The aim of the present research is to investigate the efficiency of surface-modified magnetic nanoparticles for photocatalytic degradation of PCBs from transformer oil. Therefore, CMCD-Fe3O4@TiO2 was successfully produced via grafting of carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrin (CM-β-CD) onto the core-shell titania magnetic nanoparticles surface. The p…[Read more]

The synthesis of magnetic Hematite nanoparticles (α-Fe2O3) via green route has been a long lasting challenge for the scientific and technological fascination of many researchers. In the present investigation, iron oxide nanoparticles (α-Fe2O3) were synthesized using Rheum emodi roots in a cost effective and ecofriendly method. Their p…[Read more]

The levels of mitochondrial damage and ROS were reduced after LBP-/- rats were pretreated with rapamycin in the context of LPS-induced sepsis. Inhibiting CYP4a2, one of the PPARα-target gene products, reduced the level of LPS-induced ROS in LBP-/- rats.
