da Silva Rodrigues, Joel (author), Marasca Antonini, Leonardo (author), da Cunha Bastos, António Alexandre (author), Zhou, J. (author), de Fraga Malfatti, Célia (author)The rapid bio-corrosion of magnesium-based alloys, the formation of hydrogen gas and, consequently, the premature loss of biomechanical functions hinder their applications as biodegradable implant materials. The corrosion becomes even accelerated, when fretting wear occurs at implant junctions, as a result of repeated disruptions of the...journal article 2021

Zahmatkesh, M. (author)In order to address the ambiguities and knowledge gaps in the HA removal by WRF, mechanisms of removal were explored in chapter 2. It was shown that the mechanisms of HA removal by WRF involves the degradation of HA to smaller molecules, conversion to FA and also biosorption of HA by fungal mycelia. Furthermore, the ability of laccase to...doctoral thesis 2018
