Risk assessment of using fish from different types of reservoirs as human food - A study on European perch (Perca fluviatilis)
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Concentrations of As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Pb, and Zn in sediment samples and muscle tissue of the European perch were analyzed using inductively-coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES), with the aim to assess ...
RuxTi1-xO2 as the support for Pt nanoparticles: Electrocatalysis of methanol oxidation
(Amsterdam : Elsevier, 2015)
Two binary Ru-Ti oxides, Rum Ti0.9O2 and Ru0.7Ti0.3O2, were synthesized by the sol-gel method and used as an electrocatalyst support. The system was characterized by XRD, EDS, TEM and cyclic voltammetry. The Rum Ti0.9O2 ...
Metal oxide nanoparticles for safe active and intelligent food packaging
(Elsevier Science London, London, 2021)
Background: Food safety and food security remain the major concern of consumers and the food industry. Bacterial contamination continues to be a crucial food safety issue. Smart packaging incorporates both active and ...
Positive influence of Sb doping on properties of di-phase multiferroics based on barium titanate and nickel ferrite
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2018)
Multiferroic composite materials based on antimony doped barium titanate/nickel ferrite were prepared by a mixing route. In order to obtain fine grained microstructure composite materials, pure constituent phases were ...
Visible-light active mesoporous, nanocrystalline N,S-doped and co-doped titania photocatalysts synthesized by non-hydrolytic sol-gel route
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Visible-light active mesoporous N,S-doped and co-doped anatase TiO2 powders were synthesized by non-hydrolytic sol-gel route, starting from TiCl4 and Ti((OPr)-Pr-i)(4) dissolved in cyclohexane or dimethyl sulfoxide, later ...
External sulfate attack on alkali-activated slag
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
This paper analyses the effects of external sulfate attack (5% Na2SO4 solution) on mechanical and microstructural properties of alkali-activated slag (AAS). Portland-slag cement (CEM II/A-S 42.5N) was used as a benchmark ...
Effects of the concentrated NH4NO3 solution on mechanical properties and structure of the fly ash based geopolymers
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
The geopolymers based on fly ash were exposed to the concentrated (6 M) NH4NO3 solution for 540 days. The highest compressive strength decrease occurred in the initial 28 days testing period. Study of the effects of the ...
Silicon modifies leaf nutriome and improves growth of oak seedlings exposed to phosphorus deficiency and Phytophthora plurivora infection
(Frontiers, 2023)
Beneficial effects of silicon (Si) on plants have primarily been studied in crop species under single stress. Moreover, nutrient acquisition-based responses to combination of biotic and abiotic stresses (a common situation ...
Nanoindentation study of nickel manganite ceramics obtained by a complex polymerization method
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
The chemical synthesis of nickel manganite powder was performed by a complex polymerization method (CPM). The obtained fine nanoscaled powders were uniaxially pressed and sintered at different temperatures: 1000-1200 degrees ...
Nitrate does not result in iron inactivation in the apoplast of sunflower leaves
(Amer Soc Plant Biologists, Rockville, 2003)
It has been hypothesized that nitrate (NO3-) nutrition might induce iron (Fe) deficiency chlorosis by inactivation of Fe in the leaf apoplast (H.U. Kosegarten, B. Hoffmann, K. Mengel [1999] Plant Physiol 121: 1069-1079). ...
