Evaluation of alginate hydrogels under in vivo-like bioreactor conditions for cartilage tissue engineering
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2010)
Alginate hydrogels in forms of discs and packed beds of microbeads (similar to 800 mu m) were tested in a novel bioreactor at 10% strain using two regimes: at a loading rate of 337.5 mu m/s and at sequential increments of ...
Iron-Modified Sepiolite for Ni2+ Sorption from Aqueous Solution: An Equilibrium, Kinetic, and Thermodynamic Study
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2010)
Sepiolite was used for the synthesis of the sepiolite-iron oxide system to obtain a sorbent suitable for the removal of Ni2+ from aqueous solution. The modified material, Fe-sepiolite, was characterized by X-ray diffraction ...
Synthesis of submicron carbon spheres by the ultrasonic spray pyrolysis method
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2010)
Submicron carbon spherical particles were obtained by polycondensation of resorcinol and formaldehyde in a solution and subsequent ultrasonic spray pyrolysis of the prepared sol. Microscopic characterization indicates the ...
New Hybrid Properties of TiO2 Nanoparticles Surface Modified With Catecholate Type Ligands
(Springer, New York, 2010)
Surface modification of nanocrystalline TiO2 particles (45 ) with bidentate benzene derivatives (catechol, pyrogallol, and gallic acid) was found to alter optical properties of nanoparticles. The formation of the inner-sphere ...
Evaluation of periodic operation of a trickle-bed reactor based on empirical modeling
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2010)
In this paper, we propose a new procedure for fast evaluation of the potential of periodic operations in trickle-bed reactors, based on empirical modeling. Step response experiments, with different input amplitudes, were ...
Some Properties of Antimicrobial Coated Knitted Textile Material Evaluation
(Sage Publications Ltd, London, 2010)
The aim of this work was to investigate the antimicrobial activity of knitted fabric intended for medical purposes as well as the influence of antimicrobial treatment on the compression work, volume resistivity, water ...
Optimization of photoluminescence of Y2O3:Eu and Gd2O3:Eu phosphors synthesized by thermolysis of 2,4-pentanedione complexes
(IOP Publishing Ltd, Bristol, 2010)
Spherical shaped nanoparticles of series Y2-xEuxO3 (x = 0.06, 0.10, 0.20, and 2) and Gd2-xEuxO3 (x = 0.06, 0.10) were prepared by thermolysis of 2,4-pentanedione complexes of Y, Gd, and Eu. The bixbyite phase of Gd2-xEuxO3 ...
Microwave sintering of fine grained HAP and HAP/TCP bioceramics
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2010)
The effect of microwave sintering conditions on the microstructure, phase composition and mechanical properties of materials based on hydroxyapatite (HAP) and tricalcium phosphate (TCP) was investigated. Fine grained ...
The influence of tin and silver as microstructure modifiers on the corrosion rate of Pb-Ca alloys in sulfuric acid solutions
(Wiley-VCH Verlag Gmbh, Weinheim, 2010)
The effect of microstructure modifiers, Sn and Ag, on the corrosion rate of commercial Pb-Ca alloy in H(2)SO(4) electrolyte was investigated by the potentiodynamic polarization and by the weight loss corrosion rate measurement ...
A Validated Model of GAG Deposition, Cell Distribution, and Growth of Tissue Engineered Cartilage Cultured in a Rotating Bioreactor
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, Hoboken, 2010)
In this work a new phenomenological model of growth of cartilage tissue cultured in a rotating bioreactor is developed. It represents an advancement of a previously derived model of deposition of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) ...
