Development of a novel antimicrobial food packaging film containing silver nanoparticles
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
In this study, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were incorporated into bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) by a reduction (R) and UV-assisted (UV) methods with the addition of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) to prepare an environmentally ...
Rapid detection of pesticide residues in foods using surface-enhanced raman spectroscopy coupled with gold nanostars
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
molecules. The UV-vis spectrometer, electron microscopes and Zetasizer were utilized for characterization. The detection limits of this SERS method are 5 ppm for TBZ in apple juice and 0.2 ppm for paraquat in green tea. These results indicate that SERS...
