Engineered nanomaterials are increasingly used in everyday life applications and, consequence, significant amounts being released into the environment. From soil, water, and air they can reach organelles of edible plants, potentially impacting food chain human health. The potential environmental health impact these nanoscale materials is public concern. TiO2 ZnO among most terms production amounts. Our study aimed at evaluating effects large-scale (~100 nm) (~200 nanoparticles on soybean...
Abstract This study is focused on the determination of some important antibiotics from different classes in waste water samples using solid phase extraction followed by high performance liquid chromatography with two detectors, diode array and mass spectrometer positive ionisation mode. The investigated include three penicillins (amoxicillin, ampicillin, penicillin G), cephalosporins (ceftazidime, ceftriaxone), tetracyclines (tetracycline, doxycycline). studied were extracted...
Although a vast number of Aloe species are known, only the vera and arborescens currently used by cosmetic pharmaceutical industries. Therefore, current study aims to complete existent literature data with new information on phytochemical composition some lesser-known species, main focus carotenoids fatty acids. Among analyzed aculeata ferox had highest content in carotenoids, major pigments being lutein β-carotene (according HPLC analysis). The acid profile each was analysed GC-MS....
Natural honey bee products, especially propolis are well known for their biological properties. However, less the impact of propolis' single phenolic substances and variation across different landscapes, geographic locations botanical origins. Here, we determined chemical composition samples collected in areas Romania with a continental climate. Main groups polyphenols, as individual phenolics (phenolic acids flavonoids), were identified quantified. The antimicrobial activity ethanolic...
In this data article, we present supplementary related to the research article entitled "Starch-coated green synthesized magnetite nanoparticles for removal of textile dye Optilan Blue from aqueous media" Stan et al., 2019. Data interpretations are included in The starch-coated Fe3O4 (ST-coated NPs) were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and high resolution transmission (HRTEM) illustrate shape surface coating nanoparticles. Moreover, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) technique was...
Egg yolks represent a common foodstuff in the human diet and are an important source of nutrients including lipids carotenoids. The aim this study was to compare carotenoid, fatty acid vitamin E contents yolk eggs from nine hen breeds (Barred Plymouth Rock, Speckled Italian, Black Red Rhode Island, Silver Laced Wyandotte, Gold Araucana, Partridge Brahma Yellow Cochin) raised barns enclosed house. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) used for analyses, reversed phase-high performance...
This study aimed to characterize raw honeys from different geographical origins in Romania, respect of chemical composition, microbiological examination and evaluate their probiotic potential. The physico-chemical determinations were performed APHIS-DIA Laboratory, Cluj-Napoca, using standard validated methods. Bacterial identification was for each sample colony type Vitek® 2 Compact 15 system PCR amplification 16S rDNA bacterial universal primers (27F, 1492R), species being confirm by...
Apricots are well known for the high content of bioactive compounds such as carotenoids, polyphenols, vitamins and minerals. Several studies have pointed out chemical composition or biological effects apricots, but limited information available regarding stability active during storage processing. The aim this study was to determine major carotenoids in commercial dried apricots storage.Carotenoids were extracted monthly from kept a dark environment, at room temperature, twelve months. Total...
This study describes a procedure for the determination of two textile dyes (Nylosan Red N-2RBL-azo and Optilan Blue MF-GL-anthraquinone) from wastewater by solid phase extraction liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (SPE-LC/ESI-MS/MS) analysis. Four types Strata SPE cartridges (C18-U, C18-E, WAX/NH2, SAX) were tested; best results being obtained on WAX/NH2. The detection was carried out with an API 3200 QTRAP ESI-MS/MS system using TurboV source in ESI...
The printing, textile, wood and plastics industries have an important environmental impact, since they consume large amounts of water produce highly polluted waste waters (Sostar-Turk et al., 2005).The current study aimed to investigate several effluents generated by different based on their physicochemical parameters evaluate possible impact the body.Effluents from two a industry Cluj County were analysed for various such as temperature, pH, biochemical chemical oxygen demand, total...
Persistent pollutants such as pharmaceuticals, pesticides, musk fragrances, and dyes are frequently detected in different environmental compartments negatively impact the environment humans. Understanding impacts of diffuse on plants is still limited, especially at realistic concentrations contaminants. We studied effects key representatives two major classes (nine antibiotics six textile dyes) leaf carotenoid (violaxanthin neoxanthin) content wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) using pollutant...
Antibiotics are natural or semi-synthetic compounds used for many decades in human, veterinary and plant medicine to prevent and/or treat bacterial infections also promote productivity animal farming.Traces of antibiotics found waste, surface ground waters, the main source water pollution being considered waste waters from industrial production, hospitals, livestock farms, households incompletely metabolized drugs.The uncontrolled input can lead some unexpected health effects an increased...
After germination process, the green seedlings accumulate important quantities of bioactive compounds such as: enzymes, vitamins, minerals, chlorophylls and nutrients. The current study presents a comparison between different their antioxidant capacity, after seedling growth five seeds (arugula, lentil, wheat, beans mustard) both on soil, in pot (natural system), directly cotton wool soaked, water (artificial system). In this carotenoids content capacity were analysed. data present showed...
