Efficient Removal of Phenol Red Dye from Polluted Water Using Sustainable Low-Cost Sewage Sludge Activated Carbon: Adsorption and Reusability Studies.

The use of sewage sludge activated carbon (thickened samples ACS1 and non-thickened samples ACS2) in a variety of applications and simple environmentally friendly production techniques are attracting more and more attention. We offer here a novel environmentally friendly method based on the green synthesis of activated carbons (ACS1/ACS2) using sewage sludge (SS). These activated carbons are then used to effectively remove the water-based reactive dye phenol red (PR).

Subtalar Arthroereisis for Symptomatic Flexible Flatfoot in Adolescents: A Prospective Study of 26 Feet.

Background: Flexible flatfoot is a normal finding in infants and the arch is shaped spontaneously in most children before the age of 10 years. Flexible flatfoot is a common deformity in both adolescent and adult populations.

Objective: This prospective study aims to assess the functional and radiological outcomes of subtalar arthroereisis in adolescent patients with symptomatic flexible flatfoot.

Review on macromolecule-based magnetic theranostic agents for biomedical applications: Targeted therapy and diagnostic imaging.

Clinical diagnostics and biological research are advanced by magnetic theranostic, which uses macromolecule-based magnetic theranostic agents for targeted therapy and diagnostic imaging. Within this review, the interaction of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with biological macromolecules will be covered. The exciting potential of macromolecule-based magnetic theranostic agents to be used as a tool in drug delivery, photothermally therapy (PTT), gene therapy, hyperthermia therapy and photodynamic therapy (PDT) will be discussed.

Evaluation of the Dietary Arginine Supplementation on Yellow Catfish: From a Low-Temperature Farming Perspective.

The yellow catfish is an economically significant freshwater fish with increasing importance in aquaculture. However, the low temperature environments prevalent in certain regions pose challenges to its growth, development, and overall health. This study aimed to explore the impact of dietary arginine (Arg) addition on the growth, digestive capacity, and intestinal antioxidant response in fish under low temperature acclimation (18 °C).

Screening of urinary and genital tracts of adult females for the Chlamydia-like bacterium Parachlamydia acanthamoebae.

Some members of the Chlamydiales order, particularly Chlamydia, Waddlia, and Parachlamydia, have been associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes in humans and animals. Recently, the existence of another Chlamydia-like bacterium, namely Simkania, has been confirmed in the genitalia of adult females, but its possible pathogenic role has not yet been examined. In comparison to other members of Chlamydiales, the presence of Parachlamydia in the urogenitalia of human females and its involvement in obstetrical complications is less convincingly investigated and still a matter of debate.
