Sustainably made, flexible and biocompatible composites, having environmentally friendly compositions multifunctional capabilities, are promising materials for several emerging biomedical applications. Here, the development of chitosan-based bionanocomposites with a mixed reduced graphene oxide-iron oxide (rGO-Fe3-xO4) filler is described. The prepared by one-pot synthesis, ensuring good dispersibility Fe3-xO4 nanoparticles rGO within chitosan matrix during solvent casting. resulting present...
Despite being widely used in the clinical setting for sentinel lymph node detection (SLND), (99m)Tc-based colloids (e.g., (99m)Tc-human serum albumin colloids) present a set of properties that are far from ideal. Aiming to design novel compounds with improved biological properties, we describe herein first class fully characterized (99m)Tc(CO)₃-mannosylated dextran derivatives adequate features SLND. Dextran derivatives, containing same number pendant mannose units (13) and variable (n)...
The aim of the present study is to synthesize new mannosylated dextran derivative that can be labeled with Tc-99m for potential use in sentinel lymph node detection (SLND). compound was designed have a molecular weight 10 kDa as backbone, mannose binding receptors and S-derivatized cysteine suitable chelator labeling [(99m)Tc(H(2)O)(3)(CO)(3)](+) precursor. Reaction allyl bromide (MW 11800) yielded intermediate allyl-dextran (1) about 40% coupling. Addition resulted cysteine, DC15 (2). final...
The dioxomolybdenum(VI) fragment MoO2X2 has been confined within the ordered mesopores of pure siliceous hexagonal MCM-41 and cubic MCM-48 molecular sieves either by direct grafting (solvent impregnation) with MoO2X2(THF)2 or using a spacer ligand [L = NC(CH2)2Si(OEt)3]. materials have characterised elemental analysis, powder X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption, IR spectroscopy, magic-angle spinning NMR spectroscopy (13C, 29Si). All catalysts, homogeneous heterogenised, are active in...
Nowadays, the development of sustainable high-performance functional nanomaterials is in spotlight. In this work, we report preparation a new generation flexible and high electroconductive nanopapers based on nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) copper nanowires (CuNWs). Homogeneous red brick color (thickness 30.2-36.4 μm) were obtained by mixing different amounts NFC aqueous suspensions CuNWs (1, 5, 10, 20, 50 wt %), followed vacuum filtration drying. scanning electron microscopy (SEM)...
