Modeling of release kinetics of silver nanoparticles from novel alginate nanocomposites aimed for biomedical applications
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2012)
Antimicrobial activity of metal oxide nanoparticles supported onto natural clinoptilolite
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2012)
The antimicrobial activity of Cu2O, ZnO and NiO nanoparticles supported onto natural clinoptilolite was investigated in the secondary effluent under dark conditions. After 24 h of contact the Cu2O and ZnO nanoparticles ...
Development of advanced floating poly(lactic acid)-based materials for colored wastewater treatment
(Journal of Supercritical Fluids, 2021)
The release of industrial wastewater into the ecosystem prompted our research on the development of an efficient and biodegradable material that can be used for wastewater treatment. We optimized preparation of porous ...
Versatile use of biomimetic bioreactors for functional evaluation of nanocomposite alginate based hydrogels
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2012)
Synthesis and characterization of silver/poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) hydrogel nanocomposite obtained by in situ radiolytic method
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2011)
This work describes radiolytic synthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) within the poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) (PVP) hydrogel. The hydrogel matrix was obtained by gamma irradiation-induced cross-linking, while the in ...
Oxidized Hemp Fibers with Simultaneously Increased Capillarity and Reduced Moisture Sorption as Suitable Textile Material for Advanced Application in Sportswear
(Fibers and Polymers, 2021)
Applications of hemp fibers, as a promising natural material in the textile field, mostly require improved fiber properties. In this paper, the oxidation of hemp fibers with potassium permanganate was applied to reduce the ...
Antimicrobial activity and biocompatibility of Ag--(+) and Cu2+ -doped biphasic hydroxyapatite/alpha-tricalcium phosphate obtained from hydrothermally synthesized Ag+- and Cu2+ -doped hydroxyapatite
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2014)
Hydroxyapatite (HAp) powders doped with Ag+ or Cu2+ were synthesized by a hydrothermal method in order to obtain biomaterial with an antimicrobial effect. The synthesis was performed with two contents of dopant (Ag+ or ...
Visible light-harvesting of TiO2 nanotubes array by pulsed laser deposited CdS
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2014)
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanotubes arrays, obtained by anodization technique and annealing, were decorated with CdS using pulsed laser deposition method. Their structural, morphological and chemical characterization was ...
Immobilization of lipase on epoxy-activated Purolite((R)) A109 and its post-immobilization stabilization
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
In this study, Purolite (R) A109, polystyrenic macroporous resin, was used as immobilization support due to its good mechanical properties and high particle diameter (400 mu m), which enables efficient application in enzyme ...
The dependence of the photocatalytic activity of TiO2/carbon nanotubes nanocomposites on the modification of the carbon nanotubes
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
Nanostructural TiO2/modified multi-wall carbon nanotubes photocatalysts were prepared by hydrolysis of Ti(iso-OC3H7)(4) providing chemical bonding of anatase TiO2 nanoparticles onto oxidized- or amino-functionalized ...
