Journal ArticleDOI
Sustainable technologies for water purification from heavy metals: review and analysis
TL;DR: The current state-of-the-art of available technologies for water purification are reviewed and their field of application for heavy metal ion removal is discussed, as heavy metal ions are the most harmful and widespread contaminants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding foods as soft materials
TL;DR: In this review, the current understanding of food science is discussed, by considering established SCM methods as well as emerging techniques and theoretical approaches.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-assembling peptide and protein amyloids: from structure to tailored function in nanotechnology
Gang Wei,Zhiqiang Su,Nicholas P. Reynolds,Paolo Arosio,Ian W. Hamley,Ehud Gazit,Raffaele Mezzenga +6 more
TL;DR: This review will discuss recent progress made in the field of functional and artificial amyloids and highlight connections between protein/peptide folding, unfolding and aggregation mechanisms, with the resulting amyloid structure and functionality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding amyloid aggregation by statistical analysis of atomic force microscopy images
Jozef Adamcik,Jin-Mi Jung,Jérôme Flakowski,Paolo De Los Rios,Giovanni Dietler,Raffaele Mezzenga +5 more
TL;DR: It is shown that different stages of amyloid aggregation can be examined by performing a statistical polymer physics analysis of single-molecule atomic force microscopy images of heat-denatured beta-lactoglobulin fibrils.
Journal ArticleDOI
The self-assembly, aggregation and phase transitions of food protein systems in one, two and three dimensions
Raffaele Mezzenga,Peter Fischer +1 more
TL;DR: This review will tackle the current understanding of protein aggregation in the framework of foods, which is possibly one of the broadest contexts, yet is of tremendous daily relevance.
