The study of the Solar System is fundamental to answer key questions from space agencies, as outlined in their strategic plans, about content, origin, and evolution potential for life elsewhere. UV spectral range a crucial window investigate large area phenomena associated with this objective, ranging surfaces atmospheres magnetospheres bodies. In White Paper, submitted ESA response Voyage 2050...

Direct UV cross-linking combined with mass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful tool to identify hitherto non-characterized protein-RNA contact sites in native ribonucleoprotein particles (RNPs) such as the spliceosome. Identification of contact sites after cross-linking is restricted by: (i) the relatively low cross-linking yield and (ii) the amount of starting material available for cross-linking ...

The hydrophilic TiO2 films were successfully deposited on slide glass substrates using titanium tetraisopropoxide as a single precursor without carriers or bubbling gases by a metal-organic chemical vapor deposition method. The TiO2 films were employed by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, UV-Visible [UV-Vis] spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, contact angle mea...

Phenolic compounds are widely used in industries and other daily life for various purposes and enter in the industrial effluent and ultimately the final disposal of this effluent which contain phenol compounds are different water bodies which may get contaminated through the continuous disposal of the these effluents. Highly toxicity and carcinogenicity of these compounds can cause considerable...

Many probiotic lactobacilli and their extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) have beneficial immunological properties. However, it is unclear how they elicit the host immune response. We thus investigated the immunological properties of UV-killed Lactobacillus delbrueckii TU-1 and L. plantarum KM-9 cells as well as their extracellular polysaccharides (EPSs). High-performance liquid chromatography ...

The present work is focused on the homogeneous and heterogeneous photo-catalytic degradation of Hacid, a non-biodegradable dye intermediate from dye manufacturing industries, using Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) such as UV, UV/H2O2, UV/H2O2/Fe 2+ (photo-Fenton process), UV/TiO2 and UV/H2O2/TiO2. Degradation experiments were carried out to optimize the amount of catalyst, effect of Hacid co...

background: there are great interests in photocatalytic oxidation of contaminants using titanium dioxide in recent years. the main objective of this research was to study photocatalytic disinfection of coliform bacteria as water microbial pollution index using tio2 and a low pressure uv lamp in a batch reactor. methods: the polluted water was prepared by adding a colony of coliform in raw water...
