Versatile Fluorescent Carbon Dots from Citric Acid and Cysteine with Antimicrobial, Anti‑biofilm, Antioxidant, and AChE Enzyme Inhibition Capabilities
(Springer, 2021)
Nanostructured fuorescent particles derived from natural molecules were prepared by a green synthesis technique employing a microwave method. The precursors citric acid (CA) and cysteine (Cys) were used in the preparation ...
Biodiverse Properties of Tannic Acid-Based Fibers
(Springer, 2021)
Tannic acid (TA) is a plant-based polyphenolic molecule with enticing anti-oxidant, anti-bacterial, antiinflammatory and anti-cancer features, making it a valuable material in bio-medicinal applications. To establish whether ...
Poly(vinyl alcohol)-tannic Acid Cryogel Matrix as Antioxidant and Antibacterial Material
(MDPI (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute), 2022)
The biocompatible, viscoelastic properties of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) in combination
with the antimicrobial and antioxidant natural polyphenolic, tannic acid (TA), and the natural
flavonoid and antioxidant curcumin ...
Poly(Vinylamine) Derived N-Doped C-Dots with Antimicrobial and Antibiofilm Activities
(MDPI (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute), 2021)
Nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-doped C-dots) was synthesized by using poly(vinyl amine) (PVAm) as a nitrogen source and citric acid (CA) as a carbon source via the hydrothermal method. Various weight ratios of CA and PVAm ...
Chemically Cross-Linked Poly(β-Cyclodextrin) Particles as Promising Drug Delivery Materials
(Amer Chemical Soc, 2021)
One-pot synthesis of poly(β-cyclodextrin) (p(β-CD)) micro-/nanoparticles was accomplished using two different cross-linkers, divinyl sulfone (DVS) as p(β-CD)-1 and trimethylolpropane glycidyl ether (TMPGDE) as p(β-CD)-2. ...
Rod-like L-Aspartic acid-Cu(II) metal organic frameworks; Synthesis, characterization and biomedical properties
(Elsevier B.V., 2021)
L-aspartic acid (L-AA) based MOFs were prepared from acetate, chloride, nitrate, and sulfate salts of Cu(II) ions as
L-AA-Cu(II)-A,-C,-N,-S, respectively with 96.7 2.4, 89.8 3.1, 92.1 1.5, 74.6 5.2 m2/g, surface ...
Chondroitin Sulfate-Based Cryogels for Biomedical Applications

Cryogels attained from natural materials offer exceptional properties in applications such as tissue engineering. Moreover, Halloysite Nanotubes (HNT) at 1:0.5 weight ratio were embedded into CS cryogels to render additional ...
Improved Biomedical Properties of Polydopamine-Coated Carbon Nanotubes
(MDPI, 2021)
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) due to their outstanding mechanical, thermal, chemical, and optical properties were utilized as a base material and were coated with polydopamine (PDA) (PDA@CNT) via the simple self-polymerization ...
Biocompatible Glycol Chitosan Microgels as Effective Drug Carriers
(MDPI, 2023)
Glycol chitosan (GC) is a chitosan (CH) derivative with improved water solubility with regards to CH which affords significant solubility advantages. In this study, microgels of GC as p(GC) were synthesized by a microemulsion ...
Physically and Chemically Crosslinked, Tannic Acid Embedded Linear PEI-Based Hydrogels and Cryogels with Natural Antibacterial and Antioxidant Properties
(MDPI, 2023)
Linear polyethyleneimine (L-PEI) was obtained from the acidic hydrolysis of poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) and employed in the synthesis of physically crosslinked L-PEI hydrogel, PC-L-PEIH, chemically crosslinked L-PEI hydrogel, ...
