Semi-interpenetrating networks based on (Meth)acrylate, itaconic acid, and poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) hydrogels for biomedical applications
(Springer Singapore, 2020)
In this study, three series of semi-interpenetrating networks were synthesized based on 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate (HEA), itaconic acid (IA), and poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) as interpenetrating ...
Matrix resistance stress reduction-prerequisite for achieving higher concentration of immobilized cells
(Materials for Biomedical Engineering: Bioactive Materials, Properties, and Applications, 2019)
Some of the main rheological properties that Ca-alginate hydrogel matrix should satisfy for biomedical and biotechnological applications are the matrix viscoelasticity and the ability of stress relaxation. Although alginate ...
Compatibilization of polymer blends by the addition of graft copolymers
(Compatibilization of Polymer Blends: Micro and Nano Scale Phase Morphologies, Interphase Characteriz, 2019)
Polymer blends are mixtures of two or more polymers that are very often immiscible components and they need to be compatibilized. The compatibilization must not only ensure improvement in microstructure uniformity, but ...
Antimicrobial properties of (meth)acrylate based hydrogels
(An Introduction to Antibacterial Properties, 2020)
The rapid emergence of antibiotic-resistant pathogens is becoming an imminent global public health problem. The development of novel antimicrobial materials aiming to prevent or control infections caused by these pathogens ...
The Effect of the Nanostructured Surface Modification on the Morphology and Biocompatibility of Ultrafine-Grained Titanium Alloy for Medical Application
(Hoboken : John Wiley & SonsBeverly : Scrivener Publishing LLC, 2024)
Primary implant stability after implantation is in relation with its good mechanical contact with the touching tissue. Adequate integration of the implant with the bone tissue is necessary to provide safety and efficiency ...
Effects of Water Immersion on Mechanical Properties of Kevlar Composites Reinforced with ZnO Nanoparticles
(Springer Nature Switzerland, 2024)
The Kevlar fabric composites have a wide range of applications in the
body armor and lightweight vehicle-armor structures. Nanoparticles are one of the
most common nanofillers for these structures. In this research, the ...
Lipid nanocarriers for phytochemical delivery in foods
(CRC Press, 2018)
The delivery of different bioactive compounds in foods is a popular and convenient approach to provide healthy functional foods, but it usually requires an additional step—encapsulation—to provide functional foods with ...
Recent advances in and applications of encapsulated microbial and non-microbial active agents in food and beverage manufacture
(John Wiley & Sons, 2015)
Encapsulation is a well-established process that allows formulation of a wide range of active agents within a defined carrier material using various techniques. This chapter describes the general concept and benefits of ...
The contribution of bioactive peptides of whey to quality of food products
(Academic Press, 2018)
Whey proteins are sources of biologically active peptides that can be released by controlled enzymatic hydrolysis or bacterial activity. Whey peptides have a wide range of bioactivities (ACE-inhibitory activity, antioxidant ...
Galacto-Oligosaccharide Synthesis by Transgalactosylation Activity of β-Galactosidase: Recent Trends, Challenges and Future Perspectives
(2019 Nova Science Publishers, Inc., 2019)
The growing interest in functional foods and their beneficial effects
on human health, yielded due interest in the field of obtaining novel
bioactive ingredients featuring enhanced physiological and
physical/chemical ...
