Antimicrobial and physical properties of chitosan films incorporated with turmeric extract
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2017)
In this study, the effects of turmeric extract incorporation on the antibacterialand physical properties of the chitosan films were evaluated. Turmeric containing chitosan-based film was produced with casting procedure and ...
Cation Effect on Slow Release from Alginate Beads: A Fluorescence Study
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2014)
In this study, spherical alginate beads containing pyranine (P-y) as a fluorescence probe were prepared by ionotropic gelation of a sodium alginate solution. The steady state fluorescence technique was used to study pyranine ...
Surfactant and metal ion effects on the mechanical properties of alginate hydrogels
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2016)
This paper addresses the controlled variation of the mechanical properties of alginate gel beads by changing the alginate concentration or by adding different surfactants or cross-linking cations. Alginate beads containing ...
Kinetic models for the dynamical behavior of polyacrylamide (PAAm)-kappa-carrageenan (kappa C) composite gels
(Springer, 2015)
A fluorescence method was employed for studying the drying and swelling of PAAm-kappa C composite gels, which were formed from acrylamide (AAm) and N, N'- methylenebisacrylamide (BIS) with various kappa-carrageenan (kappa ...
Antimicrobial cerium ion-chitosan crosslinked alginate biopolymer films: A novel and potential wound dressing
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2017)
Wound dressings require good antiseptic properties, mechanical strength and, more trustably, natural material ingredients. Antimicrobial properties of cerium ions and chitosan are known and alginate based wound dressings ...
ECG feature extraction based on the bandwidth properties of variational mode decomposition
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2016)
It is a difficult process to detect abnormal heart beats, known as arrhythmia, in long-term ECG recording. Thus, computer-aided diagnosis systems have become a supportive tool for helping physicians improve the diagnostic ...
Breast Cancer Detection with Reduced Feature Set
(Hindawi Ltd, 2015)
This paper explores feature reduction properties of independent component analysis (ICA) on breast cancer decision support system. Wisconsin diagnostic breast cancer (WDBC) dataset is reduced to one-dimensional feature ...
Search for lepton flavour violating decays of heavy resonances and quantum black holes to an e mu pair in proton-proton collisions at root s=8 TeV
(Springer, 2016)
A search for narrow resonances decaying to an electron and a muon is presented. The e mu mass spectrum is also investigated for non-resonant contributions from the production of quantum black holes (QBHs). The analysis is ...
Measurement of inclusive jet production and nuclear modifications in pPb collisions at root s(NN)=5.02 TeV
(Springer, 2016)
Inclusive jet production in pPb collisions at a nucleon-nucleon (NN) center-of-mass energy of root s(NN) = 5.02 TeV is studied with the CMS detector at the LHC. A data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of ...
Measurement of differential cross sections for Higgs boson production in the diphoton decay channel in pp collisions at root s=8TeV
(Springer, 2016)
A measurement is presented of differential cross sections for Higgs boson (H) production in pp collisions at root s = 8 TeV. The analysis exploits the H -> gamma gamma decay in data corresponding to an integrated luminosity ...
