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 ...
Antioxidant capacity of dark red corn – Biochemical properties coupled with electrochemical evaluation
(Revista de Chimie, 2020)
Biochemistry coupled with electrochemical approach is employed in a fast, relatively simple, yet highly precise detection of a plant extract antioxidant properties. Antioxidant capacity of dark red corn grains was investigated ...
Charge assisted assembly of zwitterionic pyridone hydrates
(Journal of Molecular Structure, 2021)
Two pyridone derivatives, bearing the pyridinium moiety (1), or dimethylpyridinium moiety (2), have been synthesized and their crystal structures have been determined. The compounds crystalize in hydrated zwitterionic forms ...
The characterization and pollution status of the surface sediment in the Boka Kotorska Bay, Montenegro
(Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2021)
Surface sediments collected from twelve stations in the Boka Kotorska Bay were analyzed for the level and distribution of twenty-six elements and ten oxides, grain sizes, organic matter, and carbonate content. Potentially ...
Controlled Curcumin Release from Hydrogel Scaffold Platform Based on 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate/Gelatin/Alginate/Iron(III) Oxide
(Wiley-VCH Verlag Gmbh, Weinheim, 2020)
The strategy of combining polymers of natural and synthetic origin with inorganic components to use their unique synergistic effect for the development of the novel, sophisticated, and efficient 3D polymeric biomaterials, ...
Formulation and characterization of novel liposomes containing histidine for encapsulation of a poorly soluble vitamin
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2020)
In this study, development of folic acid-loaded liposomes using a basic amino acid, histidine as a solubilizing agent for folic acid was presented, which tackled the poor solubility of this vitamin. The effect of the ...
Antibacterial Activity of pH-Sensitive Silver(I)/Poly(2-hydroxyethyl acrylate/itaconic acid) Hydrogels
(Polymer Soc Korea, Seoul, 2020)
Since the management of infections becomes prior global healthcare issue, the "post antibiotic era" requires innovative and interdisciplinary approach. As an alternative to widespread and, nowdays mostly uneffective, ...
Surface Patterning Increases Fluid Sorption Efficiency in Porous Reactive Coatings: A Model for Optimised Surface-Flow Filtration
(Transport in Porous Media, 2021)
A novel surface-flow filter has been designed to take advantage of a combination of both diffusion and lateral flow permeation, since active coatings, even if porous, tend to be far less permeable than through-flow constructs. ...
Modification of hydrophilic polymer network to design a carrier for a poorly water-soluble substance
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2020)
pH sensitive, nontoxic, and biocompatible poly(methacrylic) acid (PMAA) based soft networks have been extensively used in the design of systems for targeted drug delivery. Still, their highly hydrophilic nature limits their ...
A novel chitosan/tripolyphosphate/L-lysine conjugates for latent fingerprints detection and enhancement
(Journal of Forensic Sciences, 2020)
Most chemical and physical methods employed in visualizing latent marks have shown detrimental effects on human health and, therefore, some research groups have directed their attention to the utilization of various ...
