Photocatalytic degradation is an effective method to alleviate environmental pollution which is caused by organic pollutants. The expanding natural contamination has attracted the overall scientists to deal with the advancement of photocatalyst effectively depends on semiconductor for the treatment of defiled water assets by different natural poisons that are delivered from numerous industries. In this work, the research progress of properties and applications of photocatalytic and antimicrobial activities and understanding of the toxicity mechanisms of different metal oxide nanoparticles are reviewed. The metal oxide nanoparticles are a wide band hole semiconductor that can be eager to create electron opening sets when transmitted with light. Photographs are an actuated electron opening that instigates power hydrogen, oxygen, and debases inorganic/natural/organic mixes to make power. This review aims to examine the wide biological and mechanisms of photocatalytic degradation and antimicrobial applications.

“…The seeds of date palm ( Phoenix dactylifera ) are considered byproducts that are massively disposed of daily, particularly in Middle Eastern countries. The costless seeds of date palm plants are a source of many components with high nutritional value such as oil, fibers, minerals, proteins, amino acids, fatty acids and phenolic compounds [ 16 ]. The date seeds exhibited high antioxidant activity when compared to standard antioxidants due to their phenolic compounds such as naringenin and rutin [ 17 ].…”

Background Plants are considered the primary source of many principal bioactive compounds that have been utilized in a wide range of applications including the pharmaceutical and biotechnological industries. Therefore, there is an imperative need to modulate the production of natural bioactive components. The present study aimed to determine the importance of dried and pulverized date palm seeds (DPS) as a natural elicitor for the synthesis of secondary metabolites in Lotus arabicus L. Results The presence of various antioxidant compounds, simple sugars, amino acids, fatty acids and reasonable mineral contents was distinct in the phytochemical characterization of DPS. The major components detected in DPS analysis were the 5-(hydroxymethyl) furfural and 2,3-dihydro-3,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-4H-pyranone. The induced callus of L. arabicus (seven weeks old) was supplemented with DPS at different concentrations (0, 2, 4, 8 and 10 g/l) in culture media. Treatment with 8 g/l DPS induced the highest antioxidant capacity, ascorbic acid content and secondary metabolites (total phenolics and flavonoids) in the produced callus. Stress biomarkers (hydrogen peroxide and malondialdehyde) were found in the control ranges except at 10 g/l DPS. The expression patterns of key genes involoved in secondary metabolism modulation, such as phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL), chalcone synthase (CHS), chalcone isomerase (CHI), flavonol synthase (FLS) and deoxyxylulose phosphate reductoisomerase (DXR), were triggered after DPS treatments. Moreover, the quantitative profiling of phenolic and flavonoid compounds showed that supplementation with DPS, especially at 8 g/l, led to pronounced increases in most of the measured compounds. Conclusion The marked upregulation of eliciting-responsive genes and overproduction of secondary metabolites provide molecular-based evidence for intensifying the principal pathways of phenylpropanoid, flavonoid and terpenoid biosynthesis. Overall, the present in vitro study highlights the stimulating capacity of DPS utilization to improve the bioactive components of L. arabicus at the physiological and molecular levels, enhancing its potential as a medicinal herb.

The paper presents the results of experimental studies to determine the limiting stage of the adsorption kinetics of the methylene blue dye by the biomass of the crushed peel of apricot pits. Morphological studies of the surface of the peel of apricot pits were carried out using a scanning electron microscope of the brand “TESCAN MIRA 3 LMU” (Czech Republic). Adsorption studies were carried out under static conditions by treating the biomass of the apricot pit peel with solutions of methylene blue of specified concentrations for a certain time. On the basis of the obtained data, the kinetic dependences were constructed and the necessary indicators were calculated. It was found that the sorption capacity of the apricot pit biomass under experimental conditions is 0.565 mmol/g. The results of the experiment were processed using the Microsoft office Excel software in the framework of the diffusion model, and an intradiffusion kinetic model of sorption was obtained. The constants of the intradiffusion kinetic model of sorption and the parameters of the internal diffusion coefficient are calculated, and the contribution of external diffusion to the adsorption process is determined. It is revealed that the adsorption process is limited by external diffusion.
