Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNanocrystalline Powders of Alkaline-Earth Phosphates as Precursors for BioceramicsParhi Purnendu, A. Ramanan, Alok R. RayBone is a nanocomposite made of calcium phosphates and collagen. Collagen has a typical fibrous structure, with diameter ranging from 100 nm to 2 μm. It is suggested that calcium hydroxyapatite, Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 in the size range 5-50 nm embedded in the collagen framework provides mechanical strength to bone. Among calcium phosphates, apatites are found to be the most suitable for … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,543 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTrends and Innovations in Sterilization of Ready-to-Eat Food Products: Challenges and Future DirectionsDaimon Syukri, Rini, Risa Meutia Fiana et al.The growing demand for Ready-To-Eat (RTE) food products has significantly shaped the industry. RTE foods, including meat, dairy and vegetable-based products, offer convenience and practicality but are highly susceptible to contamination by pathogenic microorganisms. Sterilization, an essential process to eliminate viable pathogenic microorganisms, including spores, has become an important solution to ensure food safety and extend shelf life. Based on … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 2 · 20 Mar 2025 · 5,946 accessesView PDFCite
