Effect of preparation and reaction conditions on the performance of In/H-Beta for selective catalytic reduction of NO with CH.

In/H-Beta catalyst was prepared by optimizing the support, concentration of ion exchange liquid and calcination temperature to investigate the effects of synthesis conditions on catalytic activity of selective catalytic reduction of NO with CH. The results showed that the In/H-Beta catalyst exhibited the superior activity when concentration of exchange liquid was 0.033 M and calcination temperature was 500 °C, the NO removal ratio could reach 97.

Interaction studies of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) with human serum albumin (HSA): Molecular docking investigations.

This work has evaluated the interactions of HSA and typical PBDEs (BDE47, BDE99, BDE100, BDE153 and BDE209) at molecular level by modelling. Apart from the BDE209, PBDEs with higher molecular weight show higher binding energy with the residues of HSA. The BDE209 without H atoms has the lowest binding energy (-ΔG: 4.

In vitro cytotoxicity of decabrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE-209) to human red blood cells (hRBCs).

This work presents the effect of decabrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE-209) on the anti-oxidative defense capacity, and ATPase activity (structure and function) of human red blood cells (hRBCs). The results show that the PBDE-209 influences the activity and content of typical biomolecules (SOD, CAT, GSH-Px, GSH and MDA) in hRBCs, causing a decline in the function of the antioxidant defense system. The PBDE-209 with a concentration of 10 μmol/L resulted in the cytoplasmic projections and structure deformation of the hRBCs.
