Electrospinning was used to develop zein fibers containing phycocyanin and aqueous-ethanolic extract of Spirulina (AEES) for elucidating the potent packaging properties of phycocyanin and AEES on walnut samples. Morphological results revealed that using th ...
Significance: Side effects of many cancer treatments are associated with the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in normal tissues. This explains why patients treated by photodynamic therapy (PDT) often suffer from skin photosensitization, whereas ...

The low-pressure cold microwave (MW) plasma is shown as an efficient method to increase acidity of the ACF within less than 1 min treatment without affecting the fiber morphol. and strength. The ion-exchange capacity was 1.6 times higher compared to the no ...
The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in normal tissues is associated with side effects of many cancer treatments. This is, in particular, the case for the skin photosensitization experienced by certain patients subjected to PDT based on a system ...
Non-surfactant-induced synthesis of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNPs) is gaining increasing interest because of their low toxicity and simple purification compared to conventional surfactant-based methods. Tannic acid (TA), considered as a glucose-de ...
Sphagnum mosses mediate long-term carbon accumulation in peatlands. Given their functional role as keystone species, it is important to consider their responses to ecological gradients and environmental changes through the production of phenolics. We compa ...
Photoemission and near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) techniques have been used to study the adsorption of pyrocatechol on anatase TiO2 (101) and rutile TiO2 (110) single crystals. Photoemission results suggest the pyrocatechol molecule adso ...
