Article Synopsis
- The COVID-19 lockdown in 2020 brought a significant drop in PM levels, yet some gaseous pollutants like carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxide increased, signalling changes in pollution sources.
- Analysis shows that ozone formation is highly likely during the observed period, with local emissions greatly affecting air quality before, during, and after the lockdown, indicating a complex relationship between different pollutants and their sources.
Article Synopsis
- Researchers developed a photocatalyst made from zeolitic imidazole framework-8 (ZIF-8) and red phosphorus (RP) to degrade organic dyes and produce hydrogen
- The 5 wt% ZIF-8/RP photocatalyst demonstrated impressive results, achieving a hydrogen generation rate of 822.5 μmol h g and degrading 92% of rhodamine dye under sunlight
- This method presents a cost-effective and safer alternative to traditional electron donors, using organic dye waste to help generate hydrogen energy
Aim: The aim of the study was to assess and evaluate the antimicrobial effectiveness of chitosan nanoparticles (CSNPs) with calcium hydroxide in the elimination of .
Materials And Methods: Using the broth microdilution method, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of calcium hydroxide and CSNPs were measured. The antibiofilm effect of calcium hydroxide and CSNPs against biofilm was qualitatively analyzed using a crystal violet assay.
