Improvement of the monitoring and biosafety of encapsulated cells using the SFGNESTGL triple reporter system
(Elsevier, 2010-05-23)
Cell microencapsulation may represent a breakthrough to overcome problems associated with cell therapy. Advances in material biocompatibility and production protocols have put this field close to its clinical application. ...
Inactivation of encapsulated cells and their therapeutic effects by means of TGL triple-fusion reporter/biosafety gene
(Elsevier, 2012-11-19)
The immobilization of cells within alginate-poly-l-lysine-alginate (APA) microcapsules has been demonstrated to be an effective technology design for long term delivery of therapeutic products. Despite promising advances, ...
Enhancing biochar redox properties through feedstock selection, metal preloading and post-pyrolysis treatments
(Elsevier, 2020-09-01)
There is growing evidence on the importance of the redox properties of biochar for many environmental applications. However, its variability and the difficulty in controlling its redox properties could be delaying the use ...
Improving energy poverty measurement in Southern European Regions through equivalisation of theoretical energy costs
(2020-07-16)
In many European countries, energy poverty is measured on the basis of real energy bills, as theoretical energy costs are hard to calculate. The UK is an exception—the data inputs for the Low Income-High Cost (LIHC) indicator ...
Influence of Thermally-Induced Structural Transformations over Magnetic and Luminiscence Properties of Tartrate-based Chiral Lanthanide Organic-Frameworks
(RSC, 2020-05-04)
This work reports on the synthesis and characterization of five enantiomeric pairs of isostructural 3D metal-organic
frameworks (MOFs) with the general formula {[Ln2(μ4-tar)2(μ-tar)(H2O)2]·xH2O}n [where Ln(III) = Tb (Tb-L ...
In-situ analytical study of bricks exposed to marine environment using hand-held X-ray fluorescence spectrometry and related laboratory techniques
(Elsevier, 2018-05-03)
In this work, the degradation processes that take place in bricks exposed to marine environments have been studied. Taking into account the importance of this building material where the silicates present in the final ...
In Vitro Degradation of PLLA/nHA Composite Scaffolds
(Wiley, 2013-11-08)
Porous Poly-L-lactide (PLLA) scaffolds and PLLA/nanohydroxyapatite
(nHA) composite scaffolds with interconnected
pore networks and a porosity of over 90% were
fabricated with lyophilization techniques. In this study, ...
Kinetic modeling of CO2 + CO hydrogenation to DME over a CuO-ZnO-ZrO2@SAPO-11 core-shell catalyst
(Elsevier, 2020-09-01)
A kinetic model for the CO2 + CO hydrogenation to dimethyl ether (DME) in a single step over an original core-shell structured CuO-ZnO-ZrO2@SAPO-11 bifunctional catalyst (metallic in the core and acid in shell) has been ...
