History Multiple Sclerosis was first recognized as a specific disorder in 1873 in England. By the end of the century‚ after careful observation‚ most of the symptoms and some causes were known. In MS the immune system attacks the myelin of the bone that covers the nerve fibers. The MS can also attack nerve cell bodies which are located in the brain‚ it specifically influences the spinal cord‚ brain‚ and optic nerve. This then causes difficulties in communication between the brain and the rest

Abstract The photocatalytic degradation of phenol has been tested primarily with titanium dioxide (TiO2) either alone or in combination with other materials. In this work‚ Mg/Al hydrotalcites prepared by two methods using inorganic (HC) or organic (HS) chemical reagents‚ along with mixed oxides produced by calcination of these products (HCC and HSC) were mixed with titanium isopropoxide to obtain hydroxide-TiO2 compounds (HCC-TiO2 and HSC-TiO2) to test their photocatalytic activity compared with
