Fe(3)O(4) coated polypyrrole (PPy) magnetic nanocomposite was prepared via in situ polymerization of pyrrole monomer for the removal of highly toxic Cr(VI). Structure and morphology of the prepared nanocomposite were characterized by attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), X-ray diffraction pattern, Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) an...

The ability of cynodon dactylon based thermally activated carbon to remove fluoride from aqueous solution has been investigated. The batch adsorption studies were carried out at neutral pH as the functions of contact time, adsorbent dose, adsorbate concentration, temperature and effect of co-anions, which are commonly present in water. The rate of adsorption was rapid during initial 105 minutes...

In this research, SBA-15/Polypyrrole (SBA-15/PPy) mesoporous nanocomposite was synthesized, characterized and applied for Acid Blue 62 (AB62) adsorption as a textile dye from aqueous solution. In order to evaluate the structural properties of synthesized adsorbent, FT-IR, FESEM and TEM images, XRD, and BET techniques were applied. Some parameters such as pH, dosage, and time which affect the ba...

Adsorption of Rhesus monkey erythrocytes to the plasma membranes of measles virusinfected cells is frequently carried out to detect the presence of plasma membrane-associated measles virus hemagglutinin. The hemagglutinin is a viral genome-coded structural glycoprotein of the measles virion that is associated with the plasma membrane of the host cell during measles virus replication. BGM/MV,ano...

The ability of gum kondagogu [Cochlospermum gossypium (L.) DC.], a natural carbohydrate biopolymer, was investigated for adsorptive removal of toxic metal ions Cd, Cu, Fe, Pb, Ni, Zn, Hg and total Cr present in industrial effluents. Various physico-chemical parameters, such as, pH, temperature, equilibrium contact time, % biosorption and adsorption capacity, were investigated. Metal biosorption...

background: in recent years, various toxic chemicals/compounds have been widely detected at dangerous levels in drinking water in many parts of the world posing a variety of serious health risks to human beings. one of these toxic chemicals is lead, so this paper aimed to evaluate of efficiency coconut husk as cheap adsorbent for removal lead under different conditions. methods: in the spring o...

The adsorption of CO on the supported gold nanoparticle catalysts Au/TiO2, Au/Fe2O3, and Au/ZrO2 was examined using infrared transmission spectroscopy to quantify the isobaric CO coverage as a function of temperature. The Temkin adsorbate interaction model was then applied to account for the adsorption behavior. To test the general applicability of the Temkin model, this treatment was also appl...

The interactions between lysozyme-imprinted hydrogel and their template protein were studied using adsorption measurements, competitive adsorption experiments, and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). The results were compared to the interactions between the imprinted polymer and a reference protein, cytochrome c. Experimental adsorption isotherms and competitive adsorption studies detected ...

The activated charcoal was used for the removal of alizarin red dye from aqueous solution. Different parameters such as effect of contact time, initial dye concentration and pH were investigated. It was observed from the concentration study that the amount of dye adsorbed per unit mass of the adsorbent increased with increase in dye concentration. The pH study presented that the adsorption of d...

Pyrethroid insecticides are known for their potential toxicity to aquatic invertebrates and many fish species. A significant problem in the study of pyrethroid toxicity is their extreme hydrophobicity. They can adsorb to test container surfaces and many studies, therefore, report pyrethroid levels as nominal water concentrations. In this study, pyrethroid adsorption to sampling and test contain...
