It was determined from XRD and SEM measurements that the morphology of nanocomposites was exfoliated when the clay content in the polymer matrix was kept at 3% and 5%. From thermal analysis, a positive correlation was observed between the clay ratio and thermal stability of nanomaterials. Also, the cytotoxic effect of halloysite and its nanocomposites was investigated using XTT assay on HeLa cells. According to the results, nanocomposites showed a non-cytotoxic response and thus they may use safety in many research areas such as medicine, agriculture, cosmetics.","PeriodicalId":21347,"journal":{"name":"Revista de la Sociedad Química de Mexico","volume":"44 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81314315","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 research, adsorptive removal of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) onto used black tea leaves (UBTLs) as well as on sodium chlorite modified used black tea leaves (SCM-UBTLs) was investigated at different conditions. The value of pH was optimized at 2. Smaller particle size (50-100 m) of both the adsorbents showed maximum removal of 2,4-DCP. However, SCM-UBTLs exhibited comparatively higher (54%) removal of DCP than unmodified used black tea leaves (UM-UBTLs) (40%) at similar conditions (pH, particle size and dose). Equilibrium attained within three hours for both the adsorbents of smaller particle size at pH 2. Adsorption follows the Ho’s pseudo-second-order kinetics rather than Lagergren pseudo-firstorder for both the adsorbents. The experimental data was justified with the FTIR spectra of adsorbed and unadsorbed surfaces.","PeriodicalId":21347,"journal":{"name":"Revista de la Sociedad Química de Mexico","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79642357","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 work, chitosan was grafted with different sources of amino acids (Histidine, Aspartic acid, Glutamic acid, Glycine-Aspartic acid, and Glycine-Glutamic acid), Chitosan and its grafted amino acid derivatives were obtained in very good yield, and they were characterized by Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and the resulted spectra confirmed the right structures of chitosan and its different synthesized derivatives. The chitosan and its amino acid derivatives were converted to nanoparticles in size by subjecting them to the sonication method. The Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) was used to determine the shape and size of the prepared polymeric nanoparticles and the average nanoparticle size counted by the Image-J program. The micrographs revealed that the nanoparticles with spherical shapes and with different sizes were gained, but in general, they are less than 100nm in diameters. In vitro cytotoxicity of chitosan and chitosan derivatives prepared NPs were determined as MTT assay, against different three types of human breast cancer cell lines which are BT cell lines, MCF-7 cell lines, and SKBR3 cell lines.

The present investigation emphasizes on zinc sulphate (ZnSO4) in galactose and its comparative study with lactose in aqueous medium at 303.15, 308.15, 313.15K temperature and at 1.0 atmospheric pressure. Different physical quantities such as density, viscosity and speed of sound have been measured as function of concentrations and temperatures for these multi-component solutions. These quantities were further used to evaluate various thermo-acoustic parameters like acoustic impedance, isentropic compressibility, partial molal compressibility, partial molal volume, internal pressure etc,. The results were analyzed to assess the type and extent of association among the components. Moreover, both Zn and SO4 are in the Hofmeister series and there is a possibility of ion-macro molecule interactions in aqueous solution. The breaking of the structure and the solvation of the solute by changing the temperature in mixed solvents are the point of discussion in the present study. Interestingly, the ion-solvation of zinc ion is comparatively more favorable in galactose than in lactosewater mixed solvent systems.","PeriodicalId":21347,"journal":{"name":"Revista de la Sociedad Química de Mexico","volume":"158 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82919291","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}

Bioaerosols are PM of biological origin, that has not been morphologically characterized as exhaustively as other types of PM. The term bioaerosols collectively refers to all dead or living airborne particles with biological origins, including pollen, fungi, bacteria, viruses, plant or animal debris, as well as fragments and products of pathogenic microorganisms. Pathogenic airborne microorganisms may have public health consequences. Bioaerosols suspended in ambient air from the Metropolitan Zone of Toluca Valley (MZTV), State of Mexico were identified by scanning electron microscopy followed by energy dispersive xray spectroscopy, to determine their morphology, elemental chemical composition, and average sizes. The bioaerosols detected were pollen, spores, microorganisms, fragments, and diatoms that exhibited diverse morphological structures; while some particles had rough or smooth surfaces, others were spongy and spherical or had irregular or thorny surfaces. Others, yet, had well-structured surfaces such as the amoeba that were detected in the study. EDS analyses carried out on SEM samples demonstrated that C and O were the main chemical elements of them. The main components of diatoms were the silicon and oxygen. The particle radii (r) of detected pollen was 2 μm ≤ r ≤ 23 μm, spores were 0.17 μm ≤ r ≤ 3.7 μm, microorganisms were 0.16 μm ≤ r ≤ 12 μm, and diatoms were 2.3 μm ≤ r ≤ 23 μm.

The effect of different factors such as initial dye concentration, sample volume and treatment time was taken in account. All samples of MG and BB have been analysed at 617 and 620 nm, respectively. The linearity ranged between 5 and 50 mg/L for MG dye while it was ranged between 20 and 200 mg/L for BB dye. The linear regression, R2, was more than 0.995 for both dyes.
