Green pH- and magnetic-responsive hybrid hydrogels based on poly(methacrylic acid) and Eucalyptus wood nanocellulose for controlled release of ibuprofen
(Cellulose, 2021)
pH- and magnetic-sensitive hybrid hydrogels based on poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA), nanocellulose (NC), carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and magnetite particles (MN) were prepared as ibuprofen delivery system. NC was isolated ...
Optimization of modifier deposition on the alumina surface to enhance mechanical properties and cavitation resistance
(Springer, New York, 2020)
Composites based on poly(methyl methacrylate), dimethyl itaconate matrix and alumina particles were prepared. Ferrous oxide-doped alumina particles (Al2O3Fe) and commercial alumina nanoparticles (Al(2)O(3)n) modified with ...
Oxidized Hemp Fibers with Simultaneously Increased Capillarity and Reduced Moisture Sorption as Suitable Textile Material for Advanced Application in Sportswear
(Fibers and Polymers, 2021)
Applications of hemp fibers, as a promising natural material in the textile field, mostly require improved fiber properties. In this paper, the oxidation of hemp fibers with potassium permanganate was applied to reduce the ...
Closing the Loop: Dyeing and Adsorption Potential of Mulberry Wood Waste
(Journal of Natural Fibers, 2022)
This study reports the successful transformation of mulberry wood waste into natural textile dye and adsorbent for Pb2+ ions from an aqueous solution. Fabrics of different chemical compositions were dyed using mulberry ...
Modification of PET and PA fabrics with alginate and copper oxides nanoparticles
(Composite Interfaces, 2021)
The aim of this study was to fabricate novel antimicrobial nanocomposite materials by in-situ syntheses of Cu-based nanoparticles on PET and PA fabrics. The synthesis comprised three steps: (i) modification of PET and PA ...
Effect of neutralization degree of methacrylic acid on hydrogel swelling and drug release
(the Faculty of Technology, University of Banja Luka, 2022)
Drug delivery system is an amazing tool which is widely used for drug
protection and its controlled release in order to enhance drug bioavailability,
reduce side effects and therefore to improve overall therapy. Hydrogels ...
Extraction of phenolic compounds from agro-industrial wastes and evaluation of their antioxidative potential
(Skopje, Macedonia : Consulting and Training Center - KEY, 2021)
Constant world population growth imposes the need for the production of more food, and as a consequence, has an increase in the organic-rich wastes. These agro-industrial wastes represent problem from the environmental ...
Design of biopolymer carriers enriched with natural emulsifiers for improved controlled release of thyme essential oil
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2020)
This work aims to characterize a novel system for thyme essential oil delivery based on the combination of natural emulsifiers (soy protein and soy lecithin) and alginate, produced using the extrusion technique. The ...
Intraoral dental x-ray radiography in Bosnia and Herzegovina: study for revising diagnostic reference level value
(Oxford Univ Press, Oxford, 2020)
This paper presents the study that would allow a revision of the currently valid diagnostic reference level in intraoral dental X-ray radiography in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The study was conducted for six procedures that ...
Preparation of beechwood/polymer composites using the method of lyophilization and gamma irradiation
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Wooden cultural heritage serves as a very important source of information for historians and researchers. Also, it imposes an obligation on the science to keep this legacy for future generations in a proper condition. Among ...
