Characterization of potential probiotic strain, L. reuteri B2, and its microencapsulation using alginate-based biopolymers
(International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2021)
In this study, Lactobacillus reuteri B2 was isolated from the feces of C57BL/6 mice and assessed on probiotic activity. L. reuteri B2 was identified by 16S rDNA sequencing, which the cell viability in acidic conditions at ...
Mechanochemically assisted solid-state and citric acid complex syntheses of Cu-doped sodium cobaltite ceramicsh
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2015)
In the last decade, the sodium cobaltite ceramic became a promising candidate for potential thermoelectric applications, because of its large thermopower and low resistivity. In this work, polycrystalline samples of ...
Effect of plasma treatment on chemical composition, structure and sorption properties of lignocellulosic hemp fibers (Cannabis sativa L.)
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Hemp fibers with different amount of hemicelluloses and lignin were subjected to atmospheric pressure dielectric barrier discharge under different conditions (40 W and 80 W power of discharge, const. time 120 s) in order ...
Design and thermo-economic evaluation of an integrated concentrated solar power-Desalination tri-generation system
(Energy Conversion and Management, 2021)
In this work, a concentrated solar power (CSP) tri-generation system that is capable of the simultaneous production of steam, power and freshwater is introduced. The abundantly available direct normal irradiance can ...
Three-stage integration system with solid oxide fuel cell, alkali metal thermal electric converter and organic Rankine cycle for synergistic power generation
(Elsevier Ltd., 2023)
During operation, solid oxide fuel cell releases quite a great part of hydrogen energy into waste heat, leading to energy waste and even functional component degradation. In this study, solid oxide fuel cell, alkali metal ...
Unsupervised classification and multi-criteria decision analysis as chemometric tools for the assessment of sediment quality: A case study of the Danube and Sava River
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2016)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality of freshwater sediments by means of three chemometric techniques for multi-criteria analysis and decision: self-organizing network (SON), self-organizing map (SOM) and ...
Hybrid acrylic nanocomposites with excellent transparency and hardness/toughness balance
(Elsevier B.V., 2020)
The composite nanofibers were used as reinforcement in acrylic polymer for the overall enhancement of thermo-mechanical properties, adhesion between fibers and matrix, and fracture toughness of the final nanocomposite since ...
Core–shell carbon fiber@Co1.5Mn1.5O4 mesoporous spinel electrode for high performance symmetrical supercapacitors
(Elsevier B.V., 2020)
We report a mesoporous composite system consisting of carbon fiber cores surrounded with Co1.5Mn1.5O4 spinel nanocrystal shells, synthesized by a simple two-step process involving single-nozzle co-electrospinning and ...
Cornstarch aerogels with thymol, citronellol, carvacrol, and eugenol prepared by supercritical CO2- assisted techniques for potential biomedical applications
(Elsevier Ltd., 05-2024)
This study focuses on the development of bioactive materials using environmentally friendly techniques, renewable, biocompatible, and biodegradable polysaccharide, as well as natural bioactive compounds (NBCs) found in ...
Adsorption of arsenate on iron(III) oxide coated ethylenediamine functionalized multiwall carbon nanotubes
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2012)
New criteria in assessing the quality of drinking water reduced the maximum permissible concentration of arsenic from 50 mu g L-1 to 10 mu g L-1 and set a requirement for the development of new technologies for arsenic ...
