Abstract It is known that carbonhydrates are precursors of all bioactive substances we tried in thes paper work to do some investigation on these substances in the environmental area of Iasi. To observe the influence of some chemical mutagens substances on carbohydrates biosynthesis we conducted investigations on plant material (leaves) taken from the Calendula officinalis L species. We used this assay to examine the effects of the herbicide 2,4- dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), etidium br...

The most important argument of this experiment was to demonstrate an increased content of active principles under the influence of some substances (considered in the literature as mutagene), when used in low concentration, do not affect the environment. The purpose of this study was the selection of some treatment variants, which, during the experimentations show the same biosynthetic potential, stabilized or increased. The substances used in the experiment were ethidium bromide at the concentra...

AbstractThe adsorption of hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) by modified meerschaum was studied. The comparison of the meerschaummodified by anion and cation surfactant was conducted to explore their effect on HCH adsorption. The results showed that theabsorbability of HCH by the CTMAB-M (cetyltrimethylammonium bromide-modified) is better than that of SAS-M (sodiumdodecyl sulphonate-modified) because the CTMAB-M has fluffier fibers structure. The addition of amount of adsorbents shouldimprove the adsor...

The remarkable photocatalytic properties of titanium dioxide and the high adsorption capacity of the mesoporous materials were combined to obtain active photocatalysts for the decomposition of Rhodamine 6G dye. The mesoporous TiO2 was obtained by the controlled hydrolysis-condensation of titanium isopropoxide, using hexadecyl-trimethyl-ammonium bromide as template, followed by calcination to remove the organic matter. Subsequently, this sample was doped with sodium wolframate and platinum. T...

Three modified bentonites, hydroxy-aluminum pillared bentonite (Al(OH)-Bent), cetyl trimethylammonium bromide modified bentonite (CTAB-Bent), and both cetyl trimethylammonium bromide and hydroxy-aluminum modified bentonite (Al(OH)-CTAB-Bent) were prepared and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis. Batch experiments were conducted on the adsorption of phenol at different temperatures, pH and initial concentration. The results indicated that adsorption capacity o...

This study evaluated the performances of adsorption and Fenton oxidation for the removal of multilan red (MLR) and multi-active blue (MActB) dyes from aqueous solution. Zeolite, the adsorbent used in the study was modified using two surfactants: hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (HDTMA-Br) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). The modified zeolite characterized using FTIR, SEM and XRD analysis. The modification studies revealed that HDTMA-modified zeolite exhibited better performance than ...

The mesoporous MCM-48 was synthesized at room temperature with different templates such as hexadecytrimethylammonium bromide (C16TABr), hexadecytrimethylammonium chloride (C16TACl) and dodecyltrimethlammonium chloride (C12TACl). The obtained materials were characterized by XRD, N2 adsorption/desorption, FTIR and SEM techniques, and their performance as uranium adsorbent were investigated. In this framework, the effect of contact time, pH of solution, initial uranium concentration and temperat...
