an investigation was conducted on hemin modified with axial ligand loaded onto magnetic carriers which created a kind of visible-light activated photocatalyst with good magnetic property. this photocatalyst exhibits excellent photo-degradation performance and can be readily reclaimed in the degradation of bis-phenol a (bpa) in aqueous solution under visible light. the catalysts were characteriz...

the objectives of this study were to determine and compare the chemical composition and ruminal degradability of dry matter (dm), crude protein (cp), neutral detergent fiber (ndf) and acid detergent fiber (adf) of ten pasture forage species dominant in the west provinces of iran. duplicate nylon bags of pasture samples were suspended in the rumen of four wethers for up to 96 h. the chemical com...

the forced degradation study of lidocaine hcl was carried out according to the ich guideline q1a (r2). the degradation conditions were assessed to be hydrolysis, oxidation, photolysis and dry heat during 24 h, 48 h and 72 h and then the samples were investigated by gc-fid method and nuclear magnetic resonance (nmr) spectroscopy. according to these results, the degradation products were not obse...

the magnetic and recyclable nanoparticles of cofe2o4 were synthesized by a reverse co-precipitation process. sonication was used to couple the cofe2o4 surface with ag2o. the characteristics and optical properties of the catalyst were studied by powder x-ray diffraction, uv–visible reflectance spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy analyses. pure cofe2o4 and cofe2o4/ag2o were utilized to ...

zno and tio2 nanoparticles wereimpregnated with merbromin dye and used as modified photocatalysts for degradation of phenol. dye-modified zno and tio2 showed significantly higher photocatalytic activity than neat zno and tio2 under visible light illumination. moreover, the prepared dye-modified zno showed superior photocatalytic efficiency in degradation of phenol compared to the dye-modified t...

this study was carried out to evaluate the effects of red onion (allium cepa l.) juice and green tea (camellia sinenses) extract on lipid oxidation and sensory characteristics of refrigerated (4ºc) sturgeon fillets (acipenser persicus). fresh fillets were tumbled in 1%, 2.5%, and 5% (v/v) aqueous solutions of onion juice (oj) and tea extract (te), and then stored for up to 8 days at 4°c in a re...

soil erosion is one of the most important forms of land degradation that threatens continued and sustained agricultural production in ghana. the most severely affected areas are the three northern regions especially upper east region, where large tracts of land have been destroyed by water erosion leading to soil depth reduction and decline in soil fertility. this study was carried out in talen...

land degradation is a major danger which restricting different areas of iran. systematic description of the environmentfor detection of environmental changes and the human-related causes and responses is essential in land cover changestudy. use of land cover data allow detection of where certain changes occur, what type of change, as well as how theland is changing. existing systems for classif...

This study was conducted to investigate the use of cubic LaMnO3 nano-perovskite as a green catalyst for the degradation of an aqueous solution of methyl orange under different conditions. Nanoscale cubic lanthanum manganite with the particle size of ~20 nm was successfully synthesized via citrate sol-gel method. The sample was characterized using the FT-IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy, XRD, SEM, and...

one of the indicators of management and sustainability control of forest resources is the definition deforestation and degradation types. these factors hazard quantitative and qualitative of the iranian forests. in this study with integrated approach, different forms of forest degradation identified in the forest areas with a reviews of library resources and then investigation the degree of sta...
