Porous carbon-faujasite composites containing transition metals for aqueous phase adsorption applications
(2014)
Pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs) have emerged in surface water in concentration levels enough to categorize them as “emerging contaminants” due to a lack of efficient wastewater treatment plant removal ...
Determination of an empirical correlation for the mass transfer coefficients of pharmaceutical powders in a fluid bed layer
(2004)
The pharmaceutical industry has four basic operations to produce tablets: mixing, drying,
milling, and tablet pressing. Fluidized bed drying of the pharmaceutical powders is one of
the most efficient methods, which is ...
Characterization of solid dispersions of hydroxypropyl cellulose films with griseofulvin via hot-melt extrusion
(2012)
Hot-melt extrusion has gained significance in the pharmaceutical industry to formulate solid dispersions. In a solid dispersion, poorly-water soluble drugs can be dispersed in an inert hydrophilic polymer matrix, improving ...
Rheological characterization of pharmaceutical gel formulations
(2010)
The aim of this research work was to study the rheological properties of an industrially relevant gelatin-based pharmaceutical formulation, since the rheology of the product provides
information regarding the structure ...
Kinetics and modeling of batch bioethanol production using suspended co-cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Pichia stipitis in glucose-xylose media
(2010)
A mathematical structured model was developed to predict the behavior of glucosexylose mixtures using the suspended co-culture of the wild-type yeast strains Saccharomyces cerevisiae Montrachet and Pichia stipitis NRRL ...
Carboxymethylation of dextran for surface modification of magnetite nanoparticles
(2009)
Magnetite nanoparticles are currently studied for biomedical applications such as MRI, drug delivery, and magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MHF). These applications require nanoparticles with a suitable coating which provides ...
Brackish water desalination with a novel polymer nanocomposite membrane
(2019-04-05)
The rapid growth of the global population, the industrialization and environmental problems caused by global warming have made it necessary to implement advanced water purification techniques capable of fulfilling the ...
Testing of centrifugal filter devices as a tool to quantify protein-nanoparticle interactions using UV/Vis measurements
(2012)
Centrifugal Filter Devices (CFD) has been tested for the quantification of protein adsorption onto the surface of magnetic nanoparticles coated with biocompatible polymers. Using a phosphate buffered saline wash protocol, ...
Effects of environmental parameters on the chemical signature of landmines
(2005)
The presence of buried landmines is an environmental problem in many parts of the
world; strategies to detect and remove landmines are being developed; one of these
strategies is the developing of chemical based sensors. ...
Catalytic conversion of CO2 to hydrocarbons
(2014)
The production of methanol and dimethyl ether via CO2 hydrogenation was studied using Pd catalysts supported on α-Ga2O3, α-β-Ga2O3 and β-Ga2O3 polymorphs. The catalytic activity improves with the increase in the content ...
