In the two-stage cell transformation theory, cancer cells first receive initiation, which is mainly caused by DNA damage, and then promotion, which enhances transformation. Murine Balb/c 3T3 cells are widely used for transformation experiments because they lose contact inhibition ability when transformed. Electrolyzed reduced water (ERW), which is produced near a cathode during electrolysis of ...

Electrochemical conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) to small organic fuels (e.g. formate, methanol, ethylene, ethanol) is touted as one of the most promising approaches for solving the problems of climate change and energy security. In this study, we report the highly efficient electrochemical reduction of CO2 using cuprous oxide (Cu2O) electrodes to produce ethylene (C2H4) primarily. During CO2...

BACKGROUND Cryoelectrolysis is a new minimally invasive tissue ablation surgical technique that combines the ablation techniques of electrolytic ablation with cryosurgery. The goal of this study is to examine the hypothesis that electrolysis can take place in a frozen aqueous saline solution. METHOD To examine the hypothesis we performed a cryoelectrolytic ablation protocol in which electroly...

The reduction of the rhenium aryldiazenido complex [Cp*Re(CO)z(P-N2C&OMe)][BFJ results in the formation of the corresponding metal-bound dinitrogen complex Cp*Re(C0)2(N2). The mechanism of this transformation has been investigated by cyclic voltammetry (0, controlled-potentia1 electrolysis (CPE), and scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM). The SECM analysis supported an electrochemical E& m...

2-Amino-5,10-dioxo-4-aryl-5,10-dihydro-4H-benzo[g]chromene-3-carbonitrile derivatives are obtained in excellent yields with a simple and efficient procedure.This reaction can occur using electrocatalytic multicomponent chain transformation of aryl aldehydes, 2-hydroxynaphthalene-1,4-dione and malononitrile under neutral and mild conditions. Moreover, electrolysis is done in CH3CN as solvent, Te...

This work presents a new electrolysis-based microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) diaphragm actuator. Electrolysis is a technique for converting electrical energy to pneumatic energy. Theoretically electrolysis can achieve a strain of 136 000% and is capable of generating a pressure above 200 MPa. Electrolysis actuators require modest electrical power and produce minimal heat. Due to the large ...

Tap water is one of the causative factors of hospital infections. We examined the disinfective potential of electrolysis and mechanism of disinfection, and clarified the disinfective effect of electrolysis on tap water contaminated with bacteria, and discussed its clinical applications. Tap waters artificially contaminated with Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Legionella pneumophila, a...

These experiments were designed to give the dynamic electrolysis conditions of fluidized beds by the use of small palladium particles. Both direct current electrolysis and pulse power electrolysis methods were used in this study. The excess power observed was 90 mW for direct current electrolysis in D2O + 0.1 M LiOD (I=0.300 to 0.400 A). For pulse electrolysis (pulse width 1.0 μs, pulse frequen...

Water electrolysis is one of the simplest methods used for hydrogen production. It has the advantage of being able to produce hydrogen using only renewable energy. To expand the use of water electrolysis, it is mandatory to reduce energy consumption, cost, and maintenance of current electrolyzers, and, on the other hand, to increase their efficiency, durability, and safety. In this study, moder...

This paper deals with the application of electrolysis technology for the selective control of marine algal species. The sensitivity of different marine algal species to electrolysis may be different due to their size and structural differences. Electrolysis experiments were conducted using four algal species, namely Chlorella spp., Chaetoceros spp., Isochrysis spp. and Tetraselmis spp. Batch an...
