Total quality index of Agaricus bisporus mushrooms packed in modified atmosphere
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2017)
BACKGROUNDThe aim of this study was to develop a total quality index and examine the effects of modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) on the quality of Agaricus bisporus mushrooms stored for 22 days at 4 degrees C. Mushrooms ...
Biological potential of puffballs: A comparative analysis
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2016)
Handkea utriformis (HU), H. excipuliformis (HE) and Vascellum pratense (VP) mature fruiting bodies methanol extracts were tested for biological activities and active compounds. The extracts showed prominent radical scavenging, ...
Improved beta-amylase production on molasses and sugar beet pulp by a novel strain Paenibacillus chitinolyticus CKS1
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2016)
Molasses and sugar beet pulp, by-products in sugar industry, are produced in large amounts annually which create disposal problems. High sugar content in sugar beet molasses enables its use for fermentations while sugar ...
Degradation of beech wood and wheat straw by Trametes gibbosa
(Springer, New York, 2017)
The aim of this study was to optimize cultivation conditions for Mn-oxidizing peroxidases and laccase production and selective degradation of beech wood and wheat straw lignin by Trametes gibbosa. To promote lignin ...
Photocatalytic Ability of Visible-Light-Responsive TiO2 Nanoparticles
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2016)
The synthetic procedures for preparation of free-standing and attached to polymer support surface modified TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) with absorption extended into the visible spectral region due to charge transfer complex ...
Cyanuric chloride functionalized silica nanoparticles for covalent immobilization of lipase
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2016)
BACKGROUNDIn this work, fumed nano-silica (FNS) was chemically modified to amino (AFNS) and subsequently to cyanuric chloride (CCAFNS) modified silica and tested for the immobilization of lipase from Candida rugosa (CRL). ...
Lactic acid production on a combined distillery stillage and sugar beet molasses substrate
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2016)
BACKGROUNDUtilization of wastes and industrial by-products for production of valuable bio-based chemicals has economic and environmental advantages. The aim of this study was to investigate utilization of two industrial ...
Antifungal activity of Ag:hydroxyapatite thin films synthesized by pulsed laser deposition on Ti and Ti modified by TiO2 nanotubes substrates
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2014)
Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a widely used biomaterial for implant thin films, largely recognized for its excellent capability to chemically bond to hard tissue inducing the osteogenesis without immune response from human tissues. ...
Isopiestic determination of the osmotic and activity coefficients of the {yMg(NO3)(2) + (1-y)MgSO4}(aq) system at T=298.15 K
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2017)
Isopiestic (vapor pressure) measurements were made for aqueous mixtures of Mg(NO3)(2) and MgSO4 at T = (298.15 +/- 0.01) K with Mg(NO3)(2) ionic strength fractions y = (0.19691, 0.42542, 0.60113, 0.79583, and 1), along ...
Unique effects of microwave heating on polymerization kinetics of poly(methyl methacrylate) composites
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2013)
The effects of heating mode (conventional and microwave) on the kinetics of isothermal polymerization of MMA composite materials were investigated. Isothermal kinetics curves at temperature range from 343 K to 363 K for ...
