High-throughput diversity and functionality analysis of the gastrointestinal tract microbiota
(Bmj Publishing Group, London, 2008)
The human gastrointestinal (GI) tract microbiota plays a pivotal role in our health. For more than a decade a major input for describing the diversity of the GI tract microbiota has been derived from the application of ...
Kinetic study of the hydrogen oxidation reaction on sub-stoichiometric titanium oxide-supported platinum electrocatalyst in acid solution
(Elsevier, 2009)
The kinetics and mechanism of the hydrogen oxidation reaction were studied in 0.5 mol dm-3 HClO4 solution on an electrode based on titanium oxide with Magneli phase structure-supported platinum electrocatalyst applied on ...
Synthesis and antimicrobial properties of Zn-mineralized alginate nanocomposites
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
New bioactive and antimicrobial biomaterials were produced by alginate-mediated biomineralization with Zn-mineral phase. The synthesis procedure is simple, cost-effective and resulted in. two different Zn-mineralized ...
Mineralized agar-based nanocomposite films: Potential food packaging materials with antimicrobial properties
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
New mineralized, agar-based nanocomposite films (Zn-carbonate and Zn-phosphate/agar) were produced by a combination of in situ precipitation and a casting method. The presence of minerals significantly influenced the ...
Nano-finishing of cellulose textile materials with copper and copper oxide nanoparticles
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2019)
Nano-finishing of textile materials with metal and metal oxide nanoparticles has been in the focus of science and textile industry almost two decades. The emergence of bacteria resistance to silver nanoparticles due to ...
Stability of TEMPO-oxidized cotton fibers during natural aging
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Stability of cotton fibers oxidized by the 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxy radical (TEMPO)-mediated system during natural aging was monitored; the oxidized and five-year-aged fibers were characterized in terms of ...
Monomer elution from nanohybrid and ormocer-based composites cured with different light sources
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2011)
Objectives. To study monomer elution from four resin-based composites (RBCs) cured with different light sources. Methods. Twenty-eight premolars were randomly allocated to four groups. Standardized cavities were prepared ...
Investigation of corrosion behaviour of carbon nanotubes coated basalt fabric as a reinforcement material
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2019)
In this study, the corrosion behaviour of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) coated basalt fibre (BF) (BFCNTs) obtained by chemical vapour deposition (CVD), was studied. During CVD, the CNTs were grown on BF, (a) at different growth ...
Change in structural, ferroelectric, and magnetic properties of bismuth ferrite induced by doping with gadolinium
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2019)
Bismuth ferrite, BiFeO3, was doped with a wide range of concentrations (0-30%) of Gd in order to investigate structural, ferroelectric, and magnetic properties and their correlation. Powder samples of Bi1-xGdxFeO3 (x = ...
The influence of the polyaniline initial oxidation states on the corrosion of steel with composite coatings
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2018)
The chemically synthesized polyaniline in the powdered form by the procedure recommended by IUPAC is reprotonated using sulfamic, citric, succinic and acetic acid. The UV-vis spectroscopy is applied to estimate doping ...
