Amide molybdate has been recently introduced as a friction modifier for tribological applications. Combined with zinc dithiophosphate (ZDDP) and fatty amines, it provides an ultralow friction coefficient. The ultimate product of Mo compound transformations in tribological contact, due to frictional heating and shearing, as well as chemical interactions with oil additives, is molybdenum sulfide (MoS). Understanding the decomposition of amide molybdate leading to MoS is of primary importance to the optimization of the design of lubricant formulations. This study focuses on the investigation by Raman spectroscopy of amide molybdate decomposition intermediates. Raman spectra of tribofilms, obtained after friction tests under different temperatures and pressures, revealed the formation of an amorphous MoS intermediate coexisting with MoS. However, under severe conditions, the tribofilms are mostly composed of MoS.

In this work, a simple and sensitive electrochemical sensor was proposed for the detection of β-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) activity. Firstly, the BACE1 specific peptide was modified onto the Au electrode to graft a single-strand DNA with polycytosine DNA sequence (dC) via amide bonding between peptide and dC. Because the dC is abundant in phosphate groups, thus it can react with molybdate to form redox molybdophosphate, which can generate electrochemical current.

Objective: To study the protective effect of electroacupuncture (EA) at "Biao"-acupoints, "Fenglong"(ST40) and "Zhongwan"(CV12), used for treating symptoms of the disease, and "Ben"-acupoints, "Zusanli"(ST36) and "Guanyuan"(CV4), for treating the root cause of the disease on oxidative stress injury of renal mitochondria through SIRT1/PGC-1α signal pathway in rats with diabetic nephropathy (DN).
Methods: A total of 33 male Wistar rats were randomized into normal (=10), model (=12) and EA (=11) groups.The DN model was established by feeding the rats with high-sugar and high-fat diet for 6 weeks combined with streptozotocin (STZ, 35 mg/kg, i.

There is a need to synthesize eco-friendly nanoparticles with more effective and potent antibacterial activities. A green and cost-effective method for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using , , and extracts was developed. The analytical instrumentation, namely, UV/Vis, absorption spectroscopy, FTIR, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), was used to determine the developed AgNPs, confirming the functional groups involved in their reduction.

Water pollution by organic dyes poses great challenge to the environment and living organism. Hence effective removal of organic dyes by cost effective methods have received significant attention in recent years. Herein, we report the complete removal of organic dyes (rhodamine B), methylene blue) and eosin yellow) from water via effective adsorption by MoO catalyst.

The prepared Fe3O4nanoparticles by coprecipitation of Fe2+ and Fe3+ ions were treated with tetraethyl orthotitanate to obtain Fe3O4@TiO2. By anchoring 3-chloropropyltriethoxysilan on Fe3O4@TiO2 followed by reacting with molybdic acid, the desired catalyst was produced.
