Journal ArticleDOI

New insight in the role of modifying ligands in the sol-gel processing of metal alkoxide precursors: A possibility to approach new classes of materials

TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarized recent literature data and presented new experimental data on the mechanisms of chemical modification, hydrolysis and polycondensation of the alkoxides and demonstrates possibilities to approach new classes of materials, exploiting these mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Advances in preservation methods: keeping biosensor microorganisms alive and active.

TL;DR: The ability of bacteria to sense their surroundings can be employed to measure the bioavailability and toxicity of pollutants, but long-term maintenance of both viability and activity of the sensor bacteria is required for the development of cell-based devices for environmental monitoring.
Journal ArticleDOI

Freeze-drying of Lactobacillus coryniformis Si3—effects of sucrose concentration, cell density, and freezing rate on cell survival and thermophysical properties

TL;DR: A co-dependency between freezing rate and formulation ingredients is found, indicating a complex system and the need to use statistical tools to detect important interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemically Triggered Biodelivery Using Metal–Organic Sol–Gel Synthesis†

TL;DR: The preparation of biocompatible aqueous titania sols and gels and their application in the encapsulation of microorganisms and pharmaceuticals with the possibility of controlled and chemically and biologically triggered release is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimisation and comparison of liquid and dry formulations of the biocontrol yeast Pichia anomala J121

TL;DR: It was found that the biocontrol activity remained intact after drying, storage and rehydration for all formulations, and the best way to formulate P. anomala was freeze-drying.
