Biodegradation of the aromatic fraction from petroleum diesel fuel by Oerskovia sp. followed by comprehensive GC x GC-TOF MS
(Elsevier, 2019)
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from petroleum and fossil fuels are one of the most dominant pollutants in the environment. Since aromatic fraction from petroleum diesel fuel is mainly composed of PAHs, it is ...
Production of levan by Bacillus licheniformis NS032 in sugar beet molasses-based medium
(Elsevier, 2019)
The production of levan by Bacillus licheniformis NS032 in a medium based on sugar beet molasses was studied. High polysaccharide yields were produced by using diluted molasses (100-140 g/L of total sugars) with the addition ...
Structural and electrochemical properties of the Li2FeP2O7/C composite prepared using soluble methylcellulose
(Elsevier, 2019)
A new method involving the homogeneous dispersion of precursor compounds inside a methylcellulose matrix is used for the synthesis of a composite powder of Li 2 FeP 2 O 7 and carbon. The properties of carbon-containing and ...
The structural, electrical and optical properties of spark plasma sintered BaSn1-xSbxO3 ceramics
(Elsevier, 2020)
Antimony doped barium-stannate dense ceramic materials were synthesized using spark plasma sintering technique out of mechanically activated precursor powders. The influence of various Sb concentrations (x =0.00 – 0.10) ...
Carbohydrate – Protein aromatic ring interactions beyond CH/π interactions: A Protein Data Bank survey and quantum chemical calculations
(Elsevier, 2020)
The geometries of the contacts between monosaccharides and aromatic rings of amino acids found in X-ray crystallography structures, in the Protein Data Bank (PDB), were analyzed, while the energies of the interactions were ...
Characterisation of the binding of dihydro-alpha-lipoic acid to fibrinogen and the effects on fibrinogen oxidation and fibrin formation
(Elsevier, 2020)
A reduced form of the alpha-lipoic acid, dihydro-alpha-lipoic acid (DHLA) is a potent, naturally occurring antioxidant which can be consumed as food constituent or as supplement at doses up to 600 mg/day. DHLA has inhibitory ...
Absorption and fluorescence spectral properties of azo dyes based on 3-amido-6-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-pyridone: Solvent and substituent effects
(Elsevier, 2020)
A series of nine 5-(4-substituted phenylazo)-3-amido-6-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-pyridones were synthesized and characterized by FT–IR, 1H and 13C NMR, UV–Vis, and PL spectroscopy. Photophysical properties of the dyes were examined ...
Aluminum-based self-powered hyper-fast miniaturized sensor for breath humidity detection
(Elsevier, 2020)
An aluminum-based, self-powered, miniaturized sensor for breath humidity detection is presented. The sensor is designed as an interdigitated capacitor made out of sputtered aluminum 1 % silicon (Al 1 %Si) thin film, 700 ...
Gamma irradiation of graphene quantum dots with ethylenediamine: Antioxidant for ion sensing
(Elsevier, 2020)
Due to the low consumption of chemicals, the absence of toxic residual side products, the procedure simplicity and time-saving aspects, gamma irradiation offers advantages over the classical chemical protocols. We successfully ...
Co-catalytic effect of WS2 on the copper slag mediated peroxodisulfate activation for the simultaneous elimination of typical flotation reagent benzotriazole and Cr(VI)
(Elsevier, 2023)
In this study, efficient simultaneous elimination of typical mine pollutants benzotriazole (BTA) and Cr(VI) was achieved by using a copper slag (CS) activated peroxodisulfate (PDS) Fenton system, with WS2 as a co-catalyst. ...
