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, ...
Multi-level finite element analysis for progressive damage behavior of HA/PEEK composite porous structure
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
A three-dimensional multi-level finite element (FE) modeling approach has been developed to simulate mechanical response and progressive damage behavior of hydroxyapatite/polyetheretherketone (HA/PEEK) porous structures ...
Quantitative evaluation of sulfur-polymer matrix composite quality
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
In order to predict service life of the sulfur polymer composite, the samples were subjected to the induced destruction using 10% hydrochloric acid solution. Control specimens were prepared using Portland cement binder. ...
Effects of the concentrated NH4NO3 solution on mechanical properties and structure of the fly ash based geopolymers
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
The geopolymers based on fly ash were exposed to the concentrated (6 M) NH4NO3 solution for 540 days. The highest compressive strength decrease occurred in the initial 28 days testing period. Study of the effects of the ...
SBA-15 templated mesoporous carbons for 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid removal
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2013)
The ordered mesoporous silica SBA-15 was synthesized and used as a template for obtaining mesoporous carbon replicas. Adsorptive removal of pesticide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) from aqueous solutions onto two ...
Design of biocompatible immobilized Candida rugosa lipase with potential application in food industry
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2016)
BACKGROUNDBiocatalysts are a promising alternative for the production of natural flavor compounds. Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) is a particularly important biocatalyst owing to its remarkable efficiency in both hydrolysis ...
Novel azo pyridone dyes based on dihydropyrimidinone skeleton: Synthesis, DFT study and anticancer activity
(Dyes and Pigments, 2021)
Seven novel azo dyes with 2-pyridone and dihydropyrimidinone moieties have been synthesized and thoroughly characterized. The azo-hydrazone tautomerism has been investigated by experimental and theoretical approaches. The ...
Copper-alginate microbeads - potential components in cartilage tissue engineering systems
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2014)
Optimization of the process of Cu(II) sorption by mechanically treated Prunus persica L. - Contribution to sustainability in food processing industry
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
This paper presents an eco-friendly approach for minimizing heavy metal pollution, offering food waste valorization and energy source at the same time. It focuses on Cu(II) sorption by low cost sorbent developed by mechanical ...
Optimization of extraction of stinging nettle leaf phenolic compounds using response surface methodology
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2015)
A full three level factorial design was implemented for optimization of extraction parameters in order to maximize total phenolic (TP) yield from stinging nettle leaf. Factors considered were percentage of methanol in ...
