Facile synthesis of palladium nanoparticles immobilized on magnetic biodegradable microcapsules used as effective and recyclable catalyst in Suzuki-Miyaura reaction and p-nitrophenol reduction
(Elsevier Ltd, 2019)
This study reports (i) preparation and characterization of palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) stabilized on magnetically separable chitosan/agar microcapsules (Pd NPs@Fe3O4/CS-AG microcapsules) and (ii) investigation of ...
Comparison of antimicrobial activities of newly obtained low molecular weight scorpion chitosan and medium molecular weight commercial chitosan
(Soc Bioscience and Bioengineering, Japan, 2016)
In this study the antimicrobial activity of low molecular weight (3.22 IrDa) chitosan, obtained for the first time from a species belonging to the Scorpiones, was screened against nine pathogenic microorganisms (seven ...
Novel chitosan based smart cathode electrocatalysts for high power generation in plant based-sediment microbial fuel cells
(Elsevier Ltd, 2020)
Smart electrocatalysts are synthesized from chitosan polymer and magnetic particles to enhance power by plant based sediment microbial fuel cell (P-SMFC). Cross-linked procedure is performed gelatinous microspheres as ...
High similarity in physicochemical properties of chitin and chitosan from nymphs and adults of a grasshopper
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2016)
This is the first study to explain the differences in the physicochemical properties of chitin and chitosan obtained from the nymphs and adults of Dociostaurus maroccanus using the same method. Fourier transform infrared ...
Physicochemical and in vitro cytotoxic properties of chitosan from mushroom species (Boletus bovinus and Laccaria laccata)
(Elsevier Ltd., 2019)
Chitosan samples from two mushroom species (Boletus bovinus, Laccaria laccata) were obtained and characterized by viscosimetry, attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), elemental ...
Preparation and characterisation of biodegradable pollen-chitosan microcapsules and its application in heavy metal removal
(Elsevier, 2015)
Biosorbents have been widely used in heavy metal removal. New resources should be exploited to develop more efficient biosorbents. This study reports the preparation of three novel chitosan microcapsules from pollens of ...
Supplementing capsaicin with chitosan-based films enhanced the anti-quorum sensing, antimicrobial, antioxidant, transparency, elasticity and hydrophobicity
(Elsevier, 2018)
In the current study, capsaicin, a plant alkaloid with high antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, antiobesity, anticancer and analgesic properties, was used in the film technology for the first time. In the same regard, chitosan ...
A combination method based on chitosan adsorption and duckweed (Lemna gibba L.) phytoremediation for boron (B) removal from drinking water
(Taylor & Francis, 2018)
The metalloid boron (B) and its compounds widely exist in the environment, and boron can have hazardous effects on plants, animals, and human beings when it is found in high concentrations in water bodies. It is difficult ...
Antitumor activity of chitosan from mayfly with comparison to commercially available low, medium and high molecular weight chitosans
(Springer, 2018)
Insects' cuticles have a potential to be evaluated as a chitin source. Especially adults of aquatic insects like mayflies (order Ephemeroptera) swarm in enormous numbers in artificially lit areas while mating in spring and ...
Green synthesis of a palladium nanocatalyst anchored on magnetic lignin-chitosan beads for synthesis of biaryls and aryl halide cyanation
(Elsevier B.V., 2020)
Aryl nitriles, Ar–C ≡ N, and biaryls are important precursors of many compounds commonly used in the industry. Production of aryl nitriles and biaryls through a facile method is therefore of significance. In the study the ...
