Multi-objective optimization of tool wear, surface roughness, and material removal rate in finishing honing processes using adaptive neural fuzzy inference systems
PublicationHoning processes are usually employed to manufacture combustion engine cylinders and hydraulic cylinders. A crosshatch pattern is obtained that favors the oil flow. In this paper, Adaptive Neural Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) models were obtained for tool wear, average roughness Ra, cylindricity and material removal rate in finish honing processes. In addition, multi-objective optimization with the desirability function method...

Development of an Analytical Protocol for Determination of Cyanide in Human Biological Samples Based on Application of Ion Chromatography with Pulsed Amperometric Detection
PublicationA simple and accurate ion chromatography (IC) method with pulsed amperometric detection (PAD) was proposed for the determination of cyanide ion in urine, sweat, and saliva samples. The sample pretreatment relies on alkaline digestion and application of Dionex OnGuard II H cartridge. Under the optimized conditions, the method showed good linearity in the range of 1–100 μg/L for urine, 5–100 μg/L for saliva, and 3–100 μg/L for sweat...

Synthesis and biological activity of mycophenolic acid-amino acid derivatives
PublicationIn search of new immunosuppressants, mycophenolic acid (MPA) was coupled with amino acid methyl esters followed by hydrolysis to analogs bearing free carboxylic groups. The obtained compunds were tested in vitro as growth inhibitors of lymphoid cell line (Jurkat) and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from healthy donors. According to obtained results recovering of free carboxylic group increased their activity. Additionally,...

Analytical procedures for determination of cocaine and its metabolites in biological samples
PublicationThe dangerous effects and increased usage of illicit drugs have inspired the development of analytical methodologies. We based our review of analytical procedures for determination of cocaine (COC) and its metabolites on literature from the past two decades. Our main aim was to compare the capabilities of different analytical techniques. The diversity of matrices from which COC is determined (e.g., blood, hair, saliva, plasma,...

Application of Peracetic Acid for Biological Foam Elimination in the SBR Bioreactor
PublicationPrzedstawiono wyniki wstępnych badań nad zastosowaniem kwasu nadoctowego (PAA) do likwidacji piany biologicznej, spowodowanej przez bakterię nitkowatą Microthrix parvicella. Wykazano, że okresowe zraszanie powierzchni piany małymi dawkami kwasu nadoctowego (rzędu kilkudziesięciu ml 1% roztworu PAA/na 1 m2 piany o grubości 1 cm) powoduje niemal natychmiastwy zanik piany, wytworzonej na powierzchni osadu czynnego w bioreaktorze...

Modified polycarbonate urethane: synthesis, properties and biological investigation in vitro
PublicationNowy poliweglano uretan (PCU-I) otrzymano z alifatycznych monomerów: poliwęglanu heksanodiolu, 4,4'diizocyjanianu dicykloheksanometanu, mieszaniny małocząsteczkowych dioli i oleju rycynowego (zawierającego głównie trigliceryd kwasu 12-hydroksyoleinowego). PCU-II otrzymano analogicznie ale bez udziału oleju rycynowego. Obydwa PCU charakteryzowały się dobrą wytrzymałością na rozciąganie. PCU-I miał niższą temperaturę zeszklenia a...

Singlet oxygen in the removal of organic pollutants: An updated review on the degradation pathways based on mass spectrometry and DFT calculations
PublicationThe degradation of pollutants by a non-radical pathway involving singlet oxygen (1O2) is highly relevant in advanced oxidation processes. Photosensitizers, modified photocatalysts, and activated persulfates can generate highly selective 1O2 in the medium. The selective reaction of 1O2 with organic pollutants results in the evolution of different intermediate products. While these products can be identified using mass spectrometry...

Influence of several biodegradable components added to pure and nanosilver-doped PMMA bone cements on its biological and mechanical properties
PublicationAcrylic bone cements (BC) are wildly used in medicine. Despite favorable mechanical properties, processability and inject capability, BC lack bioactivity. To overcome this, we investigated the effects of selected biodegradable additives to create a partially-degradable BC and also we evaluated its combination with nanosilver (AgNp). We hypothesized that using above strategies it would be possible to obtain bioactive BC. The Cemex...

Chemical and biological evaluation of antioxidant activity of endogenous redox-active compounds compared to plant-derived exogenous antioxidants
PublicationThe research conducted so far has shown that endogenous antioxidants, despite being regarded as the first line of antioxidant defense, may not be sufficient to maintain redox homeostasis in cells exposed to oxidative stress. The results obtained in the doctoral dissertation show that endogenous redox-active compounds were moderate or weak scavengers of ABTS and DPPH radicals, while in cellular setting, their impact on the reducing...
