Natural polymers from organic wastes have gained increasing attention in the biomedical field as resourceful second raw materials for design of devices which can perform a specific bioactive function and eventually degrade without liberating toxic residues surroundings. In this context, patches bandages, that need to support skin wound healing process short amount time be then discarded, certainly constitute good candidates our quest more environmentally friendly management. Here, we propose...
Ureteral stents are among the most frequently used human implants, with urothelium trauma, blood clots, and bacterial colonization being their main reasons for failure. In this study, berberine-loaded zein (ZB) nanoparticles high drug encapsulation efficiency (>90 %) were fabricated via electrospray on flat 3D stainless steel structures. Physico-chemical characterization revealed that ZB created a highly hydrophilic, antioxidant, scratch-resistant continuous coating over metal structure....
Carbon dots are fluorescent nanomaterials with interesting optical properties and good biocompatibility that can be fabricated from many carbon sources. In the present work, we have produced non-woven cotton waste, following an ecological strategy, easy to scale up. The possess strong photoluminescence (PL), they chemically very stable biocompatible. We investigated their photocatalytic under visible–near IR light irradiation, consequently antibacterial these conditions, using as a model...
Abstract In this study, an innovative and scalable strategy is developed to valorize vegetable wastes as valuable cost‐effective natural antioxidant resources in the development of CO 2 ‐based biocomposites. The dried stems (parsley spinach) are firstly micronized then incorporated into a ‐derived poly(propylene carbonate) (PPC) polymer matrix by hot compression molding technique. waste microparticles found be homogenously dispersed within PPC matrix. Due establishment strong intermolecular...
The waste stream of low-grade wool is an underutilized source keratin-rich materials with appropriate methods for upcycling into high value-added products still being open challenge. In the present work, keratins were precipitated from their water solution to produce hierarchical keratin particles via isoelectric precipitation. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization coupled time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry analysis (MALDI-TOF/TOF MS/MS) showed presence amino acid sequence...
The Candida parapsilosis genome encodes for five agglutinin-like sequence (Als) cell-wall glycoproteins involved in adhesion to biotic and abiotic surfaces. work presented here is aimed at analyzing the role of two still uncharacterized ALS genes C. parapsilosis, CpALS4790 CpALS0660, by generation characterization CpALS066 single mutant strains. Phenotypic showed that both strains behaved as parental wild type strain regarding growth rate liquid/solid media supplemented with perturbing...
