Experimental methodology for evaluating enzyme kinetics and biocatalytic activity of antioxidant systems in pigmented Ficus leaves exposed to green-synthesized silver nanoparticles

Plant-derived biomaterials provide a sustainable platform for the development of functional nanostructures and biocatalytic systems. In this study, the kinetic properties and biocatalytic efficiency of catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD), and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) were evaluated...

Tailoring Pluronic® F127-Gelucire® 48/16 mixed micellar nanostructures for efficient solubilization of petroleum-derived hydrocarbon contaminants

Benzene (a representative monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, MAH) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are persistent hydrophobic pollutants frequently present in petroleum-related waste streams, produced waters, and contaminated aquatic environments. The low solubility of a...
