Incubation of guanosine and Sudan III induces the formation of a stable adduct, which may be identified using a spectrophotometric technique and mass spectroscopy. The high nucleophilicity of the C-8 position and its ...

Large quantities of textile effluents have been generated in the dyeing of fibers with large load of inorganic salts, organic compounds difficult degradation and intense color, raising many concerns mainly due to its large ...

A large family of azo dyes have been developed and used in the textile industry, including for leather tainting, and are therefore expected to exhibit strong interactions with collagen-based materials. Here we investigate ...

The textile sector is one of the main contributors to the pollution of water resources due to the release of large volumes of effluents which contain high organic load and highly visible coloring. The diversity of products ...

Synthetic textile dyes have considerable molecular complexity, which makes these compounds highly stable and resistant to different types of treatments. Azo dyes represent the most commonly used group of dyes in textile ...

The potential of Penicillium chrysogenum to decolorize azo dyes and a real industrial textile wastewater was studied. P. chrysogenum was able to decolorize and degrade three azo dyes (200 mg L(-1)), either independently ...
