Oxidative Degradation of Thermoplastic Starch Induced by UV Radiation
(Tech Science Press, 2019-04)
Among biopolymers, thermoplastic starch (TPS) is a good candidate to obtain biomaterials because of its natural origin, biodegradable character, and processability. Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation causes significant ...
Influence of BiOI content on the photocatalytic activity of Bi2WO6/BiOI/allophane composites and molecular modeling studies of acetaldehyde adsorption
(Elsevier Science, 2017-12)
As a major indoor volatile organic compound, acetaldehyde is considered to be toxic when applied externally for prolonged periods; it is an irritant and a probable carcinogen. In this work, Bi2WO6/BiOI/allophane (BW/BI/A) ...
Phototunable response in caged polymer brushes

Zinc induced structural changes in the intrinsically disordered BDNF Met prodomain confer synaptic elimination
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-08)
Human brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) encodes a protein product consisting of a C-terminal mature domain (mature BDNF) and an N-terminal prodomain, which is an intrinsically disordered protein. A common single ...
Structural conformation and self‐assembly process of p31‐43 gliadin peptide in aqueous solution. Implications for celiac disease
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-10)
Celiac Disease (CeD) is a highly prevalent chronic immune-mediated enteropathy developed in genetically predisposed individuals after ingestion of a group of wheat proteins (called gliadins and glutenins). The 13mer α-gliadin ...
Nanoparticles assembled from mixtures of whey protein isolate and soluble soybean polysaccharides. Structure, interfacial behavior and application on emulsions subjected to freeze-thawing
(Elsevier, 2019-10)
In this article, the freeze-thaw stability of emulsions prepared with nanoparticles assembled from mixtures of whey protein isolate (WPI, 2.0% w/w)and soluble soybean polysaccharides (SSPS, 0.5% w/w)was assessed. The ...
Curcumin-Loaded Liquid Crystalline Systems for Controlled Drug Release and Improved Treatment of Vulvovaginal Candidiasis
(American Chemical Society, 2018-10)
Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is the most common infection caused by Candida albicans and greatly reduces the quality of life of women affected by it. Due to the ineffectiveness of conventional treatments, there is growing ...
Immunocytochemical and morphological effects of shortterm stimulation of cultured astrocytesEfectos inmunocitoquímicos y morfológicos de la estimulación a corto plazo de cultivos astrocitarios
(Fundación Revista Medicina, 2000-01)
Se recurrió al análisis de imagen a nivel de microscopía óptica y a la caracterización ultraestructural por microscopía electrónica de transmisión, para evaluar la diferenciación celular en jóvenes cultivos astrocitarios ...
A glucose-targeted mixed micellar formulation outperforms Genexol in breast cancer cells
(Elsevier Science, 2017-05)
Breast cancer represents the top cancer among women, accounting 521.000 deaths per year. Development of targeted nanomedicines to breast cancer tissues represents a milestone to reduce chemotherapy side effects. Taking ...
Structural and thermodynamic studies of two centrin isoforms from Blastocladiella emersonii upon calcium binding
(Elsevier, 2013-12)
Centrins are calcium-binding proteins associated with microtubules organizing centers. Members of two divergent subfamilies of centrins were found in the aquatic fungus Blastocladiella emersonii, contrasting with the ...
