An innovative and versatile functional colorimetric sensor for melamine (MA) and H(2)O(2) was developed with simplicity, excellent selectivity and ultrasensitivity. The detection mechanism was based on the "oxidative etching-aggregation" of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) by the cooperation effect of MA and

Up-regulation of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and altered cholesterol (CH) metabolism are characteristic of Alzheimer-diseased neural tissues. The liver X receptor (LXR) is a molecular sensor of CH homeostasis. In the current study, we determined the effects of HO-1 over-expression and

The red Fe(2+)-phenanthroline complex is the basis of a classical spectrophotometric method for determination of iron. Due to the toxicity of this complexing agent, direct disposal of the wastewaters generated in analytical laboratories is not environmentally safe. This work evaluates
Fenton-driven oxidation of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) (0.11-0.16mM) in batch reactors containing ferric iron (5mM) and hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) (6mM) (pH=3) was performed to investigate MTBE transformation mechanisms. Independent variables included the forms of iron (Fe) (Fe(2)(SO(4))(3).9H(2)O and Fe(NO(3))(3).9H(2)O), H(2)O(2)
This study investigated Fenton and Fenton-like reactions at low iron concentration (<or==10 mg l-1) to oxidize three commercial azo dyes, namely Red MX-5B, Reactive Black 5 and Orange G. In some local cases in Taiwan, wastewater color was found to
