Effect of unidirectional freezing using a thermal camera on polyvinyl (alchohol) for aligned porous cyrogels.
(Taylor & Francis Online, 2020-03-18)
Unidirectional freeze casting for polymers and ceramics has been performed extensively; however, the mechanisms involved in unidirectional freezing are not thoroughly understood and therefore, in this study, polyvinyl ...
Influence of extrusion screw speed on the properties of halloysite nanotube impregnated polylactic acid nanocomposites
(De Gruyter, 2021)
Poly (lactic acid)/halloysite nanotube (PLA/HNT)
nanocomposites have been studiedextensively over the past
fewyears owing to the interesting properties of the polymer,
PLA, and the nanoclay, HNT, individually and as ...
Evaluation of the efficacy of lipid core nanoemulsions containing temozolomide coupled to ferrocenes in the treatment of Glioblastomas
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020)
Glioblastoma (GB) is the most common and aggressive neoplastic brain tumor, and its treatment has proved to be a challenge.
For decades its therapy has been based on the use of temozolomide (TMZ), but the survival rate ...
Composite films of thermoplastic starch and CaC12 extracted from eggshells for extendiing food shelf-life
(MDPI, 2021-09-03)
Calcium chloride (CaCl2) has been widely used to maintain the quality of fresh-cut fruits
and vegetables because it stabilizes and strengthens the membrane system against fungal attacks.
It is mainly applied via spray ...
Transfer and optimisation of injection moulding manufacture of medical devices using scientific moulding principles
(MDPI, 2021-10-25)
Scientific moulding, also known as decoupled injection moulding, is a production methodology used to develop and determine robust moulding processes resilient to fluctuations caused by variation in temperature and viscosity. ...
Application of biomaterials for complex anal fistulae
(Taylor & Francis, 2021-11-07)
Complex anal fistulae remain a challenge for the medical sector as conventional treatments put
patients at risk of incontinence. Clinicians and researchers have become interested in the application
of bioresorbable ...
Self-photopolymerizable hydrogel-ceramic composites with scavenger properties
(MDPI, 2022-03-21)
The photocatalytic behaviours of semiconductive ceramic nanoparticles such as TiO2, ZnO, Fe2O3, and Fe3O4, have been extensively studied in photocatalysis and photopolymerization, due to their ability to produce radical ...
The development of novel bioresorbable medical devices for treating diseases of the anal canal
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020-06)
Anal
abscesses and fistulae in ano are the most prominent diseases of the anal canal Abscesses are pockets of pus caused by
accumulating bactera whereas fistulae in ano are hollow tunnels that protrude from the wall of ...
Antimicrobial films containing green synthesised zinc oxide nanoparticles for biomedical applications
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020-06)
Synthetic biomaterials have been vastly investigated for
different biomedical applications such as wound healing
adhesives, implant devices and drug delivery systems. The
effort on this field of study promoted the ...
An ensemble machine learning method for microplastics identification with FTIR spectrum
(Elsevier, 2022-06-20)
Microplastics (MPs) (size < 5 mm) marine pollution have been investigated and monitored by many researchers
and found in many coasts around the world. These toxic chemicals make their way into human diet through food ...
