Water vapor diffusion coefficient (WVDC) and thermal diffusivity (alpha) were determined in gelatin-starch films through photothermal techniques. The effect of different variables in the elaboration of these films, such as starch and glycerol concentrations and pH, were evaluated through the response surface methodology. The results indicated that an increase in the glycerol concentration and p...

A simple and efficient technique is described for measuring photoluminescence (PL) maps of carbon nanotubes (NTs) in the extended IR range (1-2.3 mum). It consists of preparing an NT/surfactant/gelatin film and measuring PL spectra using a combination of a tunable Ti-sapphire laser excitation and FTIR detection. This procedure has been applied to a wide range of single- and double-wall NTs unve...

OD-PEP (a Fixed dose combination of Pantoprazole and Domperidone) contains Pantoprazole which is chemically sodium 5-(difluoromethoxy)-2-[[(3,4-dimethoxy-2pyridinyl)methyl]sulfinyl]-1H-benzimidazole sesquihydrate and Domperidone which is chemically 5-chloro-1-[1-[3-(2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)propyl]-piperidin-4 -yl]1,3-dihydro-2H-benzimidazol-2-one. OD-PEP capsule is Transparent/Tr...

Biodegradable materials decompose and return to nature. This functionality can be applied derive robotic systems that are environmentally friendly. study presents a fully biodegradable soft actuator, which is one of the key elements in “green” robotics. The working actuator based on an electrohydraulic principle, similar hydraulically amplified self-healing electrostatic actuators. developed th...

In their review of gelatin tannate (GT) Ruszczyński et al [1] extensively explain tannic acid (TA) activity and they may give the impression that TA is responsible for the mechanism of action of GT and also responsible for the possible adverse effects of the product. Various in vivo studies have demonstrated that GT is a stable complex not dissociated in the small intestine. Therefore any refer...

Gelatin is a hydrocolloid widely used in food products, especially soft candy. It contains essential amino acids - except tryptophan which easily digested, not toxic, can form flexible and robust film layer to produce the right product. However, as Muslim, it must ensure that what consumed halal, from bovine gelatin. The purpose of this study was identify gelatin candy products using specific p...
