The development of composite materials consisting of metal nanoparticles embedded in macromolecular compounds, obtained via in-situ reduction process has attracted research interest. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been synthesized by a one-step …
An ion exchange resin was designed by combining different ratios of ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (EGDE) and imidazole (IM). The aim of the research was to obtain in a single step a resin with permanent positive charges. The strategy was to use …
This work describes a novel delivery system for targeting egg-derived anti-inflammatory tripeptide Ile-Arg-Trp (IRW) to endothelial cells. The nanomedicine is synthesized by a simple and reproducible ionotropic gelification method that results in the …
Geminal diols or gem-diols are the product of the addition of water to a carbonyl group of either an aldehyde or a ketone. These compounds are rarely stable and seldom found in the liquid or solid state since the moisture balance is largely dependent …
Quinoline is one of the most important heterocyclic systems in life sciences. Some derivatives are normal metabolites, and others are used as antibacterial, antimalarial, and anticancer agents. In this work, we describe the synthesis, physicochemical …
Forage legumes are an important livestock nutritional resource, which includes essential metals, such as copper. Particularly, the high prevalence of hypocuprosis causes important economic losses to Argentinian cattle agrosystems. Copper deficiency …
Carbon Dots (CDs) were obtained using a hydrothermal method and used for the detection of fingerprints through fluorescent imaging. Synthesized CDs exhibited a brightness emission at 495 nm, which was related to their structural and chemical …
Reports about the influence of cerium-oxide nanoparticles (nCeO2) on plants are contradictory due to their positive and negative effects on plants. Surface modification may affect the interaction of nCeO2 with the environment, and hence its …
The simultaneous adsorption of both imazalil (IMZ) and thiabendazole (TBZ) fungicides in a Cu 2+ -exchanged Mt was studied in this work. Kinetic studies were used to determine the rate law which describes the adsorption of individual fungicides onto …
Polyethylenimine (PEI)-decorated gold nanoparticles (AuNP) were electrodeposited on conductive surfaces in one-step procedure. Solution-state NMR evidenced that chloride from PEI.HCl was partially exchanged by AuCl 4 − prior to AuNP formation. XPS …
