The two kinds of new nanocomposites BiVO4/TiO2 nanowires were synthesized by hydrothermal process. Their crystal structure, morphology and photocatalytic activities for degradation of methylene blue solution were characterized using various measurement techniques. The XRD results indicate that they are made up of monoclinic BiVO4 and anatase TiO2 phases. The SEM, TEM and HRTEM images show that the two samples include BiVO4 nanoparticles supported onto TiO2 nanowires. The UV-Vis absorption spectra reveal that the absorption edges of the samples exhibit red-shift in comparison with that of the pure TiO2 nanowires. The measurement results for the visible-light photodegradation of methylene blue show that the nanocomposite sample prepared from the layered titanate nanowires with Bi3+ has the highest photocatalytic activity.

Background: PAPP is widely used in Australia as a potent vertebrate bait, with potential for off-target ingestion and poisoning in domestic dogs. Whilst toxicosis and resulting methaemoglobinaemia is anecdotally known to occur, this is the first description in the literature. This study reports thirteen clinical cases of suspected Para-aminopropiophenone (PAPP) toxicity in dogs, with the aim of describing clinical presentation and current management of toxicosis in this species.

This study presents a facile one-pot synthesis method to fabricate BiFeO-BiFeO-BiO heterojunction photocatalysts with controllable compositions and pure phases. Three different binary heterojunctions (BiFeO/BiFeO, BiFeO/BiO, and BiFeO/BiO) and a ternary BiFeO/BiFeO/BiO heterojunction were formed, all exhibiting significantly enhanced photocatalytic performance for the degradation of methylene blue (MB) and phenol under visible light irradiation, outperforming the individual compositions. Notably, the BiFeO/BiFeO heterojunction achieved the highest degradation efficiency (93.

This study examined the feasibility of using natural rubber (NR) latex foam as a dye adsorbent and antibacterial foam. The dyes used in this experiment were Methylene Blue (MB) and Alizarin Yellow (AY). Foams with that optimum density were further evaluated for adsorption isotherm, kinetics, and thermodynamic data.

Purpose: Pathological nipple discharge (PND) is associated with malignancy. This study aimed to investigate the value of fiberoptic ductoscopy (FDS) and the feasibility of immediate injection of methylene blue after FDS to identify discharging ducts and intraductal lesions without overflow of methylene blue during surgery.
Methods: From May 2019 to December 2023, 164 PND patients were enrolled.
Chemical activation of cotton fibers with varied regents induces distinct morphology of activated carbon and adsorption capacity of methylene blue.

Some biomasses like cotton contain natural fibrous structures. This is a desirable structural feature for exposure of adsorption sites on cotton-derived activated carbon (AC). This was verified herein by conducting activation of cotton with ZnCl, HPO, KCO or KOH, probing whether structural transformation during activation could be confined inside a cotton fiber.
