Green/sustainable treatment of washing machine greywater for reuse in the built environment

open access: yesCleaner Engineering and Technology, 2022
Given the growing demand for water in the world, approaches and/or actions are needed to reduce consumption and increase demand. In the latter case, water reuse is a viable alternative to increase the demand for non-potable water in homes.

Antimicrobial surfaces based on self-assembled nanoreactors : from block copolymer synthesis to bacterial adhesion study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The aim of this work is to develop a new strategy for the prevention of biofilm growth. For this purpose, we prepared bioactive surfaces resulting from the surface-immobilization of nanoreactors self-assembled from amphiphilic poly(isobutylene)-block ...

The influence of different technological co-adjuvants on the quality and yield of virgin olive oil using response surfaces methodology

open access: yesGrasas y Aceites, 2008
Response surface methodology was employed to evaluate the effects of two technological co-adjuvants in virgin olive oil extraction from the Hojiblanca olive variety with a low ripening index: the addition of talc during the malaxation of the olive paste ...

Effect of Wear-Corrosion of Reduced Graphene Oxide Functionalized with Hyaluronic Acid on Inflammatory and Proteomic Response of J774A.1 Macrophages

open access: yesMetals, 2023
The presence of a worn surface in the implanted material, as in the case of a replacement of a damaged osteoarticular joint, is the normal condition after implantation.

The initial inflammatory response to bioactive implants is characterized by NETosis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Implants trigger an inflammatory response, which is important for osseointegration. Here we studied neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) release of human neutrophils in response to sandblasted large-grit acid etched (SLA) implants using fluorescent ...

Response bias in grouping

open access: yesPaidéia (Ribeirão Preto), 2004
Surface color similarity may cause the perceptual grouping of uniform achromatic surfaces on an achromatic background both when the background is homogeneous and when the background contains achromatic context surfaces.

Bacteria Death and Osteoblast Metabolic Activity Correlated to Hydrothermally Synthesised TiO2 Surface Properties

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
Orthopaedic surgery comes with an inherent risk of bacterial infection, prolonged antibiotic therapy and revision surgery. Recent research has focused on nanostructured surfaces to improve the bactericidal and osseointegrational properties of implants ...

A gateway for ion transport on gas bubbles pinned onto solids

open access: yesCommunications Chemistry, 2021
Electrocatalytic reactions depend on ion transport phenomena within the electric double layer, but the electrochemical response of single gas bubbles that form on catalyst surfaces remains unclear.

Hydroxyapatite-modified micro/nanostructured titania surfaces with different crystalline phases for osteoblast regulation

open access: yesBioactive Materials, 2021
Surface structures and physicochemical properties critically influence osseointegration of titanium (Ti) implants. Previous studies have shown that the surface with both micro- and nanoscale roughness may provide multiple features comparable to cell ...
