Micro Nanofibrillated Cellulose as Functional Additive Supporting Processability of Surface-Active Mineral Suspensions: Exemplified by Pixel Coating of an NOx-Sorbent Layer
(MDPI, 2023)
Unlike established coating formulations, functional particulate coatings often demand the omission of polymer dispersant so as to retain surface functionality. This results in heterogeneous complex rheology. We take an ...
Biomedical Applications of Thermosensitive Hydrogels for Controlled/Modulated Piroxicam Delivery
(MDPI, 2023)
The objectives of this study are the synthesis of thermosensitive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate), p(NiPAm-HPMet), hydrogels and the analysis of a drug-delivery system based on piroxicam, as a ...
The Impact of Ca2+ on Intracellular Distribution of Hemoglobin in Human Erythrocytes
(MDPI AG, 2023)
The membrane-bound hemoglobin (Hb) fraction impacts red blood cell (RBC) rheology and metabolism. Therefore, Hb–RBC membrane interactions are precisely controlled. For instance, the signaling function of membrane-bound ...
New copper (II) complexes derived from azo pyridone dyes: Structure characterization, thermal properties, and molecular docking studies
(John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2023)
Two azo dye ligands, bearing different substituents (chlorine atom or methoxy group) in the para-position of the phenyl ring, were employed for the synthesis of two Cu(II) chelates. Full structural affirmation of complexes ...
The development of a combined enzymatic and microbial fermentation as a viable technology for the spent coffee ground full utilization
(Biomass Conversion and Biorefinery, 2023)
This study demonstrated the innovative biotransformation aspect of spent coffee grounds (SCG) by application of the specific enzymatic cocktail with addition of lactic acid bacteria strain Lactobacillus rhamnosus (ATCC (R) ...
Continuous production of fructo-oligosaccharides using selectively immobilized fructosyltransferase from Aspergillus aculeatus onto Purolite® A109
(Korean Society of Industrial Engineering Chemistry, 2023)
Within this study, the investigation of potential selective immobilization of fructosyltransferase (FTase) derived from Aspergillus aculeatus (from commercial enzyme preparation Pectinex® Ultra SP-L) onto the polystyrenic ...
Manuka Honey/2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate/Gelatin Hybrid Hydrogel Scaffolds for Potential Tissue Regeneration
(MDPI, 2023)
Scaffolding biomaterials are gaining great importance due to their beneficial properties for medical purposes. Targeted biomaterial engineering strategies through the synergy of different material types can be applied to ...
Isotherm, Thermodynamic and Kinetic Studies of Elemental Sulfur Removal from Mineral Insulating Oils Using Highly Selective Adsorbent
(MDPI, 2023)
Elemental sulfur (S8) is a corrosive sulfur compound which was found to be extremely reactive to silver, causing intensive silver sulfide (Ag2S) deposition on on-load tap changer (OLTC) contacts in power transformers. A ...
Magneto-Mechanical and Thermal Properties of Nd-Fe-B-Epoxy-Bonded Composite Materials
(MDPI, 2023)
Polymer-bonded magnets are a class of composite material that combines the magnetic properties of metal particles and the molding possibility of a polymeric matrix. This class of materials has shown huge potential for ...
Determining the Role of Acicular Ferrite Carbides in Cleavage Fracture Crack Initiation for Two Medium Carbon Microalloyed Steels
(MDPI, 2023)
Two medium-carbon microalloyed steels with a predominant acicular ferrite microstructure were investigated in this study in order to determine the initial micro-crack formation mechanism and the role of acicular ferrite ...
