Removal of Pb(II) ions and malachite green dye from wastewater by activated carbon produced from lemon peel

open access: yesQuímica Nova, 2014
In the present study, a high-surface area activated carbon was prepared by chemical activation of lemon peel with H3PO4 as the active agent. Then, the adsorption behavior of Malachite green dye and Pb(II) ions on the produced activated carbon was studied.

Medicine for the Material World

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT It is clear that many of the inorganic materials of antiquity have been used both as medicines for human ills and also as agents in technological processes. This paper speculates that there might have been a stronger link between these two functions in the past, based on the concept of “active agents”—materials that are efficacious at curing ...

Deciphering the properties and reaction mechanism of anhydromevalonate phosphate decarboxylase, a prenylated flavin mononucleotide‐dependent enzyme in the archaeal mevalonate pathway

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Characterization of anhydromevalonate phosphate decarboxylase, the UbiD‐family decarboxylase involved in the archaeal mevalonate pathway, was conducted. The enzyme is responsible for the biosynthesis of isoprenoids, such as archaeal membrane lipids, respiratory quinones, and dolichols.

Biochemical phosphorus allocation is linked to photosynthetic phosphorus‐use efficiency in a phosphorus‐impoverished environment

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Highly efficient phosphorus (P)‐use strategies have evolved in plants, allowing them to thrive in severely P‐impoverished environments. However, it remains unclear how allocating leaf P to biochemical fractions, including specific P‐containing metabolites, contributes to instantaneous photosynthetic P‐use efficiency (iPPUE) and the position of ...
