background fenton (fe2+ and h2o2) and modified fenton (fe3+ and h2o2) are two popular methods used in advanced oxidation processes (aop) and degradation of persistent organic pollutants (pops), such as dye compounds. in these processes, fe2+ and fe3+ as catalysts and h2o2 as the oxidizing agent are added to the reactor. objectives the aim of the current study is to assess the abovementioned met...

White spotting variant (Wv) mice are spontaneous mutants attributed to a point mutation in the c-Kit gene, which reduces the tyrosine kinase activity to around 1% and affects the development of melanocytes, mast cells, and germ cells. Homozygous mutant mice are sterile but can live nearly a normal life span. The female Wv mice have a greatly reduced ovarian germ cell and follicle reserve at bir...

Graphite oxide was synthesized from natural flake graphite by the modified Hummers method. In brief, 200 mg of Graphite particles were immersed in Concentrated sulfuric acid (46 ml) and KMnO4 (6 g) was added slowly in small quantities in which temperature was maintained between the 0 and 5 c using an ice bath, after the complete oxidation of KMnO4, the mixture was heated to 37 c and kept at thi...

The capability of Cr(III) to induce DNA lesions generated by oxidative damage was investigated in this study by examining the formation of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in calf thymus DNA by CrCl3 and/or H2O2 in 10 mM phosphate buffer. In the presence of 0.5 mM H2O2, the formation of 8-OHdG markedly increased with increasing CrCl3 concentration. In contrast, H2O2 or CrCl3 alone did not cause...

Biocatalysis based effluent treatment has outclassed the presently favored physico-chemical treatments due to nil sludge production and monetary savings. Azo dyes are commonly employed in the leather industry and pose a great threat to the environment. Here, we show the degradation of C. I. Acid blue 113 using horseradish peroxidase (HRP) assisted with H2O2 as a co-substrate. It was observed th...

A sensitive method for evaluating extracellular parasite viability was used to determine the in vitro susceptibility of virulent Toxoplasma gondii to selected oxygen intermediates. By acridine orange fluorescent staining criteria, toxoplasmas were resistant to up to either 10(-3) M reagent H2O2 or H2O2 generated by glucose-glucose oxidase. In keeping with a lack of sensitivity to H2O2, toxoplas...

The aim of the present investigation was to verify the effect of H2O2-induced oxidative stress on SO4= uptake through Band 3 protein, responsible for Cl-/HCO3- as well as for cell membrane deformability, due to its cross link with cytoskeletal proteins. The role of cytoplasmic proteins binding to Band 3 protein has been also considered by assaying H2O2 effects on hemoglobin-free resealed ghosts...

– Briefly we’ll show in Theorem 1.2 (sketched last time) that the representation question is essential — sometimes, by choosing the wrong function class, you can get a bad error, even though there are simple predictors that get 0 error. – Continuous fit I: box approximations; namely, we’ll show that a variety of functions can approximate continuous functions by showing they approximate piecewis...
