused on the degradation of 4-chloro-2-nitrophenol in aqueous solution containing nano titanium dioxide, hydrogen peroxide and the combination of nano-tio2/h2o2. the effect of experimental parameters, such as the amount of nano- tio2 concentration of h2o2, initial concentration of 4-chloro-2-nitrophenol and ph on the reaction was investigated. experimental data obtained un...

The first ultraviolet sources in the universe are expected to have coupled the H i spin temperature to the gas kinetic temperature via scattering in the Lyα resonance (the “Wouthuysen-Field effect”). By establishing an H i spin temperature different from the temperature of the cosmic microwave background, the Wouthuysen-Field effect should allow observations of H i during the reionization epoch...

this experiment was designed to evaluate the effect of phenolic components of scrophularia striata powder on feed intake, digestion and fermentation, rumination kinetic and rumen ecosystem in lori-bakhtiari sheep. in this experiment, 12 six months old lambs and average weight 30±1.5 kg were fed with 0 (control), 3 and 6 percent scrophularia striata for one month. feed intake, digestibility, rum...

The role of high and low hydraulic conductivity (K) regions in heterogeneous flow fields with varying degrees of stratification and the subsequent effect of rate-dependent geochemical reactions is investigated. An example contamination scenario is used to to investigate potential impacts of kinetic sorption and local dispersion on plume migration and channeling. In this study, kinetic sorption ...

Context. Nucleation is considered to be the first step in dust and cloud formation atmospheres of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars, exoplanets, brown dwarfs. In these environments particles grow macroscopic sizes when gas phase species condense onto condensation nuclei (CCNs). Understanding processes CCNs AGB stars important because that formed their outflows enrich interstellar medium. Alth...

The quantum sieving effect of H2/D2 at 77 K on commercially available carbon molecular sieves (1.5GN-H and 3KT-172) was studied. An exceptional reverse kinetic quantum effect is observed on 1.5GN-H where D2 diffuses much faster than H2 with a ratio of up to 5.83 at low pressure, and the difference is still very evident even as the pressure increases up to 1 bar. D2 also diffuses faster than H2 ...
