바나나, 오렌지 및 파인애플을 대상으로 시안화수소 처리후 잔류 특성을 평가하여 과실류에 대한 메틸브로마이드 대체 훈증제 개발 가능성을 조사하였다. 메틸브로마이드 훈증소독시 3일차에서 잔류량이 오렌지와 바나나에서는 1 mg/kg 미만 수준으로 나타났고, 파인애플의 경우에도 1 mg/kg을 조금 상회하는 수준으로 잔류허용 기준치 50 mg/kg을 훨씬 하회하고 있어 메틸브로마이드 잔류로 인한 독성문제는 우려할 수준이 아닌 것으로 평가되었다. 시안화수소 훈증소독의 경우 3일차에서 오렌지 50-60%, 바나나 70-80% 그리고 파인애플 50% 정도 분해 소실된 것으로 나타나, 잔류허용 기준치 5 mg/kg을 하회하는 1 mg/kg 미만 수준으로 나타났다. 이는 향후 메틸브로마이드 대체 훈증제로서 시안화수소의 사용이 가능함을 뒷받침하는 유용한 결과로 판단된다.

Methyl orange(MO) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide(CTA) were mixed and added to 10ml of the buffer solution and then the solution was shaken for 5 minutes. The maximum absorption wavelength of the reaction product was 419nm. Dichloromethane was the best extracting solvent among the several organic solvents and the most suitable pH range was 2~8. When the CTA-MO calibration curve was made in the best experimental condition, the Lambert-Beer's law was obeyed in the range of CTA concentration of $1.5\times$$10^{-5}$~1.0$\times$$10^{-4}M$ by UV spectrophotometer. This method was possible to determine quaternary ammonium salts in the pharmaceutical preparations.

A convenient spectrophotometric method was examined for the determination of amantadine sulfate (AMTS) which has no UV-VIS chromopohores. AMTS was ion-paired quantitatively with methyl orange (MO) at $70^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. The ion-paired complex was extracted with dichloromethane and the absorbance was measured at 421.5 nm. A linear relationship was observed in the range of $2.5{\times}10^{-7}\;M$ to $3.75{\times}10^{-6}\;M$ and the correlation coefficient was 0.999 (n=3). This assay method was applied to the quantification of AMTS in commercial tablet form with good recovery and high precision.

Sensitive and safe method for visualization of DNA in agarose gels using visible dye is described. To improve the sensitivity, we studied a counterion-dye staining method using methyl orange as a counterion-dye which contributes to reduce excessive background staining by indoine blue. Dye concentrations, PH of staining solution, mixing molar ratio of two dyes, and staining times were optimized for the counterion-dye staining. By the staining with a mixed solution of 0.005% indoine blue and 0.00165% methyl orange in 10% ethanol 0.2M sodium acetate, 8 ng of the 3 kb DNA in an agarose gel was detected within 1hr. (omitted)

Mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) can be a promising alternative for the solution of dye removal from coloured effluents. Polymeric membranes are widely used due to their good film-forming ability, flexibility, separation properties, and cost. However, they have low mechanical, chemical, and thermal resistances. Moreover, the fouling of polymeric membranes is high because of their hydrophobic nature. Hence, there is an increasing interest in organic-inorganic hybrid membranes as a new-generation membrane material. It has been shown that carbon nanotubes have the potential to increase the material properties of polymers with their low density, high strength, hardness, and exceptional aspect ratio. In this work, carbon nanotubes blended MMMs were prepared and methyl orange removal efficiency of them was investigated. Compared to the bare membranes, MMMs showed not only increased hydrophilicity, water content, and pure water flux but also increased methyl orange rejection and flux recovery

In this study, the reductive decolorization of three acid and basic dyes using modified zero-valent iron (i.e., acid-washed iron (Aw/Fe) and palladium coated iron (Pd/Fe)) at various pH conditions (pH 3~5) was experimentally investigated and the decolorization characteristics were evaluated by analyzing the absorbance spectra and reaction kinetics. In the case of acid dyes such as methyl orange and eriochrome black T, color removal efficiencies increased as initial pH of the dye solution decreased. However, the color removal of methylene blue, a basic dye, was not affected much by the initial pH and more than 70% of color was removed within 10 min. During the decolorization reaction, the absorbance of methyl orange (${\lambda}_{max}=464nm$) and eriochrome black T (${\lambda}_{max}=528nm$) decreased in the visible range but increased in the UV range. The absorbance of methylene blue (${\lambda}_{max}=664nm$) also decreased gradually in the visible range. Pseudo-zero order, pseudo-first order, and pseudo-second order kinetic models were used to analyze the reaction kinetics. The pseudo-second order kinetic model was found to be the best with good correlation. The decolorization reaction rate constants ($k_2$) of methylene blue were relatively higher than those of methyl orange and eriochrome black T. The reaction rate constants of methyl orange and eriochrome black T increased with a decrease in the initial pH.

This study investigates methyl orange (MO) degradation by an ultrasonically dispersed nano-metallic particle (NMP) assisted advanced Fenton process. The NMPs were synthesized from the leachate of automobile-shredder residue. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy were performed for the prepared NMPs. Various parameters, such as the effects of the NMP dosage, the pH value of the solution, the initial concentration of MO, and the amount of $H_2O_2$ on the degradation efficiency of MO were studied. The MO degradation efficiency could be increased by approximately 100% by increasing the dosages of the NMPs and $H_2O_2$ to certain limits, after which in both cases the degradation efficiency was reduced when an excess amount was added. The MO degradation efficiency was found to be 100% at pH 2.0 and 2.5 with the 10 mg/L of initial concentration of the MO. The degradation of MO by ultrasonically dispersed NMPs was appropriate with the pseudo-first-order kinetics.

Zinc nitrate hexahydrate (Zn(NO3)2·6H2O) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) were dissolved in distilled water and stirred for 30 min. The resulting solution was sonicated by an ultrasonic wave for 45 min. This solution was washed with distilled water and ethanol after centrifugation; next, it was placed in an electric furnace at 200℃ for 1 h under the flow of Ar gas to obtain zinc oxide nanoparticle. A zinc oxide nanoparticle-(C60) fullerene nanowhisker composite was synthesized using the zinc oxide nanoparticle solution, C60-saturated toluene, and isopropyl alcohol via the liquid-liquid interfacial precipitation method. The zinc oxide nanoparticle and zinc oxide nanoparticle-(C60) fullerene nanowhisker composite were characterized using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy, and they were used for the catalytic degradation of methyl orange (MO) under ultraviolet (at 254 and 365 nm) and ultrasonic irradiation. In addition, the catalytic degradation of MO over the zinc oxide nanoparticle and zinc oxide nanoparticle-(C60) fullerene nanowhisker composite was evaluated using ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy.

Activated carbon fiber (ACF) was modified with MnS nanoparticles to prepare MnS-ACF, and it was employed for preparation of MnS-$ACF/TiO_2$ composites with titanium (IV) n-butoxide (TNB). The properties of MnS-$ACF/TiO_2$ composites were characterized by XRD, SEM, and EDX. EDX results showed the presence of C, O, and Ti as major elements and traces of the metal elements Mn and S. The photocatlytic activity was evaluated by degradation of methyl blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO) dye. The results demonstrated that as-prepared samples could effectively photodegrade MB and MO under UV irradiation. Subsequently, the decomposition of MB solution showed the combined effects of adsorptions by ACF and enhanced photocatalytic effect by $TiO_2$. Finally, the photocatalytic effect increased due to photo-induced-electron absorption effect by ACF and electron trap effect by comodified MnS nanoparticles.

A new application of monoacidic dye is reported for the determination of pipethanate hydrochloride(PTH). The method is based on solvent extraction into chloroform of an ion-pair compound formed between methyl orange(MO) and PTH. PTH is determined by measuring absorbance of the extracts over the range of $2.0{\sim}12.0{\mu}g/ml$ at 420nm. Best accuracy can be obtained for solutions containing $3.0{\sim}8.0{\mu}g/ml$. The color was stable for at least 5 days. The molar absorptivity was $2.88\;{\times}\;10^4\;l,\;mol^{-1},\;cm^{-1}$. Molar ratio and continuous variation plots have a maximum at 0.5 mol fraction of MO, indicating a 1 : 1 MO-PTH ratio.
