In this work, we describe the immobilization of the dinuclear compound [Cu2(apyhist)2Cl2](ClO4)2 (1) and its derived cations complexes, obtained in water solution or by deprotonation of the imidazolate moiety in the ligand leading to a cyclic tetranuclear species, in the Nafion® membrane on glass carbon electrode surface. After that, we studied the influence of the equilibrium in the electrocatalytic activity towards the reduction of H2O2 in the development of an amperometric sensor for the analytical determination of hydrogen peroxide. This strategy proved successful, and the electrochemical behaviour of the all complexes formed within the Nafion® coatings was characterized. We also provide evidence that its related cyclic tetranuclear imidazolate-bridged complex acts as a catalysts for the intramolecular, two-electron reduction of H2O2.

The alkaloid glandicoline B (1) and six other compounds: ergosterol (2), brassicasterol (3), ergosterol peroxide (4), cerevisterol (5), mannitol (6) and 1-O-α-D-glucopyranoside (7) were isolated from Penicillium sp. strain PBR.2.2.2, a fungus from Mauritia flexuosa roots. The structures of the isolated metabolites were established by spectral analysis. MeOH extract of the fungal mycelium at 500 µg mL-1 exhibited antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and the compound 1 at 100 µg mL-1 was active against S. aureus, Micrococcus luteus and Escherichia coli. The relationship between the bioactive properties of the fungus PBR.2.2.2 and those achieved for glandicoline B, as well the potential of this substance as bactericide is discussed.

This paper compares the catalytic activities of some transition metal ions (Fe3+, Co2+, Cu2+, Ni2+, Zn2+) in the H2O2 decomposition in homogenous and heterogeneous processes, including solid mixed systems (Fe-Cu-Co/Al2O3, Fe-Cu/Al2O3, Fe-Co/Al2O3 and Co-Cu/Al2O3). The solids were characterised by X-ray diffraction to explore evolution of phases or possible changes. Different trends of the catalytic activity were observed: in homogeneous medium the most active species was Fe3+, whereas in heterogeneous one the higher activities were shown for Co/Al2O3 and Co-Cu/Al2O3. A strong cooperative effect for the Co-Cu/Al2O3 system was observed, which can be considered as a new catalyst of interest for this type of reactions.

This work reports the development of GDE for electrogeneration of H2O2 and their application in the degradation process of Reactive Blue 19 dye. GDE produced by carbon black with 20% polytetrafluoroethylene generated up to 500 mg L-1 of H2O2 through the electrolysis of acidic medium at -0.8 V vs Ag/AgCl. Reactive Blue 19 dye was degraded most efficiently with H2O2 electrogenerated in the presence of Fe(II) ions, leading to removal of 95% of the original color and 39% of TOC at -0.8 V vs Ag/AgCl.

Omega-3 enriched partial acylglycerols are beneficial for human health. The aim of this study was to obtain monoacylglycerols (MAG) and diacylglycerols (DAG) by means of glycerolysis of fish oil catalyzed by a lipase from Rhizomucor miehei in the presence of food grade surfactants (Tween 65, 80 or 85). Glycerolysis was successful in the reaction media for all the tested surfactants, showing their potential for use as additives in such a system. The best results, however, were obtained for the reaction medium in the absence of surfactant whose peroxide value was the lowest after glycerolysis.

Adsorption of Reactive Blue 19 dye onto activated red mud was investigated. Red mud was treated with hydrogen peroxide (LVQ) and heated at both 400 ºC (LVQ400) and 500 ºC (LVQ500). These samples were characterized by pH, specific surface area, point of zero charge and mineralogical composition. Adsorption was found to be significantly dependent on solution pH, with acidic conditions proving to be the most favorable. The adsorption followed pseudo-second-order kinetics. The Langmuir isotherm was the most appropriate to describe the phenomenon of dye removal using LVQ, LVQ400 and LVQ500, with maximum adsorption capacity of 384.62, 357.14 and 454.54 mg g-1, respectively.

Screening of biomass of a new marine-derived strain of Penicillium roqueforti, as produced by liquid-state fermentation, led to the identification of several volatile organic compounds active in the fatty acid pathway as well as fragments produced by their catabolism, terpenoids, and metabolites from the shikimic acid pathway. In addition, five non-volatile organic compounds, triolein, ergosterol peroxide, 9(11)-dehydroergosterol peroxide, 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde, and d-mannitol, were isolated and identified by spectroscopy. The results showed that this fungal strain did not produce any mycotoxin in the culture conditions applied, and thus is useful for industrial applications, where high value-added biomolecules are generated.

Electrodes modified with poly(5-amino-1-naphthol)/Prussian blue (poly(5-NH2-1-NAP)/PB) hybrid films are able to electrochemically reduce H2O2 in medium containing an excess of Na+ cations. This is an important advantage for biosensing applications over electrodes in which only conventionally (electro) deposited Prussian blue is present. Consequently, the aim of this work was to examine the application of templates of ordered arrays of colloidal poly(styrene) spheres (800, 450 and 100 nm in diameter) to produce inverse opal structures of poly(5-NH2-1-NAP)/PB hybrid platforms, in an effort to study the influence of the increase in surface area/volume ratio and higher exposition of the mediator active sites on material performance during H2O2 determination employing the different sized porous structures. Moreover, since the accentuated hydrophilic character of poly(5-NH2-1-NAP)/PB also allows H2O2 electrochemical reduction in inner active sites, issues concerning the amount of mediator electrodeposited on the electrode were also reflected in the observed results.

Magnesiumhydroksidin on havaittu soveltuvan natriumhydroksidin korvaajaksi mekaanisen massan peroksidivalkaisun alkalina. Työssä selvitettiin, miten magnesiumhydroksidi vaikuttaa paperin valmistukseen ja valmiin paperin ominaisuuksiin. Laboratoriokokeet osoittivat magnesiumhydroksidin soveltuvan mekaanisen massan peroksidivalkaisun alkaliksi, sillä vaaleustavoite saavutettiin sen avulla. Valkaistun massan varaustila, johtokyky sekä ζ -potentiaali laskivat magnesiumhydroksidin vaikutuksesta. Nämä johtivat huomattavasti korkeampaan paperin täyteaineretentioon. Massan vedenpidätyskyky kasvoi korvattaessa natriumhydroksidi magnesiumhydroksidilla. Arkkien ominaisuuksista vetoindeksi, valonsirontakerroin ja taivutusjäykkyys kasvoivat. Kaikki edellä mainitut ominaisuudet viittaavat siihen, että magnesiumhydroksidin käyttö parantaa hienoaineen sitoutumista paperiin.

Tämän työn tarkoituksena oli löytää tehokas ja taloudellinen pesuaine/pesuaineyhdistelmä kahdelle nanosuodatuskalvolle, joiden läpi on suodatettu paperitehtaan kirkassuodosta ja hiomon kiertovettä. Työssä tutkittiin myös sitä, kestävätkö tutkitut kalvot vetyperoksidia. Työssä havaittiin, että tutkituista kalvoista huokoisempi ei puhdistunut millään tutkituista pesuaineista/pesuaineyhdistelmistä. Tiiviimmän kalvon vesivuo palautui hyvin kahdella tutkituista pesuaineista. Palautuminen oli todennäköisesti seurausta siitä, että pesuaine irrotti lian kalvon pinnasta ja modifioi sen jälkeen kalvon pintaa. Työssä havaittiin myös, että huokoisempi kalvo kestää hyvin toistuvaa vetyperoksidikäsittelyä. Tiiviimpi kalvo puolestaan ei kestä toistuvaa käsittelyä vetyperoksidilla. Vetyperoksidia voidaan kuitenkin käyttää satunnaisesti apuna tiiviimpienkin kalvojen pesussa.

A method has been developed for the simultaneous determination of Cd and Pb in antibiotics used in sugar-cane fermentation by GFAAS. The integrated platform of transversely heated graphite atomizer was treated with tungsten to form a coating of tungsten carbide. Six samples of commercial solid antibiotics were analyzed by injecting 20 µL of digested samples into the pretreated graphite platform with co-injection of 5 µL of 1000 mg L-1 Pd as chemical modifier. Samples were mineralized in a closed-vessel microwave-assisted acid-digestion system using nitric acid plus hydrogen peroxide. The pyrolysis and atomization temperatures of the heating program of the atomizer were selected as 600°C and 2200°C, respectively. The calculated characteristic mass for Cd and Pb was 1.6 pg and 42 pg, respectively. Limits of detection (LOD) based on integrated absorbance were 0.02 µg L-1 Cd and 0.7 µg L-1 Pb and the relative standard deviations (n = 10) for Cd and Pb were 5.7% and 8.0%, respectively. The recoveries of Cd and Pb added to the digested samples varied from 91% to 125% (Cd) and 80% to 112% (Pb).

Tämän työn tarkoituksena oli jalkauttaa Liqum Oy:n kehittämä Chemistry Navi-gator (Chena) kunnossapidon ja tuotannon päivittäiseksi työkaluksi prosessin märän pään kemian seurantaan. Chena – analysaattorin mittausteknologia perustuu hapetus – pelkistysreaktioiden mittaamiseen. Analysaattori mittaa paperimassassa olevien ionien ja ionikombinaatioiden konsentraatioita ja aktiivisuuksia kuudella anturilla, joiden toiminta perustuu sähkökemiallisiin muutoksiin mitattavassa näytteessä. Diplomityön tarkoituksena oli erityisesti Chena – järjestelmän toimintakuntoon saattaminen sekä tutkia minkälaisia muutoksia märkäosan kemian tilassa analysaattorilla voidaan havaita. Työn kirjallisuusosassa esitellään yleisesti paperikoneen märkäosan kemiallisia ilmiöitä ja kemian tilan muuttujia. Lisäksi esitellään yleisimpiä prosessiin annosteltavia paperin laatuun sekä prosessin toimivuuteen vaikuttavia kemikaaleja. Kokeellisessa osassa optimoitiin järjestelmässä olevien ajoparametrien raja-arvoja vastaamaan nykypäivän ajo-olosuhteita sekä tutkittiin miten Chenan signaalit reagoivat eri massasuhteilla ja kemikaaliannoksilla. Kokeellisen osassa suoritettujen askelvastekokeiden tulosten perusteella havait-tiin, että peroksidi ja ditioniitti antoivat voimakkaimmat vasteet Chenan signaaleihin varsinkin suuremmilla pitoisuuksilla. Myös retentio- ja vaahdonestoaineen osalta oli havaittavissa selviä vasteita Chenan signaaleissa. Massasuhteiden osalta merkittävimmät vasteet Chenan signaaleihin PK4:n puolella aiheuttivat täysin hylytön massaseos sekä puolet kokonaistilavuudesta päällystämätöntä hylkyä sisältänyt massaseos. PK7:n puolella voimakkaimmat vasteet aiheutuivat alhaisen hylkypitoisuuden massoista. Chena avulla saadaan uutta

Laboratories consume great amounts of hazardous chemicals substances and consequently generate wastewater containing them, for example formaldehyde. This substance is widely utilized to preserve biological samples generating many liters of this residue every year. The present work proposes the use of the photo-Fenton process to treat formaldehyde wastewater using sunlight irradiation. Some aspects were investigated such as the iron source, sample and hydrogen peroxide concentration and also the use of stirred systems. The use of ferrioxalate (0.5 mmol L-1) improved the efficiency of the process in relation to the use of iron nitrate, while at least 1.0 mol L-1 H2O2 is necessary to treat the sample of the 500 mg C L-1. Under these conditions, every formaldehyde detectable was degradeted and 89% of the dissolved organic carbon was removed in two hours of exposure to sunlight. These results are satisfaction considerate for São Paulo State Environmental Agency.

The aim of the present study was to investigate a cytotoxic oxidative cell stress related and the antioxidant profile of kaempferol, quercetin, and isoquercitrin. The flavonol compounds were able to act as scavengers of superoxide anion (but not hydrogen peroxide), hypochlorous acid, chloramine and nitric oxide. Although flavonoids are widely described as antioxidants and this activity is generally related to beneficial effects on human health, here we show important cytotoxic actions of three well known flavonoids. They were able to promote hemolysis which one was exacerbated on the presence of hypochlorous acid but not by AAPH radical. Therefore, despite they expected scavenger action over free radicals an oxidants, these compounds could be very lesive to living organisms by acting over erythrocytes and maybe other cellular types.

One hundred different 5.5-year-old Eucalyptus grandis x Eucalyptus urophylla wood clones were cooked to kappa number 15-17.5 and the resulting kraft pulps oxygen-delignified to kappa 9.5-11.5 under fixed conditions, except for chemical charges. Thirteen samples showing large variations in effective alkali requirement, pulp yield and O-stage efficiency and selectivity were selected for brightness reversion studies. These samples were bleached to 90-91% ISO by DEDD and DEDP sequences and their brightness stability and chemical characteristics determined. Heat reversion of the eucalyptus kraft pulps was strongly influenced by the wood supply, with brightness loss varying in the range of 2.1-3.6 and 0.8-1.7 %ISO for ODEDD and ODEDP bleached pulps, respectively. Pulps bleached by the ODEDP sequence showed reversion values 1.3-1.9 % ISO lower than those bleached by the ODEDD sequence. Pulp carbonyl content decreased by 35-40% during the final peroxide bleaching stage. Carbonyl and carboxyl groups correlated positively with brightness reversion, as did permanganate number and acid soluble lignin. Pulp final viscosity and metal and DCM extractives contents showed no significant correlation with brightness reversion. Pulping, oxygen delignification and ECF bleaching performances also showed no correlation with brightness reversion.
