Optimisation of microwave-assisted extraction parameters for antioxidants from waste Achillea millefolium dust
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2015)
Microwave-assisted extraction of polyphenols and flavonoids from waste Achillea millefolium (yarrow) dust was optimised using the response surface methodology. The influence of the extraction time (13-47 s), ethanol ...
Structural Elucidation of Enzymatically Synthesized Galacto-oligosaccharides Using Ion-Mobility Spectrometry Tandem Mass Spectrometry
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2016)
Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) represent a diverse group of well-characterized prebiotic ingredients derived from lactose in a reaction catalyzed with beta-galactosidases. Enzymatic transgalactosylation results in a mixture ...
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 ...
Development of material with strong antimicrobial activity by high pressure CO2 impregnation of polyamide nanofibers with thymol
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
This study discusses the potential of high pressure (supercritical and liquid) CO2 impregnation to load electrospun polyamide nanofibers with thymol as an antimicrobial agent. The influence of selected pressures and ...
A green approach to starch modification by solvent-free method with betaine hydrochloride
(International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2021)
In this study, a novel simple and eco-efficient, semi-dry method with a spray system for starch modification has been developed. Compared to conventional semi-dry methods, this method does not use solvents so that no slurry ...
Biomimic hybrid polymer networks based on casein and poly(methacrylic acid). Case study: Ni2+ removal
(Royal Soc Chemistry, Cambridge, 2016)
Mimicking the extraordinary performances of natural materials presents an attractive, but challenging approach in the synthesis of advanced functional materials. In the field of separation techniques, the design of a ...
Volatile organic compounds (VOC) policy innovation in petrochemicals river barge transportation
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
The aim of this paper was to emphasise the need for a volatile organic compounds VOC policy review in the field of river barge transportation of petrochemicals. Review of the VOC policy shows that barges neither fall under ...
Influence of annealing temperature on the baking response and corrosion properties of an Al-4.6 wt% Mg alloy with 0.54 wt% Cu
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2015)
The effect of different thermo-mechanical processing parameters on the baking response, and intergranular corrosion (IGC) resistance of an Al-4.6 wt% Mg-0.54 wt% Cu alloy was investigated. It has been shown that the high ...
Novel modified nanocellulose applicable as reinforcement in high-performance nanocomposites
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
The influence of modification and vacuum/supercritical CO2 (scCO(2)) drying methods on the surface properties, morphology and thermal stability of cellulose nanocrystals (NC) was presented in this study. Introduction of ...
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. ...
