Soy protein isolate/bioactive glass composite membranes: Processing and properties

Soy protein–nanocellulose composite aerogels

Organic aerogels based on two important and widely abundant renewable resources, soy proteins (SP) and nanofibrillar cellulose (NFC) are developed from precursor aqueous dispersions and a facile method conducive of channeland defect-free systems after cooling and freeze-drying cycles that yielded apparent densities on the order of 0.1 g/cm. NFC loading drives the internal morphology of the comp...

production and investigation of physical and mechanical properties of soy protein isolate - tragacanth based composite film

introduction : one of the most important problems of synthetic packaging of materials had been the time consuming process of their decomposition. therefore, they have the potential to contaminate the environment. during the recent years, the above-mentioned problem has paved the way for developing biodegradable biopolymers. one group of these polymers is films and edible coatings. soy protein i...

Soy Protein Isolate and Gum Arabic Composite Affects Stability of Beverage Emulsion

Chitosan-coated Cellulose/soy Protein Membranes with Improved Physical Properties and Hemocompatibility

A series of cellulose/soy protein membranes (CSM) was coated with chitosan to improve the mechanical properties, cytocompatibility, and hemocompatibility. The original CSM and chitosan-coated CSM (CH/CSM) were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy, water contact angle testing, and tensile testing. CH/CSM had a smoother...

Chitosan/bioactive glass nanoparticle composite membranes for periodontal regeneration.

Barrier membranes are used in periodontal applications with the aim of supporting periodontal regeneration by physically blocking migration of epithelial cells. The present work proposes a combination of chitosan (CHT) with bioactive glass nanoparticles (BG-NPs) in order to produce a novel guided tissue and bone regeneration membrane, fabricated by solvent casting. The CHT/BG-NP nanocomposite m...
