Bernard Henrissat is elected member of the Academy of Sciences

At the end of the elections opened in 2023, the Academy of Sciences has just elected 18 new members, including our former colleague Bernard Henrissat in the “Chemical, biological and medical sciences, and their applications” division, chemistry section. CERMAV and the community are really proud of him ! Bernard Henrissat completed his doctorate thesis at Cermav. […]

Electrospun Cactus Mucilage/Poly(vinyl alcohol) Nanofibers as a Novel Wall Material for Dill Seed Essential Oil (Anethum graveolens L.) Encapsulation: Release and Antibacterial Activities

This study, a collaboration work with University of Sfax and Grenoble INP, aimed to create long-lasting molecular carriers by producing electrospun nanofibers from cactus mucilage and poly(vinyl alcohol) loaded with dill seed (Anethum graveolens L.) essential oil (DSEO). The electrospun nanofibers enabled controlled long-term release of DESO. The DSEO-containing nanofibers demonstrated bacteriostatic and bactericidal activities […]

Enantioselective membranes prepared by electrospinning of cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenyl carbamate) having various degrees of polymerization: effect of the DP on the morphology

Recently, we reported a proof of concept of enantioselective membrane filtration using a nonwoven membrane prepared by electrospinning of cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenyl carbamate) (CDMPC) synthesized from microcrystalline cellulose. In the present work, CDMPCs having higher degrees of polymerization were synthesized from cellulose fibers derived from hardwoods by a collaboration with Centre Technique du Papier granted by […]

Mini symposium Lyon : Glycomics and beyond….

Cermav will participate in the mini-symposium organized by Dr Petier Goekjan, on Friday December 8th, 2023 at the Batiment Lederer (ICBMS building, 1 rue Victor Grignard) on the Doua Campus, as part of the the ICL-funded visit of Prof. .Nicolas Pohl. Glycomics: Beyond the human glycome Program : Glycomics in Glycoscience will address some of the pending […]
