Morphology-dependent MoO/Ni-F nanostructures with enhanced electrochemical hydrogen peroxide detection.

The present report investigates the various MoO morphologies prepared via different approaches such as morphologies are cubic sheet, ribbon, and hexagonal sheet. These prepared nanostructures are modified as a MoO/Ni-F electrode used to detect hydrogen peroxide (HO). The influence of the morphology on the microstructural, morphological, electronic state, optical and electrochemical properties of MoO nanostructures are systematically studied.

The study on lead desorption from the real-field contaminated soil by circulation-enhanced electrokinetics (CEEK) with EDTA.

This study applied a circulation-enhanced electrokinetics (CEEK) technique to remove heavy metal lead from the agricultural land. Soil samples (lead concentration around 4000 mg/kg) were collected in a certain polluted agricultural site in Nantou, Taiwan. Operational parameters of CEEK such as the voltage gradient (1.

The lead contaminated land treated by the circulation-enhanced electrokinetics and phytoremediation in field scale.

Some agricultural lands have been contaminated by heavy metals in Taiwan for several decades, because the irrigation system was polluted by wastewater. In this study, a circulation-enhanced electrokinetics (CEEK) and phytoremediation were applied alternately to the real lead-contaminated site. In the beginning, the CEEK was used; then, the corn plants were raised.

A specific configuration of circulation-enhanced electrokinetics (CEEK) to remediate real-site Cd and Pb contaminated soils.

This study applied circulation-enhanced electrokinetics (CEEK) technique to remove Cd and Pb from the real-site contaminated soils. Soil samples were collected in certain polluted agricultural land in Yunlin, Taiwan. The CEEK system mainly composed of a reactor fulfilling soil samples, one pair of electrodes, a circulation system of working solution and DC power supply.

Electrocatalytic characterization and dye degradation of nano-TiO2 electrode films fabricated by CVD.

A 20-40 nm anatase-titania film on a titanium electrode was fabricated using chemical vapor deposition (CVD). The film was characterized using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The CVD deposition time and number of deposition coatings were evaluated to establish the appropriate film fabrication parameters.

[African origin of Chinese domestic donkeys].

Analysis of the 367 mtDNA D-loop sequences (of which 241 sequences were collected from literature) of 399 bp in 13 Chinese domestic donkey breeds revealed 96 different haplotypes with 57 polymorphic sites. The haplotype diversity and the nucleotide diversity were 0.767-0.
