Photochromism of Poly(lactic acid) Mixed with 9,10-Anthraquinone

Polylactic acid (PLA)

This website provides an excellent overview of PLA as a polymer, its properties, and manufacture. This web article describes the production of lactic acid from biomass by microbial fermentation coupled to a poly-merization process to make PLA. The article is a bit dated and its industrial projections are now seen to be a bit over-optimistic. NatureWorks is the company that started large-scale p...

Investigation of drug release from paclitaxel loaded polylactic acid nanofibers

Objective(s): In this study, drug loaded electrospun nanofibrous mats were prepared and drug release and mechanism from prepared nanofibers were investigated.  Materials and Methods: Paclitaxel (PTX) loaded polylactic acid (PLA) nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning. The effects of process parameters, such as PTX concentration, tip to collector distance, voltage, temperature and flow rate...

Microwave-Assisted Modification of Carbon Nanotubes with Biocompatible Polylactic Acid

Polylactic acid (PLA) was successfully covalently grafted onto multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) by microwave-assisted polymerization of lactide monomers. The final products MWCNT-g-PLA were characterized with Fourier-transform IR (FTIR), Raman spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analyses (TGA) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results indicated PLA chain was covalently attached t...

Green nanocomposites of polylactic acid reinforced with isolated nanocellulose

study of dna interaction with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and sesamol food additives

برهمکنش dnaتیموس گاوی طبیعی (ct-dna) با اتیلن دی آمین تترااستات (edta)در بافرtris-hcl با 8/7 ph ( دراین ph،edta به نمک دی سدیم تبدیل می شود) وسسامول در بافر tris-hcl با4/7 ph مورد بررسی قرار گرفته است. edta و سسامول استفاده فراوانی در تکنولوژی غذایی و صنعت شیمیایی دارند. مدل اتصال dna مربوط بهedta بوسیله اسپکتروفتومتری جذب، دورنگ نمایی حلقوی(cd)، ویسکومتری وژل الکتروفورز بررسی شده است. طیفuv ...
