Enzymatic grafting of synthetic molecules onto lignins provides a mild and eco-friendly alternative for the functionalization of lignocellulosic materials. In this study, laccase-mediated grafting of octadecylamine (OA) onto lignin-rich jute fabrics was investigated for enhancing the surface hydrophobicity. First, the lignins in jute fabrics were isolated and analyzed in the macromolecular leve...

At present, the existing vegetable grafting machines are cutting and operations for a single plant or row. They need to manually automatically grab seedlings, their efficiency is not significantly higher than that of manual techniques. In this paper, grafted melon seedlings were subject research. Based on splice-grafting method, we designed clamping positioning device full-tray mechanical reali...

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the stability of arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) peptide coatings on implants by measuring the amount of peptide remaining after installation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fluorescent isothiocyanate (FITC)-fixed RGD peptide was coated onto anodized titanium implants (width 4 mm, length 10 mm) using a physical adsorption method (P) or a chemical graf...

indian ber (ziziphus mauritiana) has growing type as grape and is inclined to horizental and down ward growth. if it is not trained appropriately, it would grow into very bushy with thiny shoots. hence, such trees have short lives, and are liable to pests and diseases with low yield. fruit harvesting is also difficult in bushy trees. therefore, proper pruning and training of young trees is esse...

In this paper, grafting of acrylic acid monomer on Gum tragacanth was performed. Variable of experiment included concentration of initiators and monomer, time, and temperature. Grafting efficiency was measured in the term of percentage of grafting (%G) and percentage of grafting efficiency (%E). Effectiveness of grafted gum in ferrous ion removal at different condition was assessed. According t...

The way of making cross-linkable polyethylene through silane grafting has gained much attention in recentyears because of its various advantages such as easy processing, low cost and capital investment andfavorable properties in the processed materials. This work deals with silane grafting and moisture crosslinkingof linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE). The grafting reaction was performed i...

Odorant binding proteins (OBPs) are small soluble proteins found in olfactory systems that are capable of binding several types of odorant molecules. Cantilevers based on polycrystalline diamond surfaces are very promising as chemical transducers. Here two methods were investigated for chemically grafting porcine OBPs on polycrystalline diamond surfaces for biosensor development. The first appr...

The almost forgotten method of intermingled skin grafting of allogeneic material with small autogeneic islets, once developed in the People's Republic of China, proves the feasibility of permanent healing of even extensive burn wounds, at low cost, and therefore an effective treatment possibility in poorer countries, as well as under conditions of a burn disaster. Intermingled skin grafting obt...
