BackgroundLiposomes have the ability to enclose hydrophilic or lipophilic materials. Bioactive macromolecules become more stable when they are entrapped within liposomes resisting environmental changes, allowing maintenance of the antimicrobial molecules and increasing their effectiveness and constancy thus can be used for food preservation. The ai...

The main purpose of this research work is to characterize zinc oxide-urea formaldehyde nano resin and identify the physical performance of medium-density fiberboard (MDF). Considering the dry weight of natural fibers, the ZnO nanoparticles were added to urea formaldehyde (UF) glue at four levels—0.0%, 1.0%, 2.0% and 3.0%—and their effects were inve...

Current applications of PCM focus on the temperature range from about − 40 °C to about + 80 °C, with the interest expanding up to about 400 °C for future applications in power plants and industry. Calorimetric measurements to determine the ability of PCM to store heat as a function of temperature are done with a variety of methods and instruments. ...

The Herpes simplex viruses (HSV-1, HSV-2) are responsible for a wide variety of conditions, from cutaneous-mucosal to central nervous system (CNS) infections and occasional infections of the visceral organs, some of them with a lethal end. Acyclovir is often used intravenously, orally, or locally to treat herpetic infections but it must be administ...

The continuous increase in the consumption of aluminium and its alloys has led to an increase in the amount of aluminium scrap. Due to environmental protection, and to reduce the costs of manufacturing aluminum in recent years, a lot of research is devoted to recycling of aluminum alloys. The paper presents the results of research concerning the po...

Curcumin and two bivalent compounds, namely 17MD and 21MO, both obtained by conjugation of curcumin with a steroid molecule that acts as a membrane anchor, were comparatively studied. When incorporated into 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine the compounds showed a very limited solubility in the model membranes. Curcumin and the two bivalen...

This paper investigates the influence of iron oxide (Fe2O3) nanoparticles on the physical properties of medium density fiberboard (MDF). In this study, three different nano iron oxide loadings, i.e., 0.5, 1.5 and 2.5 wt %, and untreated poplar fibers were used. The iron oxide (Fe2O3) nanoparticles were initially dispersed into urea formaldehyde res...
