Photoactive Ni-TiO₂ was synthesized through green hydrothermal method with preferential photocatalytic performance in visible and solar light for synthetic and formulated wastewater treatment. Incorporation of this transition metal into TiO₂ was examined by XRD, FTIR, UV–visible DRS, XPS, SEM-EDS and HRTEM analysis. According to the Langmuir–Hinshelwood model, the photodegradation of the chlorhexidine digluconate under solar (R²=0.986) and simulated visible light (R²=0.982), follows a pseudo-first-order kinetics. The interaction of operational fractions, such as S/C ratio, irradiation time, and pH of the reaction mixture, were evaluated using the RSM. Although complete mineralization of CHD was not achieved using Ni-TiO₂ under visible light, but the parent compound was mineralized to some extent, as demonstrated by TOC reduction (85.71%-synthetic wastewater and 61.17%-formulated wastewater), UV<SUB>254</SUB> (89.91% synthetic wastewater and 55.39%-formulated wastewater) and UV<SUB>280</SUB> (68.23%-synthetic wastewater and 68.23%-formulated wastewater) absorbance variations. Based on the identified transformed products, the possible degradation pathway was proposed and bacterial susceptibility test on Bacillus cereus DPAML065 was performed to evaluate the toxicity of oxidation intermediates. Comparative studies about energy consumption and removal efficiency during simulated visible light/Ni-TiO₂ and sunlight/ Ni-TiO₂ mediated treatment system for formulated wastewater revealed that sunlight/ Ni-TiO₂ mediated treatment system was high energy efficient (1.67 kWhKg<SUP>-1</SUP>) system.

Chlorhexidine digluconate (CHD) in the aquatic environment causes irreversible change to microbes, making them resistant to biodegradation, which needs remediation other than biological process. Adsorption study was performed for the removal of CHD on fly ash (FA) as a function of pH and ionic strength. Experimental result has been validated by characterization using Scanning electron microscopy, Fourier Transform-Infrared Spectroscopy and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller. CHD adsorption with FA showed an increasing trend with an increase in pH. Variation in pH proved to be an influential parameter for the surface charge of adsorbent and the degree of ionization of the CHD molecules. The adsorption capacity of CHD decreased from 23.60 mg g-1 to 1.13 mg g-1, when ionic strength increased from to M. The adsorption isotherms were simulated well by the Freundlich isotherm model having R2 = 0.98. The Lagergren’s model was incorporated to predict the system kinetics, while the mechanistic study was better explained by pseudo-second order for FA. On the basis of operational conditions and cost-effectiveness FA was found to be more economical as an adsorbent for the adsorption of CHD.

Background: Obese adipose tissue secretes a variety of adipocytokines that act as metabolic regulators with complex mechanisms. Our objective was to compare serum concentration of a panel of adipocytokines between obese and non-obese individuals and identify any distinct patterns correlating with insulin sensitivity in obesity. Methods: We designed a cross-sectional study among obese (body mass index [BMI] ≥30 kg/m2, n=62) and non-obese (BMI <25 kg/m2, n=32) individuals to compare circulating levels of the adipokines, such as adiponectin and resistin in conjunction with the measurement of the levels of inflammatory cytokines including C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α using Luminex multiplex immunoassay with drop array technology. Correlations between circulating adipocytokine levels and those of multiple well-established markers of insulin resistance including homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), homeostatic model assessment of β-cell function (HOMA-β) and quantitative insulin sensitivity check index were also established. Results: CRP, IL-8, MCP-1, and TNF-α levels were higher in obese than non-obese individuals; the CRP and IL-8 differences were statistically significant. CRP correlated significantly with markers of insulin resistance (fasting plasma insulin, HOMA-IR, and QUICKI), and adiponectin correlated with HOMA-β in obese individuals. We divided the group of obese individuals on the basis of HOMA-IR levels into insulin-resistant (IR; HOMA-IR ≥2.5) and insulin-sensitive (IS; HOMA-IR <2.5) groups; and 43 out of 62 participants were IR despite comparable BMIs. An overall proinflammatory profile was compared between IR and IS obese, though the values were higher in IR obese but the difference was not significant. Conclusion: Obesity is associated with a general inflammatory milieu and a crosstalk between adipocytokines and insulin resistance is complex as well as multifactorial.
