The effect of incompletely condensed polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) on hybrid film adhesion
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) structure on the adhesion behaviour of composite films onto a metallic surface. The composite films consisted of ...
Single-step, electrophoretically deposited hydroxyapatite/poly(vinyl alcohol)/chitosan/gentamicin coating for biomedical applications
(Society of Chemists and Technologists of Macedonia, 2023)
Biocomposite hydroxyapatite/poly(vinyl alcohol)/chitosan/gentamicin coatings were fabricated on titanium by an electrophoretic deposition process (EPD) from an aqueous suspension using the constant voltage method. ...
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 ...
Phenolic Compounds and Antioxidant Properties of Field-Grown and In Vitro Leaves, and Calluses in Blackberry and Blueberry
(Horticulturae, 2021)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the content and profile of the phenolic compounds (PCs) and antioxidant properties of field-grown leaves, in vitro leaves and in vitro callus cultures of the blackberry 'Cacanska ...
Improvement of VIS and IR camouflage properties by impregnating cotton fabric with PVB/IF-WS2
(Defence Technology, 2021)
In order to examine the possibility to improve its camouflage properties standard cotton fabric with camouflage print was impregnated with poly(vinyl butyral), PVB and fullerene-like nanoparticles of tungsten disulfide, ...
Upgrading of valuable food component contents and anti-nutritional factors depletion by solid-state fermentation: A way to valorize wheat bran for nutrition
(Academic Press, 2021)
Wheat bran is a by-product of wheat flour production used as a nutritious and economic feed ingredient, but since it possesses several anti-nutritional factors that entrap nutrients and interfere with digestion and absorption, ...
