Evaluation of in vitro toxicity of common phytochemicals included in weight loss supplements using 1H NMR spectroscopy

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We investigated the toxicity of 12 active compounds commonly found in herbal weight loss supplements (WLS) using human liver and colon cell models. Epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate was the only compound showing significant toxicity. Metabolic profiling revealed protein degradation, disrupted energy and lipid metabolism suggesting that the inclusion of EGCG ...

Removal of benzene, MTBE and toluene from contaminated waters using biochar-based liquid activated carbon

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Fuel components such as benzene, toluene, and methyl tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE) are frequently detected pollutants in groundwater resources. Ex-situ remediation technologies by activated carbon have been used for treatment for many years.

Optimization of conditions for the preparation of activated carbon from olive stones for application in gold recovery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The purpose of this study is to prepare a new activated carbon from olive stones for use in gold recovery by carbon-in-leach (CIL) and carbon-in-pulp (CIP). The preparation method chosen was physical activation using steam.

Pioglitazone plus (−)‐epigallocatechin gallate: a novel approach to enhance osteogenic performance in aged bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Aged human bmMSCs are seeded in the scaffold. Osteoblastic induction can slightly increase cell's bone‐forming activity to produce bone‐like tissues, shown as the sporadic xylenol orange‐stained spots (the lower left image). Notably, pioglitazone plus EGCG co‐treatment dramatically increases cell's bone‐forming activity and bone‐like tissue production (

Influencing Factors of the Carbon Adsorption Properties of Radon

open access: yesJournal of Isotopes, 2018
In order to prevent the indoor radon from being harmful to human health, it is necessary to accurately measure the indoor air radon concentration. Among them, the activated carbon box is one of the commonly used methods, but its accurate measurement is ...

Process for purification of waste water produced by a Kraft process pulp and paper mill [PDF]

open access: yes, 1979
The water from paper and pulp wastes obtained from a mill using the Kraft process is purified by precipitating lignins and lignin derivatives from the waste stream with quaternary ammonium compounds, removing other impurities by activated carbon produced

dUTPase is essential in zebrafish development and possesses several single‐nucleotide variants with pronounced structural and functional consequences

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
dUTPases are involved in balancing the appropriate nucleotide pools. We showed that dUTPase is essential for normal development in zebrafish. The different zebrafish genomes contain several single‐nucleotide variations (SNPs) of the dut gene. One of the dUTPase variants displayed drastically lower protein stability and catalytic efficiency as compared ...

Low frequency sound propagation in activated carbon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Activated carbon can adsorb and desorb gas molecules onto and off its surface. Research has examined whether this sorption affects low frequency sound waves, with pressures typical of audible sound, interacting with granular activated carbon. Impedance
