refining oil-contaminated soils has a great importance especially in oil producer countries such as iran. different methods have been provided to eliminate oil contaminations from soil. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of hydrogen peroxide concentration in refining oil-contaminated soils with fenton chemical method. to do this, a calcareous soil complex sample was collected a...

gross hematuria or macroscopic hematuria is a high risk urologic condition that might occur in different settings. in the case of continued gross hematuria, blood clot size may grow and lead to complete obstruction of urinary outflow. placement of three-way catheter, continuous bladder irrigation with normal saline, and cystoscopy are conventional treatments. here we introduce a case with urina...

A batch photoreactor was used to evaluate the UV/H2O2 oxidation process for the removal of humic acids in water. A 450-W UV lamp with high-pressure mercury vapor was employed as the light source. The residues of humic acids and hydrogen peroxide were measured for assessment of process performance and understanding of process reaction behavior. The UV photolysis alone can play an important role ...

Platinum nanourchins supported on microfibrilated cellulose films (MFC) were fabricated and evaluated as hydrogen peroxide catalysts for small-scale, autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) propulsion systems. The catalytic substrate was synthesized through the reduction of chloroplatinic acid to create a thick film of Pt coral-like microstructures coated with Pt urchin-like nanowires that are arra...

We describe a new gasometric method to determine erythrocyte catalase activity by the measurement of the volume of oxygen produced as a result of hydrogen peroxide decomposition in a system where enzyme and substrate are separated in a special reaction test tube connected to a manometer and the reagents are mixed with a motor-driven stirrer. The position of the reagents in the test tube permits...

Biotransformation processes accompanied by whole yeast cells as biocatalyst are a promising area of food industry. Among the chemical sanitizers currently used in food technology, hydrogen peroxide is a very effective microbicidal and bleaching agent. In this paper, permeabilization has been applied to Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast cells aiming at increased intracellular catalase activity for ...
