Back Cover: In article number 2100274, Shigehito Osawa, Hidenori Otsuka, and co-workers design a polymer chain containing copper complexes in the side to build locally concentrated state of an aqueous solution. this image, facilitated catalytic activity against hydrogen peroxide decomposition generates hydroxyl radicals, eventually attacking pathogens.

1. Physical studies of complex-formation between cytochrome c and yeast peroxidase are consistent with kinetic predictions that these complexes participate in the catalytic activity of yeast peroxidase towards ferrocytochrome c. Enzyme-ferricytochrome c complexes have been detected both by the analytical ultracentrifuge and by column chromatography, whereas an enzyme-ferrocytochrome c complex w...

conclusions the uv/zno system has been found an effective process with 90.2% cod removal and 95.6% dye removal after 50 minutes treatment. materials and methods in this work, zno catalyst and mercury lamp (uv-c, 254 nm) have been applied for removal of the c.i. sulphur red 14 dye from aqueous environments. the influence of various parameters such as the amount of zno, initial dye concentration,...

introduction: bleaching process can affect surface roughness of enamel, which is a vital factor in esthetic and resistance of tooth. the aim of this study was to compare surface roughness of enamel in teeth bleached using diode and neodymium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet (nd: yag) lasers with those bleached using conventional method. methods: in this study, 75 anterior human teeth from upper a...

Peroxide bleaching is significantly affected by transition and alkaline earth metals. Isolating the effects of different transition and alkaline earth metals on the reactions of peroxide with different representative lignin structures allows the separation of the positive from the negative contributions of these metal ions. In this work, five monomeric or dimeric phenolic lignin model compounds...

oil exploration and production zones are very frequently contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons or its derivatives. the most important exploration and production zones are located in south-west and south of the country, in iran. masjed soleiman city is located on an oil field. the soil of this region has been affected by the petroleum composition. mach petroleum seepages and springs (asphalt,...

The overproduction of hydrogen peroxide is implicated in the development of numerous diseases and there is currently great interest in developing contrast agents that can image hydrogen peroxide in vivo. In this report, we demonstrate that nanoparticles formulated from peroxalate esters and fluorescent dyes can image hydrogen peroxide in vivo with high specificity and sensitivity. The peroxalat...
