Quantification of the Contribution of Heterogeneous Surface Processes to Pollutant Abatement during Heterogeneous Catalytic Ozonation.

Heterogeneous surface processes such as adsorption and oxidation with surface-adsorbed reactive oxygen species (ROS, e.g., adsorbed oxygen atom (*O) and hydroxyl radicals (OH)) have been suggested to play an important role in pollutant abatement during heterogeneous catalytic ozonation (HCO).

Galectin-9 activates host immune response and improve immunoprotection of Onychostoma macrolepis against Aeromonas hydrophila infection.

Galectin-9 (Gal-9) belongs to a family of the glycan-binding proteins (GBPs) and is known to restrict bacterial activity via interacting with pathogen associated molecular pattern (PAMPs). However, the underlying immune mechanism of endogenous Gal-9 on fish against bacterial infection is still unclear. In this study, effects of Gal-9 from Onychostoma macrolepis (OmGal-9) on expression of immune-related genes were measured by HEK293T.

The effect of triclosan on intergeneric horizontal transmission of plasmid-mediated tigecycline resistance gene tet(X4) from Citrobacter freundii isolated from grass carp gut.

The transmission of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in pathogenic bacteria affects culture animal health, endangers food safety, and thus gravely threatens public health. However, information about the effect of disinfectants - triclosan (TCS) on ARGs dissemination of bacterial pathogens in aquatic animals is still limited. One Citrobacter freundii (C.

Can the commonly used quenching method really evaluate the role of reactive oxygen species in pollutant abatement during catalytic ozonation?

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as hydroxyl radicals (•OH), superoxide radicals (O), and singlet oxygen (O) have often been suggested to play a role in ozone-resistant pollutant abatement during catalytic ozonation. However, there are significant controversies regarding their relative importance in literature. Currently, the role of ROS in pollutant abatement is commonly evaluated by the quenching method based on the assumption that the added ROS quenchers (e.
