Adipoinductive effect of extracellular matrix involves cytoskeleton changes and SIRT1 activity in adipose tissue stem/stromal cells
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2018)
Adipose tissue (AT) homeostasis and expansion are dependent on complex crosstalk between resident adipose stromal/stem cells (ASCs) and AT extracellular matrix (ECM). Although adipose tissue ECM (atECM) is one of the key ...
Experimental and modelling study on strontium removal from aqueous solutions by Lagenaria vulgaris biosorbent
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
The shell of Lagenaria vulgaris (LV) plant was used as biosorbent for strontium removal from aqueous solutions. Chemical structure of the biosorbent's surface was characterized by the means of FTIR and Boehm's titrations. ...
Tube for obtaining crystals in a laboratory furnace
(Int Union Crystallography, Chester, 2018)
A design for an air-cooled tube (crystallization incubator') installed in a laboratory tube furnace is presented. The setup allows regulation and simultaneous crystallization of several substances at different temperature ...
Dispersion efficiency of montmorillonites in epoxy nanocomposites using solution intercalation and direct mixing methods
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
The major aims of this paper are the investigation of the effects of the mixing procedure and the montmorillonite (Mt) surface modification on the structure (optical microscopy, XRD, TEM, SEM), rheological, mechanical ...
Honeybees as sentinels of lead pollution: Spatio-temporal variations and source appointment using stable isotopes and Kohonen self-organizing maps
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2018)
In this study, honeybees were used to determine spatio-temporal variations and origin sources of Pb. Lead concentrations and isotopic composition were used in combination with selected statistical methods. The sampling was ...
Tomato pomace powder as a raw material for ketchup production
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
A value-added ketchup from tomato pomace powder was developed and compared to a previously developed ketchup from fresh tomato pomace. The total dietary fiber content of tomato pomace powder ketchup was higher than fresh ...
Sintering, crystallization and foaming of La2O3 center dot SrO center dot 5B(2)O(3) glass powders - effect of the holding temperature and the heating rate
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
The peculiarities of sinter-crystallization of La2O3 center dot SrO center dot 5B(2)O(3) fine glass powder (below 1 mu m) are investigated and discussed. The sintering was studied by contactless optical dilatometry and ...
A linear and non-linear polynomial neural network modeling of dissolved oxygen content in surface water: Inter- and extrapolation performance with inputs' significance analysis
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
Accurate prediction of water quality parameters (WQPs) is an important task in the management of water resources. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are frequently applied for dissolved oxygen (DO) prediction, but often ...
Effect of compositional data in the multivariate analysis of sterol concentrations in river sediments
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
In this paper, multivariate analysis of sterol concentrations detected in river sediment samples was performed. In order to remove co-dependence of values, concentrations of sterols were transformed using centered log-ratio ...
Synthesis and characterization of fully bio-based unsaturated polyester resins
(Springer, New York, 2018)
The sustainable tomorrow for future generations lies with the present industrial development toward the proper utilization of various bio-based products. For a transition to a higher level of sustainability, it is necessary ...
