Hydrogels represent a class of high water content polymers with physical or chemical crosslinks. Their physical properties are similar to soft tissues. Cross linking is a stabilization process in polymer chemistry which leads to... more
Wet spinning and radial self-assembly of a carbohydrate low molecular weight gelator into well organized hydrogel fi laments A single biocompatible small molecule, the N-heptyl-D-galactonamide can be spun into well-defi ned hydrogel fi... more
Oxygen vacancies at the SnO2(110) and (101) surface and subsurface sites have been studied in the framework of density functional theory by using both all-electron Gaussian and pseudopotential plane-wave methods. The all-electron... more
The rheological properties and fractal dimensions of flaxseed gum gels were analyzed in various ionic strength values ranging between 0 and 1000 mM. The rheological properties of flaxseed gum were significantly influenced by the ionic... more
Proniosomal gels or solutions of flurbiprofen were developed based on span 20 (Sp 20), span 40 (Sp 40), span 60 (Sp 60), and span 80 (Sp 80) without and with cholesterol. Nonionic surfactant vesicles (niosomes) formed immediately upon... more
This work aims to predict the evolution in freezing processes due to climate change during the 21st century and the potential damage to historic structures and archaeological remains in Europe. We have developed a range of techniques to... more
In this work, we illustrate the usefulness of cyclodextrins, namely, methyl-β-cyclodextrin (MβCD), an amorphous, methylated derivative of the natural β-cyclodextrin (βCD), as a tool to form an inclusion complex with omeprazole (OME), a... more
A solid state synthesis of calcium manganite (CaMnO3) is described where equimolecular mixtures CaCO3:MnCO3 have been subjected to mechanical stress (high energy milling) so yielding CaCO3-MnCO3 solid solutions of nanometric particle... more
