Efficient Hg adsorption using a silk fibroin/MOF-2/alginate composite: Kinetics and thermodynamics.

The effective adsorption of (mercuric ions) Hg onto synthesized and characterized composite materials based on calcium alginate (CG), zinc metal-organic farmwork (MOF-2), and silk fibroin powder (SF) has been reported in this study. Under various application conditions, the adsorption capacities of silk fibroin powder/zinc metal organic framework/alginate composite (ZSG) were compared with those of the other individual solid materials. These solid adsorbents materials were characterized by various physicochemical techniques.

Bivariate - generalized extreme value distribution: A comparative approach with applications to climate related data.

The premise of extreme value theory focuses on the stochastic behaviour and occurrence of extreme observations in an event that is random. Traditionally for univariate case, the behaviour of the maxima is described either by the types-I, types-II or types-III extreme value distributions, primarily known as the Gumbel, Fréchet or reversed Weibull models. These are all particular cases of the generalized extreme value ( ) model.

Fabrication of graphitic carbon nitride/gum Arabic/potassium carrageenan composite for efficient adsorption of erythromycin: Kinetic and thermodynamic studies.

Erythromycin (ERY) molecules are robust to the environment and hard to remove due to their aromatic structure. Nowadays, numerous researches have reported that the ERY amount in water is above the standard level and its removal is necessary. Here, we prepared three solid adsorbents: graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN), potassium carrageenan beads (Cr), and graphitic carbon nitride/gum Arabic/potassium carrageenan composite (g-ACr).

Anti-Cancer and Anti-Oxidant Bioactive Metabolites from WA7S6 Isolated from Marine Sources: In Vitro and In Silico Studies.

Cancer is a huge global disease burden. Every year, tens of millions of people worldwide are diagnosed with cancer, and more than half of them die as a result of it. The great biodiversity of the marine environment has increasingly piqued the interest of experts, especially in the field of drug discovery.

On the Extended Generalized Inverted Kumaraswamy Distribution.

In this work, we provide a new generated class of models, namely, the extended generalized inverted Kumaraswamy generated (EGIKw-G) family of distributions. Several structural properties (survival function (sf), hazard rate function (hrf), reverse hazard rate function (rhrf), quantile function (qf) and median, raw moment, generating function, mean deviation (md), etc.) are provided.
