Fractionation of sugar beet pulp by introducing ion-exchange groups

Sugar beet pulp (SBP) was chemically modified with the goal to utilize this method for the preparation of water-soluble polysaccharides. Yields of the trimethylammoniumhydroxypropylated (TMAHP) polysaccharide fractions prepared under vacuum in absence of NaOH or KOH, as well as their molar masses, were higher than those obtained when the samples were only extracted with hydroxide at ambient pressure. The hydroxypropylsulfonated (HPS) fractions extracted at ambient pressure with NaOH had higher yields and molar mass than the TMAHP fractions extracted under vacuum with KOH. Introduction of both ion-exchange groups in one step under vacuum with NaOH gave better yields than with KOH, but smaller than for the solely sulfonated sample. The molar masses of chemically modified fractions were smaller than those extracted only with alkali or water. According to the monosaccharide composition all the fractions are mixtures of arabinogalactans and rhamnogalacturonoans.     

Extraction,characterization and spontaneous emulsifying properties of pectin from sugar beet pulp

The effects of organic acid extractants on the yield and characteristics of pectin from sugar beet pulp were investigated with citric acid, malic acid and lactic acid at different pH (1.5 and 2.0) and time (1 h and 2 h). The results demonstrated that the yields of pectins were directly correlated with the decrease of pH and reaction time, and the optimum yield of 17.2% was obtained at pH 1.5 and 2 h. Furthermore, the acid type also affected the physicochemical characteristics of pectin, especially on the esterification degree (42–71), galacturonic acid content (60.2–77.8%), emulsion activity (35.2–40.1%) and emulsion stability (62.1–79.4%), and a relatively single pectin mainly consisted of homogalacturonan could be obtained under a suitable reaction condition, which was an excellent crude material for the production of emulsion activity.     

Adsorption of cationic dye from aqueous solutions by date pits: Equilibrium,kinetic, thermodynamic studies,and batch adsorber design

The retention profile of methylene blue from aqueous solutions onto the solid adsorbent date pits has been investigated in a batch system. The characterization and adsorption efficiency for methylene blue was evaluated using date pits. Fourier Transform Infra-Red, Scanning Electron Microscope, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller analysis were performed to determine the characteristics of the material. The effect of contact time, initial dye concentration, adsorbent dosage, temperature, and solution pH were investigated. The adsorption was found to increase with increasing time, decreasing concentration of dye, decreasing temperature and increasing dosage up to equilibrium values which was 20 min, 25°C, and 0.1 g adsorbent, respectively. The adsorption was favorable at high and low pH (pH 3, pH 7). The adsorption equilibrium data were best fitted by Freundlich isotherm. The adsorption kinetics was found to follow the pseudo second order kinetic model. Thermodynamic parameters such as free energy, enthalpy, and entropy were calculated and found to be ?4.6 kJ/mole, ?7.9 kJ/mole, and ?11.8 kJ/mole, respectively. The thermodynamic parameters of the uptake of methylene blue onto the date pits indicated that, the process is exothermic and proceeds spontaneously at low temperature. A single stage batch adsorber was designed for adsorption of methylene blue by Date Pits based on optimum isotherm.     

Adsorption of methyl violet from aqueous solutions by the biochars derived from crop residues

The adsorption of methyl violet by the biochars from crop residues was investigated with batch and leaching experiments--adsorption capacity varied with their feedstock in the following order: canola straw char>peanut straw char>soybean straw char>rice hull char. This order was generally consistent with the amount of negative charge of the biochars. Zeta potentials and Fourier transform infrared photoacoustic spectroscopy, combined with adsorption isotherms and effect of ionic strength, indicated that adsorption of methyl violet on biochars involved electrostatic attraction, specific interaction between the dye and carboxylate and phenolic hydroxyl groups on the biochars, and surface precipitation. Leaching experiments showed that 156 g of rice hull char almost completely removed methyl violet from 18.2 L of water containing 1.0 mmol/L of methyl violet. The biochars had high removal efficiency for methyl violet and could be effective adsorbents for removal of methyl violet from wastewater.     

Thermo-mechanical processing of sugar beet pulp. III. Study of extruded films improvement with various plasticizers and cross-linkers

Thermoplastic sugar beet pulp (thermo-mechanical processing was discussed in previous studies) was formed into film strips by extrusion. Film tensile properties are discussed according to the molecular structure of external plasticizer. Sorbitol, fructose and adipic acid have a marked antiplasticizing effect, while urea and xylitol gave higher ultimate tensile stress than glycerol for a comparable strain at break. Xylitol can be considered as the best plasticizer with UTS and EL of, respectively, 4.9 MPa and 11.3% and water absorption (85% RH, 25 °C) was less than 25%. Glycidyl methacrylate was directly used in the extrusion process as cross-linker. In high humidity atmosphere (97% RH, 25 °C), film water absorption was then kept under 40% while tensile strength and strain were improved of 50% and with a 30 min UV post-treatment the mass gain in absorption was even less than 30% after 5 days.     

Metals sorption from aqueous solutions by Kluyveromyces marxianus: Process optimization,equilibrium modeling and chemical characterization

The dead Kluyveromyces marxianus biomass, a fermentation industry waste, was used to explore its sorption potential for lead, mercury, arsenic, cobalt, and cadmium as a function of pH, biosorbent dosage, contact time, agitation speed, and initial metal concentration. The equilibrium data fitted the Langmuir model better for cobalt and cadmium, but Freundlich isotherm for all metals tested. At equilibrium, the maximum uptake capacity (Qmax) was highest for lead followed by mercury, arsenic, cobalt, and cadmium. The RL values ranged between 0–1, indicating favorable sorption of all test metals by the biosorbent. The maximum Kf value of Pb showed its efficient removal from the solution. However, multi-metal analysis depicted that sorption of all metals decreased except Pb. The potentiometric titration of biosorbent revealed the presence of functional groups viz. amines, carboxylic acids, phosphates, and sulfhydryl group involved in heavy metal sorption. The extent of contribution of functional groups and lipids to biosorption was in the order: carboxylic>lipids>amines>phosphates. Blocking of sulfhydryl group did not have any significant effect on metal sorption.     

Biosorption of Malachite Green from aqueous solutions onto aerobic granules: kinetic and equilibrium studies

Batch experiments were conducted to study the biosorption characteristics of a cationic dye, Malachite Green (MG), onto aerobic granules. Effects of pH, aerobic granule dosage, contact time and solution temperature on MG biosorption by aerobic granules were evaluated. Simultaneity the thermodynamic analysis was also performed. The results showed that alkaline pH was favorable for the biosorption of MG and chemisorption seemed to play a major role in the biosorption process. Kinetic studies indicate that MG biosorption on aerobic granules in the system follows the pseudo-second order kinetics. The equilibrium time was 60 min for both 50 and 60 mg/L and 120 min for both 70 and 80 mg/L MG concentrations, respectively. Moreover, the experimental equilibrium data have been analyzed using the linearized forms of Langmuir, Freundlich, and Redlich-Peterson isotherms and the Langmuir isotherm was found to provide the best theoretical correlation of the experimental data for the biosorption of MG. The monolayer biosorption (saturation) capacities were determined to be 56.8 mg of MG per gram of aerobic granules at 30 degrees C. Thermodynamic analysis show that biosorption follows an endothermic path of the positive value of Delta H( composite function) and spontaneous with negative value of Delta G( composite function).     

Removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions by adsorption onto hazelnut shell activated carbon: kinetic and equilibrium studies

The adsorption Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions onto hazelnut shell activated carbon was carried out by varying the parameters such as pH, initial Cr(VI) concentration and temperature. The experimental data fitted well to the pseudo first-order kinetic model and then the rate constants were evaluated. The Langmuir isotherm provided the best correlation for Cr(VI) onto the activated carbon. Adsorption capacity was calculated from the Langmuir isotherm as 170 mg/g at an initial pH of 1.0 for the 1000 mg/l Cr(VI) solution. Thermodynamic parameters were evaluated and the adsorption is endothermic showing monolayer adsorption of Cr(VI).     

Biosorption kinetics and isotherm studies of Acid Red 57 by dried Cephalosporium aphidicola cells from aqueous solutions

Equilibrium, kinetics and thermodynamic studies on the removal of Acid Red 57 (AR57) by biosorption onto dried Cephalosporium aphidicola (C. aphidicola) cells have been investigated in a batch system with respect to pH, contact time and temperature. The results showed that the equilibrium time was attained within 40 min and the maximum biosorption capacity of AR57 dye onto C. aphidicola cells was 2.08 × 10⁻⁴ mol g⁻¹ or 109.41 mg g⁻¹ obtained after contact with 0.4 g dm⁻³ biosorbent concentration, pH₀ of 1 and at a temperature of 20 °C. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model was observed to provide the best correlation of the experimental data among the kinetic models studied. Biosorption isotherm models were developed and the Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin–Radushkevich (D–R) isotherm models were conformed well to the experimental data. The changes of free energy, enthalpy and entropy of biosorption were also evaluated for the biosorption of AR57 dye onto C. aphidicola cells.     

Biosorption of Acid Black 172 and Congo Red from aqueous solution by nonviable Penicillium YW 01: Kinetic study, equilibrium isotherm and artificial neural network modeling

The main objective of this work was to investigate the biosorption performance of nonviable Penicillium YW 01 biomass for removal of Acid Black 172 metal-complex dye (AB) and Congo Red (CR) in solutions. Maximum biosorption capacities of 225.38 and 411.53 mg g⁻¹ under initial dye concentration of 800 mg L⁻¹, pH 3.0 and 40 °C conditions were observed for AB and CR, respectively. Biosorption data were successfully described with Langmuir isotherm and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The Weber-Morris model analysis indicated that intraparticle diffusion was the limiting step for biosorption of AB and CR onto biosorbent. Analysis based on the artificial neural network and genetic algorithms hybrid model indicated that initial dye concentration and temperature appeared to be the most influential parameters for biosorption process of AB and CR onto biosorbent, respectively. Characterization of the biosorbent and possible dye-biosorbent interaction were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy.     

Protein synthesis in mitochondria purified from roots, leaves and flowers of sugar beet

Highly purified, intact and functional mitochondria were isolated from roots and leaves of a number of fertile and male-sterile lines of sugar beet ( Beta vulgaris L.). Intact and functional mitochondria were successfully isolated from the flowers of fertile plants, but not from the flowers of male-sterile plants. Several alternative methods for the homogenization of male-sterile flowers were tried. Their failure suggests that the mitochondria from male-sterile flowers are more sensitive to mechanical damage than mitochondria from fertile, or other organs of male-sterile, plants.
In organello protein synthesis was optimized with respect to the total concentration of amino acids, the concentration of [³⁵S]-methionine, pH and respiratory substrate. Inhibitor experiments showed that the mitochondrial preparations contained mitochondrial translational activity only. With the exception of one band, no processing or proteolytic breakdown in either root or leaf mitochondrial protein synthesis products could be detected in pulse-chase experiments. Submitochondrial fractionation experiments showed the presence of two soluble polypeptides, whereas all other polypeptides were membrane bound.
The polypeptide patterns of root, leaf and flower mitochondria were very similar with the exception of 4 polypeptides involved in glycine oxidation. These 4 polypeptides were present in large amounts in leaf mitochondria and just detectable in flower mitochondria. The patterns of polypeptides syntesized in mitochondria isolated from roots, leaves and flowers also showed a number of organ-specific differences. Six qualitative and 6 quantitative differences were found between mitochondria isolated from these three organs. No unique polypeptides were found to be synthesized either by flower mitochondria or by mitochondria from roots and leaves of male-sterile plants compared to their male-fertile counterparts.     

Promotion of triplex formation by a fixed N-form sugar puckering: thermodynamic and kinetic studies.

We analyzed the effect of a fixed N-form sugar puckering of TFO (triplex-forming oligonucleotide) on the pyrimidine motif triplex formation at neutral pH, a condition where pyrimidine motif triplexes are unstable. Both thermodynamic and kinetic analyses revealed that the binding constant of the pyrimidine motif triplex formation at pH 6.8 with modified TFO containing the fixed N-form sugar puckering was about 20-times larger than that observed with unmodified TFO. Kinetic data also demonstrated that the observed increase in the binding constant at neutral pH by the fixed N-form sugar puckering resulted from the considerable decrease in the dissociation rate constant. Our results certainly support the idea that the fixed N-form sugar puckering of TFO could be a key modification and may eventually lead to progress in therapeutic applications of the antigene strategy in vivo.     

Mercury removal from aqueous solution by dried biomass of indigenous Vibrio parahaemolyticus PG02: Kinetic,equilibrium, and thermodynamic studies

In this study, for the first time the potential use of dried Vibrio parahaemolyticus PG02 to remove mercury from synthetic effluent was investigated by considering equilibrium, kinetic, and thermodynamic aspects. The results indicated that Hg²⁺ biosorption was best described by the pseudo-second order model. In addition, it was found that intraparticle diffusion was not the sole rate-limiting step. The ion-exchange mechanism was a predominant biosorption mechanism in the first 15 min of contact. The Langmuir isotherm better described the equilibrium data of Hg²⁺ biosorption than the Freundlich isotherm. According to this model, the maximum biosorption capacity was found to be 9.63 × 10⁻⁴ mol g⁻¹ at optimum conditions (pH = 6.0 and temperature =35 °C).     

Characterization of membrane-bound MgATPases, purified by aqueous two-phase partitioning, from young sugar beet roots

Membrane-bound MgATPase activity from roots of young sugar beet ( Beta vulgaris L. cv. Monohill) was investigated in a membrane fraction purified by partition in an aqueous polymer two-phase system. After two steps of "washing" with fresh bottom phase (rich in dextran), the polyethylene glycol rich top phase (U₃) was practically free of mitochondrial membranes (cytochrome oxidase), and the remaining MgATPase activity showed high substrate specificity for ATP. An optimum for the MgATPase activity was found at pH 7. The activation by Na⁺ or K⁺ was strongest on the acid side without any observable shift in pH optimum. Oligomycin had no effect, but vanadate strongly inhibited the U₃ MgATPase and the K⁺ activation was lost. The complex activation pattern achieved by varying the Na⁺/K⁺ ratio at constant total concentration was interpreted as a synergistic (Na⁺+ K⁺)-activation. The U₃ fraction MgATP-ase activity showed a 4-fold increase in the presence of 0.01% Triton X-100 implying that the MgATPase activity is located in vesicles of which 75% or more are sealed with the ATP binding site on the inside. Comparison with the properties of plasma membrane. ATPases from other plants indicated that the U₃ fraction MgATPase was mainly of plasma membrane origin.     

Adsorption of Methyl Parathion from Aqueous Solutions Using Mango Kernels: Equilibrium,Kinetic and Thermodynamic Studies

The adsorption of methyl parathion from aqueous solutions by the low-cost and abundant adsorbent mango kernel was studied in a batch adsorption system. The adsorption was studied as a function of pH, contact time, initial pesticide concentration, adsorbent dose, and temperature. A maximum adsorption of 98% ± 1% was achieved. Physicochemical characterization of the adsorbent was carried out by EDXRF, BET, and CHNS analysis. Freundlich, Langmuir, and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherms were employed to evaluate the adsorption capacity of the adsorbent. Lagergren, Morris-Weber, and Reichenberg equations were employed to study the kinetics of the adsorption process. Thermodynamic parameters Δ H, Δ S, and Δ G were computed. The developed adsorption method was applied to real environmental samples.     

On the biosorption,by brown seaweed, <Emphasis Type=Italic>Lobophora variegata</Emphasis>, of Ni(II) from aqueous solutions: equilibrium and thermodynamic studies

The biosorption equilibrium isotherms of Ni(II) onto marine brown algae Lobophora variegata, which was chemically-modified by CaCl₂ were studied and modeled. To predict the biosorption isotherms and to determine the characteristic parameters for process design, twenty-three one-, two-, three-, four- and five-parameter isotherm models were applied to experimental data. The interaction among biosorbed molecules is attractive and biosorption is carried out on energetically different sites and is an endothermic process. The five-parameter Fritz–Schluender model gives the most accurate fit with high regression coefficient, R ² (0.9911–0.9975) and F-ratio (118.03–179.96), and low standard error, SE (0.0902–0.0.1556) and the residual or sum of square error, SSE (0.0012–0.1789) values to all experimental data in comparison to other models. The biosorption isotherm models fitted the experimental data in the order: Fritz–Schluender (five-parameter) > Freundlich (two-parameter) > Langmuir (two-parameter) > Khan (three-parameter) > Fritz–Schluender (four-parameter). The thermodynamic parameters such as ΔG ⁰, ΔH ⁰ and ΔS ⁰ have been determined, which indicates the sorption of Ni(II) onto L. variegata was spontaneous and endothermic in nature.
