CuO nanoparticles anchored on carbon for the efficient removal of propofol from operating room wastewater peroxymonosulfate activation: efficiency, mechanism, and pathway.

Anesthetic drug wastage has increasingly become the main resource of operating room sewage, which poses a great risk to the safety of humans and other organisms. Propofol is the most widely used anesthetic drug in the world, and also occupies the largest proportion of the total anesthetic wastage in the operating room. In this work, a 2D CuO anchored carbon catalyst (CuO@NC) was prepared by the assembly-pyrolysis process and successfully applied to peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation.

Short-Chain Fatty Acid Decreases the Expression of CEBPB to Inhibit miR-145-Mediated DUSP6 and Thus Further Suppresses Intestinal Inflammation.

Intestinal inflammation is a common disease which can further lead to inflammatory bowel disease and even intestinal cancer. The increasing focus has come to the role of short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) in various bowel diseases. Hence, this study was designed to explore the specific role of SCFA in intestinal inflammation.
