Chitosan-based microparticles for immobilization of TiO2 nanoparticles and their application for photodegradation of textile dyes
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
The present paper deals with removal and photocatalytic degradation of the textile dyes by TiO2 nanoparticles immobilized onto chitosan-based microparticles. The microparticles composed of chitosan (Ch) and poly(methacrylic ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Biofuel cell based on horseradish peroxidase immobilized on copper sulfide as anode for decolorization of anthraquinone AV109 dye
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2016)
The potential application of electrochemically formed copper sulfide as horseradish peroxidase mediator in the enzymatic biofuel cell and anthraquinone AV109 dye as a fuel is investigated. The open circuit voltage of 0.52 ...
The impact of sunflower and rapeseed lecithin on the rheological properties of spreadable cocoa cream
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
The rheological properties of spreadable cocoa cream containing lecithin of different origins (sunflower, rapeseed and soy lecithin) were investigated within this research. A laboratory ball mill was used to produce creams ...
Induction of wheat straw delignification by Trametes species
(Nature Publishing Group, London, 2016)
Wheat straw is the major crop residue in European countries which makes it the most promising material for bioconversion into biofuels. However, cellulose and hemicellulose are protected with lignin, so delignification is ...
The effect of genotype and temperature on pollen tube growth and fertilization in sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.)
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2016)
The study of pollen performance in vivo of four self-incompatible sweet cherry cultivars-'Karina', 'Kordia', 'Regina' and 'Summit' was performed. The results were considered in the context of climatic conditions of West ...
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, ...
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). ...
