Green corrosion inhibitors of steel based on peptides and their constituents: a combination of experimental and computational approach
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2023)
In this work, six groups of non-toxic compounds were tested as inhibitors for mild steel in 1 M HCl solution: glycine (Gly), glutamic acid (Glu), cysteine (Cys), a mixture of three amino acids glycine, glutamic acid, and ...
Optical switching of bent-core liquid crystals with azocinnamoyl units
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2023)
We report on observations of optical switching in bent-core liquid crystals possessing azocinnamoyl groups in both elongated side arms. UV-activated switching was observed in two of the synthesised materials, both of which ...
A Spontaneous Cervical Epidural Hematoma Mimicking a Stroke: A Challenging Case
(Elsevier USA, 2019)
Background: A spontaneous cervical epidural hematoma (SCEH) is a rare occurrence, with < 500 cases reported to date. Clinically, it usually presents with quadriparesis, but in extremely rare cases it can present with ...
Surface cleaning of raw cotton fibers with atmospheric pressure air plasma
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2018)
In this work, a possibility to use atmospheric pressure plasma treatment to clean cotton fibers surface was investigated. Dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) operating in air was used as plasma source. After plasma treatment, ...
Functional fermented whey carrot beverage - qualitative, nutritive and techno-economic analysis
(Ars Docendi, Bucharest, 2018)
The main objectives of the paper were to investigate the possibility of use of carrot juice in the production of functional fermented whey based beverage, to simulate and economically evaluate the production process and ...
The Realm of Smart Biomass Degrading Enzymes in Low-Carbon Fuels and Chemicals Production
(Cham : Springer, 2024)
Due to the depletion of fossil fuel sources and the issues posed by climate change, there is an increasing demand for renewable and sustainable fuel alternatives. Biofuels are a viable replacement for fossil fuels since ...
Characterization analysis of Poplar fluff pyrolysis products. Multi-component kinetic study
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2019)
This paper describes the pyrolysis of Poplar fluff (from Populus alba) using on-line apparatus, and carbonization process at 850 degrees C using the fixed bed reactor. Characteristics of pyrolysis products were examined. ...
Cold gelation of leaf protein concentrate for nanoencapsulation of vitamins
(Zagreb, Croatia : Croatian Society of Food Technologists, Biotechnologists and Nutritionists, 2022)
Nowadays, the necessity for dietary nutrient encapsulation emerges largely since the action of digestive enzymes causes the loss of structural integrity and function of nutrients. Proteins have high nutritional value and ...
Experimental Investigation of Microstructure and Phase Transitions in Ag-Cu-Zn Brazing Alloys
(Springer, 2018)
Microstructure and phase transitions of selected brazing alloys from the Ag-Cu-Zn ternary system were investigated. Four ternary alloys with silver content in the compositional range from 25 to 60 wt.% were studied using ...
Enzymatic treatment of soy protein concentrate: influence on the potential techno-functional and antioxidant properties
(Skopje: Consulting and Training Center - KEY, 2019)
In recent years, there has been an unprecedented demand by both consumers and industry, for inexpensive plant-derived protein hydrolysates as potential dietary sources of antioxidants. This is a particular refers to the ...
