The effects of stirring speed, carrier concentration and reaction temperature on the transport of Pb(II) ion through bulk liquid membrane were studied with chloroform as membrane solvent and 2-ethylhexyl phosphonic acid-mono-2-ethylhexylester as carrier. The Pb(II) ions concentrations of feed phase and stripping phase were assayed by atomic absorption spectroscopy. The kinetic parameters, including apparent rate constants of Pb(II) ion extraction and re-extraction reactions, the maximum concentration of Pb(II) ion in the liquid membrane, the time of the maximum value of maximum concentration of Pb(II) ion in the liquid membrane and the maximum entry and exit fluxes of Pb(II) ion through the liquid membrane of the extraction and stripping reactions, were evaluated. The apparent activation energy value is 31.65 kJ x mol(-1) for extraction and 23.11 kJ mol(-1) for stripping. The results indicate that good agreement between experimental data and theoretical predictions could be achieved and the kinetics of Pb(II) transport could be evaluated by two consecutive irreversible pseudo-first order reactions. In this condition the chemical reaction is a procedure of controlled reaction rates.

Despite the importance of ocular surface in human physiology and diseases, little is known about ion channel expression, properties and regulation in ocular epithelial cells. Furthermore, human primary epithelial cells have rarely been studied in favor of rat, mouse and especially rabbit animal models. Here, we developed primary human Meibomian gland (hMGEC) and conjunctival (hConEC) epithelial cells.

Purpose: Mitoxantrone (MTX) is largely restricted in clinical usage due to its significant cardiotoxicity. Multiple studies have shown that an imbalance in the gut-heart axis plays an important role in the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). We aim to explore the possible correlations between gut microbiota (GM) compositions and cardiometabolic (CM) disorder in MTX-triggered cardiotoxicity mice.

More than 90% of spermatozoa of boars in pork producing countries is stored in liquid at 17 °C; however, the quality of these spermatozoa is affected by bacterial breeding and oxidative damage. This study analyzed sperm quality and sperm capacitation after storage to study the effects of the effects of ZnO nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) supplementation on seminal plasma (SP)-free sperm preservation. We investigated the effects of adding 20, 50, 100 and 200 μg/mL of ZnO NPs to a seminal free boar sperm diluent over a 7-day period at 17 °C to assess the changes in non-capacitated/capacitated sperm quality parameters, antioxidant capacity, ATP content and extent of protein tyrosine phosphorylation.

Untreated waste liquid mixtures often support large bacterial populations, posing challenges to effective purification due to high volume and limited filtration efficiency. This study aims to develop a multifunctional filtration membrane that combines both filtration and sterilization, enhancing overall purification efficiency. Using electrospinning technology, we fabricated a superhydrophilic, oil-repellent membrane by integrating the hydrophilic properties of chitosan, antibacterial N-halamine groups, and the mechanical strength of cellulose nanocrystals (CNC).

The bioactive peptides in Jinhua ham could be released into the broth during cooking. After comparing peptide antibacterial activity from Jinhua ham broth with varying cooking durations, the cooking-2-h broths were selected for further analysis using cation-exchange and reverse-phase-liquid chromatography. The purified peptide sequences were subsequently synthesized and tested for their antibacterial activity.
