Anti-corrosion and cytotoxicity properties of inorganic surface treatments on M...
Neves, CS; Sousa, I; Freitas, MA; Moreira, L; Costa, C; Teixeira, JP; Fraga, S; Silva, RM; Silva, RF; Starykevich, M; Scharnagl, N; Zheludkevich, MLIn this work biodegradable Mg1Ca alloy underwent surface modification using hydroxyapatite (HAp), aluminium oxide (Al2O3), and treatments with phosphoric (H3PO4), hydrofluoric (HF), and acetic (CH3COOH) acids. The resulting surface-treated Mg substrates were assessed in terms of phase content and chemical composition through X-ray diffraction (XRD) and glow discharge optical emission spectrometry (GDOES). Addit...
Gold nanorods induce early embryonic developmental delay and lethality in zebra...
Mesquita, B; Lopes, I; Silva, S; Bessa, MJ; Starykevich, M; Carneiro, J; Galvão, LP; Ferreira, MGS; Tedim, J; Teixeira, JP; Fraga, SDue to their unique electronic and optical features, gold nanoparticles (AuNP) have received a great deal of attention for application in different fields such as catalysis, electronics, and biomedicine. The large-volume manufacturing predicted for future decades and the inevitable release of these substances into the environment necessitated an assessment of potential adverse human and ecological risks due to ...
