Proteins are biological macromolecules which have a unique spatial conformation. This spatial conformation can be affected by extremes in pH, temperature, and organic solvents. Once this 3D spatial conformation is affected ...

This work focused initially on the size reduction of naproxen sodium to less than 5 µm for inhalation applications. The second objective was the adhesion of naproxen sodium particles to micronized lactose particles with ...

The aim of this research work was to study the rheological properties of an industrially relevant gelatin-based pharmaceutical formulation, since the rheology of the product provides information regarding the structure ...

The continuous emissions of greenhouse gases, especially carbon dioxide (CO2), are generating concerns over the negative effects they are having on the planet. The main goal of this project is to understand the adsorption ...

Value-added chemicals and fuels produced via the biotransformation of lignocellulosic biomass resources like crop biomass waste are necessary to reduce our dependence on the non-renewable conversion of raw materials. ...

Efforts devoted to the efficient use of agro-industrial residues have increased, especially if the use contributes to solve pollution problems. Coffee pulp/husk is the main byproduct generated during coffee wet processing. ...

Oleic acid coated cobalt ferrite nanoparticles (CoFe2O4-OA), which relax through the Brownian mechanism, were dispersed in Polystyrene (PS) and Polybutadiene (PBD) of various molecular weights (MW). These suspensions were ...

Solubility data for pharmacological drugs in supercritical fluids (SCFs) is of great importance, because there is an environmental and cost effective need for alternative specialty separation methods. This research was ...

The removal of nitrate and potassium from wheat leachate solution was studied using an electrolytic cell in batch recirculation mode for use in advance life support systems (ALSS). The ALSS or CELSS (Controlled Ecological ...

The presence of buried landmines is an environmental problem in many parts of the world; strategies to detect and remove landmines are being developed; one of these strategies is the developing of chemical based sensors. ...
