Toxicity investigation of CeO2 nanoparticles coated with glucose and exopolysaccharides levan and pullulan on the bacterium Vibrio fischeri and aquatic organisms Daphnia magna and Danio rerio
(Elsevier, 2021)
Cerium oxide nanoparticles (nCeO2) have widespread applications, but they can be hazardous to the environment. Some reports indicate the toxic effect of nCeO2 on tested animals, but literature data are mainly contradictory. ...
Biodegradation of the aromatic fraction from petroleum diesel fuel by Oerskovia sp. followed by comprehensive GC x GC-TOF MS
(Elsevier, 2019)
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from petroleum and fossil fuels are one of the most dominant pollutants in the environment. Since aromatic fraction from petroleum diesel fuel is mainly composed of PAHs, it is ...
Production of levan by Bacillus licheniformis NS032 in sugar beet molasses-based medium
(Elsevier, 2019)
The production of levan by Bacillus licheniformis NS032 in a medium based on sugar beet molasses was studied. High polysaccharide yields were produced by using diluted molasses (100-140 g/L of total sugars) with the addition ...
Structural and electrochemical properties of the Li2FeP2O7/C composite prepared using soluble methylcellulose
(Elsevier, 2019)
A new method involving the homogeneous dispersion of precursor compounds inside a methylcellulose matrix is used for the synthesis of a composite powder of Li 2 FeP 2 O 7 and carbon. The properties of carbon-containing and ...
Degradation of α-nitroso-β-naphthol by UVA-B activated peroxide, persulfate and monopersulfate oxidants in water
(Elsevier, 2019)
Flotation reagents, especially new chelating agents represented by α-nitroso-β-naphthol, are the main components of cobalt mining drainage. This study reports the degradation of α-nitroso-β-naphthol by simulated UVA-B ...
Low-friction, wear-resistant, and electrically homogeneous multilayer graphene grown by chemical vapor deposition on molybdenum
(Elsevier, 2020)
Chemical vapour deposition (CVD) is a promising method for producing large-scale graphene (Gr). Nevertheless, microscopic inhomogeneity of Gr grown on traditional metal substrates such as copper or nickel results in a ...
Characterisation of the binding of dihydro-alpha-lipoic acid to fibrinogen and the effects on fibrinogen oxidation and fibrin formation
(Elsevier, 2020)
A reduced form of the alpha-lipoic acid, dihydro-alpha-lipoic acid (DHLA) is a potent, naturally occurring antioxidant which can be consumed as food constituent or as supplement at doses up to 600 mg/day. DHLA has inhibitory ...
Bacterial diversity in typical abandoned multi-contaminated nonferrous metal(loid) tailings during natural attenuation
(Elsevier, 2019)
Abandoned nonferrous metal(loid) tailings sites are anthropogenic, and represent unique and extreme ecological niches for microbial communities. Tailings contain elevated and toxic content of metal(loid)s that had negative ...
Dynamic stability of active sites in hydr(oxy)oxides for the oxygen evolution reaction
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020)
The poor activity and stability of electrode materials for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are the main bottlenecks in the water splitting reaction for H2 production. Here, by studying activity
stability trends for ...
Eliminating dissolution of platinum-based electrocatalysts at the atomic scale
(Nature Publishing Group, 2020)
A remaining challenge for deployment of proton-exchange membrane fuel cells is the
limited durability of Pt-nanoscale materials that operate at high voltages during the
cathodic oxygen reduction reaction. In this work, ...
