background and purpose: generated dye wastewater by the textile industry is usually toxic, non-biodegradable and resistant in the environment. eggshell is one of the inexpensive material and for the reason the vesicular structures can be used as a proper adsorbent for pollutants removal. the aim of this study is to investigate the efficiency of eggshell for removal of acid orange 2 dye from aqu...

Immediate allergic reactions to orange are rare and immunoglobulin (Ig) E–mediated [1]. We report the case of a 28-year-old man with anaphylaxis induced by fresh orange juice. The reaction was dose-dependent and could only be confi rmed by challenge test, because specifi c IgE to orange was undetectable by skin prick test (SPT) and CAP immunoassay. The patient had experienced identical anaphyla...

Monomeric [Co(II)(hep-H)(H2O)4]SO4 [1]SO4 and [Co(II)(hep-H)2(H2O)2](NO3)2 [2](NO3)2 have been developed from 2-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyridine (hep-H) and CoSO4·7H2O/Co(NO3)2·6H2O, respectively, at 298 K. On exposure to heat (120 °C), the light orange single crystal of [1]SO4 transforms to a pink single crystal corresponding to the neutral sulfato bridged dimeric complex [(Co(II)(hep-H)(H2O)2(μ2-sulf...

BACKGROUND Vitamin D has been added to calcium-fortified orange juice. It is unknown whether vitamin D is as bioavailable from orange juice as it is from supplements. OBJECTIVES The objective was to compare the bioavailability of vitamin D(2) and vitamin D(3) from orange juice with that from vitamin D(2) and vitamin D(3) supplements. A secondary aim was to determine which form of vitamin D is...

The Ru(III)(edta)/H(2)O(2) system (edta(4-) = ethylenediaminetretaacetate) was found to degrade the azo-dye Orange II at remarkably high efficiency under ambient conditions. Catalytic degradation of the dye was studied by using rapid-scan spectrophotometry as a function of [H(2)O(2)], [Orange II] and pH. Spectral analyses and kinetic data point towards a catalytic pathway involving the rapid fo...

Results Case A 30-year-old Thai woman, who presented with a history of angioedema for 6 months. Her angioedema involved lip, eyelid and hand swelling. She was referred to our Allergy Clinic for further investigation. It was found that her symptoms of angioedema usually occurred in 30 minutes after ingesting navel orange and disappeared after 1-2 hours later. She favored in navel orange and she ...
