Development and Characterization of Glandless Cottonseed Meal/Pullulan Fine Fiber Mats:(ANOAJ)-Lupine Publishers


Development and Characterization of Glandless Cottonseed Meal/Pullulan Fine Fiber Mats by

Karen Lozano in ANOAJ in Lupine publishers.


Glandless cotton seed meal (GCSM) extracted from cotton is composed of nearly 50 percent protein. For about every 100kg of cotton fiber produced the cotton plant yields approximately 160kg of cottonseed. GCSM presents a unique opportunity to be used in the food industry. In this study, GCSM based polymer composite edible fine fibers were successfully produced using pullulan as the polymeric base. GCSM solutions were developed and spun as fine fibers using a centrifugal spinning technology. A synergistic approach among fiber output and fiber diameter was pursued by modifying angular velocity and concentration of pullulan and GCSM within an aqueous solution. The developed fibers show average fiber diameters of 720nm with a standard deviation of 200nm. Thermo-physical analysis was conducted. The opportunity to develop GCSM fine fiber mats opens up potential applications in food packaging and drug delivery systems to mention some.

Application of Nanomaterials as Antimicrobial Agents: A Review:(ANOAJ)-Lupine Publishers



Application of Nanomaterials as Antimicrobial Agents: A Review by Muhammad Ali in ANOAJ in Lupine Publishers.

Bacterial strains resistant to the antibiotics now in use have becomes serious public health problems that increases the need to develop new bactericidal materials. Consequently, there is a strong demand for developing novel strategies and new materials that can cope with these problems. The emergence of nanotechnology has created many new antimicrobial options. The small size of the nanoparticles is very suitable for carrying out antimicrobial biological operations. Metals such as silver, zinc, copper and iron nanoparticle types have shown tremendous potential as bactericidal and fungicidal elements, demonstrating their potential as efficient antibiotic reagents in wound care and related medical issues. These nanomaterials displayed antimicrobial activity against numerous pathogenic viral and bacterial species. Nanomaterials today are a promising platform for alternative measures to control bacterial infections as they offer prolonged antimicrobial activity with negligible toxicity, compared with small molecular antimicrobial agents that display short term activity and environmental toxicity. The antimicrobial nanoparticle physically destroys cell membranes of the organism which prevent development of drug-resistance microbes.

Potential of Carbon Nanotubes in Enhance of Photocatalyst Activity:(ANOAJ)-Lupine Publishers


Potential of Carbon Nanotubes in Enhance of Photocatalyst Activity by Emad Yousif in ANOAJ in Lupine Publishers.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have generated huge activity in most areas of science and engineering due to their remarkable physical and chemical properties. No previous materials have displayed the combination of superlative mechanical, thermal and electronic properties attributed to them. These properties make nanotubes ideal, not only for a wide range of applications but as a test bed for fundamental science. This review highlighted some of the properties of these nanotubes and also their role as supports materials in enhance of photocatalytic activity of nanocrystals for removal of contaminants.

Printable Self-Assembled Peptide Bio-Inks: Promising Future Applications in Nanomedicine :(ANOAJ) - Lupine Publishers

Printable Self-Assembled Peptide Bio-Inks: Promising Future Applications in Nanomedicine  by

Apurba K Das in ANOAJ in Lupine Publishers.


In the current era of research and development, nanotechnology and additive manufacturing play a key role in the industry as well as in the healthcare applications. In order to explore medicinal applications, researchers focus on the design and synthesis of biocompatible nanoparticles and nanomaterials. Molecular self-assembly is a powerful approach for the fabrication of supramolecular functional materials. Self-assembly offers the integration of nanotechnology with the additive manufacturing for the fabrication of three dimensional (3D) printed objects. The cross-linked peptide hydrogels are gaining attention as potential bioink for the 3D bio-fabrication. The current article focuses on the scope of the printable peptide containing hydrogels as bio-ink in the fields of nanomedicine, drug delivery and tissue engineering.

Nanotechnology in Cancer: an Overview on Importance of Patient’s Screening in Nanomedicine Based Combinational Therapies by Bikash Medhi:(ANOAJ)-Lupine Publishers



Nanotechnology in Cancer: an Overview on Importance of Patient’s Screening in Nanomedicine Based Combinational Therapies by Bikash Medhi in ANOAJ in Lupine Publishers

Targeting cancer using nanomedicine is not a new concept. Earlier focus was on targeted therapy and then concept came of combinational therapy. Along with the use of combinational therapies, Pre-selection screening of the patients using molecular approach is equally important to achieve the maximum benefit to the cancer patients.

Solar Radiation Energy Issues on Nanoparticle Shapes in the Potentiality of Water Based Cu, Al2O3 and SWCNTs:(ANOAJ)-Lupine Publishers


Solar Radiation Energy Issues on Nanoparticle Shapes in the Potentiality of Water Based Cu, Al2O3 and SWCNTs by R Kandasamy in ANOAJ in Lupine Publishers.

Energy is an extensive view for industrial advancement. Solar thermal energy is designed by light and heat which is radiated by the sun, in the form of electromagnetic radiation. Solar energy is the highest promptly and sufficiently applicable authority of green energy. Impact of nanoparticle shapes on the Hiemenz nano fluid (water based Cu, Al2O3 and SWCNTs) flow over a porous wedge surface in view of solar radiation energy has been analyzed. The three classical form of nanoparticle shapes are registered into report, i.e. sphere , cylinder and laminar . Nanoparticles in the water based Cu, Al2O3 and SWCNTs have been advanced as a means to boost solar collector energy through explicit absorption of the entering solar energy. The controlling partial differential equations (PDEs) are remodeled into ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by applying dependable accordance alteration and it is determined numerically by executing Runge Kutta Fehlberg method with shooting technique. It is anticipated that the lamina shape SWCNTs have dynamic heat transfer attainments in the flow improvement over a porous wedge surface as compared with the other nanoparticle shapes in different nano fluid flow regime.
