Utilization of polyphenylene sulfide as an organic additive to enhance gas separation performance in polysulfone membranes.

Many studies have shown that sulfur-containing compounds significantly affect the solubility of carbon dioxide (CO) in adsorption processes. However, limited attention has been devoted to incorporating organic fillers containing sulfur atoms into gas separation membrane matrices. This study addressed the gap by developing a new membrane using a polysulfone (PSf) polymer matrix and polyphenylene sulfide (PPs) filler material.

Performance of a membrane fabricated from high-density polyethylene waste for dye separation in water.

Industrial growth can have a good impact on a country's economic growth, but it can also cause environmental problems, including water pollution. About 80% of industrial wastewater is discharged into the environment without treatment, of which 17-20% is dominated by dyes, such as methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO) from the textile industry. Only about 5% of a textile dye is used in the dyeing process and the rest is discarded.

Haematological Features of White Rats Infected with and Administered with Probiotics (Yogurt).

This study aimed to study the inhibition activity of lactic acid bacteria probiotics deriving from Acehnese fermented Etawa goat's milk (yogurt) against bacterial infection in rats (). Haematological analysis of the rats' blood was performed on the following parameters: platelets, leukocytes, lymphocytes, neutrophils, and monocytes, where the data were further processed using ANOVA and Duncan's test with a confidence level of 95% (0.05).
