The conditions for the formation of gels from banana extracts were studied. Gels were obtained with extracts more alkaline than pH 7.0 with very small quantities of calcium, strontium, and barium salts, the gel formation with these salts decreasing in the indicated order.

Amyloid peptide mixtures: self-assembly, hydrogelation, nematic ordering and catalysts in aldol reactions [PDF]
Morphological, spectroscopic and scattering studies of the self-assembly and aggregation process of mixtures of [RF]4 and P[RF]4 peptides (where: R = arginine; F = phenylalanine; P = proline), in solution and as hydrogels, were performed to obtain ...

Viscoelastic behavior of gels obtained from five cultivars of quinoa at altitude gradient
BackgroundQuinoa consumption has created a challenge for producers and food processors. They need to study new cultivars and the functional properties of quinoa flours.MethodsThe structural and rheological properties of six quinoa cultivars (Titicaca ...

Herein, we show that twisted molecular nanoribbons with as many as 322 atoms in the aromatic core are efficient gelators capable of self-assembling into ordered π-gels with morphologies and sol–gel transitions that vary with the length of the nanoribbon.

Spinal cord injury (SCI), is a devastating condition leading to the loss of locomotor and sensory function below the injured segment. Despite some progress in acute SCI treatment using stem cells and biomaterials, chronic SCI remains to be addressed.

Using Rheo-Small-Angle Neutron Scattering to Understand How Functionalised Dipeptides Form Gels [PDF]
We explore the use of rheo-small-angle neutron scattering as a method to collect structural information from neutron scattering simultaneously with rheology to understand how low-molecular-weight hydrogels form and behave under shear.

A Novel MBAS-RF Approach to Predict Mechanical Properties of Geopolymer-Based Compositions
Using gels to replace a certain amount of cement in concrete is conducive to the green concrete industry, while testing the compressive strength (CS) of geopolymer concrete requires a substantial amount of substantial effort and expense.

Actuation performances of anisotropic gels [PDF]
We investigated the actuation performances of anisotropic gels driven by mechanical and chemical stimuli, in terms of both deformation processes and stroke--curves, and distinguished between the fast response of gels before diffusion starts and the ...
