the present work is focused on the degradation of 4-chloro-2-nitrophenol in aqueous solution containing nano titanium dioxide, hydrogen peroxide and the combination of nano-tio2/h2o2. the effect of experimental parameters, such as the amount of nano- tio2 concentration of h2o2, initial concentration of 4-chloro-2-nitrophenol and ph on the reaction was investigated. experimental data obtained un...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the performance of soil-slurry bioreactor used for remediating contaminated soil with 4-nitrophenol (4-NP). METHODS The slurry bioreactor was used to degrade different concentrations of 4-nitrophenol with or without inoculating the acclimated activated sludge. HPLC system (Hewlett-Packard model 5050 with a UV detector) was used for the quantification of 4-nitrophenol....

The effects of pentaand hexadecanoic acids on the population and orientational structure of p-nitrophenol, at the airlwater interface at a bulk pH of 2, have been studied by using the technique of second-harmonic generation. The results indicate that, with increasing fatty acid at the interface, (1) the population of p-nitrophenol at the airlwater interface first increases and then decreases, (...

TiO2 prepared by a green aqueous sol–gel peptization process is co-doped with nitrogen and zirconium to improve extend its photoactivity the visible region. Two precursors are used: urea triethylamine; (IV) tert-butoxide added as source of zirconia. The N/Ti molar ratio fixed regardless chosen precursor while quantity zirconia set 0.7, 1.4, 2, or 2.8 mol%. performance physico-chemical propertie...

Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) activity has been measured in the lymphoblasts of 22 patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and correlated with routine immunologic cell surface markers. Fourteen of the 22 patients were considered to have non-T, non-B-cell ALL; 8 patients had T-cell disease. The median PNP activity in 21 control samples of normal peripheral blood mononuclear cell...

This research evaluates the efficiency of nanosized ZnO in the catalytic ozonation of 4-chloro-2-nitrophenol and determines the effect of pH on heterogeneous catalytic ozonation. The combined use of ozone and ZnO catalyst leads to conversion of 98% 4-chloro-2-nitrophenol during 5 min. In addition, it was found that in ZnO catalytic ozonation, the degradation efficiency of 4-chloro-2-nitrophenol...

The binding of Mg2+ X adenyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate (Mg2+ X AMP-PNP) to rabbit skeletal myofibrils has been measured in aqueous solution and in 50% ethylene glycol in the presence and absence of Ca2+. In water, the observed binding was weak with less than half the calculated myosin active sites filled even at 1 mM Mg2+ X AMP-PNP. In 50% ethylene glycol, the binding is at least 100-fold tighter ...

We assessed the efficacy of the polymeric nanoparticle containing docetaxel (PNP-DTX) in preclinical mouse models and determined the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) through clinical study. Subcutaneous and orthotopic mouse models were dedicated. Tumor growth delay in orthotopic model and quantification of in vivo imaging in orthotopic model were evaluated. Phase I clinical study was a single-cente...

Cyclodextrin (CD) capped CdTe quantum dots (QDs) were prepared with uniform dimension (average diameter ∼5 nm) and high quantum yield (ca. 65%). By taking advantage of the inclusion complexation of CD, β-CD-CdTe QDs exhibited strong fluorescence quenching in a linear relationship with the concentration of o-, m- and p-nitrophenol in the range of 20-100 μM. The detection limit reached 0.05 μM fo...

We describe specifications for high-purity 4-nitrophenol, which is suitable for spectrophotometric standardization. Such a reference material is needed in clinical enzymology to establish the proper molar absorptivity of 4-nitrophenol under final reaction conditions, particularly for measuring alkaline phosphatase activity in human serum. Some lots of 4-nitrophenol available commercially met th...
