The COVID-19 pandemic was first reported on 31 December 2019, in Wuhan. Since then, the rapid spread of virus has directly impacted various aspects people’s lives, including culture, society, education, and economy. environment also been affected, as disposal thousands tons single-use personal protective equipment resulted a significant increase waste. challenge to create environmentally friendly materials for equipment. One alternatives polypropylene is biodegradable nonwoven produced using...
Geotextiles are used for separation, drainage, filtration and sealing of anti-erosion protection, as well improving plant vegetation conditions. The research objective this work was to verify the effect adding poultry feathers on acceleration biodegradation nonwovens in arable soil. studies were conducted laboratory conditions based assessment mass loss. experiments confirmed positive presence waste rich keratin time required tested materials (the period 1–24 weeks). In addition, ecotoxicity...
Geotextiles are widely used for separation, drainage, filtration, and erosion control, as well enhancing plant growth conditions. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact incorporating poultry feathers on biodegradation rate nonwoven geotextiles in arable soil. research conducted under laboratory conditions, with assessed based mass loss. findings confirmed that presence keratin-rich waste positively influenced tested materials. Additionally, potential ecotoxicological effects...
Biopolymer composites have received increasing attention for their beneficial properties such as being biodegradable and having less influence to the environment. Biodegradability of materials has become a desired feature due growing problems connected with waste management. The aim paper is emphasize importance textile materials, especially nonwoven an anti-pathogenic layer. article refers definitions biodegradation, degradation composting processes, well presenting methods testing...
Abstract The aim of the article is to examine how textile industry in Łódź Voivodeship has evolved context building smart regional specialisations. ideas underlying concept specialisation order use this foundation outline trends development and transformation Central Eastern European countries are described. innovative capacity region shown. research used an analysis existing materials, statistical methods LQ location indicators. Specific territorial capital accumulated for over two...
In recent years, the amount of produced petrochemical plastic waste has been growing at an alarming rate. According to Plastics Europe Market Research Group (PEMRG)/Conversio & Strategy GmbH, in 2018 global production plastics amounts 359 million tons, and Europe—61.8 tons. More than 80% all marine litter is plastic, which accumulates environment due its durability. Due problem, biodegradable polymer products are introduced market. Therefore, it necessary conduct research on degradation...
Abstract In this study, the levels of concentration carboxylic acids (benzoic acid, p -hydroxybenzoic -hydroxyphenylacetic and hippuric acid) in urine autistic children were investigated compared. The increased excretion is related to excessive bacterial activity gut, called overgrowth, which has been autism spectrum disorder (ASD) as an impairment gut-brain axis. investigation was based on analysis samples obtained from 120 ASD children. To identify quantify urinary (UCAs), we applied gas...
Abstract The paper describes the results of research on consumer awareness and attitudes in field ecology labelling packaging products. was divided into two parts. first one related to perception respondents regarding ecology, while second classification cosmetics products presented. obtained were analysed statistically. correlation analysis performed showed existence a relationship between variables selected (consumer attitudes). Strong correlations noticed. that consumers equate properties...
Geotextiles are used for separation, drainage, filtration and anti-erosion protection sealing, as well to improve plant vegetation conditions. The research objective of this study was verify the influence addition poultry feathers on accelerating biodegradation nonwovens in cultivated soil. tests were carried out laboratory conditions based assessment weight loss. experiments confirmed positive effects presence waste that rich keratin time required tested materials (the period 8-24 weeks)....
This paper presents a new approach to autism – complex and still enigmatic condition. We present the results of our preliminary research which was based on detection hallucinogenic substance 6- (or 10-)methoxyharmalan in urine samples autistic children with use chromatographic methods. Additionally, we aim describe relationship between level tryptophan harmalan, influence supplementation this compound. applied HPLC-UV/vis, HPLC-DAD LC–MS order determine McIsaac's compound obtained from (n =...
The aim of this work was to demonstrate the process manufacturing and applying functionalising additives using a pilot research installation. As part optimisation evaluation, hygienic papers functionalised with biopolymer-biocide compositions based on chitosan, starch Gemini surfactants were prepared. microbiological properties susceptibility biodegradation prototype (prepared in EPICOM) assessed. In particular, minimum amount biopolymer bioactive agent determined ensure finished product...
Background: Ticks (Acari: Ixodida) pose a serious medical and veterinary threat as vectors of tick-borne pathogens. The wide variety tick repellents available on the market primarily consist synthetic preparations that may disrupt ecological balance accumulate in environment, leading to harmful effects humans animals. aim study was develop an preparation based natural raw materials (biopolymers) with addition mixture essential oils act repellents. Methods: were acquired through...
