“…To confront this major challenge to degrade these wastewater pollutants, different biochemical and physiochemical techniques, mainly fungal and bacterial decomposition [19][20][21], enzymatic degradation [22], coagulation [23,24], adsorption [25][26][27], photocatalytic oxidation [28][29][30], Fenton oxidation [30][31][32][33], advanced oxidation processes [34,35], and chemical reduction [36][37][38][39][40][41][42], have been frequently employed to decolorize and scavenge these colorants from waste water.…”

In alkaline media, well-characterized gelatin-stabilized palladium (GPd) nanoparticles catalyze the reduction of the azo group containing pollutant dye, Acid Orange 7 (AO7) by sodium borohydride (NaBH 4 ) to 1-amino-2-napthol and sulfanilic acid. Kinetic observations and detailed FTIR studies suggests that the reaction follows Langmuir-Hinshelwood kinetic model, where during the reaction both AO7 and borohydride are adsorbed on the GPd surface. Plots of lnk o versus ln[AO7] or ln [NaBH 4 ] show that the order of reaction with respect to AO7 and NaBH 4 remains almost same over different molar ratios of [NaBH 4 ]/[AO7]. The catalyzed reaction shows an initial induction period (t 0 ) due to a surface-restructuring process of GPd nanoparticles, and (1/t 0 ) can be defined as the rate of surface restructuring. The activation energy of the catalyzed reaction and energy of the surface-restructuring process of GPd are estimated as 22 ± 3 and 25 ± 7 kJ M −1 , respectively. C

“…For over a century, despite the refined and efficient methods accrued for the synthesis of thiadiazole, a fivemembered aromatic system having three heteroatoms at symmetrical positions has been studied extensively, owing to its interesting pharmacological activities [7][8][9][10][11][12]. Based on our prior research on benzothiazole derivatives as anticonvulsant nuclei [13], it was found that these potential agents lacked the pharmacophoric element of a hydrophobic domain.…”

Various 2-[(6-substituted-1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl)amino]-N-[5-substituted-phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl]acetamides were synthesized with a prospective exploration of "lead hopping", using pharmacophoric elements for in vivo anticonvulsant activity. This yielded three potent candidates (5i, 5t, and 5u) in the preliminary screening employing the maximal electroshock seizure (MES) and the subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole (scPTZ) test, showing minimal neurotoxicity. Their quantitative study indicated an increase of nearly 2-10 times for the MES test and 7- to 67-fold for the scPTZ test in the protective index, the keystone in drug discovery for anticonvulsant activity.

“…Biomass is the organic material originating from plants, animals, and other organisms [1], and sequestrates carbon and captures sunlight in plant materials through photosynthesis [8]. Corn grain, stover, soybean, switchgrass, straw, and wood chips are commonly used biomass for energy purposes in the U.S. [9].…”

“…Many renewable energy sources have been developed [5]. Biomass energy is a unique renewable energy source that can be combusted to generate heat and power as well as converted into biofuels, such as bioethanol or biodiesel [1,6]. The U.S. Department of Energy has advocated using biomass energy to provide a significant portion of America's energy needs, reduce foreign oil imports, reinforce national energy security, boost the rural economy, and improve environmental quality [7].…”

Biomass energy can mitigate climate change, revitalize rural economies, and achieve energy independence. Using biomass energy as subject matter content, American agricultural education programs at the secondary school level can prepare future agricultural professionals with science, technology, engineering, and mathematics skills to solve complex issues. Through a state-wide survey (N = 100) in the U.S., this study found agriculture teachers' interest in biomass energy is motivated by economic, environmental, pedagogical, and learning factors. Nine relevant topics were determined as high training needs perceived by teachers. Teacher educators are recommended to incorporate the four factors and nine topics in planning, delivering, and evaluating in-service training programs of biomass energy for agriculture teachers.
