Persulfate (PS)-based oxidation technologies are attracting increasing attentions in water treatment due to their high efficiency and stability. In this study, a novel diatomite supported MnCeO composite (MnCeO/diatomite) was prepared and characterized for activation of PS to degrade organic pollutants. Results indicated that diatomite not only dispersed MnCeO and increased the specific surface area of catalyst, but also improved the low-valence metal site (Mn and Ce) and reactive oxygen species site (-OH) of MnCeO, thus enhancing the activities of MnCeO. MnCeO/diatomite/PS showed high efficiency for multiple dyes and pharmaceutical pollutants. Constant rate (k) of MnCeO/diatomite (k) was three times higher than the sum of constant rate of MnCeO (k) and constant rate of diatomite (k). In addition, MnCeO/diatomite showed wide pH application (5-9). Cl and NO had no effect while SO and humid acid had slightly negative effects on MnCeO/diatomite/PS system. Moreover, MnCeO/diatomite showed good reusability and stability. Mechanism analyses indicated that electron transfer of Mn and Ce attributed to the activation of PS and oxygen to produce free radicals. SO, OH and O on the surface of catalyst were the main active free radicals to attack pollutants.

Background: With the approval of several anti-amyloid antibodies and a robust pipeline of new amyloid-based therapies, attention turns towards questions related to real-world clinical practice. Here we explore the impact of several biological pathways on the amyloid biomarker response of AD patients using a Quantitative Systems Pharmacology (QSP) approach with the ultimate objective to find measurable biomarkers for responder identification.
Method: Using a well-validated QSP biophysically realistic model of amyloid aggregation, we performed sensitivity analysis to identify key drivers of amyloid biomarkers both in a longitudinal observational context and after treatment with specific amyloid antibodies.

It is required to have a more straightforward and easier way to check the quality of food to ensure the safety of the public heaths. The decomposition of meat protein results in ammonia and biogenic amines (BAs). Here, we have designed and synthesized three luminescent-based probe molecules, which originated from 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl) benzothiazole (HBT) derivatives and showed the excited state-induced proton transfer (ESIPT) phenomenon.

Background: Black/African Americans in the Deep South have been subjected to social segregation, discrimination, and other forms of systematic injustices that continue to negatively impact this population's social determinants of health (SDoH). Healthy People 2030 has outlined a framework describing how adverse SDoH are associated with health inequities including higher rates of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). Historically, it has been challenging to recruit citizens from this region to participate in brain aging-related research studies.

Background: Prophylactic parenteral administration of antibiotics is strongly recommended to prevent surgical site infection (SSI). Cefoxitin is mainly administered intravenously in colorectal surgery. The current standard method for administering prophylactic antibiotics in adults is to administer a fixed dose quickly before skin incision.

The use of 3D-printed electrodes is reported fabricated from in-house conductive filament composed of a mixture of recycled poly (lactic acid) (rPLA), graphite (Gpt), and carbon black (CB) for fast detection of the abused drug ketamine. Firstly, the performance of these electrodes was evaluated in comparison to 3D-printed electrodes produced employing a commercially available conductive filament. After a simple pretreatment step (mechanical polishing), the new 3D-printed electrodes presented better performance than the electrodes produced from commercial filament in relation to peak-to-peak separation of the redox probe [Fe(CN)]/ (130 mV and 759 mV, respectively), charge transfer resistance (R = 1.
