    • Development of biodegradable and vermicompostable films based on alginate and waste eggshells 
      Villanueva, Valeria; Valdés, Fabrizzio; Zúñiga, Rommy N.; Villamizar Sarmiento, María Gabriela; Soto Bustamante, Eduardo Arturo; Romero Hasler, Patricio; Riveros Salvatierra, Ana Luisa; Tapia, José; Lisoni, Judit; Oyarzún Ampuero, Felipe Andrés; Valenzuela Venegas, Carolina Paz (Elsevier, 2023)
      The development of biofilms to replace plastics is urgent, due to the high environmental pollution caused by the non-biodegradable packaging. The objective of this study was to develop and understand the behavior ...
    • Partial biomimetic reconstitution of avian eggshell formation 
      Fernández, M. S.; Passalacqua, K.; Arias, J. I.; Arias, J. L. (2004)
      The avian eggshell is a biocomposite ceramic consisting of minute amounts of organic matrix and a crystalline calcium carbonate (calcite) filler. It is formed by a well regulated spatio-temporal assembling process, where ...
    • Role of extracellular matrix molecules in shell formation and structure 
      Arias Bautista, José; Fernández Garay, María Soledad (2001)
      Avian eggshells are natural composite bioceramics containing organic and inorganic phases. The occurrence and role of particular collagens and proteoglycans in the eggshell and their pattern of secretion by the oviduct is ...
    • Secretion pattern, ultrastructural localization and function of extracellular matrix molecules involved in ... 
      Fernández Garay, María Soledad; Moya, Alejandra; López, Luis; Arias Bautista, José (2001)
      The chicken eggshell is a composite bioceramic containing organic and inorganic phases. The organic phase contains, among other constituents, type X collagen and proteoglycans (mammillan, a keratan sulfate proteoglycan, ...
