Fungi are ubiquitous and important biosphere inhabitants, and their abilities to decompose,
degrade, and otherwise transform a massive range of organic and inorganic substances …

To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study demonstrating the efficiency of Allium
sativum hydro-alcoholic extract (ASE) againstFigure growth, biofilm development, and …

Twenty years passed since the discovery of superconductivity in MgB2. Although there is
much progress, the use of superconductors, in general, and of MgB2 in particular, remains …

Herein, we report for the first time a simple strategy to design a hierarchical chemically
exfoliated magnesium diboride and guar gum network structure decorated with Ru …

Introduction: Biodeterioration is a big challenge for the preservation of cultural heritage
objects and for the community's safety, fostering the search for novel methods effective in …

Three commercial powders of MgB2 were tested in vitro by MTS and LDH cytotoxicity tests
on the HS27 dermal cell line. Depending on powders, the toxicity concentrations were …

Biodeterioration of cultural heritage is caused by different organisms capable of inducing
complex alteration processes. The present study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of …

Flow cytometry was evaluated for the first time for the microbiological characterisation of
samples collected from the surfaces of stone and mortar sculptures. The study was carried …

Bulk high density MgB 2 and a composite material made of a PLA matrix and MgB 2 powder
inclusions were in vivo tested as candidates for biodegradable materials for orthopedic …

Pristine high-density bulk disks of MgB2 with added hexagonal BN (10 wt.%) were prepared
using spark plasma sintering. The BN-added samples are machinable by chipping them into …
