Solvothermal-based synthesis of barium stannate nanosheets coupled with copper manganate nanoparticles for efficient photooxidation of tetracycline under visible light.

Photocatalytic oxidation of antibiotic waste over semiconducting heterojunction photocatalysts is considered eco-friendly because it is simple and operates under light irradiation. In this work, we apply a solvothermal-based process for obtaining high surface area barium stannate (BaSnO) nanosheets followed by adding 3.0-12.

In Vitro Evaluation of Antimicrobial Activity of Alimentary Canal Extracts from the Red Palm Weevil, Olivier Larvae.

The invasive red palm weevil, Olivier (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), is considered one of the world's most devastating insect pests to palm trees. It was observed that larvae of this pest are able to inhibit microbial growth on the rearing media when they start feeding and this observation has led us to study the effect of red palm weevils on various microbial species. The antimicrobial effect of extracts from different parts of the alimentary canal on Gram positive bacteria ( and ), Gram negative bacteria ( and spp.
