Seven adsorbents were developed; raw shells (RPNS) and the thermally activated biomasses at six different temperatures (250–500 ◦C). Two measures were implemented to assess the performance of utilized adsorbents; %removal (%R) and adsorption capacity (qe). RPNS proved to be the best among the tested adsorbents. A smart approach, definitive-screening design (DSD) was operated to test the impact of independent variables on the adsorption capacity of RPNS. pH, adsorbent dose (AD), dye concentration (DC), and stirring time (ST), were the tested variables. Analysis of variance (ANOVA), control, and quality charts helped establishing regression model. Characterization was performed using Fourier- transform infrared (FT-IR)/Raman spectroscopies together with thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM)/energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) analyses. The surface area and other textural properties were determined using the Brunauer Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis. Removal of 99.71% of BF with an adsorption capacity of 118.2 mg/g could be achieved using a factorial blend of pH 12, 100 mg/50 mL of RPNS, and 250 ppm BF for 20 min. Equilibrium studies reveal that the adsorption is physisorption with adsorption energy of 7.45 kJ/mol as indicated by Dubinin-Radushkevich (DR) and Langmuir isotherms. Moreover, adsorption follows pseudo-second-order kinetics with respect to BF and is controlled by the adsorption rate.

Introduction With the progress of human life and the escalating anthropogenic activities, pollution of water has become a crucial environmental concern. Various contaminants are intimidating the aquatic system. These contaminants include, but not limited to, drugs and pharmaceuticals, heavy metals and anions, plastics and polymers, dyes and pigments, and pesticides [1]. Industries, particularly, textiles, leather, food, and cosmetics encompass using dyes with diverse chemical structures. Consequently, the discharge of these industries is basically ‘huge’ amounts of intensively colored wastewaters. Release of such an effluent into the receiving water bodies causes a direct mutilation of water quality in terms of the aesthetic properties (color, pH, salinity, total organic carbon (TOC), suspended solids, etc.). Such a change negatively impacts the ecosystem. Just thinking about the capability to restrain the photosynthetic ability of water plants and microorganisms, shows the magnitude of the problem. This effect is worsened by the diverse structure of these dyes and their resistance to biodegradation. The negative impact does only involve the environment but also extends to human health with reported carcinogenic activity [2–5]. Appl. Sci. 2019, 9, 4855; doi:10.3390/app9224855 www.mdpi.com/journal/applsci Appl. Sci. 2019, 9, 4855 2 of 19 Appl.

  • A Study of Rawitz's 'Inversion Staining' by ALEKSANDRA PRZEL^CKA
    231 A Study of Rawitz's 'Inversion Staining' By ALEKSANDRA PRZEL^CKA {From the Cytological Laboratory, Department of Zoology, University Museum, Oxford, and the Nencki Institute, 3 Pasteur St., Warsaw 22; present address, Nencki Institute) SUMMAHY The Rawitz method involves mordanting with tannic acid and potassium antimony tartrate, and staining with basic fuchsine. The mordanting causes basic fuchsine to act as though it were an acid dye ('inversion staining'). A modification of the method is described in the present paper. This modification makes it possible to obtain the same results in a shorter time. The chief substances stained by Rawitz's method are phospholipids, certain pro- teins, and certain polysaccharides. Although the method cannot be regarded as a cytochemical test in the strict sense, yet it gives useful indications of chemical composition and in addition is valuable to the morphological cytologist as a technique for showing certain cytoplasmic inclusions (mitotic spindle, acrosome, mitochondria, 'Golgi apparatus' of certain cells). INTRODUCTION T is well known that the so-called 'Golgi apparatus' is extremely difficult to I reveal by any staining method. Baker, in the course of his investigation on this organelle in the epididymis of the mouse, found that it can be stained by basic fuchsin after a special mordanting process (1957). The method was taken from Rawitz (1895), who found that basic fuchsin, if mordanted with tannic acid and potassium antimony tartrate, loses the character of a dye for chro- matin and colours the cytoplasm instead. Rawitz called this effect 'inversion staining'. Since this technique, when applied to various kinds of cytological material, gave good selectivity in visualizing certain delicate cell structures, it seemed interesting to investigate the nature of the chemical compounds which are responsible for positive Rawitz staining.

    Asian Journal of Applied Sciences (ISSN: 2321 – 0893) Volume 07 – Issue 01, February 2019 Factors Affecting the Adsorption of Some Ionic Dyes on the Surface of Modify CaO from Eggshell Ibtighaa K. Radhi, Mouayed A. Hussein, Zaki N. Kadhim* Department of Chemistry, College of Science, University of Basrah Basrah, Iraq *Corresponding author’s emails: zekinasser99 [AT] yahoo.com ________________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT--- In this paper, calcium oxide (CaO) was produced by the thermal treatment of eggshell. The doping process with silver iodide (AgI), oxygen (O), sulfur(S) and nitrogen (N) was achieved by adsorbents. The adsorption of Acid fuchsine (AF), Indigo Carmine (IC), Nigrosine (NG) and Alizarine Red S (AR) on the surface of these particles was studied. The different conditions affecting the adsorption process, such as the time of equilibrium, the primary concentration of the studied dyes, the amount of the adsorbent, the acidic function, the speed of the pruning motion and the temperature were studied. The pH stability time (5-10 minutes), IC and NG (30 minutes) and AR were (90 minutes). The effect of temperature was also studied within the range (25-45 ° C). The results showed that the adsorption capacity increased by increasing the temperature, ie the reaction is endothermic. The study showed the effect of the acidic function on the percentage of pigmentation. The percentage was increased by increasing the acidic function in the basal circles on the surfaces except for the AR dye. It decreased the percentage by increasing the acidic function. The effect of the weight of the adsorbent was studied on the percentage of adsorption.

  • Gentian Violet S010
    Gentian Violet S010 Gentian Violet is used as staining solution for monochrome staining of microbes. Composition** Ingredients Gentian violet 0.500 gm Distilled water 100.000 ml **Formula adjusted, standardized to suit performance parameters Directions 1) Prepare a smear on a clear, dry glass slide. 2) Allow it to air dry and fix with gentle heat. 3) Flood the slide with Gentian Violet (S010). 4) Allow the stain to be in contact with the smear for 1-2 minutes. 5) Wash in slow-running water, just enough to remove excess of dye. 6) Flood the smear with Iodine, drain and flood again with Iodine for 1 minute. 7) Wash with decolourizer (alcohol) for about 5-15 seconds. Wash the slide to stop the action of decolourizer. 8) Flood with safranin for 1 minute, wash very lightly. 9) Blot dry and examine under oil immersion objective. Principle And Interpretation Gentian Violet is used as a simple stain where it can render the organisms violet. Besides this it can also be used in the Gram staining for distinguishing between gram-positive and gram-negative organisms. Earlier, Gentian violet was used as the primary stain in Grams staining method, subsequently crystal violet has replaced gentian violet because of the defined chemical nature of crystal violet. Quality Control Appearance Dark purple coloured solution. Clarity Clear without any particles. Microscopic Examination Gram staining is carried out where Gentian Violet is used as one of the stains and staining characteristics of organisms are observed under microscope using oil immersion lens.

  • Marking Tephritidae Fruit Fly Adults in Hawaii for Release-Recovery
    Vol. XXIII, No. 3, February, 1981 437 Marking Tephritidae Fruit Fly Adults in Hawaii for Release-Recovery Studies1234 W. J. SCHROEDER5AND W. C. MlTCHELL6 The need to identify released insects is paramount in studies based on release-recovery evaluations. In Hawaii identification of released oriental fruit flies, Dacus dorsalisHendel, is accomplished by rearing and releasing phenotypically distinct flies (Steiner et al, 1962). Presently, marking the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann), and the melon fly, D. cucurbitae Coquillett, is accomplished with the use of Calco Blue ® dye (Steiner, 1965), Blaze Orange Day-Glo® fluorescent dye (Holbrook et al, 1970) or Tinopal® SFG fluorescent whitening agent (Schroeder et aL, 1972). Because of the need for additional markers, we routinely examine dye materials as possible external (ptilinum dye) and internal (vital dye) markers. These continuing studies include coating pupae with dye powder to determine the potential of the material as an external adult dye and addition of the dye to the larval diet followed by examination of the adult to determine the potential of the material as a vital dye. Promising mate rials are then evaluated for retention by the insect and ease of detection, and dyed insects are examined for behavioral changes. Finally the material is evaluated in a field release-recovery test. This report describes the general procedure used in dyeing and examining adult flies for the marker, lists materials tested, and discusses dyes presently used in Hawaii. General.—Adult Tephritidae are marked with an external dye by tum bling a known quantity of pupae with a known quantity of dry powder.
