The reactive, macroporous and massive epoxy group containing polyGMA was synthesized simultaneously with methanol aqueous solution and nano-calcium carbonate as porogen by bulk copolymerization. After the polymer was smashed, particles with diameters in the range of 0.30 to 0.45 mm were taken as the carrier and the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrographs were done to characterize its surface structure. Under the optimum conditions, β-galactosidase was immobilized on the supporter obtained above and the enzyme activity bound per gram drier carrier could attained up to 77.33％, which was much higher than that bound on the carrier prepared by only using methanol aqueous solution as porogen. The conclusion obtained indicated that the ployGMA prepared concurrently with liquid and solid porogen was more suitable to immobilize enzyme because of the much more porous surface structure obtained.

In this paper, a new method for the preparation of composite nanofibers surface containing calcium carbonate nanoparticles using electrospinning technology was described. In detail, firstly, the type solution is formed by the aqueous solution of CaCl2which contains polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and the other is the aqueous solution of K2CO3. Two types of solution were mixed completely, and then Ca2+and CO32−generated CaCO3nanoparticles. Secondly, composite nanofibers with CaCO3nanoparticles were successfully prepared by above solution electrospun. The resulting composite nanofibers were characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), it determination showed that perfect mono-dispersed spherical CaCO3nanoparticles were dispersed on polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) nanofibers.

The macroporous and reactive carriers polyGMA-ST was synthesized simultaneously with a mixture of cyclohexanol and lauryl alcohol as liquid pore-forming agents and nano-calcium carbonate as solid one by bulk copolymerization. After the polymer was smashed, particles with diameters ranging 0.15 mm to 0.30 mm were taken as the carrier and the Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrographs were done to characterize its surface structure. Under the optimum conditions,β-galactosidaseAspergillus oryzaewas immobilized on the supporter obtained above, its enzyme activity could reach to 535.11U/g dry carrier and the activity recovery of the immobilizedβ-galactosidase was 79.63%. Meanwhile, the basic property and the kinetic data of the immobilized enzyme were determined and compared with those of the free enzyme and satisfactory results were obtained in pH stability, thermal stability and operational stability. The conclusion obtained here indicated that the ploy(GMA-co-ST) prepared concurrently with liquid and solid porogen was suitable to immobilize enzyme.

Since several species of Schistosoma, or blood fluke, parasitize man, these trematodes have been subjected to extensive study. Light microscopy and conventional electron microscopy have yielded much information about the morphology of the various stages; however, scanning electron microscopy has been little utilized for this purpose. As the figures demonstrate, scanning microscopy is particularly helpful in studying at high resolution characteristics of surface structure, which are important in determining host-parasite relationships.

Abstract. In this study, the CaCO3 powder has been successfully synthesized by mixing CaCl2 from natural limestone and Na2CO3 in the same molar ratio. The mixing process of solutions was carried out by employing the molar contents of 0.125, 0.25, 0.375 and 0.5M at varying temperatures of 30, 40, 60 and 80ᴼC. The produced CaCO3 microparticles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The highest content of aragonite phase with morphology rod-like of the samples is around 29 wt%, resulting from the process using solution of 0.125 M at 80 ᴼC. While at 30 ᴼC and 40 ᴼC produced 100 wt% calcite phase.

Bovine bone is a considerable source for the production of hydroxyapatite. The recent study reported a novel method to extract hydroxyapatite from bovine bone without producing hazardous residue. The bovine bones were cut and boiled in the opened chamber followed by boiling in pressurized tank. The bones were then soaked into 95% ethanol. Calcination was then conducted in 800°C, 900°C and 1,000°C, for 2 hours. The result was then grinded and sieved. The powder then was characterized using Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) to measure the purity of hydroxyapatite. It is concluded that the hydroxyapatite derived from this process showed 100% purity, resulting 35.34 ± 0.39% w/w from the wet bone weight and 72.3% w/w from the dried weight. The present extraction method has been proven to yield high amount of pure hydroxyapatite as well as reducing the use of hazardous reagent.

Solid waste red mud was modified by HCl leaching. The structure property and composition of modified red mud were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET). Under UV irradiation, methyl orange (MO) aqueous solution was photodegraded by modified red mud. The obtained results showed that the specific surface area of modified red mud was 317.14 m2/g, which was about 40 times higher than that of the normal red mud. After UV irradiation for 50 min, the removal percentage of MO reached 94.2%. The study provided a novel way for the application of red mud to the photocatalytic degradation of organic wastes.
