Studies on adhesion characteristics and corrosion behaviour of vinyltriethoxysilane/epoxy coating protective system on aluminium
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2010)
The corrosion stability of vinyltriethoxysilane/epoxy coating protective system on aluminium is strongly related to the strength of bonds forming at the metal/organic coating interface. This article is a study of adhesion, ...
Photochemical Behavior of the Insecticide Methomyl Under Different Conditions
(Taylor & Francis Inc, Philadelphia, 2010)
This article describes the photolytic and photocatalytic removal of the insecticide methomyl at low concentration from different types of water, upon UV, visible or natural solar light radiation, in the presence of TiO2 ...
Surface characterisation of PLLA polymer in HAp/PLLA biocomposite material by means of nanoindentation and artificial neural networks
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2010)
In this paper, the mechanical properties of polymer matrix phase (modulus of elasticity, yield stress and work hardening rate) have been determined using combined methods such as nanoindentation, finite element modelling ...
A Kinetic Study of Candida rugosa Lipase-Catalyzed Synthesis of 4,6-Dimethyl-3-cyano-2-pyridone
(Sociedade Brasileira de Química, 2010)
The synthesis of 4,6-dimethyl-3-cyano-2-pyridone was studied in a reaction catalyzed with Candida rugosa lipase. A response surface methodology (RSM) was applied for the optimization of the experimental conditions. The ...
Effects of Filler Content on Mechanical Properties of Macroporous Composites
(Vsp Bv, Leiden, 2010)
The mechanical properties of hydroxyapatite related macroporous biocomposites (MPBs) are influenced by a number of factors, such as the pore size, the filler content and the properties of the matrix and the inclusion. ...
Evaluating the microbial diversity of an in vitro model of the human large intestine by phylogenetic microarray analysis
(Microbiology Soc, London, 2010)
A high-density phylogenetic microarray targeting small subunit rRNA (SSU rRNA) sequences of over 1000 microbial phylotypes of the human gastrointestinal tract, the HITChip, was used to assess the impact of faecal inoculum ...
Synthesis, characterization and antimicrobial activity of copper and zinc-doped hydroxyapatite nanopowders
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2010)
Antimicrobial materials based on hydroxyapatite are potentially attractive in a wide variety of medical applications. The synthesis of copper and zinc-doped hydroxyapatite was done by neutralization method. This method ...
Mathematical Model of Gentamicin Sulfate Release from a Bioactive Textile Material as a Transdermal System Under In Vitro Conditions
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, Hoboken, 2010)
A mathematical model was developed to estimate the release of gentamicin sulfate from a bioactive textile material as a transdermal system for wound dressing. The gentamicin sulfate released from the antibiotic/chitosan ...
Comparative analysis of fecal DNA extraction methods with phylogenetic microarray: Effective recovery of bacterial and archaeal DNA using mechanical cell lysis
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2010)
Several different protocols are used for fecal DNA extraction, which is an integral step in all phylogenetic and metagenomic approaches to characterize the highly diverse intestinal ecosystem. We compared four widely used ...
Rearrangement of erythrocyte band 3 molecules and reversible formation of osmotic holes under hypotonic conditions
(Springer, New York, 2010)
The complex phenomenon of rearrangement of band 3 molecules after erythrocyte swelling under hypotonic condition is considered. The rearrangement includes the increase of the mobile fraction and clustering of band 3. The ...
