Functionalization of polypropylene, polyamide and cellulose acetate materials with pyrethrum extract as a natural repellent in supercritical carbon dioxide
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
This study discusses the possibility of supercritical solvent impregnation of polypropylene and polyamide fabrics as well as cellulose acetate in the form of beads and films with pyrethrum extract in order to fabricate ...
Tailoring the physico-chemical and antimicrobial properties of agar-based films by in situ formation of Cu-mineral phase
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2019)
New agar-based composite films with increasing Cu-carbonate and Cu-phosphate mineral phase content were prepared by in situ mineralization and solvent casting method. SEM and optical analysis revealed that Cu-carbonate ...
The innovative combined microwave-assisted and photo-polymerization technique for synthesis of the novel degradable hydroxyethyl (meth)acrylate/gelatin based scaffolds
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
The discovery of novel biodegradable biomaterials able to support and control cellular activity as well as development of an enhanced and efficient method for their fabrication, are of paramount importance in the field of ...
Cefazolin-loaded polycaprolactone fibers produced via different electrospinning methods: Characterization, drug release and antibacterial effect
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2018)
Antibiotic containing polycaprolactone (PCL) fibers were produced by using three electrospinning methods: blend, emulsion and co-axial electrospinning (labeled as S1, S2 and S3, respectively). The profiles of drug release ...
Electrochemical Synthesis and Characterization of Silver Doped Poly(vinyl alcohol)/Chitosan Hydrogels
(Natl Assoc Corrosion Eng, Houston, 2017)
In this paper, novel silver-doped poly(vinyl alcohol)/chitosan/graphene (Ag/PVA/CHI/Gr) nanocomposites were produced by in situ electrochemical synthesis of silver nanoparticles in the polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan/graphene ...
Functionality of Embryo Sacs in Pear Cultivars 'Ingeborg' and 'Celina' as Related to Fruit Set under Nordic Climate
(Plants-Basel, 2020)
Since the European pear (Pyrus communis L.) is a self-incompatible fruit species, synchrony and compatibility between female parts of the mother plant and male gametes from the pollen donor must be fulfilled. Besides ...
Synthesis and characterization of fully bio-based unsaturated polyester resins
(Springer, New York, 2018)
The sustainable tomorrow for future generations lies with the present industrial development toward the proper utilization of various bio-based products. For a transition to a higher level of sustainability, it is necessary ...
Broad Spectrum of Antimicrobial Activity of Cotton Fabric Modified with Oxalic Acid and CuO/Cu2O Nanoparticles
(Korean Fiber Soc, Seoul, 2019)
This study discusses the possibility of fabrication of textile nanocomposites with antimicrobial activity against antibiotics-resistant bacterial strains and yeast. Modification of cotton fabric with oxalic acid solutions ...
Wastes from bioethanol and beer productions as substrates for L(+) lactic acid production - A comparative
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Waste substrates from bioethanol and beer productions are cheap, abundant and renewable substrates for biorefinery production of lactic acid (LA) and variability in their chemical composition presents a challenge in their ...
Visible light-harvesting of TiO2 nanotubes array by pulsed laser deposited CdS
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2014)
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanotubes arrays, obtained by anodization technique and annealing, were decorated with CdS using pulsed laser deposition method. Their structural, morphological and chemical characterization was ...
