Antimicrobial Nanocomposites Based on Oxidized Cotton Fabric and in situ Biosynthesized Copper Oxides Nanostructures Using Bearberry Leaves Extract
(Korean Fiber Society, 2022)
The aim of this study was to develop antimicrobial nanocomposite textile material comprising of Cu-based nanostructures synthesized on oxidized cotton fabric using Arctostaphylos uva-ursi (L.) Spreng., Ericaceae (bearberry ...
Development of advanced floating poly(lactic acid)-based materials for colored wastewater treatment
(Journal of Supercritical Fluids, 2021)
The release of industrial wastewater into the ecosystem prompted our research on the development of an efficient and biodegradable material that can be used for wastewater treatment. We optimized preparation of porous ...
Accumulation of heavy metal(loid)s and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the sediment of the Prahovo Port (Danube) and associated risks
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2023)
The current study investigated the concentrations, possible sources, toxicity, and ecological risk of eight heavy metal(loid)s (As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, Zn) and sixteen priority polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) ...
Strong and tough, pH sensible, interpenetrating network hydrogels based on gelatin and poly(methacrylic acid)
(Polymer Engineering and Science, 2022)
Hydrogels are promising materials for biomedical applications due to highly hydrated, porous, permeable structure with possibility to accommodate living cells, drugs, or bioactive factors. In this paper, we reported ...
Untreated wastewater impact and environmental risk assessment of artificial sweeteners in river water and sediments of the Danube River Basin in Serbia
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2023)
Artificial sweeteners are receiving increasing attention as newly recognized emerging contaminants that mainly reach the aquatic environment through the discharge of municipal wastewater containing large amount of these ...
Novel composite scaffolds based on alginate and Mg-doped calcium phosphate fillers: Enhanced hydroxyapatite formation under biomimetic conditions
(Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B-Applied Biomaterials, 2021)
In the present study, we synthesized hydroxyapatite (HAP) powders followed by the production of alginate based macroporous scaffolds with the aim to imitate the natural bone structure. HAP powders were synthesized by using ...
Biodegradation of cellulose fibers functionalized with CuO/Cu2O nanoparticles in combination with polycarboxylic acids
(Cellulose, 2022)
Sustainable biodegradation of cellulose fibers is critical for composting after the end of a product's life. In this study, we aimed at investigating the effect of in situ synthesized CuO/Cu2O nanoparticles (NPs) with ...
Acrylic modified kraft lignin microspheres as novel support for immobilization of laccase from M.Thermophila expressed in A. oryzae (Novozym® 51003) and application in degradation of anthraquinone textile dyes
(Elsevier Ltd., 2023)
The novel lignin-based microspheres (LMS-DEGDMA) were produced through a two-step modification procedure consisting of kraft lignin (KL) modification with acrylic acid synthesized from fructose; and suspension and ...
Green pH- and magnetic-responsive hybrid hydrogels based on poly(methacrylic acid) and Eucalyptus wood nanocellulose for controlled release of ibuprofen
(Cellulose, 2021)
pH- and magnetic-sensitive hybrid hydrogels based on poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA), nanocellulose (NC), carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and magnetite particles (MN) were prepared as ibuprofen delivery system. NC was isolated ...
Optimization of modifier deposition on the alumina surface to enhance mechanical properties and cavitation resistance
(Springer, New York, 2020)
Composites based on poly(methyl methacrylate), dimethyl itaconate matrix and alumina particles were prepared. Ferrous oxide-doped alumina particles (Al2O3Fe) and commercial alumina nanoparticles (Al(2)O(3)n) modified with ...
