Edible olive drupes (from Olea europaea L.) are a high-value food commodity with an increasing production trend over the past two decades. In an attempt to prevent fraud issues and ensure quality, the International Olive Council (IOC) issued guidelines for
Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) are known for effective adhesion, growth, and differentiation of bone, muscle, and cardiac cells. CNTs can provide excellent mechanical and electrical properties for cell scaffolding; however, loose CNTs can cause in-vivo toxicity. To suppress this risk, our

Quantitative in vivo oximetry has been reported using (19) F MRI in conjunction with reporter molecules, such as perfluorocarbons, for tissue oxygenation (pO(2) ). Recently, hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO) has been proposed as a promising alternative reporter molecule for (1) H MRI-based

Simvastatin acid (SVA) has been reported to stimulate bone formation with increased expression of BMP-2. Therefore, immobilization of SVA onto dental implants is expected to promote osteogenesis at the bone tissue/implant interface. The aim of this study was to evaluate
The development of thermoplastic materials based on starch has become a promising alternative for reducing plastic waste. To this end, plasma treatments were used to enhance the hydrophobicity of cornstarch films. Cornstarch films plasticized using glycerol and distilled water were
