Chitin and chitosan from microorganisms
(Chitin, Chitosan, Oligosaccharides and Their Derivatives: Biological Activities and Applications, 2010)
Today, a major concern about the use of crustacean chitin/chitosan in the pharmaceutical and biomedical field is still the molecular variability of a natural product, which results in a wide unpredictable range of ...
Antioxidants from lamiaceae herbs
(Food Quality: Control, Analysis and Consumer Concerns, 2011)
One of the important trends in the food industry today is the demand for natural antioxidants from plant material. Synthetic antioxidants such as butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), and butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) now being ...
Solid acids as catalysts for biodiesel synthesis
(Heterogeneous Catalysts: Design, Applications and Research Insights, 2016)
Increased environmental concern and awareness of limited reserves of fossil fuels gave a great importance to alternative and renewable energy sources over the past couple decades. An excellent substitute for mineral diesel ...
Approaches to mathematical modeling of tissue engineering systems
(Cell and Tissue Engineering, 2012)
Tissue engineering (TE) is one of the new strategies aiming to address the problem of tissue failure by in vitro cultivation of functional tissue equivalents (please see the Chapter 1). Ideally, engineered tissues can serve ...
Influence of chemical stress on sulfur-polymer composite structure
(New Developments in Polymer Composites Research, 2013)
Sulfur- polymer composites are high performance thermoplastic materials made of mineral aggregate, filler, and modified sulfur binder, instead of cement and water as in ordinary Portland cement- based composites at ...
Supercritical extraction of phloroglucinols from St. John's wort (Hypericum Perforatum L.) - Process optimization, mathematical modeling and antimicrobial activity
(Phytochemicals: Occurrence in Nature, Health Effects and Antioxidant Properties, 2013)
St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum L.) has been widely used as an anti-inflammatory and healing agent in traditional medicine. Some para-pharmaceutical products, prepared from the extract of St. John's Wort, are frequently ...
The re-use potential of espresso spent coffee grounds: Optimization of microwave-assisted extraction of polyphenols by use of response surface methodology and their effects on platelet function - pilot study
(Coffee: Production, Consumption and Health Benefits, 2016)
A huge amount of espresso spent coffee grounds (SCG) are obtained as a waste product during the preparation of coffee beverages (cialdes, K-cups and in metallic filters). Although considered a waste and an ecological threat, ...
Isolation, purification and encapsulation techniques for bioactive compounds from agricultural and food production waste
(Utilisation of Bioactive Compounds from Agricultural and Food Production Waste, 2017)
Food related materials that are discharged worldwide are residues of high organic load generated through different stages of food’s life cycle, from agricultural production up to postharvest handling, processing, retail ...
Advances in mathematical modeling of supercritical extraction processes
(Mathematical Research Summaries, 2017)
A new trend in mathematical modeling of supercritical extraction process from plant material is presented. The most of the previously published models considered properties of the fixed bed of plant material during the ...
Antimicrobial Bioactive Band-Aids with Prolonged and Controlled Action
(Medical and Healthcare Textiles, 2010)
The paper discusses the antimicrobial bioactive band-aids, a modem means of wound management and healing, which are effective against a wide spectrum of microorganisms. Ion-exchange fibres and nonwoven textile materials ...
