Antioxidants from lamiaceae herbs
(Food Quality: Control, Analysis and Consumer Concerns, 2011)
One of the important trends in the food industry today is the demand for natural antioxidants from plant material. Synthetic antioxidants such as butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), and butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) now being ...
Smart hydrogels for pharmaceutical applications
(Novel Approaches for Drug Delivery, 2016)
The latest development in the field of smart hydrogels application as drugs carriers is shown in this chapter. Hydrogels are three-dimensional polymer network consisting of at least one hydrophilic monomer. They are insoluble ...
Approaches to mathematical modeling of tissue engineering systems
(Cell and Tissue Engineering, 2012)
Tissue engineering (TE) is one of the new strategies aiming to address the problem of tissue failure by in vitro cultivation of functional tissue equivalents (please see the Chapter 1). Ideally, engineered tissues can serve ...
Influence of chemical stress on sulfur-polymer composite structure
(New Developments in Polymer Composites Research, 2013)
Sulfur- polymer composites are high performance thermoplastic materials made of mineral aggregate, filler, and modified sulfur binder, instead of cement and water as in ordinary Portland cement- based composites at ...
Supercritical extraction of phloroglucinols from St. John's wort (Hypericum Perforatum L.) - Process optimization, mathematical modeling and antimicrobial activity
(Phytochemicals: Occurrence in Nature, Health Effects and Antioxidant Properties, 2013)
St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum L.) has been widely used as an anti-inflammatory and healing agent in traditional medicine. Some para-pharmaceutical products, prepared from the extract of St. John's Wort, are frequently ...
The impact of air pollution from the mining-metallurgical complex on the content of total sulfur in plant material and soil
(Air Quality: Environmental Indicators, Monitoring and Health Implications, 2013)
The area of Bor and the surroundings (Eastern Serbia) have beenknown for exploitation and processing of sulfide copper ores for morethan a hundred years. Long-term ore exploitation in the examined areahas made a great ...
Rheological behavior of hyperbranched polymers
(Rheology: Theory, Properties and Practical Applications, 2013)
Hyperbranched polymers represent intriguing class of dendritic polymers, which show remarkable, unique and different chemical and physical properties compared to their linear counterparts, as a result of their complex, ...
Contribution to the Recent Advances in Electrochemical Analysis of Pharmaceuticals
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2016)
Electrochemistry is rapidly growing area with a number of possible applications in the pharmaceutical analysis. Modern electrochemical methods are selective, sensitive, rapid, and provide easy techniques applicable to ...
Biodiesel production: The problems in software design at supercritical and subcritical conditions
(Supercritical Fluids, 2011)
A large interest in research as well as dramatically increased number of scientific papers covering this topic evidently exists. This chapter covers the literature review of biodiesel production under specific conditions ...
Macroporous and non-porous amino-functionalized glycidyl methacrylate based copolymers for hexavalent chromium sorption
(Chromium: Environmental, Medical and Materials Studies, 2011)
Two porous samples and one non-porous sample of crosslinked poly(glycidyl methacrylate-co-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) [abbreviated PGME] were synthesized by suspension copolymerization and functionalized by ring-opening ...
