Flexible titanium silicate porous materials for selective carbon dioxide adsorption
(2013)
Flexible titanium silicates are Zorite-like synthetic materials in which their framework atoms’ configuration exhibits mixed oxides containing tetrahedrally coordinated silicon and squaredpyramidal/octahedral titanium ...
Oil accumulation via Chlorella species using carbon sources from waste
(2009-12)
One of the global issues acquiring significant attention these days is related to energy supply and demand. The irreversible decrease of fossil fuels left to supply energy and the greenhouse gases increase in the atmosphere ...
Carboxymethylation of dextran for surface modification of magnetite nanoparticles
(2009)
Magnetite nanoparticles are currently studied for biomedical applications such as MRI, drug delivery, and magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MHF). These applications require nanoparticles with a suitable coating which provides ...
Studies of ferrite based magnetic nanoparticle uptake and magnetocytolysis effects on model cell cultures
(2009)
Suspended ferrite magnetic nanoparticles are known to dissipate energy under an oscillating magnetic field. Such energy dissipation could be employed to locally raise temperature inside a tumor to 41-45°C (hyperthermia), ...
Rheology and gelation of physical polymer gels
(2011)
The discovery of new potent and water-insoluble drugs has emphasized the need for novel drug-delivery systems and personalized dosification. Biopolymers solutions are an alternative over conventional methods since they can ...
Atomic pair distribution study of the growth of Pt nanoparticles in zeolites
(2016)
The Pair Distribution Function (PDF) is a total scattering method used to study the local structure of a material and yields a function in real space with peaks that represent the interatomic distances. In this work, we ...
Effect of operational and design parameters on the early stages of high shear wet granulation processes
(2014)
The development of new technologies, active ingredients and regulatory initiatives, has increased the need for a scientific understanding of the pharmaceutical manufacturing processes. In this context, solid dosage forms ...
Magnetically and thermally responsive nanoparticles for biomedical applications.
(2013)
The synthesis of magnetic nanoparticles which respond to alternating magnetic fields by Brownian and Neel relaxation mechanisms are of great interest in determining mechanical properties of complex fluids in the size scale ...
