Inhibition of Water Activated by Far Infrared Functional Ceramics on Proliferation of Hepatoma Cells

Abstract

Rare earth (RE)/tourmaline composite materials prepared by the precipitation method are added to the ceramic raw materials at a certain percentage and sintered into RE functional ceramics with high far infrared emission features. Then the far infrared functional ceramics are used to interact with water. The influence of the ceramics on the physical parameters of water is investigated, and the effect of the activated water on the growth of Bel-7402 hepatoma cells cultured in vitro is further studied. The results indicate that, compared with the raw water, the water activated by the ceramics can inhibit the proliferation of hepatoma cells, with statistical probability P < 0.01, which means that the effect is significant. It can be explained that the water activated by the ceramics has a higher concentration of H+, which decreases the potential difference across the cell membrane to release the apoptosis inducing factor (AIF). After entering the cells, the activated water stimulates the mitochondria to produce immune substances that lead tumor cells to apoptosis.

Improving the Performance of Pd for Formic Acid Dehydrogenation by Introducing Barium Titanate

“…The molecular vibrations in the reaction medium are activated with the far-infrared radiation. The surface tension of the solution is reduced by the breakage of hydrogen bonds, which enhances the movement and dispersion of [PdCl 4 ] 2– , leading to small particle sizes of Pd nanoparticles. , …”

Well-designed internal electric field from nano-ferroelectrics promotes formic acid oxidation on Pd

“…Under the far-infrared radiation from tourmaline, molecular vibration is activated in the reaction medium and the surface tension of the solution decreases by breaking hydrogen bonds. 43 Thus, the movement and dispersion of [PdCl 4 ] 2− are enhanced. When the amount of TNPs is further increased, however, the Pd NPs agglomerate again (Fig.…”
