Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) produced from red grape pomace: Effect of purification processes on structural, thermal and antioxidant properties.
(Elsevier, 2022-09)
Red grape pomace was used as a source for poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) production, which was then subject to a range of purification processes. The different PHB biopolymers were characterized for chemical structure, ...
Developing active and intelligent films through the incorporation of grape skin and seed tannin extracts into gelatin
(Elsevier, 2022-09)
To achieve sustainability in the wine industry, by-products from winery operations are being diverted from waste streams and turned into beneficial use. Grape seed tannin (SeedT) and skin tannin (SkinT) extracts were used ...
Effect of gelatin concentration, ribose and glycerol additions on the electrospinning process and physicochemical properties of gelatin nanofibers
(Elsevier, 2022-11)
Rheological properties of gelatin-based solutions containing different concentrations of ribose and/or glycerol were assessed before electrospun mats were manufactured and their properties investigated. Characterization ...
3D-Printed Mucoadhesive Collagen Scaffolds as a Local Tetrahydrocurcumin Delivery System
(MDPI, 2021-10-15)
Native collagen doughs were processed using a syringe-based extrusion 3D printer to obtain collagen scaffolds. Before processing, the rheological properties of the doughs were analyzed to determine the optimal 3D printing ...
Effect of Fructose and Ascorbic Acid on the Performance of Cross-Linked Fish Gelatin Films
(MDPI, 2020-03-04)
Gelatin was extracted from fish scales in this work, in an attempt to valorise abundant and available fishery by-products as an approach towards a more circular economy. With this strategy in mind, fish scale gelatin was ...
