a bacterial strain (strain ps) was isolated from the textile effluents carrying serilene black bnfs® (c.i. disp. blk. mix) disperse dye. the isolate was able to decolorize the dye without the need for any exogenous carbon source. full sequencing of its 16s rrna indicated that bacillus sp strain ps is related to bacillus cereus groups.  silica- gel-thin layer chromatography of serilene black dye...

A screening using several laccase mediators (2,2-azinobis(3ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS), 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HBT), Nhydroxyacetanilide (NHA), 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-yloxy (TEMPO) and violuric acid (VA)) was performed on the degradation of three reactive textile dyes: Reactive Black 5 (RB5), Reactive Blue 114 (RB114) and Reactive Yellow 15 (RY15). ABTS was the most effe...

In this study, the Acid Black 1 dye containing effluent collected from a dyeing unit was examined with the alginate extracted from the marine brown algae, Sargassum sp. for its removal. Batch experiments were carried out using standard Jar test apparatus. Fourier Transform InfraRed (FT-IR) Spectroscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) techniques were used to characterize the raw algin...

OBJECTIVES Some patients with occupational asthma resulting from exposure to reactive dyes have skin reactivity to the causative dyes and specific IgE to reactive dyes have been found in these patients. However, the usefulness of skin prick tests (SPTs) and serological measurement of specific IgE in screening, diagnosis, and monitoring the occupational asthma resulting from exposure to reactive...

Abstract Azo dyes released by the textile industries cause severe damage to environment and living organisms. The degradation of azo is widely studied using enzymatic methods. Laccase a copper-containing enzyme that degrades into less toxic compounds. In this work, crude laccase produced alkaliphile Pseudomonas mendocina in mixed dye showed 0.386 U/mL activity at pH 8.5. A combination green syn...

background: colors make many problems and these are major sources of environmental pollution. therefore, this wastewater should be treated before discharge to environment to reduce the environmental threats. adsorption is one of the usual processes for color removal from wastewater. nanotube s are new adsorbents with extend application for adsorption of different compounds. aim of this study wa...
