In this work the preparation of polyamide 12 (PA12) based composites reinforced with pristine and surface-modified carbon nanotubes is reported. A qualitative and quantitative evaluation of multi-walled carbon nanotube functionalization with oxygen containing reactive groups achieved by different procedures of
High molecular weight biodegradable polyesters were prepared from sebacic acid, ethylene glycol and butylene glycol through a simple non-solvent polycondensation with a low toxicity catalyst. The successful synthesis of the polyesters was confirmed by gel permeation chromatography, (1)H-nuclear magnetic resonance
Sebacic (decanedioic) acid is a dicarboxylic acid proposed recently as an alternative energy substrate in total parenteral nutrition. In this paper, binding of sebacic acid to defatted human plasma albumin, also in the presence of decanoic acid, was studied by
Molecular genetics and metabolism, 78(4), 247-249 (2003-04-23)
Multiple acyl-CoA-dehydrogenase deficiency (MADD) or glutaric aciduria type II (GAII) are a group of metabolic disorders due to deficiency of either electron transfer flavoprotein (ETF) or electron transfer flavoprotein ubiquinone oxidoreductase (ETF-QO). We report the clinical features and biochemical and
Tissue engineering. Part A, 18(1-2), 137-146 (2011-09-10)
Tissue engineering constitutes a promising alternative technology to transplantation medicine by creating viable substitutes for failing tissues or organs. The ability to manipulate and reconstitute tissue function has tremendous clinical implications and will most likely play a key role in
