This chapter presents the synthesis, characterization, and optimization of alginate beads loaded with different amounts of montmorillonite (0, 5, 30, and 70%). Besides, their application as adsorbent material for the ...

Graphene oxide/alginate beads were prepared from lab-synthesized graphene oxide, varying its content within the beads (0.05, 0.125, and 0.25 wt.%). Ethanol-drying and lyophilization were compared as drying methods to obtain ...

Considering the antimicrobial effect of oregano essential oil, this work aimed to investigate the influence of its encapsulation in alginate beads, subjected or not to electrostatic interaction with whey proteins, wet or ...

Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) present multiple applications due to their versatility and reactivity. Thus, Ca–Al LDHs with Friedel’s salt structure (HC) have been proposed as heavy metal scavengers due to their buffering ...

Arsenic (As) is a major source of water contamination that has both natural and anthropogenic origins, so that, to remove it from water is a relevant topic. Taking into account the ease of operation, the cost of processing ...

The present study examines the agrochemical application of macrospheres prepared with chitosan and chitosan-starch blends by an easy dripping technique, using a sodium tripolyphosphate aqueous solution as the crosslinking ...

Lycopene extracted from pink grapefruit was encapsulated on Ca(II)-alginate beads with the addition of trehalose and galactomannans to improve its stability against freezing and drying. Three galactomannans of different ...
