Electrokinetic and sorption properties of hydrogen peroxide treated flax fibers (Linum usitatissimum L.)
(Cellulose, 2021)
Hydrogen peroxide represents an ecologically and economically acceptable agent for bleaching of flax fibers. The influence of hydrogen peroxide treatment under different conditions, i.e. hydrogen peroxide concentrations ...
Systematic review: gastric microbiota in health and disease
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2020)
Background Helicobacter pylori is the most infamous constituent of the gastric microbiota and its presence is the strongest risk factor for gastric cancer and other gastroduodenal diseases. Although historically the healthy ...
Characterization of potential probiotic strain, L. reuteri B2, and its microencapsulation using alginate-based biopolymers
(International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2021)
In this study, Lactobacillus reuteri B2 was isolated from the feces of C57BL/6 mice and assessed on probiotic activity. L. reuteri B2 was identified by 16S rDNA sequencing, which the cell viability in acidic conditions at ...
Mechanochemically assisted solid-state and citric acid complex syntheses of Cu-doped sodium cobaltite ceramicsh
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2015)
In the last decade, the sodium cobaltite ceramic became a promising candidate for potential thermoelectric applications, because of its large thermopower and low resistivity. In this work, polycrystalline samples of ...
The structural, electrical and optical properties of spark plasma sintered BaSn1-xSbxO3 ceramics
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Antimony doped barium-stannate dense ceramic materials were synthesized using spark plasma sintering technique out of mechanically activated precursor powders. The influence of various Sb concentrations (x = 0.00 - 0.10) ...
Halochromic cellulose textile obtained via dyeing with biocolorant isolated from Streptomyces sp. strain NP4
(Cellulose, 2021)
Halochromic (pH-responsive) material was obtained by dyeing functionalized viscose fabric with a crude extract from Streptomyces sp. strain NP4. The functionalization of the fabric before dyeing was performed to make ...
Recommendations for replacing PET on packaging, fiber, and film materials with biobased counterparts
(Green Chemistry, 2021)
This review sheds light on urgent questions that arise from the need to replace a polymer resin,-poly(ethylene terephthalate), which represents 7.7% market-share in the global plastic demand (Plastics-the Facts 2019), by ...
Structural insight into the fiber dyeing ability: Pyridinium arylazo pyridone dyes
(Elsevier Ltd., 2021)
Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of nine 6-hydroxy-4-methyl-3-pyridinium-2-pyridone based azo dyes, wherein, eight of them being novel. Used building blocks ensured water solubility of six dyes and made ...
The chitosan-based bioactive composite coating on titanium
(Elsevier B.V., 2021)
This paper describes a promising electrophoretic deposition (EPD) approach for developing composite coatings based on chitosan with the additional components of hydroxyapatite, graphene, and gentamicin on titanium substrate. ...
Spatial distribution, radiological risk assessment and positive matrix factorization of gamma-emitting radionuclides in the sediment of the Boka Kotorska Bay
(Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2021)
Surface sediment from the Boka Kotorska Bay (Adriatic Sea) was analyzed for the content of technogenic cesium (137Cs) and naturally occurring (40K, 226Ra, 232Th, 238U) radionuclides. The activity concentrations of the ...
