The objective of this work was to analyze the influence of epichlorohydrin concentration and reaction time on the food-grade resistant starch production and its pasting properties by using native cassava starch from ...

This work addresses the obtaining and characterization of alginate-guar gum matrix, cross-linked with epichlorohydrin in the presence of different flexible chain polymers: polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl pyrrolidine and ...

Alginate microparticles were prepared by spray drying technique and chemically cross-linked with epichlorohydrin. Microparticles were characterized by size, surface morphology (SEM), zeta potential, thermal analysis (TGA/DSC) ...

In this work the use of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) for cross-linking of chitosan hydrogel beads was studied at the level of 1 mmol TEOS per gram of chitosan. They were compared with glutaraldehyde and epichlorohydrin ...

The adsorption of lysozyme onto alginate–guar gum bed cross-linked with epichlorohydrin has been studied in packed-bed column. Adsorption performance was evaluated with different bed heights, flow rates and initial protein ...

A synthesis of IMAC adsorbent was performed. Agarose matrix was derivatized with epichlorohydrin using different amounts of NaBH4. Furthermore, iminodiacetic acid was immobilized on the modified agarose. Finally, the ...

The adsorption of commercial trypsin (Try) onto epichlorohydrin cross-linked alginate–guar gum matrix has been studied at equilibrium in batch and in fixed bed column. Experiments were conducted to study the effect of ionic ...

Mercury (Hg) is one of the most toxic heavy metals commonly found in the global environment. Its toxicity is related to the capacity of its compounds to bioconcentrate in organisms and to biomagnifie through food chain. A ...

Electrospun mats containing cyclodextrin polymers (poly-αCD or poly-βCD) were developed to act as wound dressings showing tunable release rate of the antifungal agent fluconazole incorporated forming inclusion complexes. ...
