Carcinostatic effects of combined use of hydrogen nano-bubbles (nano-H) and platinum-povidone (PVP--Pt) were examined. Hydrogen-dissolved medium was prepared by hydrogen-gas bubbling with a microporous gas-emittance-terminal into a medium in the absence or presence of PVP-Pt (nano-H, nano-H/PVP-Pt). Human esophagus-derived carcinoma cells KYSE70 were repressed for cell proliferation with nano-H/PVP-Pt more markedly than with nano-H, indicating the hydrogen-intensification for PVP-Pt-alone-carcinostasis. However, the intensified carcinostasis required co-administration of nano-H and PVP-Pt, and no intensified carcinostasis was shown in two-step separate administration of nano-H and PVP-Pt. Furthermore, hydrogen bubbling into PVP-Pt-containing medium achieved more appreciable carcinostasis than mere addition of PVP-Pt into nano-H-containing medium, indicating the potent interaction of hydrogen and PVP-Pt. The nano-H/PVP-Pt-administered human tongue-derived carcinoma cells HSC-4 were repressed for cell proliferation more markedly than pre-malignant human tongue-derived epitheliocytes DOK, concurrently with more abundant intracellular Pt-intake into HSC-4 cells than DOK as analyzed by ICP-MS. Thus, PVP-Pt is able to adsorb hydrogen nano-bubbles on Pt and applicable for cancer therapy by diminishing the side-effects to normal cells.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the combined effects of hydrodynamic cavitation and Fenton-like oxidation using a Ce-MnFeO catalyst to enhance the removal of Bisphenol A (BPA) from water.
  • It was found that cavitation bubbles facilitate the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by altering the activation barriers for the oxidation process, which enhances the pollutant degradation pathway.
  • The system achieved high removal efficiencies of chemical oxygen demand (95%) and total organic carbon (65%) at a low energy and operational cost, showcasing its potential for treating contaminated water.

Fabricating an adsorbent and micro-nano bubble catalyst through confining maghemite in the β cage of NaY zeolite.

Chemosphere

February 2024

Research Group of Environmental Catalysis & Separation Process, College of Chemical Engineering, Beijing University of Chemical Technology, Beijing, 100029, PR China. Electronic address:

This work reports the ion exchange fabrication of maghemite (γ-FeO) modified NaY zeolite (FeO@Y) with bifunction of adsorption and catalysis. The Fe successfully replaced the Na in the β cage of zeolite in the ion exchange process and coordinated with framework oxygens to form magnetic γ-FeO. Therefore, most of the γ-FeO particles were confined in the β cages, which resulted in the high dispersal and stability of the catalyst.

Continuation of a cleaning process: Application of MNBs-coagulation process to mitigate ultrafiltration membrane fouling.

Water Res

February 2024

Electronic address:

The MNBs-coagulation process as a novel and cleaning enhanced coagulation process has been demonstrated to enhance the removal efficiency of hydrophilic organics. In this study, while continuing the concept of cleaning production, the MNBs-coagulation process was first applied to the ultrafiltration process and was expected to alleviate the ultrafiltration membrane fouling. This study investigated the effect of the involvement of MNBs in coagulation-ultrafiltration process (the MC-UF process) on the fouling behaviour of ultrafiltration membrane based on the calculation of membrane resistance distribution and the fitting of membrane fouling model.

Synergistic Treatment of Congo Red Dye with Heat Treated Low Rank Coal and Micro-Nano Bubbles.

Molecules

June 2022

National Engineering Research Center of Coal Preparation and Purification, China University of Mining and Technology, Xuzhou 221008, China.

In this study, the adsorption method and micro-nano bubble (MNB) technology were combined to improve the efficiency of organic pollutant removal from dye wastewater. The adsorption properties of Congo red (CR) on raw coal and semi-coke (SC) with and without MNBs were studied. The mesoporosity of the coal strongly increased after the heat treatment, which was conducive to the adsorption of macromolecular organics, such as CR, and the specific surface area increased greatly from 2.
