Background & Aims of the Study: Malachite Green (MG) is the most commonly used substance for dying cotton, food & pharmacy industries, paper, leather and silk. On inhalation it can cause difficult breathing, while on the direct contact it may cause permanent injury of the eyes of human and animals, burning sensations, nausea, vomiting, profuse sweating, mental confusion and met...

Pollution of water resources by various pollutants is nowadays a global environmental issue. Among the different type of water pollutants, dye represents a major polluting group. In this study, Azolla filiculides roots have been used for adsorption of Malachite Green (MG), a cationic dyed from aqueous solution. In this study, effects of operating parameters such as initial concentration of dye ...

In order to see the influence of different variable parameters (initial pH of the solution, Fe++ concentration and H2O2 concentration) and the efficiency to remove Malachite Green dye (Basic Green 4) from aqueous solution, Fenton Oxidation method was employed. Then different parameters were studied using known concentration (150 mg/l) and initial COD (256 mg/l) of prepared dye synthetic solutio...

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) and Fe3O4 magnetite particles were coated on spherical Kissirises; glucose oxidase (GOx) enzyme was immobilized on Kissiris/Fe3O4/TiO2 by physical adsorption. This catalyst was analyzed by a scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) measurements. The performance of the prepared biocatalyst in the...

We present a co-precipitation approach for the synthesis of smaller-sized CeO 2 nanoparticles enhanced removal malachite green dye from water.

Second harmonic generation (SHG) was used to study both the adsorption of malachite green (MG), a positively charged organic dye, onto liposomes of different lipid compositions, and the transport kinetics of MG across the liposome bilayer in real time. We found that the dye adsorption increased linearly with the fraction of negatively charged lipids in the bilayer. Similarly, the transport rate...

Phosphate analyses are fundamental to a broad range of biochemical applications involving inorganic phosphate and organic phosphoesters such as phospholipids, phosphorylated proteins, and nucleic acids. A practical automated method utilizing robotics is described in this report. Five colorimetric methods of phosphate analyses based on formation of a phosphomolybdate complex and compatible with ...

A method is described for counterstaining tissue for use with the glyoxylic acid reaction for visual detection of biogenic amines. Counterstaining is achieved by addition of the fluorescent dye malachite green to the sucrose-phosphate-glyoxylic acid (SPG) solution used for processing of cryostat sections of unfixed tissues. When bound to tissues, the dye provides red-orange fluorescence of back...

Enzymes Immobilization onto different types of the substrate could be helpful in various applicationsof biomedical devices and biosensors. Enzyme activity and stability could be affected by support andmethod of immobilization. In this study, the silver metal foam was successfully synthesized by thesoft-shell method and then was coated with silica. Then, glucose oxidase (GOx) immobilized on nonc...

Expanded graphite nanosheets (EG-nanosheets) were used for adsorption of Malachite Green (MG) from aqueous solution. The influences of dye concentrations, absorbent dosage, pH values and the temperatures on the adsorption were investigated as well. The dye adsorption experiments were carried out by utilizing batch procedure. EG-nanosheets were initially characterized by scanning electron micros...
