introduction : albumin, one of the most important plasma proteins, has a difficult process of synthesis and production. we compared two different methods for albumin purification: carboxymethyl cellulose (cm cellulose) resin exchange and diethylaminoethyl cellulose (deae cellulose) resin exchange in order to determine which resin could be more beneficial. materials and methods : two ion exchang...

Sugar palm (Arenga pinnata) fibre (SPF) waste is a side product of sugar starch production and needs to be processed avoid environmental pollution. Since the SPF has high cellulose content, it can beneficial if valorized into high-value products such as nanocrystal (CNC). The CNC from was initiated by using an environmentally friendly peroxide bleaching elementary chlorine free method. conducte...

there are many reports on the application of different hydrocolloids in the production of leavened breads; most of which show positive effects on bread quality. however, there is little information to prove such effect on flat breads. the main aim of this study was to improve the quality of barbari dough and bread (iranian flat bread) in terms of texture, taste and general acceptability of fres...

In this work we developed electrospun lignin/cellulose acetate fiber-bead nanostructures and explored their potential as structuring agents for vegetable oils to be used eco-friendly lubricating oleogels. A variety of were obtained from solutions containing 20 or 30 wt. % eucalyptus Kraft lignin (EKL) cellulose (CA) in variable weight ratios 100:0 60:40 an N,N-dimethylformamide/acetone mixture....

BACKGROUND Cisplatin is a potent anticancer drug, but its clinical application has been limited due to its undesirable physicochemical characteristics and severe side effects. Better drug formulations for cisplatin are highly desired. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Herein, we have developed a nanoparticle formulation for cisplatin with high encapsulation efficiency and reduced toxicity by usi...
