Complexity of cyanobacterial exopolysaccharides: composition, structures, inducing factors and putative genes involved in their biosynthesis and assembly
Sara Pereira,Sara Pereira,Andrea Zille,Ernesto Micheletti,Pedro Moradas-Ferreira,Pedro Moradas-Ferreira,Roberto De Philippis,Paula Tamagnini,Paula Tamagnini +8 more
TL;DR: This review organizes available information on cyanobacterial EPS, including their composition, function and factors affecting their synthesis, and from the in silico analysis of available cyanob bacterial genome sequences, proposes a putative mechanism for their biosynthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasma Treatment in Textile Industry
TL;DR: In this article, Fernando Oliveira (SFRH/BD/65254/2009) and Andrea Zille (C2011-UMINHO-2C2T-01) acknowledge funding from Programa Compromisso para a Cioncia 2008, Portugal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Degradation of azo dyes by Trametes villosa laccase over long periods of oxidative conditions
TL;DR: This study highlights the fact that laccases polymerize the reaction products obtained during long-term batch decolorization processes with azo dyes, which provide unacceptable color levels in effluents, limiting the application of laccase as bioremediation agents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immobilized laccase for decolourization of reactive black 5 dyeing effluent
TL;DR: Dyeing in the enzymatically recycled effluent provided consistency of the colour with both bright and dark dyes and decolourization due to adsorption on the support and dye degradation due to the enzyme action.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preparation and characterization of polysaccharides/PVA blend nanofibrous membranes by electrospinning method
Carla Santos,Carla J. S. M. Silva,Zsófia Büttel,Rodrigo Guimarães,Sara Pereira,Paula Tamagnini,Paula Tamagnini,Andrea Zille,Andrea Zille +8 more
TL;DR: The electrospun blended PVA/EPS membrane showed better tensile mechanical properties when compared with PVA and P VA/CS, and resisted more against disintegration in the temperature range between 10 and 50 °C, and has shown an increase in chromium binding capacity of 5%.
