Easy, Flexible and Standardizable Anti-Nascent Biofilm Activity Assay to Assess Implant Materials
(MDPI, 2023)
Medical implants have improved the quality of life of many patients. However, surgical intervention may eventually lead to implant microbial contamination. The aims of this research were to develop an easy, robust, ...
Exposure Factors in Health Risk Assessment of Heavy Metal(loid)s in Soil and Sediment
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023)
Heavy metal(loid)s (HMs) play an important role in economic development since they are used in various branches of industry. However, all industrial activities emit HMs into the environment, where they are no longer useful ...
The Removal of Phosphate from Aqueous Solutions by Sepiolite/ZrO2 Composites: Adsorption Behavior and Mechanism
(MDPI, 2023)
The sepiolite/ZrO2 composites were prepared by sepiolite (Sep) modification with zirconium propoxide in toluene at room temperature for 24 h (Sep–ZrI) or 95 °C for 4 h (sample Sep–ZrII). The efficiency of the obtained ...
Microwave-induced synthesis of zinc-phthalocyanine with improved photosensitizing potential
(Materials Letters, 2023)
In this paper, an efficient and environmentally friendly approach to the microwave-assisted synthesis of zincphthalocyanine (ZnPc) was developed to compare the features and changes in morphology, phase, and opticalproperties ...
Mechanical properties of acrylate matrix composite reinforced with manganese-aluminum layered double hydroxide
(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2023)
Acrylate polymers are used in several applications such as dentistry, medicine, and industry. The modification of their properties using the reinforcement is of key importance for the possible applications. Layered double ...
Cerium lactate as green corrosion inhibitor of AA2024 alloy
(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2023)
This paper evaluated the inhibitory effect of Ce-chloride and Na-lactate mixture on the AA2024 aluminum alloy in 0.1 M NaCl solution. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was applied for testing the general corrosion ...
Eco‑friendly dyeing of polyamide and polyamide‑elastane knits with living bacterial cultures of two Streptomyces sp. strains
(Springer Science and Business Media, 2023)
Given the environmental burden of textile industry, especially of dyeing processes and the volume of synthetic dyes and surfactants, the intensive development of the greener approaches is under way. Herein, an environmen ...
Occurrence, Source Apportionment, and Health Risk Assessment of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Soil of Urban Parks in a Mid-Sized City
(Institute for Ionics, 2023)
Public parks and open playgrounds are the most important compartments of the urban environment due to their role in sustaining the well-being of city residents, primarily through relaxation and recreation. To determine the ...
Revalorization of Cotton and Cotton/Elastane Knitted Fabric Waste
(Korean Fiber Society, 2023)
The present paper demonstrates a simple way for revalorization of differently softened cotton and cotton/elastane knitted fabric waste collected from the textile industry. Such waste was used as an adsorbent for Congo Red ...
Possibility of Using Vitreous Enamel Waste in the Construction Industry as the Concept of Cleaner Production
(MDPI, 2023)
Waste vitreous enamels from the heating device production process were used for partial replacement of cement in the mortar and concrete production industry. This waste, due to the high content of heavy metals, is classified ...
