A novel K(+) detection method was reported using a label-free G-quadruplex-forming oligonucleotide and a triphenylmethane fluorescent dye crystal violet (CV). This method is based on the fluorescence difference of some CV/G-quadruplex complexes in the presence of K(+) or Na(+), and the fluorescence change with the variation of K(+) concentration. According to the nature of the fluorescence chan...

Triphenylmethane (TPM) dye is one of the most prevalent and recalcitrant water contaminants. Magnetic reduced graphene oxide (rGO) is an efficient adsorbent for organic pollutants removal. However, the performance and adsorption kinetics of magnetic rGO towards TPM have not yet been studied. In this study, a magnetic Fe3O4@rGO nano-composite, which could be easily removed from water with a simp...

The aim of the present study was the decolourisation of mixture of two dyes belonging to different groups by two Pseudomonas fluorescens strains (Sz6 and SDz3). Influence of different incubation conditions on decolourisation effectiveness was evaluated. Dyes used in the experiment were diazo Evans blue (EB) and triphenylmethane brilliant green (BG). Another goal of the experiment was the estima...
