Unlabelled: The removal efficiency of the pharmaceutical drug Mebeverine Hydrochloride (MEB) from solutions by an activated carbon (AC) prepared from dates stems was investigated in the present research work. The surface properties of the activated carbon were investigated by elementary analysis, BET surface area, SEM, FTIR and pH. The operating parameters effect on the MEB adsorption efficiency was investigated by using batch experiments. The adsorption isotherms study indicated that the experimental data were well described by Freundlich and DR isotherms, with the maximum adsorption capacity (q) of 4105 mg/g. This result suggests the multilayer adsorption of MEB on the activated carbon.

Adsorption seemed like an excellent physicochemical process employed for wastewater treatment. In the last few decades, significant improvements have been made in efficiency and economy to remove contaminants from wastewater using several adsorbents. However, less attention was paid to the regeneration of used adsorbents.

Chemocatalytic synthesis of lactic acid (LA) from biomass sugars involves heat-absorbing multistep cascade reactions mediated by different active sites, often encountering unsatisfactory selectivity. Here, a hole-localized carbon nitride-based photocatalyst (C-CNN) is constructed by covalent binding of heptazine and triazole skeleton via C─N bonds and further conjugated interaction with activated carbon, achieving the complete conversion of various biomass sugars to LA (up to 98.6% selectivity) at room temperature for 2 h.

Smads and their transcription factor partners mediate the transcriptional responses of target cells to secreted ligands of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) family, including those of the conserved bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) family, yet only a small number of direct target genes have been well characterized. In the BMP2/4 ortholog DBL-1 regulates multiple biological functions, including body size, via a canonical receptor-Smad signaling cascade. Here, we identify functional binding sites for SMA-3/Smad and its transcriptional partner SMA-9/Schnurri based on ChIP-seq peaks (identified by modEncode) and expression differences of nearby genes identified from RNA-seq analysis of corresponding mutants.

The ecological vulnerability and extreme physicochemical properties of tailings in high-altitude mining areas pose challenges to the ecological restoration of tailings. Therefore, the aims of the current study were to remediate tailings in high-altitude mining areas by combining ryegrass () and activated carbon. Ryegrass potting experiments with Cu and Pb-Zn tailings and the two tailings amended with activated carbon.
