Prooxidative Effect

The influence of a number of factors on the autoxidation of butterfat has been studied. Metallic catalysts have been found to exert a great effect in hastening the reaction, their intensity being in the following decreasing order: sodium vanadate, copper lactate, iron lactate, nickel sulphate. Zinc lactate has a slight retarding action.Ultra-violet light, hydrogen peroxide and fat peroxides have a strong prooxidative effect and to a less extent lactic acid. Curd exerts an antioxygenic effect, while humidity, glycerol, triolein, lactose, iodine, potassium iodide and the effect of pasteurisation have little or no influence.The author wishes to thank the Auckland University College Council and Sir James Gunson for a Sir James Gunson Scholarship during the tenure of which this research was undertaken, Dr F.

Bod Removal

Perceived negative environmental effects associated with chlorine bleaching have led to the development and implementation of pulp bleaching technologies which eliminate the use of elemental chlorine (ECF) or any chlorine containing compounds (TCF). Commercial implementation of these technologies has moved forward; however, the research necessary to fully understand the impact of effluents from these new bleaching technologies on the environment and on existing biological treatment processes has lagged behind, and is for many novel bleaching sequences, non-existent. This study examined the impact of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and chelating agents on the characteristics and treatment of TCF and ECF kraft effluents. Effluent BOD was reduced approximately 25% by addition of H2O2 concentrations from 20-640 mg/L, however, effluent toxicity was not affected by hydrogen peroxide concentrations of up to 640 mg/L. Unacclimated activated sludge was inhibited by sudden exposure to shock doses of hydrogen peroxide. While the viability of the sludge (as measured by the rate of substrate metabolism) was profoundly affected, the effect was reversible, with full recovery of metabolic activity restored within approximately 10 hours of the shock. In continuous trials, as the activated sludge reactor became acclimated to H2O2, the kinetics of degradation of hydrogen peroxide increased. Chelating agents, particularly diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA), were also found to have a dramatic impact on sludge viability and reactor performance. Batch tests indicated a DTPA dose-dependent decrease in oxygen uptake rate. Introduction of DTPA at levels commonly found in TCF effluents to continuous reactors resulted in a disruption of floc structure and a 39% decrease in BOD removal efficiency. Removal of acute toxicity as measured by Microtox was maintained despite the poor BOD removal efficiency.

Abstract In this paper, a glutathione functionalized gold nanocluster (GSH-AuNCs) was prepared. GSH-AuNCs can catalyze the oxidation of 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) in the presence of hydrogen peroxide to produce a blue-green ox-TMB. By using its peroxidase activity and the GSH-AuNCs-TMB-H2O2 system, the visualization of Fe3+ and Cu2+ and the high sensitivity detection of Fe3+ and Cu2+ can be realized according to the change of absorbance value and color of the system. The results showed that the sensitivity of the system to detect Fe3+ and Cu2+ in industrial wastewater reached 1.25 × 10−9 M and 1.25 × 10−10M, respectively. At the same time, the chelating agents NH4F and EDTA · 2Na were introduced to realize the selective detection of the two ions under the coexistence of Fe3+ and Cu2+ ions.

Axenic Cultures

Biochemical and differential centrifugation studies have demonstrated that the oxidative enzymes of Acanthamoeba sp. are localized in mitochondria and peroxisomes (microbodies). Although hartmanellid amoebae have been the subject of several electron microscopic studies, peroxisomes have not been described from these organisms or other protozoa. Cytochemical tests employing diaminobenzidine-tetra HCl (DAB) and hydrogen peroxide were used for the ultrastructural localization of peroxidases of trophozoites of Hartmanella sp. (A-l, Culbertson), a pathogenic strain grown in axenic cultures of trypticase soy broth.

Color Palette

Noninvasive fluorescent imaging requires far-red and near-infrared fluorescent proteins for deeper imaging. Near-infrared light penetrates biological tissue with blood vessels due to low absorbance, scattering, and reflection of light and has a greater signal-to-noise due to less autofluorescence. Far-red and near-infrared fluorescent proteins absorb light >600 nm to expand the color palette for imaging multiple biosensors and noninvasive in vivo imaging. The ideal fluorescent proteins are bright, photobleach minimally, express well in the desired cells, do not oligomerize, and generate or incorporate exogenous fluorophores efficiently. Coral-derived red fluorescent proteins require oxygen for fluorophore formation and release two hydrogen peroxide molecules. New fluorescent proteins based on phytochrome and phycobiliproteins use biliverdin IXα as fluorophores, do not require oxygen for maturation to image anaerobic organisms and tumor core, and do not generate hydrogen peroxide. The small Ultra-Red Fluorescent Protein (smURFP) was evolved from a cyanobacterial phycobiliprotein to covalently attach biliverdin as an exogenous fluorophore. The small Ultra-Red Fluorescent Protein is biophysically as bright as the enhanced green fluorescent protein, is exceptionally photostable, used for biosensor development, and visible in living mice. Novel applications of smURFP include in vitro protein diagnostics with attomolar (10−18 M) sensitivity, encapsulation in viral particles, and fluorescent protein nanoparticles. However, the availability of biliverdin limits the fluorescence of biliverdin-attaching fluorescent proteins; hence, extra biliverdin is needed to enhance brightness. New methods for improved biliverdin bioavailability are necessary to develop improved bright far-red and near-infrared fluorescent proteins for noninvasive imaging in vivo.
