Novel azo pyridone dyes based on dihydropyrimidinone skeleton: Synthesis, DFT study and anticancer activity
(Elsevier, 2021)
Seven novel azo dyes with 2-pyridone and dihydropyrimidinone moieties have been synthesized and thoroughly characterized. The azo-hydrazone tautomerism has been investigated by experimental and theoretical approaches. ...
Eliminating dissolution of platinum-based electrocatalysts at the atomic scale
(Nature Publishing Group, 2020)
A remaining challenge for deployment of proton-exchange membrane fuel cells is thelimited durability of Pt-nanoscale materials that operate at high voltages during thecathodic oxygen reduction reaction. In this work, ...
Analysis and experimental demonstration of forced periodic operation of an adiabatic stirred tank reactor: Simultaneous modulation of inlet concentration and total flow-rate
(Elsevier, 2021)
It is well known, that forced periodic operation possesses the potential for process improvements. Nevertheless, only a small number of applications is reported, due to complex realization, limited predictability and high ...
Optimization of microbial fuel cell operation using Danube River sediment
(Elsevier, 2020)
One of the main global focuses of mankind today is the required switch to new energy sources. Generating energy from waste is one of the potential solutions that can be achieved using microbial fuel cells (MFCs). Microorganisms, ...
Littoral eutrophication indicators are more closely related to nearshore land use than to water nutrient concentrations: A critical evaluation of stressor-response relationships
(Elsevier, 2020)
Biological assessmentmetrics and water chemistry measurements are used to quantify the link between stressors
and their effects on lake ecosystems, for the Water Framework Directive. However, correlations between ...
The NaxMnO2 materials prepared by a glycine-nitrate method as advanced cathode materials for aqueous sodium-ion rechargeable batteries
(Elsevier, 2021)
Cathodic material for sodium-ion rechargeable batteries based on NaxMnO2 were synthesized by glycine nitrate method and subsequent annealing at high temperatures. Different crystal structures with different morphologies ...
Hepatic oxidative stress and neurotoxicity in Pelophylax kl. esculentus frogs: Influence of long-term exposure to a cyanobacterial bloom
(Elsevier, 2021)
Although the long-term exposure of aquatic organisms to cyanobacterial blooms is a regular occurrence in the environment, the prooxidant and neurotoxic effects of such conditions are still insufficiently investigated in ...
Principal component analysis of morphological descriptors for monitoring surface defects induced by thermal shock
(Elsevier, 2021)
Pattern recognition techniques are applied to various morphological descriptors to monitor the formation and propagation of surface defects of materials subjected to thermal shock. A low-cement high-alumina castable was ...
Effect of mesoporous silica nanoparticles on the properties of polyurethane network composites
(Elsevier, 2021)
Novel polyurethane nanocomposite (PUN) materials containing different surface-functionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) were prepared by in situ polymerization methodology. Polyurethane network was formed from ...
Relating environmental pressures to littoral biological water quality indicators in Western Balkan lakes: Can we fill the largest gaps?
(Elsevier, 2022)
Along six transects in each of six lakes across the Western Balkans, we collected data for three groups of littoral biological water quality indicators: epilithic diatoms, macrophytes, and benthic invertebrates. We assessed ...
