Extraction and characterization of molecular properties of rye grain starch and its susceptibility to the resistant starch formation

10.1016/j.carbpol.2018.04.024

2018-04-10

The aim of this work was to isolate starch from different parts of rye grain by a traditional and newly developed enzymatic method, and to compare the physical, chemical and molecular properties of isolated starches, especially focusing on susceptibility to r...

On the potential of using nanocellulose for consolidation of painting canvases

10.1016/j.carbpol.2018.04.020

2018-04-09

Nanocellulose has been recently proposed as a novel consolidant for historical papers. Its use for painting canvas consolidation, however, remains unexplored. Here, we show for the first time how different nanocelluloses, namely mechanically isolated cellulos...

Cellulosic Cr(salen) complex as an efficient and recyclable catalyst for copolymerization of SO2 with epoxide

10.1016/j.carbpol.2018.04.031

2018-04-07

The search for green catalytic processes for the synthesis of useful polymers and incorporating the waste SO2 in highly-selective pathways become extremely important in the coming years. Herein, cellulose was modified by ethylenediamine, and then synthesized ...

Effect of autohydrolysis on Pinus radiata wood for hemicellulose extraction

10.1016/j.carbpol.2018.04.010

2018-04-07

The extraction of hemicellulose from pine wood was studied by applying autohydrolysis treatment. A central composite experimental design was carried out using different temperatures (150-190 °C) and times (30–90 min) to select the most favorable operating con...

Cyclic nigerosyl-1,6-nigerose-based nanosponges: An innovative pH and time-controlled nanocarrier for improving cancer treatment

10.1016/j.carbpol.2018.04.027

2018-04-06

The design and structural optimisation of a novel polysaccharide-based nanomaterial for the controlled and sustained release of doxorubicin are here reported. A cross-linked polymer was obtained by reacting a tetraglucose, named cyclic nigerosyl-1-6-nigerose ...

High-humidity hot air impingement blanching alters texture, cell-wall polysaccharides, water status and distribution of seedless grape

10.1016/j.carbpol.2018.04.023

2018-04-06

Blanching pretreatment plays an essential role in fruits and vegetables processing to obtain excellent final products. The purpose of current work was to characterise the texture, cell-wall polysaccharides and water distribution of grapes pre- and post- high-...

Preparation of spherical porous hydrogel beads based on ion-crosslinked gum tragacanth and graphene oxide: Study of drug delivery behavior

10.1016/j.carbpol.2018.04.022

2018-04-05

In this study, new spherical pH-sensitive porous hydrogel beads were prepared based on the water-soluble gum tragacanth (GT) polysaccharide and graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets by using Ca+2 and Ba+2 ions as crosslink agents, calcium carbonate particles as soli...

Cellulose nanofibers from banana peels as a Pickering emulsifier: high-energy emulsification processes

10.1016/j.carbpol.2018.04.001

2018-04-04

Cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) from banana peels was evaluated as promising stabilizer for oil-in-water emulsions. CNFs were treated using ultrasound and high-pressure homogenizer. Changes on the size, crystallinity index and zeta potential of CNFs were associat...

Design of reusable novel membranes based on bacterial cellulose and chitosan for the filtration of copper in wastewaters

10.1016/j.carbpol.2018.04.007

2018-04-04

This study has been carried out to design novel, environmentally friendly membranes by in situ and ex situ routes based on bacterial cellulose (BC) as a template for the chitosan (Ch) as functional entity for the elimination of copper in wastewaters. Two rout...

Sodium alginate-grafted submicrometer particles display enhanced reversible aggregation/disaggregation properties
