Nowadays, access to clean water sources worldwide and particularly in Southern Africa is
inadequate because of its pollution by organic, inorganic, and microorganism contaminants …

Bacteriological contamination of water sources is a major challenge that has a detrimental
impact on both the environment and human health. This imposes the search for the most …

Herein, a novel nanobiocomposite scaffold based on modifying synthesized cross-linked
terephthaloyl thiourea-chitosan hydrogel (CTT-CS hydrogel) substrate using the extracted …

Chitosan and agarose were crosslinked to form a polymeric hydrogel and γ-alumina
nanoparticles were incorporated within the hydrogel to obtain a nanocomposite for delivery …

A novel green surface modification was successfully implemented on alumina nanoparticles
using chitosan (CS) to prevent nanoparticles' aggregation. To evaluate the surface changes …

Herein, bentonite-chitosan nanocomposite (BT-CS nanocomposite) has been synthesized
and exploited, for the first time, as a dual adsorbent for the removal of both of an anionic …

Chitosan, a versatile and bio-based amino polysaccharide, plays its role well in various
areas owing to the biocompatibility as well as biodegradability. It is an attractive candidate …

Excessive growth and rapid development put a huge burden on the environment and the
large fraction of water bodies getting polluted through industries. Though one third part of …

In this present study, a highly stable gum acacia-gold nanocomposite fabricated with food
preservative agent natamycin (GA-AuNC–NT) was prepared via green science principles …

Chitosan (CS)-based nanocomposite materials are highly prone to swelling when in contact
with water. It is therefore essential to modify them to enhance their resistance to swelling, in …
