In silico design of a new Zn-triazole based metal-organic framework for CO2 and H2O adsorption
(American Institute of Physics (AIP Publishing), 2021)
In search for future good adsorbents for CO2 capture, a nitrogen-rich triazole-type Metal-Organic Framework (MOF) is proposed based on the rational design and theoretical molecular simulations. The structure of the proposed ...
Synthesis and characterization of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) precursors and potential degradation products: Toxicity study and application in discovery of novel PETases
(Elsevier, 2021)
Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is widely used material and as such became highly enriched in nature. It is generally considered inert and safe plastic, but due to the recent increased efforts to break-down PET using ...
Toxicity investigation of CeO2 nanoparticles coated with glucose and exopolysaccharides levan and pullulan on the bacterium Vibrio fischeri and aquatic organisms Daphnia magna and Danio rerio
(Elsevier, 2021)
Cerium oxide nanoparticles (nCeO2) have widespread applications, but they can be hazardous to the environment. Some reports indicate the toxic effect of nCeO2 on tested animals, but literature data are mainly contradictory. ...
Characterization of potential probiotic strain, L. reuteri B2, and its microencapsulation using alginate-based biopolymers
(Elsevier, 2021)
In this study, Lactobacillus reuteri B2was isolated fromthe feces of C57BL/6 mice and assessed on probiotic activity.L. reuteri B2was identified by 16S rDNA sequencing, which the cell viability in acidic conditions at pH ...
Can a benthic diatom community complement chemical analyses and discriminate between disturbed and undisturbed saline wetland habitats?
(Springer, 2021)
Soda pans are protected in the EuropeanUnion as Natura 2000 areas in the category of‘‘Pannonic saline steppes and marshes’’. There are atleast six soda pans of reference status in Serbia andonly a half have strict legal ...
Graphene quantum dot antioxidant and proautophagic actions protect SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells from oxidative stress-mediated apoptotic death
(Elsevier, 2021)
We investigated the ability of graphene quantum dot (GQD) nanoparticles to protect SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells from oxidative/nitrosative stress induced by iron-nitrosyl complex sodium nitroprusside (SNP).GQD reduced ...
Charge assisted assembly of zwitterionic pyridone hydrates
(Elsevier, 2021)
Two pyridone derivatives, bearing the pyridinium moiety (1), or dimethylpyridinium moiety (2), have been synthesized and their crystal structures have been determined. The compounds crystalize in hydrated zwitterionic forms ...
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 ...
