Adsorption on Highly Ordered Porous Alumina
Mistura, G.,Bruschi, L.,Lee, W. Springer Science + Business Media 2016 Journal of low temperature physics Vol.185 No.1
<P>Porous anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) is characterized by a regular arrangement of the pores with a narrow pore size distribution over extended areas, uniform pore depth, and solid pore walls without micropores. Thanks to significant improvements in anodization techniques, structural engineering of AAO allows to accurately tailor the pore morphology. These features make porous AAO an excellent substrate to study adsorption phenomena. In this paper, we review recent experiments involving the adsorption in porous AAO. Particular attention will be devoted to adsorption in straight and structured pores with a closed end which shed new light on fundamental issues like the origin of hysteresis in closed end pores and the nature of evaporation from ink-bottle pores. The results will be compared to those obtained in other synthetic materials like porous silicon and silica.</P>
Adsorption on alumina nanopores with conical shape
Bruschi, Lorenzo,Mistura, Giampaolo,Negri, Fabrizia,Coasne, Benoit,Mayamei, Yashar,Lee, Woo The Royal Society of Chemistry 2018 Nanoscale Vol.10 No.38
<P>Adsorption on porous solids depends on the morphology of the pores, the cylindrical one being the most studied in the literature. In this work, we present the first experimental investigation of adsorption and evaporation on conical nanopores produced by anodization of aluminium oxide. The pores are about 50 μm long, with the wide ends having a diameter of ∼79 nm and the narrow ones of ∼30 nm. Three different pores configurations are considered: open at both ends, open only at the narrow end and open only at the wide end. Despite the very small value of the conical angle <I>α</I>, estimated to be ∼0.06°, just barely above <I>α</I> = 0° corresponding to a cylindrical pore, the adsorption isotherms look strikingly different from those measured on cylindrical pores of similar size. First of all, the hysteresis loops of the conical pores with two open ends and with open wide ends practically coincide. Furthermore, they are narrower and the adsorption and evaporation branches are broader than those of the cylindrical pores with similar size. Finally, conical pores with open narrow ends exhibit a large hysteresis indicative of pore blocking. To unravel the mechanisms underlying adsorption and evaporation in such conical pores, we also report complementary results obtained using on-lattice grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations.</P>

Alteration of redox status is one of the molecular pathways commonly associated with pesticide toxicity. Antioxidants, including those obtained from plant phenolics, have been shown to mitigate pesticide-induced cellular injury. The present study was aimed at evaluating the effect of daflon-500®, a flavonoid compound on sub-chronic chlorpyriphos-evoked changes in antioxidant and biochemical parameters in the hypophysis and testes of adult male rats. Twenty-five male albino rats were randomly divided into 5 groups of 5 animals each. Group I (DW) received distilled water (2 ml/kg); group II (SO) was dosed with soya oil (2 ml/kg); Group III (DAF) received daflon-500® at 1000 mg/kg ̴ 1/5th of LD50 (≥ 5000 mg/kg); group IV (CP) was administered chlorpyriphos at 7.74 mg/kg ̴ 1/10th of LD50 (77.4 mg/kg) while group V (DAF + CP) was previously treated with daflon-500® (1000 mg/kg) and then exposed to CP (7.74 mg/kg), 30 min later. Daily oral regimen administration was done for 60 days after which the animals were sacrificed by cervical venesection after light chloroform anesthesia. The hypophysis and testicular tissues were harvested, and their homogenates were analyzed for malondialdehyde, catalase and superoxide dismutase, and acetylcholinesterase levels. A significant increase in the hypophysis and testicular MDA concentrations, coupled with a decrease in the SOD, CAT, and AChE activities were observed in the CP group. The levels of these oxidative and biochemical parameters were alleviated in the group pretreated with Daflon-500®. Results of this study demonstrated that pre-treatment with Daflon-500® mitigated CP-induced alterations in oxidative and biochemical parameters apparently due to the antioxidant effect of the flavonoid compound.
