With plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO), one can easily obtain thick (tens of microns), mechanically resilient and chemically stable oxide coating on aluminum other valve metal alloys. The study luminescent PEO coatings is a relatively new subfield the already well-established preparation methods. In recent years, many luminescence-based approaches have been developed, which detection ionizing...

Metal contamination in groundwater often occurs various industrial processes. Studies have confirmed that polysulfide could reduce hexavalent chromium to trivalent chromium, achieving the effect of situ stabilization. For other metal groundwater, whether also had a stabilizing ability achieve remediation. This research focused on metals addition contaminated including lead, nickel, zinc, copper...

In their paper, “Chromium(III)-Induced 8-Hydroxydeoxyguanosine in DNA and Its Reduction by Antioxidants: Comparative Effects of Melatonin, Ascorbate, and Vitamin E,” Qi et al. (1) reported on a cellfree system and confirmed results from other laboratories that Cr(III) may react with peroxide to form reactive intermediates causing oxidative DNA damage. However, their conclusions on reactions in ...

Several industrial processes produce large amounts of heavy metals-rich wastes, which could be considered as “trash-can raw materials”. The incorporation in ceramic systems can be regarded as a key process to permanently incorporate hazardous heavy metals in stable matrixes. In particular the aim of this work is to prepare and evaluate environmental risk assessment of coloured glass and glass-c...
