Review on environmental models in the food chain - Current status and future perspectives
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
Diversity of food systems and their interaction with the environment has become a research topic for many years. Scientists use various models to explain environmental issues of food systems. This paper gives an overview ...
In situ synthesis of Cu/Cu2O nanoparticles on the TEMPO oxidized cotton fabrics
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2018)
In situ synthesis of Cu/Cu2O nanoparticles on the cotton fabric discussed in this study relies on adsorption of Cu2+-ions by carboxylate groups generated through the TEMPO-mediated oxidation of cellulose and their subsequent ...
Composite nanostructured hydroxyapatite/yttrium stabilized zirconia dental inserts - The processing and application as dentin substitutes
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
The objective of the study was to process nano-structured hydroxyapatite/yttrium-stabilized zirconia bioceramic and to investigate the possibilities of its application as dentin replacement in the form of dental inserts. ...
Influence of common juniper berries pretreatment on the essential oil yield, chemical composition and extraction kinetics of classical and microwave assisted hydrodistillation
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
The present paper dealt with the influence of the common juniper berries pretreatment on the yield, chemical composition and extraction kinetics of juniper essential oil (JEO) obtained by classical (HD) and microwave ...
Experimental design of the Cu-As-Sn ternary colour diagram
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2018)
The aesthetic appearance of metals has long been recognised in archaeometric studies as an important factor driving inventions and innovations in the evolution of metal production. Nevertheless, while studies of ancient ...
Optical properties of composite restorations influenced by dissimilar dentin restoratives
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
Objectives. To evaluate optical properties (color and translucency) of 'sandwich' restorations of resin-based composites and esthetically unfavorable dentin restoratives. Methods. Cylindrical 'dentin' specimens (8 mm in ...
Edible blend films of pectin and poly(ethylene glycol): Preparation and physico-chemical evaluation
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
The aim of this study was the development of novel polysaccharide based films intended to be used as edible food packaging material. The films were prepared by solution casting method using highly methoxylated pectin (PEC) ...
Silver/poly(vinyl alcohol)/chitosan/graphene hydrogels - Synthesis, biological and physicochemical properties and silver release kinetics
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
This study presents the synthesis of novel silver/poly(vinyl alcohol)/chitosan/graphene (Ag/PVA/CHI/Gr) nanocomposite hydrogels by in situ electrochemical reduction of silver ions in the hydrogel matrix and their thorough ...
Lactic acid production on molasses enriched potato stillage by Lactobacillus paracasei immobilized onto agro-industrial waste supports
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
In this study, the production of lactic acid (LA) on sugar beet molasses enriched potato stillage by immobilized Lactobacillus paracasei NRRL B-4564 was examined. Three agro-industrial materials, such as sunflower seed ...
Achieving high antimicrobial activity: Composite alginate hydrogel beads releasing activated charcoal with an immobilized active agent
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
New composites based on Ca-alginate hydrogels were produced that release activated charcoal (AC) particles with adsorbed povidone iodine (PVP-I) as a model antimicrobial substance in a physiological-like environment. ...
