Influence of surface coverage of kaolin with surfactant ions on adsorption of ochratoxin A and zearalenone
(Elsevier, 2021)
A natural kaolin from Serbia was modified with different amounts of octadecyldimethylbenzyl ammonium (ODMBA) - (25, 50 and 90% of kaolin cation exchange capacity). Samples were denoted as OKR-25, OKR-50 and OKR-90. Several ...
Influence of selective acid-etching on functionality of halloysite-chitosan nanocontainers for sustained drug release
(Elsevier, 2021)
The functionality of halloysite (Hal) nanotubes as drug carriers can be improved by lumen enlargement and polymer modification. This study investigates the influence of selective acid etching on Hal functionalization with ...
Chemical Fingerprint and Kernel Quality Assessment in Different Grafting Combinations of Almond Under Stress Condition
(Elsevier, 2021)
The study was designed to investigate chemical composition and kernel quality of almond cultivars ‘Troito’, ‘Marcona’ and ‘Texas’ grafted on Myrobalan plum seedlings and ‘GF 677’ rootstock under drought stress. Oil content ...
The significance of the metal cation in guanine-quartet - metalloporphyrin complexes
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021)
The planarity and the appropriate size of the porphyrin ring make porphyrin derivatives ideal ligands for stacking to guanine quartets and they could thus be used as anti-cancer drugs. In this contribution we analyzed ...
Chitosan and pectin-based films and coatings with active components for application in antimicrobial food packaging
(Elsevier, 2021)
This investigation was aimed to develop films and coatings based on natural biopolymers and active components, with physicochemical and functional properties for application in antimicrobial packaging. Biopolymer films ...
Improving ethylene glycol transport properties by caffeine – Thermodynamic and computational evidence
(Elsevier, 2021)
In this article, detailed physicochemical characterization of ethylene glycol and caffeine + ethylene glycol mixtures is performed based on density, viscosity and refractive indices measurements in temperature range from ...
The chicken eggshell calcium oxide ultrasonically dispersed over lignite coal fly ash-based cancrinite zeolite support as a catalyst for biodiesel production
(Elsevier, 2021)
Lignite coal fly ash (FA) from a domestic thermal power plant was converted into a pure cancrinite zeolitic material (ZMFA) using a novel, custom-made, rotating autoclave reactor system by a short-term alkali activation ...
Natural Pigment from Madder Plant as an Eco-Friendly Cathode Material for Aqueous Li and Na-Ion Batteries
(IOP Publishing, 2021)
Modifying commercial Li-ion batteries to become more environmentally friendly is of a growing concern. This paper provides an
examination of a potential replacement for commercial cathode material using a naturally occurring ...
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. ...
Soil erodibility in European mountain beech forests
(Canadian Science Publishing, 2021)
Forests in Europe are currently not endangered by soil erosion. However, this can change with climate change orwith intensified forest management practices. Using a newly established network of plots in beech forests across ...
