The magnetic susceptibility and the density of human oxy-(HbO(2)) and carbonmonoxyhemoglobin (HbCO) solutions of various concentrations have been measured at room temperature, with pure water used as a calibrant. Solutions of unstripped and stripped HbO(2) at pH 7.2 in unbuffered water solvent were always found to be less diamagnetic than pure water, whereas solutions of HbCO in identical conditions were always found to be more diamagnetic than pure water. After correcting for concentration-dependent density changes and assuming the HbCO samples to be fully diamagnetic, the paramagnetic reduction of the diamagnetic susceptibility of HbO(2) corresponds to a molar susceptibility per heme (chi(M) (heme)) of 2460 +/- 600 x 10(-6) cgs/mol.

This paper investigates the efficient degradation of ciprofloxacin (CIP) in a sustainable γ-valerolactone (GVL) and water (H₂O) mixed system by controlling proton transfer and reducing the self-decay rate of Fe(VI). The kinetic model reveals that the GVL/H₂O system exhibits a rate constant of (9.7 ± 0.

Electro-bioremediation of exemplary water pollutants such as nitrogenous, phosphorous, and sulphurous compounds, hydrocarbons, metals and azo dyes has already been studied at a macro-scale level using mixed cultures. The technology has been generally established as a proof of concept at the technology readiness level (TRL) of 3, and there are already specific cases where the technology reached TRL 5. However, this technology is less utilized compared to traditional approaches.

Due to intrinsic defects in blue-light-emitting perovskite materials, the charge carriers are prone to being trapped by the trap states. Therefore, the preparation of efficient blue-light-emitting perovskite materials remains a significant challenge. Herein, CsPb(Cl/Br) nanocrystal (NCs)@SiO structures were fabricated through hydrolyzing (3-aminopropyl)-triethoxysilane (APTS).

The aim of the present paper is to propose an innovative, one-step and sustainable process allowing us to obtain almost 10 kg/week of pure and crystalline simonkolleite nanoparticles (SK NPs) in only 8 min of reaction, working in water, under ambient conditions of pressure/temperature, guaranteeing at the same time low environmental impact and a high yield of NP production. In addition, the obtained NPs can also act as ZnO precursors at ambient temperature, and this result supports the sustainability of the process considering that, generally, the production of ZnO from SK occurred via annealing at high temperatures. The SK NPs appeared pure and crystalline, characterized by a highly uniform hexagonal lamellar feature.
