RESUMO
Microcapsules are small particles that can effectively protect a core material from degradation. Microcapsules with double capsule walls can improve stability and reduce breakage due to the fact that the physical and chemical properties of double-walled materials can complement each other, thus enhancing the quality and applicability of a microcapsule. Microcapsules can achieve controlled release of core materials by using a temperature-sensitive wall material. In this research, gelatin was used as the inner wall material for these double-walled microcapsules. The outer wall material was a composite material prepared by the reaction of a hydroxyl group in gum arabic with an amino group in N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) in the presence of N, N'-methylene bisacrylamide (BIS), while lavender fragrance oil served as the core material. A complex coalescence method was used for the preparation of microcapsules with double capsule walls. The effects of different proportions of gum arabic to NIPAM on the core loading, microcapsule yield and thermal stability of microcapsules were studied in detail. Additionally, the stability of these fragrance microcapsules with double capsule walls in different solvents and pH values was evaluated. The sustained release properties and mechanism of cotton fabrics treated with prepared fragrance microcapsules were investigated. The results show that the microcapsules prepared with a 10:1 ratio of NIPAM to gum arabic have good temperature responsiveness. Therefore, clothing treated with microcapsules with temperature-sensitive wall materials can ensure that the human body has a fresh and pleasant smell in the case of perspiring in summer.
RESUMO
In this work, we perform a comprehensive analytical study to find the novel exact traveling wave solutions of the ( 2 + 1 ) -dimensional Kadomtsev-Petviashvili-Benjamin-Bona-Mahony (KP-BBM) equation. The recently developed ( G ' G ' + G + A ) -expansion technique is a capable method for finding the new exact solutions of assorted nonlinear evolution equations. Some new analytical solutions are obtained by utilizing the aforementioned method. The obtained solutions are expressed as trigonometric functions and exponential functions. The extracted exact wave solutions are advanced and fully unique from the earlier literature Moreover, we have presented the contour simulations, 2D and 3D graphical representations of the solution functions and we have observed that the solutions obtained are periodic and solitary wave solutions. We have shown two soliton wave solutions and two singular periodic wave solutions for the particular values of the parameters graphically. As per our knowledge, we must say that the extracted solutions might be significant and essential for new physical phenomenon.
RESUMO
Since December 2019, a de novo pattern of pneumonia, later named coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), has caused grave upset throughout the global population. COVID-19 is associated with several comorbidities; thus, preventive and therapeutic strategies targeting those comorbidities along with the causative agent, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), seem imperative. In this state-of-the-art review, edible and medicinal mushrooms are featured in the treatment of SARS-CoV-2, COVID-19 pathomanifestations, and comorbid issues. Because this is not an original research article, we admit our shortcomings in inferences. Yet we are hopeful that mushroom-based therapeutic approaches can be used to achieve a COVID-free world. Among various mushroom species, reishi or lingzhi (Ganoderma lucidum) seem most suitable as anti-COVID agents for the global population.
