Iron oxide nanoparticles (FexOy-NPs) are currently being applied in numerous high-tech sectors, such as in chemical sectors for catalysis and in the medical sector for drug delivery systems and antimicrobial purposes, due ...

This study aims to evaluate the effect of gum content and pH on the thermal gelation of mixed egg yolk/κ-carrageenan (EY/κC) dispersions, monitored by linear viscoelastic measurements. Heat processing induces dramatic ...

The electrospinning process is an emerging and relatively easy technique to prepare three-dimensional matrices with micro- and nanofibers. To achieve it, aqueous polymer solutions from synthetic or natural polymers are ...

Biomaterials have been used since ancient times. However, it was not until the late 1960s when their development prospered, increasing the research on them. In recent years, the study of biomaterials has focused mainly on ...

El objetivo del trabajo ha consistido en la caracterización del proceso de gelificación térmica de dispersiones de albumen de huevo mediante ensayos viscoelásticos dinámicos. Las variables estudiadas han sido el tiempo de ...

The objective of this study was to assess the influence of reducing pH from its native value on the heat-induced gelation behaviour of egg yolk by monitoring its linear viscoelastic properties. Three acids differing in ...

Porcine blood is a by-product of the meat industry, and it could be considered as a potential raw material in the formulation of biodegradable materials with great water absorption capacity, due to its rich composition in ...

Food industry is highly interested in the development of healthier formulations of oil-in-water emulsions, stabilized by plant proteins instead of egg or milk proteins. These emulsions would avoid allergic issues or animal ...

The creation of skeletal muscle tissue in vitro is a major topic of interest today in the field of biomedical research, due to the lack of treatments for muscle loss due to traumatic accidents or disease. For this reason, ...

Composite materials based on proteins and carbohydrates normally offer improved water solubility, biodegradability, and biocompatibility, which make them attractive for a wide range of applications. Soy protein isolate ...
