Dietary Curcumin Nanoparticles Improve Growth Performance, Oxidative Status and Immune Response of European Seabass (<i>Dicentrarchus Labrax</i>)
Published 2024“…Fish fed with CURNPS at various levels exhibited remarkable increase in digestive enzymes (amylase and lipase), immune markers (immunoglobulin G (IgG), lysozyme and phagocytic indices), and antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx)). A noticeable decrease (P<0.05) in malondialdehyde (MDA) and considerable upregulation of hepatic insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) and interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) mRNA levels were found in CURNPs-supplemented fish in a dose-dependent manner. …”

Nanospace-engineered carbons for reversible storage of natural gas and hydrogen
Published 2011“…Early results on optimization of gravim. excess adsorption for undoped carbons, with KOH activation: 1.Excess adsorption and gravimetric storage capacity both increase with increasing KOH:C ratio and activation temperature. Excess adsorption dominated by KOH:C ratio. 2.Volumetric storage capacity decreases with increasing activation temperature. 3. 2.5K activated at 700 oC has record volumetric storage capacity of 132 g CH4/liter carbon at 35 bar and 22 oC (200 V/V, 110% of DOE target of 118 g/liter). …”
