Oxidative treatment of a cationic dye solution, methylene blue, was investigated using magnetite nanoparticles and goethite in heterogeneous Fenton-like reaction, and ferrous ions in homogeneous Fenton-reaction. The aim was to compare the degradation efficiencies of the studied catalysts for decolorization of methylene blue solution as the model organic pollutant. Response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to determine the optimal operational conditions for magnetite/H2O2 and goethite/H2O2 systems. The [H2O2] of 0.2 M, catalyst dosage of 1 g/L, pH 9.0 and reaction time of 5h were chosen by RSM. The pH value of 3.0 was used in the case of Fe+2/H2O2 system. The experimental results showed that homogeneous Fenton oxidation system was the most effective system under both acidic and neutral conditions but decreased at pH value of 9.0 due to the decrease in available Fe2+ ions in the solution and generation of ferric hydroxide sludge. Fe3O4/H2O2 system represented better removal efficiency than FeO(OH)/H2O2 system that could be attributed to the presence of FeII cations in magnetite structure and its larger surface area.

P2X7 is an extracellular adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP)-gated cation channel that plays various roles in inflammation and immunity. P2X7 is present on peripheral blood monocytes, dendritic cells (DCs), and innate and adaptive lymphocytes. The anti-human P2X7 monoclonal antibody (mAb; clone L4), used for immunolabelling P2X7 or blocking P2X7 activity, is a murine IgG2 antibody, but its ability to mediate complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) is unknown.

Dye-zeolite nanomaterials are promising candidates for neurotransmitter detection, however, their sensing mechanism has remained speculative. Using molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations, we demonstrate that water molecules play a critical role in stabilizing complexes formed between the dicationic dye and cationic neurotransmitters within the zeolite framework. This interaction exhibits binding motifs akin to those in protein-ligand complexes rather than conventional host-guest systems.

Adsorbents with high selectivity and adsorption capacity are of significant interest for the removal of dye pollutants. Herein, we report a facile low-temperature solvothermal synthesis of clew-like CuO/CuO microspheres by using cupric acetate monohydrate as the copper resource and ethylene glycol as the solvent and morphology modulator. The synthesized CuO/CuO microspheres showed high selective adsorption to anionic dyes (e.

The sonochemical synthesis of a chitosan-ZnO/FeO nanocomposite yielded a highly porous structure and large surface area for enhancing the photocatalytic degradation of cationic (rhodamine B, RhB) and anionic (methyl orange, MO) dyes in aqueous solution. Chitosan-ZnO/FeO demonstrated a significant enhancement in photodegradation efficiency 99.49% for MO ( = 5.
