Design of pectin-sodium alginate based films for potential healthcare application: Study of chemico-physical interactions between the components of films and assessment of their antimicrobial activity
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
In this study, pectin based films including different amounts of sodium alginate were prepared by casting method. All the films, with and without polyglycerol as plasticizer, were crosslinked with zinc ions in order to ...
Molecular weight distribution and functional group profiles of TEMPO-oxidized lyocell fibers
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
The effects of TEMPO-mediated oxidation, performed with NaClO, a catalytic amount of NaBr, and 2,2',6,6'-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxy radical (TEMPO), were studied on lyocell fibers by means of GPC using multiple detection ...
Antioxidant edible films based on chitosan and starch containing polyphenols from thyme extracts
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
The aim of this study was to analyse the antioxidant activity of different polymeric matrices based on chitosan and starch, incorporating a thyme extract (TE) rich in polyphenols. TE provided the films with remarkable ...
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. ...
Alginate/soy protein system for essential oil encapsulation with intestinal delivery
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
Preparation of alginate-soy protein isolate (AL/SPI) complex beads containing essential oil of thyme was carried out by emulsification of thyme oil in aqueous sodium alginate solution blended with SPI solution, followed ...
Antibacterial activity of Cu-based nanoparticles synthesized on the cotton fabrics modified with polycarboxylic acids
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
The fabrication of antimicrobial textile nanocomposite by in situ synthesis of Cu-based nanoparticles on cotton fabrics modified with different polycarboxylic acids was discussed in this study. In order to evaluate the ...
Application of cellulose acetate for controlled release of thymol
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Cellulose acetate (CA) was investigated as a carrier towards development of material with controlled release of thymol as a natural substance with strong antibacterial properties using high pressure techniques. Effect of ...
Production of bioethanol from pre-treated cotton fabrics and waste cotton materials
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
This study highlights the potential of cotton fabric as a promising feedstock for the production of bioethanol as renewable biofuel. The effect of corona pre-treatment of non-mercerized and mercerized cotton fabrics on ...
Pectin-based nanocomposite aerogels for potential insulated food packaging application
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
Environmental-friendly pectin-TiO2 nanocomposite aerogels were prepared via sol-gel process and subsequent drying under supercritical conditions. The first step includes dissolution of pectin in water, addition of proper ...
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 ...
