Optimized preparation of alumina based fillers for tuning composite properties
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
Alumina based particles were prepared from aluminium chloride hydroxide as starting material by sol-gel technique. One series of particles was doped with ferrous oxide. Both series of particles were calcinated at three ...
Novel resveratrol delivery systems based on alginate-sucrose and alginate-chitosan microbeads containing liposomes
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
We reported the design of liposome-loaded Ca-alginate microspheres as a drug delivery system for controlled release of resveratrol. The effect of admixed sucrose and chitosan coating was assessed in terms of physicochemical, ...
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 ...
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 ...
Antibacterial activity of Cu-based nanoparticles synthesized on the cotton fabrics modified with polycarboxylic acids
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
The fabrication of antimicrobial textile nanocomposite by in situ synthesis of Cu-based nanoparticles on cotton fabrics modified with different polycarboxylic acids was discussed in this study. In order to evaluate the ...
Mesoporous Silica and Organosilica Nanomaterials as UV-Blocking Agents
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2018)
Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) and periodic mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles containing bridging benzene (PMOBTB) and ethane (PMOBTE) moieties are synthesized, characterized, and evaluated for application in ...
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. ...
The impact of high-power ultrasound and microwave on the phenolic acid profile and antioxidant activity of the extract from yellow soybean seeds
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
The aim of the study was to investigate and compare several extraction protocols like 1) high-power ultrasound probe assisted solvent extraction; 2) microwave assisted solvent extraction; 3) direct acid hydrolysis; 4) ...
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 ...
The study of thermal behavior of montmorillonite and hydromica brick clays in predicting tunnel kiln firing curve
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
The aim of this study was to test montmorillonite and hydromica type of brick clays by using simultaneous thermal analysis and dilatometry in an assessment of the suitability of brick clays to produce building elements. ...
