Ozone therapy is a modestly invasive procedure based on the regeneration capabilities of low ozone concentrations and used in medicine as an alternative/adjuvant treatment for different diseases. However, the cellular mechanisms accounting for the positive effects of mild ozonization are still largely unexplored. To this aim, in the present study the effects of low ozone concentrations (1 to 20...

Sulfonic aromatic compounds are widely used in the textile industry for the synthesis of azo dyes. The presence of the sulfonic group endows these compounds with high water-solubility and resistance to biological treatment. The present work analysed the efficacy of oxidation with ozone in the treatment of waters containing naphthalene-1-sulfonic acid, naphthalene-1,5-disulfonic acid and naphtha...

Aflatoxins (AFs) are cancerous secondary metabolites produced primarily by Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus in agricultural foodstuff such as peanuts, maize grains, cereals, and animal feeds. Food and Agricultural organization (FAO) estimated that as much as 25% of the world’s agricultural commodities are contaminated with mycotoxins, leading to significant economic losses. Moreov...

Abstract Quick sterilization using dry ozonation technology had been developed to destroy total pathogenic microorganism contamination in Spirulina powder effectively. This is safe and environmentally friendly, with carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) water (H O) as output. applications are easy inexpensive but provide results that meet the quality standards of pharmaceutical preparations according governme...
