This study aims to evaluate the influences of ultraviolet radiation A and B ( UVA + B) exposure on the liver and heart organs of albino rats. Female Wistar Albino rats, whose hair of the dorsal skin was shaved, were exposed to a combined UVA + B radiation for 2 h/day, for 4 weeks in order to be compared with the control group. Histopathological findings in vital organs (liver and heart) were evaluated. Tissues were fixed in 10% buffered formalin (pH = 7.2) and embedded in paraffin. The histopathological findings were examined on the H&E stained sections with light microscopy. The results show that the liver and the heart were injured in the UVA + B group. Liver tissue in the UVA + B group showed minimal vacuolation, enlargement of hepatocytes and bile duct proliferation, and the heart tissue showed hibernomas; uniform large cells resembling brown fat with coarsely granular to multivacuolated cytoplasm that is eosinophilic or pale with a small central nucleus. The number of hibernoma cases was significantly higher in the UVA + B group compared with the control group (P = 0.021). The control group showed normal liver and heart histology with normal adipose tissue in the pericardium. As a result, UVA + B exposure has toxic effects, especially on the liver and the heart of Wistar albino rats. UV radiation may cause such adverse effects in humans. Therefore, protection against the harmful effects of UV radiation is of significant importance for skin and organs. 相似文献

Hydrogen is regarded as one of the most potential sustainable energy sources in the future. Applications include transportation. Still, the event of materials for its storage is difficult notably as a fuel in vehicular transport. Nanocones are a promising hydrogen storage material. Silicon, germanium, and tin carbide nanocones have recently been proposed as promising hydrogen storage materials. In the present study, we have investigated the hydrogen storage capacity of and nanocones functionalized with Ni. The functionalized Ni atom are found to be adsorbed on and with an adsorption energy of −5.56, −6.70, and −4.25 eV. The functionalized , and bind up to seven, six and four molecules of hydrogen with the adsorption energy of (−0.34, −0.35, and −0.26 eV) and an average desorption temperature of around 434, 447, and 332 K (ideal for fuel cell applications). The SiC, GeC, and SnC nanocones systems exhibit a maximum gravimetric storage capacity of 12.51, 7.78, and 4.08 wt%. We suggested that Ni SiCNC and Ni GeCNC systems can act as potential H2 storage device materials because of their higher H2 uptake capacity as well as their stronger interaction with adsorbed hydrogen molecules than Ni SnCNC systems. The hydrogen storage reactions are characterized in terms of the charge transfer, the partial density of states, the frontier orbital band gaps, and isosurface plots. And electrophilicity are calculated for the functionalized and hydrogenated and nanocones. 相似文献
The compounds 2‐thioxanthone‐thioacetic acid and 2‐(carboxymethoxy)thioxanthone, bimolecular photoinitiators for free radical polymerization, are synthesized and characterized. Their capability to act as initiators for the polymerization of methyl methacrylate was examined. The postulated mechanism is based on the intermolecular electron‐transfer reaction of the excited photoinitiator with the sulfur or oxygen atom of the ground state of the respective photoinitiator followed by decarboxylation. The resulting alkyl radicals initiate the polymerization.
