Arsenic in Agricultural Soils of a Historically Mined and Industrial Region of Southern Serbia and Northern Kosovo: Bioavailability and Uptake by Plants Species Zea mays L. and Solanum tuberosum L.
(Taylor & Francis Inc, Philadelphia, 2015)
This article reports the results of a study focused on the presence and bioavailability of arsenic in agricultural soil in the mining and industrial regions of northern Kosovo and southern Serbia, as well as uptake and ...
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 ...
Towards antimicrobial yet bioactive Cu-alginate hydrogels
(IOP Publishing Ltd, Bristol, 2016)
The simplest approach to enhance alginate hydrogel characteristics and functional properties is to replace the calcium in the process of alginate gelation with other metallic ions which are essential for living systems. ...
Novel Approach for Flavonoid Esters Production: Statistically Optimized Enzymatic Synthesis Using Natural Oils and Application in Cosmetics
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2019)
The present work describes application of natural triglycerides for lipase-catalyzed esterification of structurally diverse flavonoids-esculin, naringin, and phloridzin. Ester mixtures with laurate, linolenate, or linoleate ...
Removal of Anthraquinone Dye by Cross-Linked Enzyme Aggregates From Fresh Horseradish Extract
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2016)
Horseradish roots (Armoracia rusticana) fresh extract was the source of unpurified horseradish peroxidase (HRP) which was used for the immobilization in a form of cross-linked enzyme aggregates (CLEAs). Among three ...
A novel chitosan gels: Supercritical CO2 drying and impregnation with thymol
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2018)
Supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO(2)) technology was used for preparation of functional pH sensitive chitosan-based aerogels characterized with micron size pores and their impregnation with thymol as a natural bioactive ...
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 ...
Influence of pollination mode on fruit set in plum (Prunus domestica)
(Int Soc Horticultural Science, Leuven 1, 2016)
Investigation of initial and final fruit set in the 'Pozna Plava' plum cultivar characterised by a low fruit set tendency was conducted in three pollination modes (cross-, self-and open pollination), over a two-year period ...
Total quality index of Agaricus bisporus mushrooms packed in modified atmosphere
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2017)
BACKGROUNDThe aim of this study was to develop a total quality index and examine the effects of modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) on the quality of Agaricus bisporus mushrooms stored for 22 days at 4 degrees C. Mushrooms ...
Antimicrobial activity and biocompatibility of Ag--(+) and Cu2+ -doped biphasic hydroxyapatite/alpha-tricalcium phosphate obtained from hydrothermally synthesized Ag+- and Cu2+ -doped hydroxyapatite
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2014)
Hydroxyapatite (HAp) powders doped with Ag+ or Cu2+ were synthesized by a hydrothermal method in order to obtain biomaterial with an antimicrobial effect. The synthesis was performed with two contents of dopant (Ag+ or ...
