“…However, further examination of oncogenic factors is warranted before reaching this radical conclusion. Oxidative stress following BB exposure could be one of the causative factors contributing to cancer progression by amplifying genomic instability 64 . From another perspective, SDH deficiency in the BB group results in the accumulation of succinate which activates the transcription of target oncogenes related to cell proliferation 65 .…”

Bromobenzene (BB) is a hazardous environmental contaminant because of its multiple routes of exposure and the toxicity of its bio-derivates. It could elicit neuronal alterations by stimulating redox imbalance and apoptotic pathways. Gum Arabic (GA) protected the hippocampus of a type 2 diabetic rat model from cognitive decline. Whether gum Arabic nanoemulsion (GANE) can increase the neuroprotectant potency of GA in fighting BB-associated neurological lesions is the question to be answered. To accomplish this objective, 25 adult male Wistar rats were randomly and equally assigned into five groups. Control received olive oil (vehicle of BB). BB group received BB at a dose of 460 mg/kg BW. Blank nanoemulsion (BNE) group supplemented with BNE at 2 mL of 10% w/v aqueous suspension/kg BW. GANE group received GANE at a dose of 2 mL of 10% w/v aqueous suspension/kg BW. BB + GANE group exposed to BB in concomitant with GANE at the same previous doses. All interventions were carried out daily by oral gavage for ten consecutive days. BB caused a marked increase in malondialdehyde and succinate dehydrogenase together with a marked decrease in reduced glutathione, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, superoxide dismutase, catalase, and lactate dehydrogenase in the brain. BB was accompanied by pathological deteriorations, amyloidosis, and reduced immuno-expression of integrase interactor 1 in the hippocampal region. Administration of GANE was beneficial in reversing the aforementioned abnormalities. These results pave the road for further discovery of nano-formulated natural products to counter the threats of BB.

“…Corrosion of steel in O 2 -CO 2 -H 2 O system has been studied extensively [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] however the work refers to aqueous systems with low (ppm) levels of dissolved oxygen. In the air-assisted steam injection process, the downhole oxygen concentration varies from ∼21% to ∼5% (v/v) and the different temperatures and pressures used substantially changes the corrosion rates and mechanism [18][19][20].…”

Air-assisted steam injection is used to enhance hydrocarbon recovery from heavy oil reservoirs. During this process, downhole tubular goods are subject to corrosion in a mixed oxygen-carbon dioxide-steam environment at temperature up to around 200°C causing a low-temperature oxidation phenomenon. Here we investigate the influence of the O 2 /CO 2 ratio on the corrosion of P110 steel, a grade that is commonly used for oil well casings. Our findings show that corrosion is greatly influenced by the O 2 pressure but hardly at all by the CO 2 pressure. The maximum corrosion rate was in excess of 65 mm per year. However, alkalisation of the injected fluid, which promoted the formation of a protective magnetite scale, was found to greatly reduce corrosion.
