ASSESSING ANTIBACTERIAL EFFICACY OF NANOPARTICLES FROM THREE PLANT EXTRACTS AGAINST E.COLI AND STREPTOCOCCI IN URBAN WASTEWATER

Silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) obtained through green syntheses are gaining remarkable interestin water treatment due to their excellent chemical, physical, and biological properties. Ag-NPs weresynthesized using three plant extracts: Carica papaya, Vernonia amygdalina, and Perillafrustescens var as reducing agent, and 6 mM of silver nitrate as prec...

ELECTROCHEMICAL INFLUENCE OF NIFUROXAZIDE ON DEHYDROGENASE ACTIVITY

Nifuroxazide is an antimicrobial drug from the nitrofuran group, which is used in the treatment of acute bacterial intestinal infections. Its mechanism of action is based on the reduction of the nitro group in bacterial cells, which produces reactive metabolites that permanently damage enzymes and the genetic material of microorganisms. Enzymes of ...

OPTIMIZATION OF PROCESS VARIABLES FOR THE PRODUCTION OF FATTY ACID METHYL ESTERS FROM BIGPOD SESBANIA SEED OIL

This study explores the potential of Bigpod Sesbania seed oil as feedstock for production of biodiesel. The extracted oil was transformed to biodiesel via transesterification reaction using potassium hydroxide as catalyst. The process variables methanol-to-oil molar ratio (4:1–8:1), catalyst concentration (0.1–0.5 wt%), reaction time (3...

INFLUENCE OF PROCESS PARAMETERS ON THE PHYSICAL AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF EXTRUDED POLYSTYRENE

In this work, I aim to examine the various influences of process parameters on the physical andmechanical properties of extruded polystyrene. Since XPS belongs to the group of thermoplasticpolymers, its properties are significantly affected by thermal treatment, particularly temperatureand pressure. However, in addition to these key factors, this p...
