Valorization of walnut shell ash as a catalyst for biodiesel production
(Elsevier, 2020)
The catalytic activity of the walnut shell ash was investigated in the biodiesel production by the sunflower oil methanolysis. The catalyst was characterized by the TG-DTA, XRD, Hg porosimetry, N2 physisorption, SEM, and ...
Antitumor activity of organoruthenium complexes with chelate aromatic ligands, derived from 1,10-phenantroline: Synthesis and biological activity
(Elsevier, 2020)
The monocationic chloro complexes containing chelating N∩N ligands: [(η6-p-cymene)Ru(L1–4)Cl]+ (1–4), where L1 = 4-methyl-1,10-phenantroline, L2 = dipyrido[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]phenazine, L3 = 11-chloro-dipyrido[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]phenazine, ...

A Strategy to Revalue a Wood Waste for Simultaneous Cadmium Removal and Wastewater Disinfection
(Hindawi Limited, 2021)
In this investigation, the possibility of wood waste (hardwoods such as oaks' and alternatives' staves from Balkan cooperage) revalorization for simultaneous cadmium removal and wastewater disinfection was examined. All ...
Nutraceutical phycocyanobilin binding to catalase protects the pigment from oxidation without affecting catalytic activity
(Elsevier, 2021)
Phycocyanobilin is a dark blue linear tetrapyrrole chromophore covalently attached to protein subunits of phycobiliproteins present in the light-harvesting complexes of the cyanobacteria Arthrospira platensis (Spirulina ...
Chemical modification of glycoproteins’ carbohydrate moiety as a general strategy for the synthesis of efficient biocatalysts by biomimetic mineralization: The case of glucose oxidase
(MDPI, 2021)
Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) is widely used as a protective coating to en-capsulate proteins via biomimetic mineralization. The formation of nucleation centers and further biocomposite crystal growth is entirely ...

Optimization of reactive diluent for bio-based unsaturated polyester resin: A rheological and thermomechanical study
(MDPI, 2021)
Nowadays, unsaturated polyester resins (UPR) are mainly obtained from non-renewable resources. The ever-increasing regulations and the continuous demand for more sustainability have led to extensive research towards more ...
Development of an efficient biocatalytic system based on bacterial laccase for the oxidation of selected 1,4-dihydropyridines
(Elsevier, 2020)
Biocatalytic oxidations mediated by laccases are gaining importance due to their versatility and beneficial environmental effects. In this study, the oxidation of 1,4-dihydropyridines has been performed using three different ...
Synthesis, chemical characterization, PARP inhibition, DNA binding and cellular uptake of novel ruthenium(II)-arene complexes bearing benzamide derivatives in human breast cancer cells
(Elsevier, 2020)
Inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) showed remarkable clinical efficacy in BRCA-mutated tumors. Based on the rational drug design, derivatives of PARP inhibitor 3-aminobenzamide (3-AB), 2-amino-4-methylbenzamide ...
