Differences in the content of nine phenols and the antioxidant capacity of Ribes stenocarpum Maxim (RSM) fruits at different stages of maturity were investigated, and the extraction process of polyphenols from RSM was also optimized using Box-Behnken design method. Results showed that the content of the nine phenols varied considerably at different ripening stages; catechin, chlorogenic acid, coumaric acid, and ferulic acid were abundant in immature fruits but decreased with fruit ripening, whereas the levels of rosemary acid and querctin acid were low in immature fruits and increased with time, reaching the highest value after the fruit was completely mature. The phenols extracted from RSM fruits possessed good antioxidant activities for effective and rapid scavenging of DPPH and ABTS free radicals, as well as intracellular ROS. Analysis of the phenols content at different maturity stages indicated that the unripe fruits had significantly higher polyphenols content than mature fruits. Consequently, unripe fruits possessed higher antioxidant activities. According to the overall results of the extraction process optimization, the selected optimal conditions for extracting polyphenols from RSM were as follows: extraction time, 95 min; solvent concentration, 60%; ratio of sample to solvent, 1:25.

Environmental contextHydrochlorothiazide, a common diuretic pharmaceutical, occurs in environmental waters because current treatment technologies are unable to eliminate it from wastewater. To remove this environmentally hazardous chemical from water, we developed an advanced electrochemical oxidation process to efficiently degrade and mineralise the compound. Wider application of the process holds the promise of general, efficient destruction of pharmaceuticals in aqueous media. AbstractThe degradation and the mineralisation of the diuretic hydrochlorothiazide were studied by an advanced electrochemical oxidation process, ‘electro-Fenton’, which generates in situ hydroxyl radicals that are able to successfully oxidise or mineralise organic pollutants. In this study, a 0.1mM (29.8mgL−1) hydrochlorothiazide solution was completely oxidatively degraded in 15min under constant current electrolysis at 500 mA. The absolute kinetic rate constant of the oxidation reaction was also determined as (4.37±0.04)×109M−1s−1. The quasi-complete mineralisation of the solution was obtained with electrolysis for 6h under the same applied current. Several oxidation reaction intermediates were identified using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The formed carboxylic acids during the mineralisation process were also studied; oxamic, oxalic, acetic and maleic acids were identified and their concentrations were monitored throughout the electrolysis. The ions released during the treatment were also considered. Based on these data and the total organic carbon (TOC) removal results, a possible mineralisation pathway was proposed. These findings enable the conclusion that the electro-Fenton process is an efficient and environmentally-friendly method to eliminate the hazardous drug hydrochlorothiazide from an aqueous environment.

<p>Untreated wastewater can have important effects on the environment and human. The aim of the work was to evaluate the effectiveness of modified barley straw to remove malachite green from industrial wastewater. Studied variables were pH, contact time, initial malachite green concentration, and adsorbent dosage. Box–Behnken design method was used for modeling the process of adsorption. The results of analysis of variance showed that there are the significance relative among process parameters. The high value of R2 (0.9753) indicated that there was a high correlation between the predicted and experimental values. Removal efficiency of malachite green increased by increasing of modified barley straw dosage, pH and contact time, and decreasing of color concentration. Remove the color was better in alkaline conditions and the best pH was equal to 9.5. The optimum contact time to remove was 120 min. The findings of this study showed that Box-Behnken model can efficiently optimize the malachite green adsorption onto modified barley straw from aqueous solutions.</p>
