Large bone defects caused by trauma or disease needs extra intervention. Gelatin/chitosan complex is one of the most valuable compositions for healing, but fast degradation in aqueous solution and low mechanical properties increase need cross-linking agent. The cross-linker concentration method had a significant effect on fabricated scaffolds. Here, three different methods Glutaraldehyde (GA), ...

in the present study seven synthetic polymers were used as adsorbents for the removal of cd(ii) from aqueous solution. the equilibrium studies were systematically carried out in a batch process, covering various process parameters that include agitation time, adsorbent dosage, and ph of the aqueous solution. the analyzing system was an atomic absorption spectrometer (perkin-analyst 100). it was...

Despite the ubiquitous nature of aqueous solutions across the chemical, biological and environmental sciences our experimental understanding of their electronic structure is rudimentary-qualitative at best. One of the most basic and seemingly straightforward properties of aqueous solutions-ionization energies-are (qualitatively) tabulated at the water-air interface for a mere handful of solutes...

rice husk is as an organic solid waste material that has high adsorbing capacity in removal of heavy metal ions from wastewater, and can be very effective in treating industrial aqueous solutions that are important sources of water and soil pollution. in this study, the removal of zn(ii) and cr(vi) ions from aqueous solutions using rice husk was investigated. the investigated parameters include...

Domestic food waste chicken eggshells can produce naturally abundant protein-based eggshell membranes (ESMs), which is used as a less-explored source of sulphur to synthesize hexagonal CdS nanoparticles (NPs) under 365 nm (UVA) light irradiation. The perspective NPs synthesis in the way UVA irradiation soakage technique using ESM distinctive compare other traditional methods. Various physicoche...

radiation degradation of chitosan is one of the most important methods to prepare antibacterial oligochitosans. in this study, the effect of solvent on the reduction of degradation dose and enhancement of the antibacterialactivity of chitosan against pectobacterium carotovorum (pc) has been considered.gamma radiation degradation was applied to chitosan as solid and aqueous solution at dose rang...

Absorption and fluorescence characteristics of aqueous solutions of salts, sugars, and amino acids were studied using UV-vis spectroscopy and spectrofluorometry. Motivation stemmed from unanticipated absorption spectral and fluorescence features of the "exclusion zone" seen adjacent to various hydrophilic surfaces. Those features implied a structure distinct from that of bulk water (Adv. Colloi...

We have performed Molecular Dynamics simulations of ectoine, hydroxyectoine and urea in explicit solvent. Special attention has been spent on the local surrounding structure of water molecules. Our results indicate that ectoine and hydroxyectoine are able to accumulate more water molecules than urea by a pronounced ordering due to hydrogen bonds. We have validated that the charging of the molec...
