Article Abstract
Ca-based magnetic bamboo-derived hydrochar described as Ca-MBHC was synthesized by one-pot pyrolysis, and was applied to remediation of lead (Pb) and tetracycline (TC) polluted water. Characterizations not only attested the loading of CaCO and Fe onto the hydrochar, but also demonstrated the magnetism of Ca-MBHC. Adsorption kinetic experiments showed that the Ca-MBHC could eliminate Pb(II) and TC during a wide range of pH, and appeared rapid uptake equilibrium within 240 and 60 min for Pb(II) and TC, severally. Adsorption isotherm experiments showed that the Ca-MBHC possessed highest adsorption of 475.58 mg/g concerning Pb(II), and heterogeneous uptake of 142.44 mg/g for TC. Furthermore, the Ca-MBHC could achieve Pb(II) binding owing to complexation, reduction, ion exchange and electrostatic attraction, whereas the TC uptake might be related to π-π stacking reciprocities, pore filling and hydrogen bonding. Overall, the Ca-MBHC could be viewed as an excellent adsorbent for scavenging Pb(II) and tetracycline from water.

Background: Majority of vestibular schwannoma (VS) patients have undergone gamma-knife radiosurgery (GKRS) with favorable results. Clinical evidence is derived from doses calculated with a type-a algorithm, which in this case assumes all material to be water. A type-b algorithm (Convolution algorithm [CA]) taking tissue heterogeneity into account is available.

F magnetic resonance imaging (F MRI) is gaining attention as an emerging diagnostic technology. Effective F MRI contrast agents (CAs) for in vivo applications require a long transverse (or spin-spin) relaxation time (), short longitudinal (or spin-lattice) relaxation time (), high fluorine content, and excellent biocompatibility. Here, we present a novel hyperbranched polymeric F MRI CA based on β-cyclodextrin and phosphorylcholine.

The enzyme immobilization technology has become a key tool in the field of enzyme applications; however, improving the activity recovery and stability of the immobilized enzymes is still challenging. Herein, we employed a magnetic carboxymethyl cellulose (MCMC) nanocomposite modified with ionic liquids (ILs) for covalent immobilization of lipase, and used Ca-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as the support skeleton and protective layer for immobilized enzymes. The ILs contained long side chains (eight CH units), which not only enhanced the hydrophobicity of the carrier and its hydrophobic interaction with the enzymes, but also provided a certain buffering effect when the enzyme molecules were subjected to compression.

The chemistry of contrast agents (CAs) for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) applications is an active area of research and, in recent work, it was shown that CA-based graphene oxide (GO) has valuable properties for biomedical uses. GO has a potential as MRI CAs thanks to several functionalities, like its ability to penetrate tissues and cell membranes, as well as easy coupling with therapeutic agents, therefore showing the potential for both a diagnostic and therapeutic role. In this study, we performed a thorough cleaning of the GO sample (synthesized using a modified Hummers method), minimizing the amount of residual manganese down to 73 ppm.

The loss of active components, weak acid resistance, and low recover efficiency of common Ca-based catalysts limited its further development and application. In this study, to effectively produce biodiesel from waste cooking oil (WCO), a green and recyclable magnetic acid-base bifunctional CoFe/biochar/CaO catalyst was prepared from sargassum and river snail shell waste via hydrothermal method. The catalysts' structure and properties were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), CO/NH temperature programmed desorption (CO/NH TPD), etc.
