Performance of commercial polyamide membranes in pervaporation for dye removal: Impact of dye classes, colors, and surfactants

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Water reclamation in the textile industry is essential to reduce environmental impacts associated with high water consumption and pollutant discharge. Among emerging technologies, pervaporation (PV) has gained attention due to its high selectivity and efficiency in contaminant removal. However, there is still a lack of comprehensive

Efficient brine concentration of highly saline and hypersaline water using forward osmosis: A modeling study

open access: yesWater Resources and Industry
Treating highly saline water having total dissolved solids (TDS) of less than 35 g/L and hypersaline water having TDS of more than 70 g/L, are some of the pressing challenges in wastewater treatment. Brine concentration is one of the significant steps in

Analysis of Gene Expression in Aedes aegypti Suggests Changes in Early Genetic Control of Mosquito Development

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti, a critical vector for tropical diseases, poses significant challenges for studying its embryogenesis due to difficulties in removing its rigid chorion and achieving effective fixation for in situ hybridization. Here, we present novel methodologies for fixation, dechorionation, DAPI staining, and in situ hybridization, enabling ...

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

The Concentration of Aqueous Solutions By Osmotic Distillation (OD) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
This study was to investigate theory and application of Osmotic Distillation (OD). OD is a new novel membrane separation process used for the concentration of aqueous solutions such as fruit juices without the application of heat. The present work was

DEET‐cyclodextrin inclusion complexes for mosquito and tick repellency: Extended repellency time and no zebrafish embryotoxicity

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Hydroxypropyl‐β‐cyclodextrin (HPβCD)–N,N‐diethyl‐meta‐toluamide (DEET) complex extended tick repellency to 168 h. Full protection against Aedes aegypti for 7 h with HPβCD‐DEET. HPβCD reduced DEET release and skin retention significantly. No embryotoxicity observed below 325 mg L−1 in zebrafish model.
