Rheological behavior of thermoreversible k-carrageenan/nanosilica gels [PDF]
The rheological behavior of silica/κ-carrageenan nanocomposites has been investigated as a function of silica particle size and load. The addition of silica nanoparticles was observed to invariably impair the gelation process, as viewed by the reduction

Carrageenan-based hydrogels for the controlled delivery of PDGF-BB in bone tissue engineering applications [PDF]
One of the major drawbacks found in most bone tissue engineering approaches developed so far consists in the lack of strategies to promote vascularisation.

Functional role of starch and kappa-carrageenan on the rheology and flavour of a custard dessert (COST 921 recipe) [PDF]
Flavour release and perception are complex processes in which different physico-chemical and physiological phenomena may be involved 1. Whereas flavour release is mainly governed by chemical and/or physical interactions between flavour compounds and the ...

Construction of a biocompatible and antioxidant multilayer coating by layer-by-layer assembly of -carrageenan and quercetin nanoparticles [PDF]
The present work aimed at the construction and characterization of a multilayer coating based on -carrageenan and quercetin-loaded lecithin/chitosan nanoparticles (Np) by the layer-by-layer technique and the evaluation of its antioxidant capacity and ...

Effect of moisture in κ-carrageenan films on their tensile and relaxation behavior studied by correlation between stress and birefringence [PDF]
A picture on the molecular level describing the deformation and the following relaxation of κ-carrageenan chains has been proposed based on the three-domain structural model for κ-carrageenan films and on the idea of the modified stress-optical rule. The
