A method for the determination of phenol, bisphenol A (BPA), 2,4-dichlorophenol in water samples based on solid-phase extraction with microemulsion liquid chromatography (MELC) was established. The water sample was acidified, and then cleaned-up by a C18 solid phase extraction cartridge. The separation was carried out on an Inertsil C18 (150 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 microm) with a gradient elution using a microemulsion (consisting of 3.0% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), 6.0% butyl alcohol, 0.8% n-heptane, 90.2% (water + 0.5% acetic acid)) and acetonitrile as mobile phases at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min and a detection wavelength of 280 nm. The detection limits (S/N = 3) of phenol, BPA, 2,4-dichlorophenol were 0.74, 8.0, 8.0 microg/L, respectively. Good linearities were achieved for the target compounds over the range of 0.1 - 10 mg/L. The spiked recoveries of three phenolic compounds in blank water samples) were 82.7%, 87.8%, 82.6% for phenol, BPA, 2,4-dichlorophenol respectively. The recoveries of target compounds in real water samples ranged from 85.7% to 113.2%. The developed method is simple, selective, sensitive and applicable for the analysis of environmental water samples.

Objective: To evaluate the effects of different SARS-CoV-2 inactivation methods on the blood concentration of colistin sulfate.
Methods: A colistin sulfate reference substance, a quality control plasma sample, and a clinically measured sample were transferred and heated in a 56 °C water batch for 30 min or irradiated under an ultraviolet (UV) lamp for 60 min to examine the stability of the reference solution and quality control plasma sample. Statistical analysis was conducted for the concentration of the clinically measured sample before and after inactivation with the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) method, the Passing-Bablok regression, and the Bland-Altman analysis.
Time-resolved fluorescence measurements of dissolved organic matter (DOM) as a function of environmental parameters in estuarine waters.

Fluorescent lifetimes of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and associated physicochemical parameters were measured over 14 months in an estuary in Southern California, USA. Measurements were made on 77 samples from sites near the inlet, mid-estuary, and outlet to maximize the range of physicochemical variables. Time-resolved fluorescence data were well fit to a triexponential model with an intermediate lifetime component (τ: 1 to 5 ns), a long lifetime component (τ: 2 to 15 ns), and a short lifetime component (τ: < 1 ns).

The two-stage channel (TSC) design with a vegetated man-made floodplain has been recommended as an alternative to conventional re-dredging for managing suspended sediment (SS) and nutrient loads in agricultural streams. However, there are currently uncertainties surrounding the efficiency of TSCs, since mass balances covering the whole annual hydrograph and including different periods of the channel life cycle are lacking. This paper aims to improve understanding of the medium-term morphological development and sedimentary nutrient retention when a dredged, trapezoidal-shaped channel is converted into a TSC, using a mass balance estimate of nutrient and carbon retention from immediately after excavation until the establishment of approximate biogeochemical equilibrium retention.

The world is now facing a water scarcity crisis due to waste, pollution, and uneven distribution of freshwater resources, which are limited. Thus, the creation of innovative, economical, and effective methods for purifying water is crucial. Here, the photo-assisted degradation of methylene blue (MB) dye under visible light and UV was achieved by using RGO photocatalyst loaded with ZnCuFeO in three different loaded 10%, 20%, and 30% called MRGO 10, MRGO 20, and MRGO 30.
