In-Situ FTIR and Laser Induced Fluorescence RONS Characterization of Atmospheric Pressure Nanosecond-Pulsed Surface DBD Plasma for Indirect Treatments of E. Coli

Ivo Furno, Fabio Avino, Rita Agus, Lorenzo Ibba

We study the bactericidal efficacy of surface dielectric barrier discharge low-temperature plasma treatments, powered by nanosecond high voltage pulses. We achieve similar to 4-log reduction in Escherichia coli population, after 10 min treatments, at a dis ...

Photochemical oxidation of phenols and anilines mediated by phenoxyl radicals in aqueous solution

Urs von Gunten, Stephanie Christa Remke

Reactive intermediates formed upon irradiation of chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM) contribute to the degradation of various organic contaminants in surface waters. Besides well-studied "short-lived" photo oxidants, such as triplet state CDOM (3 ...

Nighttime chemistry of biomass burning emissions in urban areas: A dual mobile chamber study

Athanasios Nenes

Residential biomass burning for heating purposes is an important source of air pollutants during winter. Here we test the hypothesis that significant secondary organic aerosol production can take place even during winter nights through oxidation of the emi ...

Using High-Temporal-Resolution Ambient Data to Investigate Gas-Particle Partitioning of Ammonium over Different Seasons

Athanasios Nenes

Ammonium is one of the dominant inorganic water-soluble ions in fine particulate matter (PM2.5). In this study, source apportionment and thermodynamic equilibrium models were used to analyze the relationship between pH and the partitioning of ammonium (eps ...

Valorization of biomass derivatives through the conversion of phenol over silica-supported Mo-Re oxide catalysts

Ricardo Javier Serpell Carriquiry

Liquid-phase hydrodeoxygenation of phenol over silica-supported MoOx-ReOx catalysts was investigated at 300 degrees C and 5 MPa of H-2. Mixed-oxides catalysts with similar surface metal density (2.3 atoms of metal per nm(2) of SiO2) but different relative ...

Mechanistic Study of Diaryl Ether Bond Cleavage during Palladium-Catalyzed Lignin Hydrogenolysis

Jeremy Luterbacher

Hydrogenolysis has emerged as one of the most effective means of converting polymeric lignin into monoaromatic fragments of value. Reported yields may be higher than for other methods and can exceed the theoretical yields estimated from measures of the con ...

Functional Models of the Nickel Pincer Nucleotide Cofactor of Lactate Racemase

Xile Hu, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Matthew Wodrich, Huijie Pan, Renyi Shi

A novel nickel pincer cofactor was recently discovered in lactate racemase. Reported here are three synthetic nickel pincer complexes that are both structural and functional models of the pincer cofactor in lactate racemase. DFT computations suggest the ip ...

Nitrate formation during ozonation as a surrogate parameter for abatement of micropollutants and the N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) formation potential

Urs von Gunten, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Jun Ma

In this study, nitrate formation from ammonium and/or dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) was investigated as a novel surrogate parameter to evaluate the abatement of micropollutants during ozonation of synthetic waters containing natural organic matter (NOM) ...

Structural studies of Mycobacterium tuberculosis DprE1 interacting with its inhabitors

Stewart Cole, Jérémie Piton, Shi-Yan Caroline Foo

The flavoenzyme DprEl catalyses a crucial step in arabinan production for cell wall biosynthesis in Mycobacterium tuberculosis and is a highly vulnerable drug target. It was first discovered using benzothiazinones (BTZ): exquisitely potent bactericidal age ...

Antioxidant Promotion of Tyrosine Nitration in the Presence of Copper(II)

Hubert Girault, Liang Qiao

Copper(II) is known to catalyze the generation of reactive nitrogen species in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, nitrite or nitric oxide, leading to tyrosine nitration, a biomarker for free radical species associated diseases. Here, we find that biologica ...
