Highly stable and versatile α-amylase from Anoxybacillus vranjensis ST4 suitable for various applications
(Elsevier, 2023)
α-Amylase from the thermophilic bacterial strain Anoxybacillus vranjensis ST4 (AVA) was cloned into the pMALc5HisEk expression vector and successfully expressed and purified from the Escherichia coli ER2523 host strain. ...
Obtaining jute fabrics with enhanced sorption properties and “closing the loop” of their lifecycle
(Elsevier, 2021)
The objective of this investigation was to obtain jute fabrics with enhanced sorption properties (by using simple and cost-effective alkali and oxidative modifications) and a long life cycle. The applied alkali modifications ...
Green pH- and magnetic-responsive hybrid hydrogels based on poly(methacrylic acid) and Eucalyptus wood nanocellulose for controlled release of ibuprofen
(Springer, 2021)
pH- and magnetic-sensitive hybrid hydrogels based on poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA), nanocellulose (NC), carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and magnetite particles (MN) were prepared as ibuprofen delivery system. NC was isolated ...
Characterization of the starch surface binding site on Bacillus paralicheniformis α-amylase
(Elsevier, 2020)
α-Amylase from Bacillus paralicheniformis (BliAmy), belonging to GH13_5 subfamily of glycoside hydrolases, was proven to be a highly efficient raw starch digesting enzyme. The ability of some α-amylases to hydrolyze raw ...
Synthesis, characterization and in vitro evaluation of divalent ion release from stable NiFe2O4, ZnFe2O4 and core-shell ZnFe2O4@NiFe2O4 nanoparticles
(Elsevier, 2020)
A simple organic-phase synthesis process was used to produce bare NiFe2O4 and ZnFe2O4 and core-shell ZnFe2O4@NiFe2O4 ferrite nanoparticles. X-ray powder diffractograms for all investigated powders show characteristic peaks ...
Removal of trivalent chromium from aqueous solutions by natural clays: Valorization of saturated adsorbents as raw materials in ceramic manufacturing
(Elsevier, 2023)
Kaolinite/illite (KUb) and sepiolite (SEP) clays were used to study Cr(III) adsorption removal from aqueous solutions so that they could be utilized after saturation for ceramic manufacturing. SEP had a larger specific ...
Stabilization of apo α-lactalbumin by binding of epigallocatechin-3-gallate: Experimental and molecular dynamics study
(Elsevier, 2019)
α-Lactalbumin (ALA) is a Ca2+-binding protein which constitutes up to 20% of whey protein. At acidic pH, and in the apo-state at elevated temperatures, ALA is the classic 'molten globule' (MG). This study examined ...
Exploring and strengthening the potential of R-phycocyanin from Nori flakes as a food colourant
(Elsevier Ltd., 2023)
This study aimed to purify, characterise and stabilise the natural food colourant, R-phycocyanin (R-PC), from the red algae Porphyra spp. (Nori). We purified R-PC from dried Nori flakes with a high purity ratio (A618/A280 ...
Cysteine and cerium as green corrosion inhibitors for AA7049: Mixture vs. complexation
(Elsevier, 2022)
In this work new green corrosion inhibitors based on the synthesized cerium-cysteine complex on AA7049 aluminum alloy were analyzed and compared to the mixture of CeCl3 and cysteine in 0.1 M NaCl. The complex structures ...
Effect of Fe3+ ion doping on photocatalytic ability of nanozirconia ceramic to degrade 2, 4, 6- trichlorophenol
(Elsevier, 2020)
Pure and a series of Fe3+ doped zirconia nanopowders were synthesized combining colloidal chemistry and solvothermal method from organometallic precursors in order to correlate doping and properties of zirconia matrix. ...
