1. Morphology Behavior of Copper Films Deposited after Wet Surface Treatment on Polished Alumina
In this paper, a pre-treatment process for electroless copper (Cu) deposition on the polished alumina (Al2O3) 99.9% and the behavior of Cu plating by electroless process after Al2O3 surface treatment were explored. Our work was carried out by changing the roughness of Al2O3 through micro-etching (coarsening), nucleation its surface by a two-step method (sens

2. Trypanocidal Activity and Increased Solubility of Benznidazole Incorporated in PEG 4000 and Its Derivatives
Selecting a polymer depends on its characteristics, the properties of the drug and of the remaining ingredients in the formulation. The drug, when incorporated into a polymeric matrix, can show several advantages when compared with its conventional form. In this context, this work describes the preparation and characterization of polyethylene glycol (PEG 400

3. Hybrid Hydrogels Based on Polyethylene Glycol Bioconjugated with Silylated-Amyloidogenic Peptides
Hybrid-peptide hydrogel arrangements are a promising alternative to obtaining biocompatible structures at the nanoscopic scale. In this work, a new class of hybrid hydrogels was obtained through the sol-gel process based on the reaction between an amyloid-like octapeptide sequence [RF]4 (where R = arginine and F = phenylalanine) covalently bonded with glycin

4. Atomic force microscopy evidences of bacterial cell damage caused by propolis extracts on E. coli and S. aureus
Abstract The interaction of the aqueous extract of green propolis with the bacterial envelope was investigated using atomic force microscopy on E. coli and S. aureus, as Gram-negative and Gram-positive model microorganisms. The bacteria were incubated in the extracts with variable proportions of water/ethanol, i.e., in different concentrations of total pheno

5. Synthesis of New Phenolic-Schiff Base and Its Application as Antioxidant in Soybean Biodiesel and Corrosion Inhibitor in AISI 1020 Carbon Steel
New Schiff base compound N, N’-bis-(4-hexadecanate)-salicylethylenediamine (named IM) was synthesized, and characterized via infrared and nuclear magnetic ressonance spectroscopies. IM was tested as corrosion inhibitor and antioxidant in soybean biodiesel. Corrosion studies were developed with AISI 1020 carbon steel in a three-step accelerated corrosion as

6. PMMA-SiO2 Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Coating Application to Ti-6Al-4V Alloy Prepared through the Sol-Gel Method
Siloxane-poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) hybrid was synthesized based on the sol-gel method and applied to Ti-6Al-4V through dip-coating. The structural feature of the hybrid was subjected to Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and thermogravimetric analysis (TG); its morphological properties were analyzed through scanning electron microscope (SE

8. Influence of cigarette smoke combined with different toothpastes on enamel erosion
Abstract: This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the effect of different toothpastes on dental enamel subjected to an erosive cycle with and without exposure to cigarette smoke. Bovine enamel specimens were randomly allocated into 12 groups (n = 12). For the in vitro simulation of smoking, half the groups underwent an exposure cycle of 20 cigarettes per day f

9. Influence of doping with Sm3+ on photocatalytic reuse of ZnO thin films obtained by spin coating
ABSTRACT The difficulty in the powder reuse favors the study of materials in the form of thin films. ZnO based films have high photocatalytic potential. In this work, ZnO:xSm3+ (x = 0, 1, 2 and 4 %mol) thin films were prepared by spin coating method. The resins obtained to manufacture the thin films were prepared by complex polymerization method. The samples

10. Effect of grape seed extract-containing phosphoric acid formulations on bonding to enamel and dentin
Abstract The aim was to evaluate the effect of 2% grape seed extract (GSE) containing phosphoric acid (PhA) on the bond strength to enamel and dentin. The control group was 37% PhA. The following three PhA formulations with 2% GSE and 20% ethanol were obtained: GSE5 = 5% PhA; GSE10 = 10% PhA; and GSE20 = 20% PhA. The enamel and dentin surfaces of molars were

11. Electrospinning synthesis and assessment of physicochemical properties and biocompatibility of cobalt nitrate fibers for wound healing applications
Abstract: The aim of this study was to develop polyurethane (PU) wound dressing incorporated with cobalt nitrate using electrospinning technique. The morphology analysis revealed that the developed composites exhibited reduced fiber and pore diameter than the pristine PU. The electrospun membranes exhibited average porosity in the range of 67% - 71%. Energy-

12. Blood compatibility assessments of electrospun polyurethane nanocomposites blended with megni oil for tissue engineering applications
Abstract: Tissue engineering holds as a prominent technique to repair or replace the damaged human parts to recreate its native function. In this research, a novel scaffold based on polyurethane (PU) comprising megni oil was electrospun for tissue engineering applications. The obtained polyurethane blended with megni oil nanofibers were characterized by scan
