Identification and first insights into the structure of chitin from the endemic freshwater demosponge Ochridaspongia rotunda (Arndt, 1937)
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2020)
Studies on the identification, properties and function of chitin in sponges (Porifera), which are recognized as the first multicellular organisms on Earth, continue to be of fundamental scientific interest. The occurrence ...
Photosynthesis Enhancement in Maize via Nontoxic Orange Carbon Dots
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2021)
The sustained increase in leaf photosynthesis may increase crop yield. Due to many limitations, plants use much less photosynthetic capacity than is theoretically possible. Plant nanobionics investigates nanoparticle ...
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, Amsterdam, 2021)
Cerium oxide nanoparticles (nCeO(2)) have widespread applications, but they can be hazardous to the environment. Some reports indicate the toxic effect of nCeO(2) on tested animals, but literature data are mainly contradictory. ...
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 ...
Phenolic Profiling of 12 Strawberry Cultivars Using Different Spectroscopic Methods
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2020)
Phenolic compounds of 12 strawberry cultivars were profiled using spectrophotometry, spectrofluorometry, and high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, coupled with multivariate regression analysis. Total ...
Influence of silicon on polymerization process during lignin synthesis. Implications for cell wall properties
(Elsevier B.V., 2022)
Silicon (Si) is considered a beneficial element for plants, mostly accumulating in cell walls, where its location and content are primed by the chemistry and structure of lignin. It is unrevealed how Si interacts with the ...
Chitosan and pectin-based films and coatings with active components for application in antimicrobial food packaging
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 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 ...
Significance of silicon uptake, transport, and deposition in plants
(Oxford Univ Press, Oxford, 2020)
Numerous studies have shown the beneficial effects of silicon (Si) for plant growth, particularly under stress conditions, and hence a detailed understanding of the mechanisms of its uptake, subsequent transport, and ...
High-performance hydrogen evolution electrocatalysis using proton-intercalated TiO2 nanotube arrays as interactive supports for Ir nanoparticles
(Royal Soc Chemistry, Cambridge, 2020)
Developing ultraefficient electrocatalytic materials for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) with low content of expensive platinum group metals (PGMs) via low-energy-input procedures is the key to the successful ...
Core-shell carbon fiber"Co1.5Mn1.5O4 mesoporous spinel electrode for high performance symmetrical supercapacitors
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2020)
We report a mesoporous composite system consisting of carbon fiber cores surrounded with Co1.5Mn1.5O4 spinel nanocrystal shells, synthesized by a simple two-step process involving single-nozzle co-electrospinning and ...
