The effects of pollinizers on pollen tube growth and fruit set of European plum (Prunus domestica L.) in a Nordic climate
(Scientia Horticulturae, 2021)
Norwegian plum production is characterized by climatic limitations, different flowering time, deficiently of wholly-adapted cultivars and appropriate pollen donors for cultivars that can be grown in this region. This study ...
Chitosan Nanoparticles Functionalized Viscose Fabrics as Potentially Durable Antibacterial Medical Textiles
(Materials, 2021)
This research proposed two pretreatments of viscose fabrics: oxidation with 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxy radical (TEMPO) and coating with TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (TOCN), to introduce functional groups ...
Biosorbents from Plant Fibers of Hemp and Flax for Metal Removal: Comparison of Their Biosorption Properties
(MDPI AG, 2021)
Lignocellulosic fibers extracted from plants are considered an interesting raw material for environmentally friendly products with multiple applications. This work investigated the feasibility of using hemp- and flax-based ...
Development of protease nanobiocatalysts and their application in hydrolysis of sunflower meal protein isolate
(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2021)
In this study, the suitability of fumed silica nanoparticles (FNS) and its derivatives (amino-modified FNS (AFNS), cyanuric chloride-activated AFNS (CCAFNS) and epoxy-modified FNS (GFNS)), for covalent immobilisation of ...
Chemical Modification of Glycoproteins' Carbohydrate Moiety as a General Strategy for the Synthesis of Efficient Biocatalysts by Biomimetic Mineralization: The Case of Glucose Oxidase
(Polymers, 2021)
Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) is widely used as a protective coating to encapsulate proteins via biomimetic mineralization. The formation of nucleation centers and further biocomposite crystal growth is entirely ...
White Chocolate with Resistant Starch: Impact on Physical Properties, Dietary Fiber Content and Sensory Characteristics
(Molecules, 2021)
Resistant starch (RS) is a part of insoluble dietary fiber, and it could be recognized as a functional food ingredient in some types of confectionery products that lack dietary fiber. Unlike dark and milk chocolate, white ...
A comparative study of chromatographic lipophilicity and bioactivity parameters of selected spirohydantoins
(Taylor & Francis Inc, Philadelphia, 2020)
In this study, lipophilicity of 21 cycloalkylspiro-5-hidantoins was assessed. The overall goal of lipophilicity evaluation is preliminary investigation which should result in a decrease of the traditionally high attrition ...
Utilization of supercritical carbon dioxide for development of antibacterial surgical sutures
(Elsevier B.V., 2022)
Outbreak of surgical infections and bacterial resistance against synthetic antibiotic has prompted research towards development of antibacterial medical devices. For that purpose, absorbable surgical sutures were impregnated ...
Hydroxyapatite/nifuroxazide conjugate: Characterization, drug release and antimicrobial activity / Хидроксиапатит/нифуроксазид конјугат: карактеризација, отпуштање лека и антимикробна активност
(Serbian Chemical Society, 2021)
Synthetic hydroxyapatite (Ca-10(PO4)(6)(OH)(2), HAp) is very similar to the inorganic part of the bones and teeth of mammals. It is a well-known biomaterial with good biocompatibility, osteoconductivity and bioactivity. ...
Sitting position awake craniostomy with drainage for chronic subdural hematoma: a viable alternative?
(Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2021)
Background/Aim. Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is one of the most frequent neurosurgical conditions with an overall incidence ranging from 1.72 to 20.6 per 100,000 persons per year. The surgical procedure for CSDH is ...
