2가 금속인 구리와 아연을 다양한 농도로 각각 담배모자이크 바이러스(TMV)에 처리하여 감염성에 어떤 영향을 주는 가를 조사하였다. TMV의 감염성은 아연의 첨가에 의해 활성화된 반면, 구리의 첨가에 의해 감소되었다. 아연을 첨가한 바이러스 접종원을 담배 잎에 처리한 결과 바이러스만을 접종한 잎보다 더 많은 국부반점이 생성되었다. TMV의 감염성을 감소시키는 구리의 효과는 구리의 농도에 관련되는 결과를 나타내었다. 또한 전기영동으로 다양한 농도의 구리와 아연에 처리된 TMV를 분석한 결과 그 특성이 변화됨이 관찰되었다. 아연 200mM 이상의 농도에 노출시 바이러스는 완전히 분해되었고, 40-20 mM 농도에서는 간신히 바이러스의 흔적을 찾을 수 있으나, 2 mM 농도에서는 상당히 안정되었다. 구리의 경우 20 mM 이하의 농도에 처리되었을 때 구조적으로 완전하게 남아있으나, 100 mM 이상의 처리에서는 완전히 분해되었다.

Disposal of hazardous ions in the aqueous streams is a significant industrial waste problem.. Waste streams from electronics, electroplating, and photographic industries contain metal ions such as copper, nickel, zinc, chromium(IV), cadmium, aluminum, silver, and gold, amongst others in various aqueous solutions such as sulfates, chlorides, fluorocarbons, and cyanides. Typical plating solutions having similar compositions are listed in Table 1. Spent process streams in catalyst manufacturing facilities also contain precious metals such as Ag, Pt, and Pd. Developing an effective recovery process of these metal ions for reuse is important.

Purified melanin pigment from Klebsiella sp. GSK was characterized by thermogravimetric, differential thermal, X-ray diffraction and elemental analysis. This melanin pigment is structurally amorphous in nature. It is thermally stable up to $300^{\circ}C$ and emits a strong exothermic peak at $700^{\circ}C$. Its carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen composition is 47.9%, 6.9% and 12.0%, respectively. It was used to scavenge metal ions and free radicals. After immobilizing the pigment and using it to adsorb copper and lead ions, the metal ion adsorption capacity was evaluated by atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) and the identity of melanin functional groups involved in the binding of metal ions was determined by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Batch adsorption studies showed that 169 mg/g of copper and 280 mg/g of lead were adsorbed onto melanin-alginate beads. The metal ion adsorption capacity of the melanin-alginate beads was relatively significant compared to alginate beads. The metal ion desorption capacity of HCl was greater (81.5% and 99% for copper and lead, respectively) than that of EDTA (80% and 71% for copper and lead, respectively). The ability of the melanin pigment to scavenge free radicals was evaluated by inhibition of the oxidation of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) and was shown to be about 74% and 98%, respectively, compared with standard antioxidants.

The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of additives on the mechanical and electrical characteristics of electrodeposited copper foils. Additives A(leveler) and B(brightener) were used in this study and Cl ions were used as an accelerator. In case of using these additives A and B, it showed a disadvantage that decreased the elongation of electrodeposited layer due to decreased grain sizes and increased tensile strength. On the other hand, the Cl ions decreased the specific resistance of the copper layer and increased elongation owing to increasing grain sizes. The highest elongation and lowest resistivity were measured in the group added only Cl ions, whose values were 21.9% and $3.11{\mu}\Omega$-cm, respectively.

Protocatechualdehyde (PA)는 항산화 활성과 항암 활성을 가진 페놀성 물질이다. Streptomyces lincolnensis M-20 균주에서 생산된 PA를 균주 상등액에서 분리, 정제하였다. 항산화 활성을 가진 PA가 구리 이온 존재 하에서는 산화촉진제로 작용하였다. 항산화 활성은 DPPH를 이용한 방법으로 측정하였으며, 구리 이온 존재 하에서 PA의 산화 촉진 작용은 pBR322 플라스미드의 DNA 절단 작용으로 측정하였다. DNA 손상으로 생성되는 활성산소 종의 확인은 활성 산소종의 포집자인 글루타치온에 의해 DNA 절단이 억제되는 것으로 확인하였다. PA와 구리 이온의 복합체 형성은 금속 이온의 킬레이트인 EDTA가 존재할 경우와 존재하지 않을 경우를 자외선/가시광선 분광학적 분석법으로 비교, 확인하였다.

In this work, effect of zincate treatment of AZ91 Mg alloy on the following electrodeposition of copper was examined in a non-cyanide bath containing pyrophosphate ions in view of surface morphology and adhesion of the electrodeposited copper layer. Without zincate treatment, the electrodeposited copper layer showed very porous structure and poor adhesion. On the other hand, the copper layer electrodeposited on the zincate-treated surface showed dense structure and good adhesion. The dissolution rate of AZ91 Mg alloy after the zincate treatment appeared to decrease about 40 times in the copper pyrophosphate bath, as compared to that of the surface without zincate treatment. The porous morphology and poor adhesion of a copper layer on the AZ91 Mg alloy surface without zincate treatment were attributed to small number of nucleation sites of copper because of rapid dissolution of the magnesium substrate in the pyrophosphate bath. Based on the experimental results, it is concluded that the zincate treatment to form a conducting and protecting layer on the AZ91 Mg alloy surface is essential for successful electrodeposition of a copper layer on AZ91 Mg alloy with good adhesion and dense structure in the copper pyrophosphate bath.

조류제거를 위한 구리이온을 생성하기 위한 환형 흐름 구리 전기분해 반응기 시스템을 구성하고 그 가동특성에 대하여 고찰하였다. 또한 구리이온이 조류에 미치는 영향도 살펴보았다. 인가전류를 증가하면 균등조로부터 배출되는 구리 이온 농도가 비례적으로 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 전류 밀도를 조절하여 원하는 구리농도를 얻을 수 있음을 알았으며 패러데이 효율은 90% 이상임을 알 수 있었다. 유량을 증가시키면 구리이온농도는 감소하였으며 이는 전극에서의 반응속도와는 상관없이 물의 증가량에 따른 희석 때문임을 알 수 있었으며 농도 과전위 영향은 미미하였다. pH가 증가할수록 생성되는 구리이온 농도는 이에 반비례하여 감소하였고 전기전도도의 변화는 배출되는 구리이온 농도에 별 영향을 미치지 않았다. 구리이온 농도가 증가시킬 경우 Chlorophyll-a 농도가 크게 감소함을 볼 수 있으며, 구리 이온 농도가 0.2 ppm 이상일 때 조류가 효과적으로 제거됨을 알 수 있다. 황산구리를 용해시킨 구리이온이나 전기분해를 통해 얻은 구리이온을 투여한 경우 별차이가 없었으며 5일 후 조류 제거효율은 0.4 ppm이상의 농도에서는 90%이상이었다.

The possibility of using carica papaya leaf powder for removal of copper from wastewater as a low cost adsorbent was explored. Different parameters that affect the adsorption process like initial concentration of metal ion, time of contact, adsorbent quantity and pH were evaluated and the outcome of the study was tested using adsorption isotherm models. A maximum of 90%-94.1% copper removal was possible from wastewater having low concentration of the metal using papaya leaf powder under optimum conditions by conducting experimental studies. The biosorption of copper ion was influenced by pH and outcome of experimental results indicate the optimum pH as 7.0 for maximum copper removal. Copper distribution between the solid and liquid phases in batch studies was described by isotherms like Langmuir adsorption and Freundlich models. The adsorption process was better represented by the Freundlich isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacity of copper was measured to be 24.51 mg/g through the Langmuir model. Pseudo-second order rate equation was better suited for the adsorption process. A dynamic mode study was also conducted to analyse the ability of papaya leaf powder to remove copper (II) ions from aqueous solution and the breakthrough curve was described by an S profile. Present study revealed that papaya leaf powder can be used for the removal of copper from the wastewater and low cost water treatment techniques can be developed using this adsorbent.

Mitochondria, fundamental cellular organelles that govern energy metabolism, hold a pivotal role in cellular vitality. While consuming dioxygen to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the electron transfer process within mitochondria can engender the formation of reactive oxygen species that exert dual roles in endothelial homeostatic signaling and oxidative stress. In the context of the intricate electron transfer process, several metal ions that include copper, iron, zinc, and manganese serve as crucial cofactors in mitochondrial metalloenzymes to mediate the synthesis of ATP and antioxidant defense. In this mini review, we provide a comprehensive understanding of the coordination chemistry of mitochondrial cuproenzymes. In detail, cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) reduces dioxygen to water coupled with proton pumping to generate an electrochemical gradient, while superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) functions in detoxifying superoxide into hydrogen peroxide. With an emphasis on the catalytic reactions of the copper metalloenzymes and insights into their ligand environment, we also outline the metalation process of these enzymes throughout the copper trafficking system. The impairment of copper homeostasis can trigger mitochondrial dysfunction, and potentially lead to the development of copper-related disorders. We describe the current knowledge regarding copper-mediated toxicity mechanisms, thereby shedding light on prospective therapeutic strategies for pathologies intertwined with copper dyshomeostasis.
