  • Publication number: 20230218777
    Abstract: Provided are innovative compositions for tethering blocking an inactivating of airborne respiratory infectious viruses. The compositions comprise bispecific proteins with two different antigen binding regions (ABR), which are typically configured as immunoglobulin “single variable domains” (ISV). A first ISV binds to a surface protein found on an airborne infectious virus. A second ISV binds to a mucin protein, e.g. a mucin protein present on ocular, nasopharyngeal, tracheal and/or oral surfaces of a mammal. The two ISV are joined by a polypeptide linker.

  • Publication number: 20220289610
    Abstract: A method for chromium removal from post-tanning wastewater includes the following steps: (a) mixing pretreated post-tanning wastewater with an induction reagent to allow an induction reaction; and (b) adjusting a pH of a mixture obtained after the induction reaction to higher than 7.0 for precipitation; where the induction reagent includes a soluble metal salt. In the treatment method of the present disclosure, pretreated post-tanning wastewater is mixed with an induction reagent, a small amount of neutral chromium complexes remaining in the wastewater are converted into cationic chromium complexes under the action of the induction reagent (that is, a charge property of the chromium complex is changed), and then a pH is adjusted for precipitation to remove chromium, which greatly improves the removal efficiency of chromium in wastewater.
