Improvement of the Thermal Stability of Polymer Bioblends by Means of Reactive Extrusion. [PDF]
Polymers (Basel), 2022 Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and biosourced polyamide (PA) bioblends, with a variable PA weight content of 10–50%, were manufactured by melt blending in order to improve the behavior of PLA against thermal degradation. The effect of reactive extrusion on the thermal performance of PLA within bioblends was analyzed.

Intuitive representation of surface properties of biomolecules using BioBlender [PDF]
BMC Bioinformatics, 2012 Abstract Background In living cells, proteins are in continuous motion and interaction with the surrounding medium and/or other proteins and ligands. These interactions are mediated by protein features such as electrostatic and lipophilic potentials.

BioBlend: automating pipeline analyses within Galaxy and CloudMan [PDF]
Bioinformatics, 2013 Abstract Summary: We present BioBlend, a unified API in a high-level language (python) that wraps the functionality of Galaxy and CloudMan APIs. BioBlend makes it easy for bioinformaticians to automate end-to-end large data analysis, from scratch, in a way that is highly accessible to collaborators, by allowing them to both provide the ...

Radiation Modification and Characterization of Polyvinyl alchohol/Starch/Citric Acid/Glycerol Bioblend Film [PDF]
Polymers from Renewable Resources, 2021 Abstract The blending of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) with starch with different content of citric acid as crosslinker and glycerol as plasticizer were performed by casting method. The hydroxyl groups of PVA and Starch react with the citric acid (1 %) and glycerol (10 vol %) to form crosslinked network. The FTIR spectral analyses show the successful

Impact behavior of PLA/PCL bioblends [PDF]
, 2020 The effect of adding polycaprolactone (PCL) on the impact behavior of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) has been evaluated. Bioblends (with and without compatibilizer) were prepared in a pilot plant (twin screw extrusion, 5kg/h) in different compositions. Impact testing was carried out using instrumented falling weight impacts at room temperature on plates ...

BioMed Research International, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015 Sequencing the human genome began in 1994, and 10 years of work were necessary in order to provide a nearly complete sequence. Nowadays, NGS technologies allow sequencing of a whole human genome in a few days. This deluge of data challenges scientists in many ways, as they are faced with data management issues and analysis and visualization drawbacks ...

Use of BioBlender for all atom morphing of protein structures
EMBnet.journal, 2012 Motivations. The vast majority of proteins and other biological macromolecules act in life processes through some form of motion. While this concept has been recognized and is ever more considered in the structural biology field, it is still difficult to handle by the majority of experimental scientists.
