Abstract The photocatalytic efficiency of pristine titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) remains suboptimal due to its poor visible light absorption and rapid charge carrier recombination, necessitating fine structu...

The presented study systematically investigated the influence of different thiourea (TU) concentrations on the synthesis and properties of ZnO/ZnS nanocomposites using an electrochemical anodization method. TU acted as a...

Biomaterials capable of controlling the delivery of drugs have the potential to treat a variety of conditions. Herein, the preparation of electrically conductive silk fibroin film-based drug delivery devices is described...

Several metal-organic framework (MOF) materials have been recently employed in optoelectronic devices due to the unique properties of the MOF materials that result in enhanced performance and stability. In this work, the...

Cerium-based conversion coatings were formed on AZ91D magnesium alloy by immersion of the substrate in solutions containing Ce(NO3)3, H2O2 and ascorbic acid (HAsc). The characterisation of the films was performed by elec...

Aim: The aim of this study is to synthesize and characterize the more efficient photocatalyst [zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs)] via the addition of dopant lanthanum (La) and pineapple peel extract. Pineapple peel as a ...

Abstract Background Demineralized dentin matrix (DDM) can serve as a novel scaffold for dental tissue regeneration. This study aimed to assess the impact of two distinct sterilizing methods on morphology of Allo-DDM as w...

Surface-enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA) spectroscopy holds significant promise for chemical detection as it enables direct identification of distinct vibrational fingerprints of molecules. Traditionally, SEIRA has b...

In this work, we present the preparation of a hybrid material constituted by a Metal-Organic Framework (type MIL-101(Fe)) and a natural clay ceramic monolith (NCCM), the materials were successfully assembled through an i...

The present study reports the synthesis of a novel cadmium (II) chloride complex containing ethylenediamine (en) and adenine (Ade) as ligands. The synthesized complex was characterized by several analytical techniques, i...

Controlling nonlinear pulse propagation in optical fibers is paramount for applications spanning spectroscopy and optical communication networks. However, the inherent complexity of laser pulse evolution in matter, shape...

This study explores the use of Plasma-Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD) to apply coatings from six different organic precursors onto aluminum nanoparticles (Al NPs). The goal is to improve their energetic perfor...

Abstract Accurately estimating peak width and wave duration (WD) is a significant challenge across various scientific disciplines. Traditional methods, such as Full Width at Half Maximum (FWHM), often encounter difficult...

Preservation of arthropod cuticles is of paramount importance for taphonomic interpretations in which the fossil record of the chitin-protein complex is considered a key molecular signature of the group studied. In this ...

Using the LIPAc deuteron accelerator, beam loss characteristics were quantitatively assessed through multiple radiation measurement techniques. Elevated shutdown dose rates and isotope production observed at the interfac...

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are complex biological nanoparticles endogenously secreted by all eukaryotic cells. EVs carry a specific molecular cargo of proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids derived from cells of origin an...

Several forms of niobium oxide were prepared, including nanostructured mesoporous materials, and their acidity properties were comprehensively investigated and compared with commercially available materials. The composit...

Achieving long-wavelength infrared (LWIR) cameras with high sensitivity and shorter exposure times faces challenges due to series reflections from high-refractive index lenses within compact optical systems. However, des...

The capability of paramegnetic iron-containing hydroxyapatite (Fe-nAp) and waste bioorganic subtrates templeted iron-containing hydroxyapatite (SBO-Fe-nAp) nanoparticles, as Pb(II) cations adsorbants were investigated an...

The influence of the nonionic surfactant lauryl alcohol ethoxylate with 12 moles ethylene oxide (LAE-12OE) was evaluated on the Stratum corneum model biomembrane (SCMM) of shed snake skin (Bothrops jararaca and Spilotes ...

It is well known that microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is a serious issue in the oil and gas industry. This process is caused by a mixture of microorganisms, including aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. Among th...
