Background & Aims of the Study: Discharge of textile industry colored wastewater without enough treatment into natural water resources cause serious pollution. Most of the conventional wastewater treatment methods are not effective enough to remove these dyes from wastewater. In this study, efficiency of electrocoagulation process with iron electrodes for treatment of Reactive Yellow 14 dye...

Se presenta la síntesis electroquímica del Polipirrol (Ppy) sobre cobre pasivado en distintos medios para el estudio de sus propiedades anticorrosivas. Las soluciones empleadas: ácido oxálico 0,3 mol L-1, buffer fosfato a una concentración dihidrogenofosfato 0,10 L-1 e hidrógeno y acetato sodio 0,25 cubren un rango pH 1, 4 8 respectivamente. El proceso electropolimerización pirrol ocurre los po...

On the basis of (13)C and deuterium isotope effects, L-ribulose-5-phosphate 4-epimerase catalyzes the epimerization of L-ribulose 5-phosphate to D-xylulose 5-phosphate by an aldol cleavage to the enediolate of dihydroxyacetone and glycolaldehyde phosphate, followed by rotation of the aldehyde group and condensation to the epimer at C-4. With the wild-type enzyme, (13)C isotope effects were 1.85...

Increasing urbanisation and industrialisation have led to a dramatic reduction in forest area, and now only culturally protected remnants of natural forests and some new plantations remain in most areas of the north of Iran. To investigate the status of the chemical and physical characteristics of soil under these remnant forests and assess the possible impacts of reforestation on soil properti...

a study was conducted to standardize production and postharvest handling of lily (lilium longifolium l. cv. mero star). in production trial, three plant densities viz.10, 20 and 30 cm between plants in 60 cm spaced rows and two planting depths viz.7.5 and 15 cm were compared. increased plant growth, yield and quality was recorded when plants were grown at a close spacing of 10 cm with 15 cm pla...

The present study focuses on the past (1985) and current (2018) status of the Naama’s Sabkha, particularly its salinity, vegetation, and water status. The acquired results will be useful for the preservation of Sabkha biodiversity. The representative sampling allowed us to make 136 soil samples over two depths: topsoil (0-4 cm) and down soil (4-30 cm) layers. The salinity analyses revealed that...

This study aims to co-microencapsulate the Ruellia tuberosa L. and Cosmos caudatus K. extracts, with chitosan–sodium tripolyphosphate (Na-TPP) as coating material. α-Amylase inhibition antioxidant assays were conducted determine potential of microcapsules used antidiabetic agents. The manufactured under influences pH, Na-TPP concentration, stirring time. optimum microencapsulation conditions se...

We describe a new chromogenic substrate and assay for determining N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (EC 3.2.1.30; NAG) activity in normal and pathological human urine. The novel substrate, ammonium 5-[4-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranosyloxy)-3- methoxyphenylmethylene]-2-thioxothiazolidin-4-one-3-ethan oate (VRA-GlcNAc), is prepared by condensation of vanillyl N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminide...

A new simple rapid and sensitive spectrophotometric method has been developed for the determination of ketoprofen in pharmaceutical preparations. The method is based on the reaction of ketoprofen with an analytical reagent--Astra Phloxin FF--at pH 8.0-10.8 and followed by the extraction of formed ion associate in toluene with spectrophotometric detection (it has an absorption maximum at 563 nm,...
