Matrix selection and application is a crucial step in obtaining meaningful results with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry imaging (MSI). Most instruments have a large spatial, and data with adequate spatial resolution can frequently be obtained on a benchtop instrument. The matrix application workflow has been op...

Non-thermal plasma (NTP) is gaining increasing attention as a promising approach for advanced water treatment to degrade persistent organic pollutants. Aqueous solutions of sulfamethoxazole (4-amino-N-(5-methylisoxazol-3-yl)-benzensulfonamide, SMZ), an antibiotic largely employed for humans and animals and a widespread persistent pollutant of water...

The objective of the current work was to synthesize and characterize ferromagnetic activated carbon from peanut shells (PSs) and apply it for the degradation of methyl orange (MO) following the heterogeneous Fenton process. PSs were activated with phosphoric acid and potassium hydroxide at 1:1, 1:2, and 1:3 solid/liquid activation ratios and differ...

Herein, TiO2 single-tube (TiO2 ST-NT) powders with and without magnetite Fe3O4 nanoparticles (TiO2 ST-NT@Fe3O4NPs) are presented for the first time as excellent photocatalysts for the degradation of one of the most popular non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), naproxen (NPX). The TiO2 ST-NT powders were synthesized by anodization followed...

Long-lived radionuclides in our environment provide important information on natural and anthropogenic processes. Their presence and concentration reflect the balance of production and decay. Geological archives store such information and the nuclides can be chemically extracted from the bulk sample. Accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) represents a...
