Journal ArticleDOI
Electrochemical sensors based on platinum electrodes modified with hybrid inorganic–organic coatings for determination of 4-nitrophenol and dopamine
TL;DR: In this article, new electrochemical sensors for dopamine (DA) and phenol derivative, based on hybrid inorganic redox material-organic conducting polymers, were developed, which exhibited a linear response over wide range of 4-nitrophenol concentrations from 30 to 90μM, with a detection limit of 8.23μM (s/n = 3).
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The capacity of the prepared wound dressings to act as implantable bioresorbable scaffolds that accelerates wounds healing along with an excellent biocompatibility, lack of cytotoxicity and a good antibacterial activity, make these materials promising and safe candidates for wound dressing, especially in burn patients.
Book ChapterDOI
Nanopesticides: a new paradigm in crop protection
TL;DR: Throughout the chapter, the most significant achievements in the field are illustrated by carefully selected up-to-date examples, in each case highlighting the superior performances of nanopesticides relative to their bulk counterparts in terms of selectivity, efficiency, and reduction of the harmful environmental impact.
