Ionizing radiation and its applications are widely spread throughout life. Similar to many other things, both the positive and negative aspects of ionizing radiation should always be kept in mind. For example, a proper radiation dose can be delivered...
The skin of yellowfin tuna is one of the fishery industry solid residues with the greatest potential to add extra value to its circular economy that remains yet unexploited. Particularly, the high collagen content of fish skin allows generating gelat...
Soft nanomaterials like aerogels are subject to thermal fluctuations, so that their structure randomly fluctuates with time. Neutron elastic and inelastic scattering experiments provide unique structural and dynamic information on such systems with n...
Carvedilol (CRV) is a non-selective third generation beta-blocker used to treat hypertension, congestive heart failure and angina pectoris. Oral administration of CRV showed poor bioavailability (25%), which might be ascribed to its extensive first-p...
Surfactants are ubiquitous materials that are used in diverse formulations of various products. For instance, they improve the formulation of gel by improving its wetting and rheological properties. Here, we describe the effects of anionic surfactant...
The study of geopolymers has become an interesting concern for many scientists, especially in the infrastructure sector, due to having inherently environmentally friendly properties and fewer energy requirements in production processes. Geopolymer at...
(1) Background: In recent years, several studies have described various and heterogenous methods to sensitize nanoparticles (NPs) to pH changes; therefore, in this current scoping review, we aimed to map current protocols for pH functionalization of...
Vancomycin hydrochloride (HCl) is a glycopeptide antibiotic used to treat serious or life-threatening infections, and it reduces plaque scores and gingivitis in periodontal patients. In this study, vancomycin HCl was incorporated into rosin in situ f...
The rheology, i.e., the flow and deformation properties, of hydrogels is generally a very important consideration for their functionality. However, the accurate characterization of their rheological material functions is handicapped by their ubiquito...
In this study, the influence of levan on the phase behavior and the thermally induced gelation of the mixed β-lactoglobulin—levan gels as a function of polymer content, molecular weight and ionic strength was characterized. For this purpos...
