Application of Supercritical Solvent Impregnation for Production of Zeolite Modified Starch-Chitosan Polymers with Antibacterial Properties
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
In the present study, supercritical solvent impregnation (SSI) has been applied to incorporate thymol into bio-composite polymers as a potential active packaging material. Thymol, a natural component with a proven antimicrobial ...
Degradable 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate/Gelatin/Alginate Hydrogels Infused by Nanocolloidal Graphene Oxide as Promising Drug Delivery and Scaffolding Biomaterials
(Gels, 2022)
The design and evaluation of novel 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate/gelatin/alginate/graphene oxide hydrogels as innovative scaffolding biomaterials, which concurrently are the suitable drug delivery carrier, was proposed. The ...
Sponge-like europium oxide from hollow carbon sphere as a template for an anode material for Reactive Blue 52 electrochemical degradation
(Materials Chemistry and Physics, 2021)
The textile industry is one of the major pollutants of waterbodies with effluents high in biochemical and chemical oxygen demand values, high values of total dissolved solids, total suspended solids, and low dissolved ...
A detailed UV-Vis spectral investigation of six azo dyes derived from benzoic- and cinnamic acids: experimental and theoretical insight
(Comptes Rendus Chimie, 2021)
Six donor-pi-acceptor azo dyes, with altered donor- (p-hydroxyphenyl-and naphthalene-2ol) and carboxylic based acceptor groups, were subjected to detailed solvatochromic and tautomeric investigation in different environments ...
Evaluation of stability and functionality of BaCe1-xInxO3-delta electrolyte in a wider range of indium concentration
(Journal of Advanced Ceramics, 2022)
The properties of BaCe1-xInxO3-delta (x = 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25, 0.30, 0.35, and 0.40) as proton conducting electrolyte are examined. The dense electrolyte is formed after sintering at 1300 degrees C for 5 h in air. ...
The effect of incompletely condensed polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) on hybrid film adhesion
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) structure on the adhesion behaviour of composite films onto a metallic surface. The composite films consisted of ...
Spatial distribution, radiological risk assessment and positive matrix factorization of gamma-emitting radionuclides in the sediment of the Boka Kotorska Bay
(Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2021)
Surface sediment from the Boka Kotorska Bay (Adriatic Sea) was analyzed for the content of technogenic cesium (137Cs) and naturally occurring (40K, 226Ra, 232Th, 238U) radionuclides. The activity concentrations of the ...
Plant Extracts Rich in Polyphenols as Potent Modulators in the Growth of Probiotic and Pathogenic Intestinal Microorganisms
(Frontiers in Nutrition, 2021)
Medicinal plants and their extracts contain substantial quantities of polyphenols. As metabolically active plant metabolites, polyphenols are food components with a wide range of biological activities. Given their poor ...
Valorization of corn stover and molasses for enzyme synthesis, lignocellulosic hydrolysis and bioethanol production by Hymenobacter sp. CKS3
(Environmental Technology & Innovation, 2021)
During the last few decades, energy demand is increasing rapidly. Concerning this, the use of renewables - lignocellulose biomass, for bioethanol production, as an efficient alternative to replacing fossil fuels, is highly ...
Radiological and Structural Characterization of Raw and Alkali-Activated Wood Ash and Metakaolin Blends
(MDPI, 2022)
The aim of the presented research was to investigate the application possibility of wood ash and metakaolin to obtain alkali-activated materials as relatively new materials in the building industry. Thus, in order to assess ...
