TEMPO-oxidized cotton as a substrate for trypsin immobilization: impact of functional groups on proteolytic activity and stability
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2017)
Cotton fibers containing different amounts of aldehyde and carboxyl groups were prepared by varying TEMPO oxidation conditions and then employed as carriers for trypsin immobilization. Depending on the functional group ...
Antibacterial activity of heavy metal-loaded natural zeolite
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2012)
The antibacterial activity of natural zeolitized tuffs containing 2.60 wt.% Cu2+, 1.47 Zn2+ or 0.52 Ni2+ were tested. Antibacterial activities of the zeolites against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were tested ...
Leaching properties of secondary lead slag stabilized/solidified with cement and selected additives
(Environment Protection Engineering, 2013)
Sodium lead slag, generated during secondary lead production, is characterized as hazardous waste. The aim of the study was to investigate leaching mechanism and behaviour of lead and arsenic from sodium lead slag previously ...
Diffusion of polyphenols from alginate, alginate/chitosan, and alginate/inulin particles
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2019)
Thymus serpyllum L (thyme) aqueous extract was encapsulated within three different types of particles. Thus, electrostatic extrusion was applied to obtain alginate, alginate/chitosan, and alginate/inulin particles with ...
Design and characterization of self-assembled fish sarcoplasmic protein-alginate nanocomplexes
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2015)
Macrostructures based on natural polymers are subject to large attention, as the application range is wide within the food and pharmaceutical industries. In this study we present nanocomplexes (NCXs) made from electrostatic ...
Preparation of TiO2/carbon nanotubes photocatalysts: The influence of the method of oxidation of the carbon nanotubes on the photocatalytic activity of the nanocomposites
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2012)
A method for the preparation of efficient TiO2/multi-wall carbon nanotubes nanocomposite photocatalysts by precipitation of anatase TiO2 nanoparticles onto differently oxidized carbon nanotubes is presented. The precursor ...
Evaluation of alginate hydrogels under in vivo-like bioreactor conditions for cartilage tissue engineering
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2010)
Alginate hydrogels in forms of discs and packed beds of microbeads (similar to 800 mu m) were tested in a novel bioreactor at 10% strain using two regimes: at a loading rate of 337.5 mu m/s and at sequential increments of ...
Iron-Modified Sepiolite for Ni2+ Sorption from Aqueous Solution: An Equilibrium, Kinetic, and Thermodynamic Study
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2010)
Sepiolite was used for the synthesis of the sepiolite-iron oxide system to obtain a sorbent suitable for the removal of Ni2+ from aqueous solution. The modified material, Fe-sepiolite, was characterized by X-ray diffraction ...
The effect of annealing temperatures on magnetic and electric properties of electrodeposited Ni85,3Fe10,6W1,4Cu2,2 alloy
(Natl Inst Optoelectronics, Bucharest-Magurele, 2014)
Ni-85,Ni-8 Fe-10,Fe-6 W-1,W-4 Cu-2,Cu-2 alloy powder consisting of an amorphous matrix and nanocrystals of an FCC solid solution of Fe, W and Cu in nickel was produced by electrodeposition. Heating the pressed powder sample ...
Influence of hemicelluloses and lignin content on structure and sorption properties of flax fibers (Linum usitatissimum L.)
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2018)
In this work, alkali and oxidative treatments were employed to obtain flax fibers with different content of hemicelluloses and lignin, in order to study the influence of chemical composition on structure and sorption ...
