“…Although NanoMIL-89 did not significantly affect the CO, SV, ventricular volume, and EF functions, a minor significant dose-dependent increase was observed in the treated ZF embryos heartbeats (> 190 bpm). A similar effect was reported in a previous study by Rajesh et al, where iron oxide nanocomposites were shown to induce tachycardia in ZF embryos in a dose-dependent manner [57] . Fig.…”

“…Hatching is a crucial stage of ZF embryogenesis, and a delayed hatching rate indicates a stress response due to a possible disturbance in the anatomy or physiology of the ZF embryos development [55] , [56] . In line with other studies, the organic linkers and iron oxide composites of MOFs nanoparticles can impact the activity of the chorionase enzyme and cause an osmotic disturbance, which in turn contributes to the delay of the ZF hatching process [21] , [26] , [57] . Moreover, the adherence and agglomeration of nanoMIL-89 on the chorion surface cause oxygen depletion and hypoxia, which may delay the hatching of ZF embryos and development [21] , [58] .…”

“… 118 Bacterial nanocellulose was also employed as a virus antigen carrier for vaccination and an improvement in immune-related genes was observed. 119 Additionally, chitosan-based materials have been used for different medical purposes like wound healing, 120 drug delivery, 121 and anticancer activity. 122 Nevertheless, it is difficult to conclude that polymers are always non-toxic.…”

Adsorption is alternative technique for recovery of nutrient resources with no/less secondary pollution. PNC adsorbents are effective for removal and recovery of nutrient resources, and reusing nutrients as fertilizer could prevent eutrophication.
“…Polymer composites have found applications in a large variety of areas, ranging from the generation of portable electronic devices and high-speed integrated circuits ( Deshmukh et al, 2017 ; Zhang et al, 2002 ) to the development of drug delivery systems ( Lai et al, 2018 ; Lopez-Lugo et al, 2021 ; Rajesh et al, 2021 ). This is partially attributed to good processability and high structural flexibility of polymer composites ( Chen et al, 2015 ; Choudhary and Sengwa, 2017 ; Dang et al, 2012 ; Xu et al, 2017 ).…”
Polymer composites have found applications in diverse areas, ranging from the manufacturing of portable electronic devices to the fabrication of bioactive agent carriers. This article reports the preparation of composite films consisting of sodium alginate (SA) and lithium silver oxide (LAO) nanoparticles. The films are generated by solution casting; whereas the nanoparticles are fabricated by using the hydrothermal method. The effects of the nanoparticles on the morphological, thermal, and dielectric properties of the films are examined by using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Electrical measurements are also performed to determine the dielectric constant (ε′), dielectric loss (ε″), AC conductivity (σac), electrical moduli (M′ and M″), and impedance (Z' and Z″). The composite films are shown to be crystalline in nature, with nanoparticles having a diameter of 30–45 nm effectively disseminated in the polymer matrix. They also display good dielectric properties. Our results suggest that the films warrant further exploration for possible use in microelectronic applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
