Biomimetic sensors based on semiconductor (Si), metal (Al) and smart material (TPhPFe3+OH/Al2O3) have been developed. It has been found that a biomimetic sensor, where a semiconductor (Si) is used as an electrode, exhibits high sensitivity, stability and reproducibility. The effect of temperature and the amount of smart material on the catalase activity of biomimetic sensors was studied. At the study of the Si-electrode for catalase activity, it was revealed that the amount of smart material and temperature do not affect the detection limit of hydrogen peroxide in an aqueous solution, the sensitivity threshold, which was 10-6 mass%. When detecting the catalase activity of the TPhPFe3+OH/Al2O3//Al biomimetic sensor, it was established that the sensitivity threshold was also 10-6 mass %

Background: Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is widely present in various fields. And H2O2 plays quintessential role in variety of biomolecular processes. H2O2 concentration level is an essential biological parameter in monitoring and maintaining the physiological balance of a living cell, and its variation will cause some related diseases. Therefore, it is extremely significant to fabricate biosensor with low cost which can quickly, accurately and sensitively detect H2O2 in a wide range. The aims of this paper are to explore a novel electrochemical sensor with high intrinsic peroxidase-like activity, high sensitivity and stability to detect effectively H2O2 concentration in real samples. Methods: The chemical modified electrode LaNiTiO3-Fe3O4/GCE is fabricated based on nanomaterial LaNiTiO3-Fe3O4 by simply process, and its electrochemical properties are investigated in the supporting electrolyte of 0.1 M NaOH by the techniques of cyclic voltammetry and current-time curves on an electrochemical workstation with a conventional threeelectrode system. Results: LaNiTiO3-Fe3O4 nanoparticles show good peroxidase-like activity for H2O2 at a low applied potential of +0.50 V. Under the optimum conditions, the peroxidase biomimetic sensor LaNiTiO3-Fe3O4/GCE exhibits a wide linear response for H2O2 oxidation in the range of 0.05 μM - 3.0 mM (R = 0.9994) with a high sensitivity of 3946.2 μA∙mM1 ∙cm-2 and fast response time of 2 s, and the detection limit of H2O2 is found to be ca. 5.15 nM (S/N = 3). Moreover, the biosensor presents a good repeatability, stability and anti-interference. Satisfactory results were obtained when the sensor LaNiTiO3-Fe3O4/GCE is applied to determine H2O2 in real samples. All of these results provide support to practical application. Conclusion: A highly sensitive peroxidase biomimetic sensor based on LaNiTiO3-Fe3O4 with nano-scaled material is successfully explored, and shows good activity for H2O2. The proposed biosensor with simple and low cost has exhibited excellent advantages of quick response, wide linear range, low detection limit, high sensitivity, long-term stability and good anti-interference ability, which provides promising applications.

Abstract:: Activated peroxide systems are formed by adding so-called bleach activators to aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide, developed in the seventies of the last century for use in domestic laundry for their high energy efficiency and introduced at the beginning of the 21st century to the textile industry as an approach toward overcoming the extensive energy consumption in bleaching. In activated peroxide systems, bleach activators undergo perhydrolysis to generate more kinetically active peracids that enable bleaching under milder conditions while hydrolysis of bleach activators and decomposition of peracids may occur as side reactions to weaken the bleaching efficiency. This mini-review aims to summarize these competitive reactions in activated peroxide systems and their influence on bleaching performance.

Background: Coal gangue was used as a catalyst in heterogeneous Fenton process for the degradation of azo dye and phenol. The influencing factors, such as solution pH gangue concentration and hydrogen peroxide dosage were investigated, and the reaction mechanism between coal gangue and hydrogen peroxide was also discussed. Methods: Experimental results showed that coal gangue has the ability to activate hydrogen peroxide to degrade environmental pollutants in aqueous solution. Under optimal conditions, after 60 minutes of treatment, more than 90.57% of reactive red dye was removed, and the removal efficiency of Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) up to 72.83%. Results: Both hydroxyl radical and superoxide radical anion participated in the degradation of organic pollutant but hydroxyl radical predominated. Stability tests for coal gangue were also carried out via the continuous degradation experiment and ion leakage analysis. After five times continuous degradation, dye removal rate decreased slightly and the leached Fe was still at very low level (2.24-3.02 mg L-1). The results of Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-Ray Spectrometer (EDS) and X-Ray Powder Diffraction (XRD) indicated that coal gangue catalyst is stable after five times continuous reuse. Conclusion: The progress in this research suggested that coal gangue is a potential nature catalyst for the efficient degradation of organic pollutant in water and wastewater via the Fenton reaction.

The catalytic properties of two-component catalyst nickel oxide-cadmium oxide with the proportions of the components covering the whole composition region 0-100% were examined by studying the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide in aqueous solution on it. In the range 0-25 mol.% CdO, cadmium oxide is found to affect infavourably the ability of nickel oxide to chemisorb oxygen. The amount of the chemisorbed oxygen increases several times on gamma irradiation of the samples. The effect of cadmium oxide on the catalytic activity of the system shows up in fresh samples only indirectly via the changed amount of the oxygen chemisorbed. In older samples the initial catalytic activity of the system is changed, which can be explained based on the concept of bivalent catalytic centres in terms of the co-action of the catalytic centres of the two oxides, which are in equilibrium. The irradiation of the system under study speeds up the processes leading to the establishing of this equilibrium which is thermally very stable, and results in a substantial increase of the catalytic activity of the samples investigated.

The oxidation of the ethylenediphosphinetetraacetate anion and its protonated forms by iodine, periodate, hydrogen peroxide, and oxygen has been studied in aqueous solution. The oxidation by the first three reagents is fast and yields a single product, bis(phosphine oxide), which has been isolated and characterized as ethylenebis(phosphinyl)tetraacetic acid. The oxidation by molecular oxygen proceeds considerably more slowly; in weakly acid solutions its rate is determined by the properties of the oxygen rather than by the electronic structure of the various protonated substrate species. The inhibiting effect of the phosphonium structures takes place only in strongly acid solutions.

The kinetics of the liquid-like → solid-like 2D phase transition of adenine adsorbed at the Hg/aqueous solution interface is studied. Attention is focused on the effect of temperature on the rate of phase change; an increase in temperature is found to cause a decrease of transition rate.

Abstract A procedure for the enzymatic determination of lecithin and sphingomyelin in aqueous solution is described. The phospholipids are first dissolved in chloroform:methanol (2:1 by vol), the solvent is evaporated, and the residue is redissolved in an aqueous zwitterionic detergent solution. The enzymatic reaction sequences of both assays involve hydrolysis of the phospholipids to produce choline, which is then oxidized to betaine, thus generating hydrogen peroxide. The hydrogen peroxide is subsequently utilized in the enzymatic coupling of 4-aminoantipyrine and sodium 2-hydroxy-3,5-dichlorobenzenesulfonate, an intensely red color being formed. The presence of a non-reacting phospholipid enhances the hydrolysis of the reacting phospholipid. Thus we added lecithin to the sphingomyelin standards and sphingomyelin to the lecithin standards. This precise procedure may be applicable to determination of lecithin and sphingomyelin in amniotic fluid.

The respiratory rates of three species of planktonic copepods, Acartia clausi, Centropages hamatus and Temora longicornis, were measured at four different temperatures.The relationship between respiratory rate and temperature was found to be similar to that previously found for Calanus, although the slope of the curves differed in the different species.The observations on Centropages at 13 and 170 C. can be divided into two groups and it is suggested that the differences are due to the use of copepods from two different generations.The relationship between the respiratory rates and lengths of Acartia and Centropages agreed very well with that previously found for other species. That for Temora was rather different: the difference is probably due to the distinct difference in the shape of the body of Temora from those of the other species.The application of these measurements to estimates of the food requirements of the copepods is discussed.

AbstractAnisakidae, marine nematodes, are underrecognized fish-borne zoonotic parasites. Studies on factors that could trigger parasites to actively migrate out of the fish are very limited. The objective of this study was to assess the impact of different environmental conditions (temperature, CO2 and O2) on larval motility (in situ movement) and mobility (migration) in vitro. Larvae were collected by candling or enzymatic digestion from infected fish, identified morphologically and confirmed molecularly. Individual larvae were transferred to a semi-solid Phosphate Buffered Saline agar, and subjected to different temperatures (6 ℃, 12 ℃, 22 ℃, 37 ℃) at air conditions. Moreover, different combinations of CO2 and O2 with N2 as filler were tested, at both 6 °C and 12 °C. Video recordings of larvae were translated into scores for larval motility and mobility. Results showed that temperature had significant influence on larval movements, with the highest motility and mobility observed at 22 ℃ for Anisakis spp. larvae and 37 ℃ for Pseudoterranova spp. larvae. During the first 10 min, the median migration of Anisakis spp. larvae was 10 cm at 22 ℃, and the median migration of Pseudoterranova spp. larvae was 3 cm at 37 ℃. Larval mobility was not significantly different under the different CO2 or O2 conditions at 6 °C and 12 ℃. It was concluded that temperature significantly facilitated larval movement with the optimum temperature being different for Anisakis spp. and Pseudoterranova spp., while CO2 and O2 did not on the short term. This should be further validated in parasite-infected/spiked fish fillets.
