This research assesses the antifibrotic potential of a sodium alginate (SA) hydrogel loaded with extracellular vesicles (EVs) from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and PAP (p38α antagonistic ...

IF you’ve ever spotted the little silica gel packets that come inside new handbags or with new shoes DON'T chuck them away. The tiny sachets can actually be extremely useful around your home ...

To obtain the composite was used alginic acid sodium salt from brown algae ... as shown in Figure 7c. Silica-alginate hybrid hydrogels prepared by a sol-gel were also performed by Hernández-González ...

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. We're all familiar with silica gel packets — the small bagged packets found in vitamin bottles, shoe boxes, and electronics, along with ...

The team successfully synthesized a novel hydrogel electrolyte that, when paired with a Prussian blue cathode, achieves outstanding energy density and cyclability in sodium-zinc hybrid ion batteries.

A recent article published in Advanced Materials introduced unique biomimetic hydrogels fabricated from sustainable cellulosic polymers crosslinked by colloidal silica particles. These hydrogels ...

The researchers’ new gel adds an innovative layer of protection — silica particles. After water in the gel evaporates, these silica particles form a white, foam-like barrier that continues to ...

A study published on Science Direct shows that borate bioactive glass (BBG), particularly when integrated with sodium alginate (SA), leads to enhanced ... and stability of the printed constructs.

So what does the second life of silica gel packs look like? That makes sense ― after all, the forbidden contents of the paper bag are actually silica gel, a compound made from silicon dioxide.

SEM analysis revealed the uniform distribution of UiO-66-NH 2 nanoparticles within the sodium alginate matrix, confirming the successful synthesis of the composite hydrogel. Surface modification with ...
