A new approach to quantifying myocyte cell death utilizing fluorescence-activated sorting of antimyosin antibody-labeled cells was used to study the effects of oxygen-generated free radicals on cell survival. Uptake of antimyosin, reflecting sarcolemmal damage, increased under conditions which promoted elevated free radical formation and decreased in the presence of increased levels of free rad...

Abstract. Carbon dioxide is considered an inert gas that rarely participates in atmospheric chemical reactions. Nonetheless, we show here CO2 involved some important photo-oxidation reactions the atmosphere through formation of carbonate radicals (CO3⚫-). This potentially active intermediate CO3⚫- routinely overlooked chemistry concerning its effect on sulfate formation. The present work demons...

The water soluble polysaccharide produced by the green variant of tetrasporic Gigartina skottsbergii was found to be composed of D-galactose and sulfate groups in a molar ratio of 1.0:0.65. (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy studies of the desulfated polysaccharide showed a major backbone structure of alternating 3-linked β-D-galactopyranosyl and 4-linked α-D-galactopyranosyl units, and minor sign...

Magnetic CuFe2O4 powder obtained by sol−gel method and coupled photocatalysis was used to activate peroxydisulfate for tetracycline (TC) removal. A scanning electron microscope, X−ray diffraction Raman spectroscopy FT−TR were characterize the catalysts. The degradation efficiency stability of TC highest under neutral conditions. rate reached 91.1% within 90 min. removal total organic carbon rea...

The photodegradation of two organophosphorus pesticides, malathian and diazinon, by sulfate radicals and bicarbonate radicals in aqueous solution were studied. The effect of the operational parameters such as pH, salt concentration, water type, H2O2 concentration and initial concentration of pesticides was studied. Gas chromatography mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) was used for analyses of pesticides...

Introduction. Azithromycin is among the broad-spectrum antibiotics that is widely available in various environmental systems and could have destructive effects on the ecosystem and human health due to its bacterial resistance. In this study, removal of azithromycin from wastewater using an advanced oxidation process of ultraviolet light with and without persulfate was investigated and effective...

Background: Advanced oxidation processes are used to remove toxic aromatic compounds with low biodegradability, such as 2-chlorophenol. This study investigates the use of Sulfate (SO4-) and persulfate (S2O82-) radicals, as one of the advanced oxidation methods, to remove 2- chlorophenol from aquatic solutions. Materials and Methods: This experimental and pilot-scale study was carried out usi...

Abstract The electrocatalytic nitrogen oxidation reaction (NOR) to generate nitrate is gaining increasing attention as an alternative approach the conventional industrial manufacture. But, current progress in NOR limited by difficulties activation and conversion of strong N≡N bond (941 kJ mol −1 ). Herein, we designed utilize sulfate enhance performance over Rh electrocatalyst. After addition s...
