Achieving high antimicrobial activity: Composite alginate hydrogel beads releasing activated charcoal with an immobilized active agent
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
New composites based on Ca-alginate hydrogels were produced that release activated charcoal (AC) particles with adsorbed povidone iodine (PVP-I) as a model antimicrobial substance in a physiological-like environment. ...
Novel modified nanocellulose applicable as reinforcement in high-performance nanocomposites
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
The influence of modification and vacuum/supercritical CO2 (scCO(2)) drying methods on the surface properties, morphology and thermal stability of cellulose nanocrystals (NC) was presented in this study. Introduction of ...
Response surface methodology for optimisation of edible coatings based on dextran from Leuconostoc mesenteroides T3
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
The aim of this study was to develop dextran-based edible films plasticized by sorbitol. In order to optimise the film-forming formulation, response surface methodology was used. The influence of dextran and sorbitol ...
Antibacterial ability of immobilized silver nanoparticles in agar-agar films co-doped with magnesium ions
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2019)
The antibacterial ability of in situ prepared nanometer-sized silver particles, immobilized in agar-agar films, was studied as a function of the concentration of co-dopant, magnesium ions. Content of inorganic components ...
Sorption properties of TEMPO-oxidized natural and man-made cellulose fibers
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2009)
Cotton and lyocell fibers were oxidized with sodium hypochlorite and catalytic amount of sodium bromide and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxy radical (TEMPO), under various conditions. Water-insoluble fractions, collected ...
Sodium periodate oxidized cotton yarn as carrier for immobilization of trypsin
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2010)
Cotton yarn was first oxidized by sodium periodate to introduce aldehyde groups which were able to react with amino groups of trypsin to form Schiff's base, and result in cotton yarn immobilized trypsin. The effect of ...
A comprehensive approach to in vitro functional evaluation of Ag/alginate nanocomposite hydrogels
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
In this work, we present a comprehensive approach to evaluation of alginate microbeads with included silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) at the concentration range of 0.3-5 mM for potential biomedical use by combining cytotoxicity, ...
ZnO-modified cellulose fiber sheets for antibody immobilization
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
Cellulose fiber sheets impregnated with saccharide capped-ZnO nanoparticles were used as bioactive materials for antibody immobilization. First, ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized in the presence of glucose (monosaccharide), ...
Application of cellulose acetate for controlled release of thymol
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Cellulose acetate (CA) was investigated as a carrier towards development of material with controlled release of thymol as a natural substance with strong antibacterial properties using high pressure techniques. Effect of ...
Production of bioethanol from pre-treated cotton fabrics and waste cotton materials
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
This study highlights the potential of cotton fabric as a promising feedstock for the production of bioethanol as renewable biofuel. The effect of corona pre-treatment of non-mercerized and mercerized cotton fabrics on ...
