Structure and properties of nanocomposite films based on sodium caseinate and nanocellulose fibers
(Elsevier, 2011-03)
Films made from sodium caseinate and nanocellulose were prepared by dispersing the fibrils into film forming solutions, casting and drying. Composite films were less transparent and had a more hydrophilic surface than neat ...
The Role of Galectin-3 and ST2 in Cardiology: A Short Review
(Molecular Diversity Preservation International, 2021-08)
Galectin-3 is a lectin that binds beta-galactosides. It is involved in cardiac remodeling and fibrosis through the activation of macrophages and fibroblasts. ST2 is secreted by myocardial cells due to cardiac overload. ...
