(2017)The single-cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE) or Comet assay is a technique widely employed in environmental and radiation toxicology as well as in cancer research with the aim of assessing DNA damage and repair by measuring ... -
Chemical characterisation, antibacterial activity, and (nano)silver transformation of commercial personal care products exposed to household greywater
(2019)The objective of this study was to test the original speciation of silver (Ag) in eight different commercially available personal care products and investigate the chemical transformation of Ag during exposure to two types ... -
Chemical composition and bioactive properties of: Sanguisorba minor Scop. under Mediterranean growing conditions
(2019)Sanguisorba minor Scop. is a perennial plant native to the Mediterranean region which exhibits several medicinal activities. In the present study, plant growth, chemical composition, and antitumor and antimicrobial properties ... -
The chemical composition, nutritional value and antimicrobial properties of: Abelmoschus esculentus seeds
(2017)Okra is a vegetable crop usually used for its immature pods. The harvest stage (fruit size) depends on consumers' preferences and the fruit that does not meet market requirements is being disposed of. Considering the short ... -
CNT-grafted glass fibers as a smart tool for epoxy cure monitoring, UV-sensing and thermal energy harvesting in model composites
(2016)A 'hierarchical' reinforcement of glass fibers (GFs) chemically grafted with multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) has been utilized for epoxy cure monitoring, UV-sensing, and thermal energy harvesting in model composites. ... -

(2016)This review summarizes the recent research in the field of inorganic engineered nanoparticle development with direct or potential interest for drinking water treatment. The incorporation of engineered nanoparticles into ... -
Is it scientifically justifiable to exclude wine and/or unfermented grape derivatives from the diet of consumers with or at risk of developing type-2 diabetes?
(2020)The abuse of alcoholic beverages has been associated with an increased risk of chronic-degenerative diseases, including diabetes mellitus, so that there is a general diffidence towards the low/moderate consumption of wine ... -
Leaf parts from Greek artichoke genotypes as a good source of bioactive compounds and antioxidants
(2017)Globe artichoke is an important vegetable in the Mediterranean diet. However, the marketable part of the plant constitutes a small portion of its total crop biomass and large amounts of waste are produced during its ... -
Modeling atomic force microscopy and shell mechanical properties estimation of coated microbubbles
(2020)We present an extensive comparison with experimental data of our theoretical/numerical model for the static response of coated microbubbles (MBs) subject to compression from an atomic force microscope (afm). The mechanics ... -
