The extracted nanocrystals were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) and Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR). Well-defined pore spaces, predominant nano range of particles (0.045 – 0.082 µm), greater crystallinity index from 1.09 to 1.21, and disappearance of peaks at 1736 and 1429 cm-1 in FTIR in addition to higher carbon content are parameters that better-define the characteristics of cellulose nanocrystals. A Two-fold improvement in monolayer adsorption capacity was obtained for cellulose nanocrystals (432.17mgg-1) described by Langmuir isotherm over bagasse (170.99 mgg-1) described by Freundlich isotherm. Adsorption processes on both adsorbents were spontaneous, exothermic and best described by pseudo second-order kinetics. Polynomial regression models appropriately predicted equations that best describe the effects of different batch adsorption parameters on MO removal with better fittingness than experimentally generated data.","PeriodicalId":20084,"journal":{"name":"Physical Chemistry Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42354725","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this respect, fluorescence, Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopies, along with the docking and molecular dynamics simulations (MD) were utilized. Analysis of spectroscopic and MD simulation results revealed the structural alterations of HSA, upon binding to the binuclear platinum complexes, while the hydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces were found to mainly contribute to the protein-ligand intermolecular interactions. Results of far-UV CD measurements showed the strong ability of platinum complexes, in reducing the α-helical content of HSA, while other secondary structural features were increased. Due to their different chemical natures, these complexes bind to HSA in different manners. Binding constants and thermodynamic binding parameters between these complexes and HSA were calculated using the Stern−Volmer and van’t Hoff equations. Calculated thermodynamic binding parameters indicated that the interaction is spontaneous and enthalpy driven, through the static and dynamic quenching mechanisms, for complexes 1 and 2, respectively.","PeriodicalId":20084,"journal":{"name":"Physical Chemistry Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41564814","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

CuCo0.2/AC calcined at 450°C showed highest catalytic activity exhibiting 86% conversion of benzyl alcohol due to the high crystallinity as compared to the monometallic counterpart.

The raw banana stalk was chemically treated with orthophosphoric acid to enhance its adsorptive properties. The effect of LUMF initial concentration, temperature, solution pH, and contact time on the adsorption process was studied using the batch equilibrium process. The surface characteristics of the prepared adsorbent were investigated using SEM, FTIR, proximate analysis, and the Boehm titration techniques. The FTIR spectra showed notable peaks that are responsible for the adsorptive uptake of LUMF. The micrograph from the SEM showed well-developed pores which can be attributed to the effect of the acid treatment, and results from the proximate analysis showed 73.92% carbon content which is a remarkable percentage for a favorable uptake. The sips isotherm model best fitted the experimental data with an R2 = 1, and a maximum adsorption capacity of 102.1 mg/g. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model best explains the kinetics of adsorption of LUMF onto BSAC with R2 values ranging from 0.9845-0.9997. Thermodynamic studies suggest that LUMF uptake by BSAC is endothermic, spontaneous, and thermodynamically favored. BSAC was found to be effective in removing LUMF from aqueous solutions.","PeriodicalId":20084,"journal":{"name":"Physical Chemistry Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42230358","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this research was to examine the effect of ultrasonic irradiation (40 kHz) in various times of exposure (10 to 60 min) on the structure of hCG. The UV-Visible and near-UV CD data illustrated that ultrasonic irradiation could induce alterations in the tertiary structure of hCG and these conformational variations were irreversible. The ultrasonic-induced variations were observed in the intrinsic fluorescence emission. Furthermore, after long periods of exposure, ANS affinity to hCG incremented considerably. A transition to the random coil was observed in far-UV CD data. Ultrasonic irradiation could increment the negative surface charge on hCG. The effect of ultrasonic time revealed initial increment and eventual reduction in hCG size. After 60 min exposure, some new bands were observed at the SDS-PAGE profile of hCG. Collectively, our in vitro experiments demonstrated the sensitive balance between various noncovalent interactions in the structure of hCG could be easily disrupted after ultrasonic treatments. Results from this study are useful to achieve a better understanding of the ultrasonic irradiation physicochemical effects on proteins. Besides, can help to determine safe limits for people particularly, pregnant women.","PeriodicalId":20084,"journal":{"name":"Physical Chemistry Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43896037","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
