In this study, we scrutinized the degradation process of phoxim in the presence of Ag+ ions, maintaining a 1:1 molar ratio under diverse temperature conditions. Phoxim was chosen as the model compound to devise experimental methodologies that would shed light on the kinetic and degradation pathways within a time span of 0 to 184 min across varying temperatures. The Arrhenius equation was harnessed to ascertain the activation energies linked with the degradation of phoxim.

This paper introduces a novel, sensitive, and rapid method for the quantification of oxytetracycline, tetracycline, tilmicosin, and tylosin residues in cow's milk. The method involves a two-step process of extraction and detection. The extraction process uses acetonitrile and salting-out assisted liquid-liquid extraction to isolate the antibiotics from the milk.

In this study, the degradation of two organophosphate pesticides, namely, propetamphos and azamethiphos, in the presence of Ag at different mole ratios was investigated. Moreover, the kinetic and degradation pathways of both chemicals in the range of 0-60 min were explored. Gas chromatography equipped with a thermionic specific detector was used to investigate the pesticide degradation kinetics and mechanism.

Iron oxide is an important biological agent that has a key role in medical processes; however, the mechanism whereby it provides iron for human and animal cells and its biological uses remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate the effects of oral iron oxide on serum iron status and compare the results with those of iron sulfate as a reference salt. Fifteen adult rabbits were divided into 3 groups of 5 each: control group, iron sulfate group, and iron oxide group.
