The digestion of biogenic organic matter is an essential step of sample preparation within microplastic analyses. Organic residues hamper the separation of polymer particles especially within density separation or polymer identification via spectroscopic and staining methods. Therefore, a concise literature survey has been undertaken to identify the most commonly applied digestion protocols with a special focus on water and sediments samples. The selected protocols comprise different solutions, concentrations, and reaction temperatures. Within this study we tested acids (nitric acid and hydrochloric acid), bases (sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide), and oxidizing agents [hydrogen peroxide, sodium hypochlorite and Fenton's reagent (hydrogen peroxide 30% in combination with iron(II)sulfate 0.27%)] at different concentrations, temperature levels, and reaction times on their efficiency of biogenic organic matter destruction and the resistance of different synthetic polymers against the applied digestion protocols. Tests were carried out in three parallels on organic material (soft tissue—leaves, hard tissue—branches, and calcareous material—shells) and six polymers (low-density polyethylene, high-density polyethylene, polypropylene, polyamide, polystyrene, and polyethylene terephthalate) in two size categories. Before and after the application of different digestion protocols, the material was weighed in order to determine the degree of digestion efficiency and polymer resistance, respectively. The efficiency of organic matter destruction is highly variable. Calcareous shells showed no to very low reaction to oxidizing agents and bases, but were efficiently dissolved with both tested acids at all concentrations and at all temperatures. Soft and hard tissue were most efficiently destroyed by sodium hypochlorite. However, the other reagents can also have good effects, especially by increasing the temperature to 40–50°C. The additional temperature increase to 60–70°C showed a further but less effective improvement, compared to the initial temperature increase. The resistance of tested polymer types can be rated as good except for polyamide and polyethylene terephthalate. Increasing the concentrations and temperatures, however, results in accelerated degradation of all polymers. This is most evident for polyamide and polyethylene terephthalate, which show losses in weight between 15 and 100% when the digestion temperature is increased. This effect is most pronounced for polyamide in the presence of acids and for polyethylene terephthalate digested with bases. As a concluding recommendation the selection of the appropriate digestion method should be specifically tested within initial pre-tests to account for the specific composition of the sample matrix and the project objectives.

Pretreatment of epoxy thin sections with strong oxidizing agents such as hydrogen peroxide, sodium methoxide, and sodium m-metaperiodate facilities the location of antigens with immunostaining procedures. Etching, or pretreatment, of sections unmasks antigenic sites on glutaraldehyde fixed and postosmicated tissue, partially removes osmium bonds, temporarily decreases the hydrophobicity of the epoxy surface layer of the section, reduces the electron density of the tissue and increases resistance to heavy rnetai poststaining.

Brachiaria Ruziziensis

Sowing is the most common way of establishing Brachiaria ruziziensis in pastures, but seed germi- nation is poor as a result of dormancy. The mechanism of dormancy is clearly located in the hull, for removing the hull or cutting at the base of the spikelet stimulates germination. No leachable inhibitor seems to be the cause of dormancy. However, the action of oxidizing agents such as hydrogen peroxide and the measurement of oxygen uptake by full or empty spikelets suggest that a restriction of gas exchange by the hull is responsible.

Size And Shape

A simple solution phase approach is described to prepare tellurium nanorods which undergo morphological modifications to yield different microstructures under varied experimental conditions. The morphology of the prepared products is drastically altered in presence of a few oxidizing agents such as sodium oxychloride (NaOCl), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) etc. The effects of poly (sodium 4-styrene sulphonate) (PSS) and Isooctyl phenoxy poly oxyethanol (TritonX-100) on the size and shape of the products in presence of air/NaOCl have also been monitored.

Tooth Discoloration

A significant aspect of cosmetic dentistry is the treatment of tooth discoloration. Discoloration of non-vital anterior teeth can cause significant esthetic concern and requires efficient treatment. Discoloration of teeth can be extrinsic or intrinsic or a combination of both based on etiology, appearance, localization, and severity. Walking bleach involves the use of chemical substances like sodium perborate or hydrogen peroxide which in contact with the tooth release oxidizing agents that diffuse through the enamel and dentin and oxidize the pigments responsible for discoloration. This article aims at presenting a case series on the walking bleach method performed on discolored endodontically treated teeth associated with superior esthetic outcomes.

Amino Group

The rate of production of CO2 from sodium lactate when treated with H2O2 may be increased by the addition of a compound containing a sulfhydryl group, i.e. cystine. A small part of this increase in rate of CO2 is due to the action of the amino group as shown by the action of glycocoll. The results tend to show that the mode of action of H2O2 is one of dehydrogenation and that the action of the cystine is comparable to the Atmungskörper of Meyerhof.
