Machine learning modeling and response surface methodology driven antioxidant and anticancer activities of chitosan nanoparticle-mediated extracts of Bacopa monnieri.

International journal of biological macromolecules
This study investigates the potential of chitosan nanoparticles (CNPs) in enhancing the bioavailability and efficacy of Bacopa monnieri extracts, known for their neuroprotective, antioxidant, and anticancer properties. Different concentrations of CNP...

Deep eutectic solvent-modified polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan thin film membrane for dye adsorption: Machine learning modeling, experimental, and density functional theory calculations.

International journal of biological macromolecules
The polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan (PVA/CS) thin film membrane was modified using a deep eutectic solvent (DES) to enhance its adsorption capability and mechanical strength for the removal of brilliant green (BG) dye. Batch adsorption experiments, machin...

Antibacterial effects of thyme oil loaded solid lipid and chitosan nano-carriers against Salmonella Typhimurium and Escherichia coli as food preservatives.

PloS one
OBJECTIVES: Escherichia coli and Salmonella Typhimurium are frequent causes of foodborne illness affecting many people annually. In order to develop natural antimicrobial agents against these microorganisms, thyme oil (TO) was considered as active an...

Enhancing resource recovery from acid whey through chitosan-based pretreatment and machine learning optimization.

Bioresource technology
Acid whey, a dairy byproduct with low pH and high organic content, presents disposal challenges but also potential for resource recovery. In this study, chitosan gel was synthesized and evaluated for turbidity reduction of acid whey. Machine learning...

Design and synthesis of a new recyclable nanohydrogel based on chitosan for Deltamethrin removal from aqueous solutions: Optimization and modeling by RSM-ANN.

International journal of biological macromolecules
In this study, a new magnetic biocompatible hydrogel was synthesized as an adsorbent for Deltamethrin pesticide removal. The optimal conditions and adsorption process of Deltamethrin by chitosan/polyacrylic acid/FeO nanocomposite hydrogel was studied...

A Bio-Inspired Magnetic Soft Robotic Fish for Efficient Solar-Energy Driven Water Purification.

Small methods
Solar-driven water evaporation is a promising solution for global water scarcity but is still facing challenges due to its substantial energy requirements. Here, a magnetic soft robotic bionic fish is developed by combining magnetic nanoparticles (Fe...

Synthesis and characterization of Fe(III)-doped beta-cyclodextrin-grafted chitosan cryogel beads for adsorption of diclofenac in aqueous solutions: Adsorption experiments and deep-learning modeling.

International journal of biological macromolecules
Diclofenac (DCF) is frequently detected in aquatic environments, emphasizing the critical need for its efficient removal globally. Here, we present the synthesis of Fe(III)-doped β-CD-grafted chitosan (Fe/β-CD@CS) cryogel beads designed for adsorbing...

Deep Learning Used with a Colorimetric Sensor Array to Detect Indole for Nondestructive Monitoring of Shrimp Freshness.

ACS applied materials & interfaces
Intelligent colorimetric freshness indicator is a low-cost way to intuitively monitor the freshness of fresh food. A colorimetric strip sensor array was prepared by -dimethylaminocinnamaldehyde (PDL)-doped poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and chitosan (Chit...

Chitosan-based magnetic bioadsorbent beads from eucalyptus sawdust waste for the Direct Violet-51 dye remediation: Eco-friendly strategy and statistical optimization.

International journal of biological macromolecules
In the present study, a new application was proposed for the eucalyptus sawdust waste, which is an environmental passive. Three adsorbent materials composed of chitosan (CS), sawdust (CSW), and magnetic beads (CSWF) were developed and used for the Di...
