Synthesis, characterization, and antimicrobial activity of poly(GMA-co-EGDMA) polymer decorated with silver nanoparticles
(Springer, New York, 2014)
Composite consisting of silver nanoparticles coordinated to poly(GMA-co-EGDMA) macroporous copolymer was prepared by attachment of amino group to the poly(GMA-co-EGDMA) in the reaction with ethylene diamine, and consequent ...
Copper nanoparticles with high antimicrobial activity
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2014)
Copper (Cu) hydrosol containing small nanoparticles (NPs) (similar to 5 nm) with narrow size distribution were used to investigate antimicrobial activity toward representative microorganisms of public concern (Escherichia ...
Assessment of the impact of geographical factors on the spatial distribution of heavy metals in soils around the steel production facility in Smederevo (Serbia)
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
The concentration of heavy metals (Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn) in surface soils in the area surrounding the steel production facility in Serbia was determined to assess the contribution of emissions to pollution. ...
Determination of thermodynamic interactions of polylactide and biphasic calcium phosphate/polylactidecomposite by inverse gas chromatography at infinite dilution
(Springer, New York, 2014)
Inverse gas chromatography at infinite dilution was applied to determine the thermodynamic interactions of poly(l-lactide) (PLLA) and the composite of biphasic calcium phosphate and PLLA (BCP/PLLA). The specific retention ...
Solid circulation rate and particle collisions in quasi two-dimensional water fluidized beds of spherical particles
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2014)
The equations for the overall particle circulation rate and the frequency of particle-particle collisions in the quasi two-dimenional water-fluidized bed were proposed. The equations were based on the experimental results ...
Microwave as a pre-treatment of triticale for bioethanol fermentation and utilization of the stillage for lactic acid fermentation
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2014)
The aims of this research were to investigate the potential for improvement of bioethanol fermentation by microwave pre-treatment of triticale, as well as the possibility of using triticale stillage (a by-product of ...
Lead immobilization by geopolymers based on mechanically activated fly ash
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
In this paper, the effectiveness of geopolymers based on initial and mechanically activated fly ash in immobilization of lead was investigated. Fly ash (FA) was firstly mechanically and then alkali activated at room ...
Improvement of epoxy resin properties by incorporation of TiO2 nanoparticles surface modified with gallic acid esters
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
Epoxy resin/titanium dioxide (epoxy/TiO2) nanocomposites were obtained by incorporation of TiO2 nanoparticles surface modified with gallic acid esters in epoxy resin. TiO2 nanoparticles were obtained by acid catalyzed ...
Microwave-assisted extraction for the recovery of antioxidants from waste Equisetum arvense
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2014)
Microwave-assisted extraction was optimised by the response surface methodology in order to enhance the extraction of polyphenols from Equisetum arvense (horsetail). Under the optimal conditions the total polyphenol content ...
Silver film on nanocrystalline TiO2 support: Photocatalytic and antimicrobial ability
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
Nanocrystalline TiO2 films were prepared on glass slides by the dip coating technique using colloidal solutions consisting of 4.5 nm particles as a precursor. Photoirradiation of nanocrystalline TiO2 film modified with ...
