AB  - Liposome-encapsulated folic acid is incorporated into the films made from sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) (2 mas%) and a mixture of CMC and solagum (9:1 w/w) using the film-forming cast solution method. Histidine is used to increase solubility for folic acid in liposomes (1–5 mg mL−1), and propylene glycol is used as a film plasticizer (2.6 mas%). The obtained films (50–60 µm tick) containing 3.12–20.19 mg of folic acid per gram of film are envisaged to be used as patches for transdermal delivery of folic acid. Therefore, some physical, mechanical, release and structural attributes of the films are scrutinized. Folic acid gives yellow color to the films and contributes to stronger chemical bonds which result in improved strength of the film. Liposomes prolong the release of folic acid from films to 24 h without adverse effects on mechanical properties of the films, but degrade homogeneity of the films, which can be ascribed to its agglomeration within the film matrix as revealed by atomic force microscopy. According to the release at pH 5.5, the film formulation based on a blend of CMC and solagum containing 3 mg mL−1 liposome-encapsulated folic acid is recommended. Practical Application: Folic acid is effective in reducing oxidative stress levels in the skin and neutralizing the harmful free radicals and is also essential for various metabolic reactions in the body. However, the limited solubility of folic acid linked with its poor absorption in an organism, low storage stability, short half-life upon oral consumption, specific food preferences of some people, extensive liver metabolism, and pregnancy-induced vomiting point to a large potential in transdermal usage of folic acid. This has motivated us to design new multicomponent polymer-lipid systems as an alternative solution to overcome some of these drawbacks. The results obtained for these multicomponent films pointed to their potential for prolonged release of folic acid to 24 h, which can also be useful for scientists interested in encapsulating similar poorly soluble compounds in CMC patches. The finding can be also valuable information for pharmaceutical manufacturers and scientists worldwide.

AB  - Lignite and coal waste used as feed fuels in thermal power plants
(TPPs) and semi-industrial fluidized bed boiler (FBB), as well as their representative fly ashes (FAs), were examined. Fly ashes were compared employing
anions and cations content in correspondent water extracts, trace elements and
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon concentrations, as well as health risk assessments of substances known to be of concern for public health. Fluoride and sulfate contents in water extracted FAs are far below the legislation limits for
waste, classifying all investigated FAs as non-hazardous. Among investigated
trace elements, Cd content is the lowest, while Mn content is the highest. The
highest enrichment ratios are noticed for As, Pb, Hg, Cu, V and Cr. The results
indicate that total PAHs content is elevated in FA from the combustion of coal
waste (AFB), with fluoranthene prevailing. The cancer risk of As and the non-
-cancer risk of As and Ni in some FAs surpass their respective permissible
limits. The incremental lifetime cancer risk of an adult population indicates a
potential PAHs risk in AFB, whereas all other fly ashes are within safe limits.

populacije u slučaju PAH, pokazuje da za leteći pepeo dobijen sagorevanjem otpadnog

AB  - Resorcinol–formaldehyde (RF) cryogels were synthesized by sol–gel polycondensation of resorcinol with formaldehyde and freeze-drying was carried out with t-butanol. Carbon cryogel (CC) was obtained by pyrolyzing RF cryogels in an inert atmosphere to 950 °C. Nitrogen doped CCs (CCN) were synthesized by introducing melamine into RF precursor mixture solution to obtain nitrogen concentration 2, 6 and 10 wt.%. Material was characterized by elemental analysis, nitrogen adsorption– desorption measurements, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Raman spectroscopy, FT-IR Spectroscopy. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) was used to investigate capacitive and electrocatalytic properties. Conductivity measurement was also performed. Elemental analysis results confirmed presence of nitrogen in CCN samples in the range from 0.45 to 1.15 wt.%. Raman spectroscopy of the samples showed increase of D and G peak integrated intensity ratio (ID/IG) with nitrogen doping suggesting that the structural disorder as well as edge plane density increase, but according to similar ID/IG values for CCN samples, their share is not directly related to the amount of incorporated N. Characterization by nitrogen adsorption showed that overall specific surface and maximum mesopores are achieved in CCN sample with medium nitrogen concentration. Results of cyclic voltammetry experiments demonstrated maximum capacitance for CCN sample with smallest N wt.% indicating that narrow pore size distribution and high specific surface area are dominant factors to achieve good capacitive behavior. The relatively low doping level of nitrogen reached in CCN samples may be the reason for the incomplete reduction of oxygen to hydroxide and furthermore it turned out that presence of N in the structure of CC had a negligible effect on the otherwise relatively high conductivity of CC. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.
