« Cellulose Acetate: Properties, Uses and Preparation presents data on thermodynamic characteristics (heat capacity, enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs function) from 4 to 580 K cellulose acetates and cellulose nitrates, as well as the major plasticizers for these polymers, the temper…
Macromolecular structures, such as lignin and cellulose, are important components of soil organic carbon, the major terrestrial global carbon pool. The degradation of these macromolecules, including lignin and cellulose, in plant-derived soil organic matter, is important to the …
This volume reports the latest advances in the science & technology related to the conversion of lignocellulosics. A portion of the volume is devoted to molecular biology of the enzymes & the microbes involved in the conversion. Hydrolysis of cellulose continues to be of prime i…
In this thesis, experimental results and their analysis are presented on the phase transformations of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) under two different treatments. First, MCC was subjected to ball milling in air for different times tBMi = 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60 and 120 minutes…
This study is an exploratory and descriptive study of shopping malls in two cultures. The purpose of this dissertation is twofold: (1) to explore and describe the conditions of malls relevant to people’s perception of space and their interactions with others; and (2) to investig…
This study is aimed to reconstruct the Holocene temperature history in eastern Canada derived from a 6m peat section at Mer Bleue Bog, near Ottawa, Ontario. Geochemical, image and time-series analysis methods such as oxygen isotope analysis of plant cellulose (δ18Ocel), digital …
Lipid carriers such as emulsions and liposomes have been widely studied as carriers for different nutraceuticals. However, lipid carriers' physicochemical instability results in the leakage of loaded nutraceuticals and the low solubility into the digestion medium, thus reducing …
Günümüzün en yaygın sağlık problemlerinden biri doku kaybı, yaralanması ve zedelenmesidir. Birçok hasta uygun doku nakli için beklemektedir. Aynı hastadan doku alıp yine o hastaya emplante etmek veya ölü bir canlıdan doku alıp hastaya emplante etmenin ekonomik olmaması, bağışçı …
