The instability and rapid consumption of HO limit the application of UV/HO in water treatment. Recently, calcium peroxide (CaO) has been demonstrated as an effective source of HO. However, the performance and mechanism of UV/CaO are still unknown. Herein, UV/CaO and UV/HO were compared for degradation of aniline. The removal efficiency of aniline by UV/CaO was slightly lower than that by UV/HO, which could be attributed to the light scavenger by CaO suspended particles. HO‧ was identified to participate in aniline degradation in both UV/CaO and UV/HO, while O· was only involved in UV/CaO. The efficiency of aniline degradation in UV/CaO was affected by the released HO in the system. The release and decomposition rate of HO in UV/CaO system were influenced by the CaO dosage and reaction pH, but slightly related with water matrix. Excessive CaO would scavenge aniline degradation through the released HO to react with HO‧. Acidic condition would enhance the concentration of HO in UV/CaO and promote the degradation of aniline. Cl showed slight and almost no effect on aniline degradation in UV/CaO and UV/HO systems, respectively, while HCO scavenged aniline degradation in UV/CaO. NO inhibited aniline degradation in both UV/CaO and UV/HO. Compared to UV/HO, UV/CaO shows the similar efficiency on organics removal but conquers the limitations in UV/HO, which is a promising alternative choice in water treatment.

Background: Changes in cerebral blood flow (CBF) may contribute to the initial stages of the pathophysiological process in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Hypoperfusion has been observed in several brain regions in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). However, the clinical significance of CBF changes in the early stages of AD is currently unclear.

Efforts to reduce the impact of chemical processes on the environment are leading to a shift to enzymatic alternatives, with laccases standing out for their versatile substrate oxidation capabilities. This study addresses the improvement of biocatalytic reactions by deep eutectic solvents (DES), in particular DES-based aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS) for the extraction of biomolecules. Continuous laccase extraction from crude samples was achieved using a DES-based ATPS, which was first optimized in a batch extractor and later intensified in a microextractor.

Background: In neuroscience, Ca imaging is a prevalent technique used to infer neuronal electrical activity, often relying on optical signals recorded at low sampling rates (3 to 30 Hz) across multiple neurons simultaneously. This study investigated whether increasing the sampling rate preserves critical information that may be missed at slower acquisition speeds.

Methods: Primary neuronal cultures were prepared from the cortex of newborn pups.

The accumulation of aniline in the natural environment poses a potential threat to crops, and thus, investigating the effects of aniline on plants holds practical implications for agricultural engineering and its affiliated industries. This study combined physiological, transcriptomic, and metabolomic methods to investigate the growth status and molecular-level response mechanisms of rice under stress from varying concentrations of aniline. At a concentration of 1 mg/L, aniline exhibited a slight growth-promoting effect on rice.
