Calcium-Alginate-Inulin Microbeads as Carriers for Aqueous Carqueja Extract
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2016)
Carqueja (Pterospartum tridentatum) is an endemic species and various bioactive compounds have been identified in its aqueous extract. The aim of this study was to protect the natural antioxidants from the aqueous extract ...
Towards antimicrobial yet bioactive Cu-alginate hydrogels
(IOP Publishing Ltd, Bristol, 2016)
The simplest approach to enhance alginate hydrogel characteristics and functional properties is to replace the calcium in the process of alginate gelation with other metallic ions which are essential for living systems. ...
Comparative in vivo evaluation of novel formulations based on alginate and silver nanoparticles for wound treatments
(Sage Publications Ltd, London, 2018)
In the present study, possibilities for using novel nanocomposites based on alginate and silver nanoparticles for wound treatment were investigated in a second-degree thermal burn model in Wistar rats. Silver nanoparticles ...
Controlled Curcumin Release from Hydrogel Scaffold Platform Based on 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate/Gelatin/Alginate/Iron(III) Oxide
(Wiley-VCH Verlag Gmbh, Weinheim, 2020)
The strategy of combining polymers of natural and synthetic origin with inorganic components to use their unique synergistic effect for the development of the novel, sophisticated, and efficient 3D polymeric biomaterials, ...
Modification of PET and PA fabrics with alginate and copper oxides nanoparticles
(Composite Interfaces, 2021)
The aim of this study was to fabricate novel antimicrobial nanocomposite materials by in-situ syntheses of Cu-based nanoparticles on PET and PA fabrics. The synthesis comprised three steps: (i) modification of PET and PA ...
Prospect of Polysaccharide-Based Materials as Advanced Food Packaging
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
The use of polysaccharide-based materials presents an eco-friendly technological solution, by reducing dependence on fossil resources while reducing a product's carbon footprint, when compared to conventional plastic ...
