An electrochemical sensor based on an amino-functionalized iron NH2-MIL-101(Fe) metal-organic framework (MOF)/Pd nanoparticles (NPs) composite-modified screen-printed electrode (SPE) is prepared for the simultaneous determination of norepinephrine (NEPI) and acetaminophen (ACP). The NH2-MIL-101(Fe) MOF/Pd NPs/SPE electrochemical sensor shows a significant enhancement in the response peak current of NEPI, as compared to bare SPE. This suggests that the unique features of NH2-MIL-101(Fe) MOF/Pd NPs composite-modified SPE improve the electrocatalytic oxidation of NEPI. Such a synergistic effect between NH2-MIL-101(Fe) MOF and Pd NPs results in a significant enhancement in the response, where the MOF's high surface area combines with the high electron-transfer rate and the abundance of catalytically active sites afforded by the Pd NPs. The differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) method was obtained for quantitative determination of NEPI and high sensitivity was observed in NEPI determination with the calibration slope of 0.0327, µA µM-1. The developed NH2-MIL-101(Fe) MOF/Pd NPs/SPE sensor presents a low limit of detection of 0.007 µM toward NEPI determination. The developed NH2-MIL-101(Fe) MOF/Pd NPs/SPE sensor shows a good catalytic activity for the oxidation of NEPI and ACP, with anodic peak potentials of 360 and 550 mV, respectively. The separation of anodic peak potential is sufficient to enable simultaneous determination. Finally, the suggested sensing platform has confirmed suitable for the simultaneous determination of NEPI and ACP in real samples (pharmaceutical formulations and urine samples), achieving recovery values ranging from 97.1 to 104.4 % with relative standard deviations ≤3.6 %.
Dry gas is considered one of the most environmentally friendly sources of energy. As a result, developing an efficient strategy for storing this gas has become essential. In this work, MOF-199 was synthesized and characterized in order to investigate the MOF-199 in dry gas adsorption using a built-in volumetric system (methane, ethane, and propane from Basrah gas company). The MOF-199 (metal organic framework) was synthesized using the solvothermal method at 373K for 24h, and then it was characterized. The dry gas adsorption on MOF-199 was studied under various conditions (adsorbent dosage, contact time, temperature, and pressure). The isothermal adsorption of the dry gas had been studied on MOF-199 using two types of mo

The study aims to select suitable ornamental plant species that can survive relatively with high concentrations of acetaminophen and methylparaben in constructed wetlands. Alternanthera spp, Asparagus aethiopicus and Chlorophytum comosum are examined to withstand three initial concentrations, 20, 100 and 200 mg/L of acetaminophen and methylparaben. A total of 21 plastic pails with each 3 L capacity consisting of nine pails are used for each pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs) compounds (acetaminophen and methylparaben) for three ornamental plants (Alternanthera spp, Asparagus aethiopicus and Chlorophytum comosum), with three pails as plant controls.
