Pulsed-UV disinfection of Polyvinyl alcohol-based films inoculated with Bacillus cereus endospores.
(AIT Institute of Technology, 2019-05)Pulsed UV light (PUV) is an emergent non-thermal technology widely used to disinfect food, liquids and surfaces through short but high intensity pulses of polychromatic light (range between 200nm - 1100nm). The PUV is ... -
Preparation and characterization of novel poly(vinyl) (alcohol) (PVA) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) hydrogels for sensitive hydrogels.
(Sciforum, 2014-05)Stimuli Sensitive hydrogels have enormous potential in various applications. Various environmental variables are found in the body, such as low pH and elevated temperatures. For this reason, either pH-sensitive and/or ... -
The evaluation of the potential ecotoxicity of pyroligenous acid obtained from fast pyrolsis.
(Elsevier, 2019-09-30)Pyroligneous acid (PA) is a by-product of bio-oil, which is obtained by pyrolysis of the wood. This product has been tested for use in several areas, such as agriculture, as a promising green herbicide; however, there are ... -
Enhancement of mechanical properties and wettability of TiO2NT arrays formed in simulated body fluid‐based electrolyte.
(Wiley, 2019-09-13)Modified titanium nanotubes (TiO2NTs) coatings are grown in simulated body fluid (SBF) from Ticp and Ti6Al4V. The addition of 1% v/v of SBF to the electrolyte neither modifies film morphology nor the structural oxide ... -
Prediction of yerba mate caffeine content using near infrared spectroscopy.
(Taylor & Francis, 2019-06-10)There is a commercial and beneficial interest of producing yerba mate leaves into different grades of caffeine. This work uses a handheld and bench near infrared spectroscopy to compare and predict, using partial least ... -
Nanosuspension of pinhão seed coat development for a new high-functional cereal bar.
