AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Understanding decontamination technology as it applies to compounding sterile preparations and its role in achieving an acceptable level of sterility assurance in compounded preparations is essential. Delivering safe preparations to patients requires the key elements that make up an acceptable sterility-assurance level. Those key elements are decontamination of the preparation components and the environment in which they are compounded, aseptic technique, and proper air quality of the compounding environment. This article explores the concept of sterility assurance as it applies to sterile preparations.

Traditional meat preservation techniques such as smoking, drying, and salting have various shortcomings and limitations in effectively reducing microbial loads and maintaining meat quality. Consequently, chemical compounds have gained attention as promising alternatives for decontamination, offering the potential to extend shelf life and minimize physical, chemical, and sensory changes in meat. Chlorine-based compounds, trisodium phosphate, organic acids, bacteriocins, lactoferrin, and peracetic acid are technologies of recent industrial applications that inhibit spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms in meat.

This article reviews the role of membrane systems in treating palm oil mill effluent (POME), a waste generated by the palm industry. The review focuses on various membrane systems such as microfiltration (MF), ultrafiltration (UF), nanofiltration (NF), and reverse osmosis (RO), highlighting their effectiveness in removing pollutants and recovering water. Special attention is given to hybrid systems integrating membrane bioreactors (MBRs) and other advanced processes to enhance fouling control, improve water quality, and promote sustainability.

Introduction: Microbial contamination remains a vital challenge across the food production chain, particularly due to mycotoxins-secondary metabolites produced by several genera of fungi such as , and . These toxins, including aflatoxins, fumonisins, ochratoxins, and trichothecenes (nivalenol, deoxynivalenol, T2, HT-2). These contaminants pose severe risks to human and animal health, with their potential to produce a variety of different toxic effects.

Researching disinfection strategies is pivotal because effectively eliminating bacteria and their byproducts during root canal treatment (RCT) remains a challenge. This study investigated the antimicrobial efficacy of natural antimicrobial compounds, propolis (PRO) and copaiba oil-resin (COR), compared to conventional agents in Endodontics. Antimicrobials were tested against endodontic pathogens via macrodilution with standardized inoculums to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC).

Herein, novel hollow ZnO and ZnO@SnInS core-shell nanorods (NRs) with controlled shell thickness were developed via a facile synthesis approach for the efficient photocatalytic remediation of organic as well inorganic water pollutants. The introduction of SnInS shell layer coating over ZnO enhances visible light absorption, efficient exciton-mediated direct charge transfer, and reduces the band gap of ZnO@SnInS core-shell nanorods. The ZnO@SnInS core-shell nanorods show efficient solar-light driven catalytic efficiency for the disintegration of industrial dye (orange G), degradation of tetracycline, and reduction of hazardous Cr (VI) ions in aquatic systems.
