Wavelet packet transform and artificial neural network applied to simultaneous kinetic multicomponent determination.

Abstract

This paper presents a novel method, named wavelet packet transform based multilayer feedforward neural network with Levenberg-Marquardt and back propagation algorithm (WPTLMBP), developed for simultaneous kinetic determination of Cu(II), Fe(III), and Ni(II). Wavelet packet representations of signals provided a local time-frequency description, thus in the wavelet packet domain the quality of noise removal can be improved. The artificial neural network was applied for non-linear multivariate calibration. In this study, by optimization, wavelet packet function, decomposition level and number of hidden nodes for WPTLMBP method were selected as Db2, 2, and 4 respectively. A program PWPTLMBP was designed to perform simultaneous kinetic determination of Cu(II), Fe(III), and Ni(II). The relative standard error of prediction (RSEP) for all components with WPTLMBP, LM-BP-MLFN, and PLS methods were 6.39, 10.4, and 8.30%, respectively. Experimental results showed the proposed method to be successful and better than the others.

Copper-Containing Surface Engineering for Soft-Tissue Biomedical Devices: Structure-Function Relationships and Ion Release-Driven Biological Performance, A Systematic Review.

Copper and copper-based materials have gained increasing attention for the functional modification of implantable medical devices intended for prolonged soft-tissue contact, including vascular stents, catheters, and intrauterine devices. Owing to their broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity, redox reactivity, and involvement in angiogenesis and cellular signaling, copper-based systems offer significant potential for multifunctional surface engineering. However, achieving a balance between antibacterial efficacy, corrosion behavior, controlled ion release, and cytocompatibility remains a critical challenge. This PRISMA-compliant systematic review analyzes copper-containing materials and surface modification strategies for soft-tissue biomedical applications. A structured search of Scopus, Web of Science, and PubMed (2015-2025) identified 65 eligible studies. The review encompasses bulk copper-containing alloys, electrochemical and chemical surface modification techniques, physical vapor deposition approaches, and advanced hybrid systems integrating copper with polymers, hydrogels, or metal-phenolic networks. Across the reviewed literature, antibacterial performance was strongly dependent on copper concentration, microstructural distribution, and spatiotemporal ion release profiles. Moderate, well-controlled copper incorporation frequently improved antibacterial efficacy while maintaining acceptable hemocompatibility and cytocompatibility, particularly in vascular and blood-contacting devices. In contrast, excessive copper loading often accelerated corrosion and induced adverse cellular responses. Emerging multifunctional architectures demonstrated improved regulation of biological interactions, enabling simultaneous antibacterial, antithrombotic, and proendothelial effects. Overall, copper-based surface technologies represent a versatile platform for soft-tissue implant modification. Future translational progress will require precise control of copper release kinetics and comprehensive long-term in vivo validation to ensure safety and sustained therapeutic performance. From the authors' perspective, the most promising future direction involves multifunctional copper-based hybrid coatings capable of dynamically regulating ion release, host tissue integration, and antibacterial performance simultaneously. Strategies integrating hierarchical architectures, stimulus-responsive release systems, and clinically scalable fabrication methods are expected to play a key role in translating copper-containing surfaces from experimental concepts toward commercially viable soft-tissue biomedical devices.

Development of a new approach for microbial decontamination of water using modified Fenton's reaction.

Microbial decontamination of water was carried out using a novel radical generating system consisting of ion exchange resin, copper and hydrogen peroxide. The system was successful in reducing the microbial load in water by more than 99% in 15 min and is effective against all the microorganisms tested. The method was also successful in decontaminating the flood water obtained from Industrial Canal and 17th Street Canal in New Orleans. Decontamination is due to the formation of hydroxyl radicals, formed during the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide by the metal-polymer complex.
