Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is known to promote health concerns that can manifest over both short and long terms. Aging, sunburn, skin cancer, other conditions are related UV radiation. Medication also be negatively affected by this Moreover, modifies the taste, colour, texture of food, may compromise its suitability for human consumption. Therefore, development UV-shielding materials attracts considerable research interest numerous applications, such as UV-light resistant packaging,...
Alginate-based edible films containing natural antioxidants from pineapple peel were applied in the microbial spoilage control, color preservation, and barrier to lipid oxidation of beef steaks under storage at 4 °C for five days. Different stabilization methods compounds used before incorporation into alginate films, including extracted with an hydroalcoholic solvent encapsulated microparticles, microparticles produced by spray-drying juice, particles obtained milling freeze dried peel....
The fabrication of high-end ceramics by additive manufacturing gained increasing research interest due to the capacity these techniques break through limitations traditional extractive manufacturing. Although efficient strategies for processing ceramic materials have been shown, with notable examples in dental field, dense glass-ceramics same means is almost unexplored. Herein, a strategy manufacture complex shapes lithium disilicate material extrusion detailed shown first time. An aging...
The development of easy, translucent, and scalable UV-protection coatings for transparent containers is utmost importance to ensure the safety several food medical products. Here it studied preparation based on carbon quantum dots (C-QD) polyvinyl alcohol, using same temperature but employing two different heating-assisted (conventional oven- microwave oven-assisted heating) hydrothermal syntheses. heating allows formation C-QD in only 1 min, while 180 min are needed produce them a...
The manufacturing of dry-cured meat products usually includes a smoking step. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are potentially carcinogenic chemical compounds that may result from smoking. aim the present study was to optimize regime traditional in order minimize presence PAHs. Dry-cured sausages were submitted different regimes: (A) no smoking; (B) 20 h effective (C) 60 (D) until reaching 38%-40% weight losses. Three independent batches produced per regime, and three samples batch...
Two new examples of uncommon three-dimensional Ca-bearing metal organic frameworks, [Ca(H2O)3(HPXBP)] (CaP1) and [Ca2(H2O)2(HPXBP)1.5] (CaP2) (PXBP: p-xylylenebisphosphonate), were prepared their structures characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. CaP1 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group, with three water molecules occupying a half coordination sphere on one side Ca atom, while CaP2 triclinic P1̅ two crystallographic unique atoms, each coordinated molecule. In contrast...
Porous polymeric scaffolds provide a physical substrate for cells to attach and proliferate, allowing the formation of new tissue.These materials are broadly used in tissue engineering field due their ability mimic native tissue.Each application requires specific morphologies resistance, among other several features.To accomplish these requirements, various techniques available, each one with its advantages disadvantages.Among most relevant salt leaching, solvent casting, gas foaming,...
Poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS)–SiO2–CaO-based hybrid materials prepared by sol–gel have proved to be very promising for tissue engineering applications and drug-delivery systems. These hybrids are biocompatible present osteogenic bioactive properties supporting osteoblast attachment bone growth. The incorporation of therapeutic elements in these materials, such as boron (B) calcium (Ca), was considered this study an approach develop biomaterials capable stimulating regeneration. main purpose...
