Book ChapterDOI

Bioplastics from agro-wastes for food packaging applications

TL;DR: In this article, the preparation of new functional biopolymers for packaging based on extracted cellulose, which exhibits broadly tunable thermomechanical properties and biodegradation, is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermodynamic stability and relaxation studies of small, triaza-macrocyclic Mn(II) chelates

TL;DR: The synthesis and characterization of three new triazadicarboxylate-type ligands and their Mn(2+) chelates and their thermodynamic stability is lower than that of the corresponding NOTA analogues, consistent with the decreased number of coordinating carboxylates groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gallium labeled NOTA-based conjugates for peptide receptor-mediated medical imaging.

TL;DR: The (67)Ga-labeled conjugates proved to have high kinetic stability and showed a weak but specific binding to the receptors in a U87MG-glioblastoma cell line.
Journal ArticleDOI

Triaza-based amphiphilic chelators: Synthetic route, in vitro characterization and in vivo studies of their Ga(III) and Al(III) chelates

TL;DR: The synthesis and in vitro and in vivo studies of a series of micelles-forming Ga(III) chelates targeted for the liver are described, showing higher liver uptake for [(67)Ga](NOTAC8) in comparison to [(67]Ga]( NOTAC6), consistent with a longer alpha-alkyl chain and a higher lipophilicity.
