Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the application of vendor rationalization strategy for streamlining the supplies and manufacturing cycle time reduction in an Indian engineer-to-order (ETO) company. ETO ...
A Fast Responsive Ultraviolet Sensor from mSILAR-Processed Sn-ZnO
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2017 , Article)
Microwave-assisted successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction was employed to synthesize Sn-ZnO (tin-doped zinc oxide), and its sensitivity to ultraviolet radiation is compared with zinc oxide (ZnO). The sensing films ...
Mucoadhesive chitosan derivatives as novel drug carriers
(
Bentham Science Publishers B.V.
, 2015 , Article)
Chitosan on its own is a well-established natural polymer and is widely regarded as a biodegradable, biocompatible and nontoxic material for drug delivery applications. Although unmodified chitosan has some mucoadhesive ...
Correlating the microstructure to mechanical properties and wear behavior of an accumulative back extruded Al-Mg2Si in-situ composite
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Article)
The present work was conducted to study the effects of microstructural evolutions on the mechanical and wear behavior of an accumulative back extruded aluminum-based in-situ composite. The mechanical fragmentation and ...

Aims: Different kinds of vitamins can be used as promising candidates to mitigate the structural changes of proteins and associated cytotoxicity stimulated by NPs. Therefore, the structural changes of �-syn molecules and ...
Nitric oxide releasing chitosan-poly (vinyl alcohol) hydrogel promotes angiogenesis in chick embryo model
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
The lack of angiogenic activity is one of the serious complications of chronic wounds associated with delayed wound closure, chronic ulceration, and subsequent limb amputation. Multiple lines of evidence suggest that nitric ...
