Abstract
In this review modification of cellulose and alumina membranes are studied. Cellulose membranes are classified by the derivatives used for its modification. General biomedical applications of modified cellulose membranes with organic substrates are studied and their specific applications with organic substrates are also analysed. Review includes preparation of zwitterionic polymers on cellulose membranes and its biocompatibility, antioxidant activity and the fabrication of biosensors and biochips by immobilising biomolecules; the study of drug delivery systems; membranes for anti-contaminant activity, wastewater filtration and finally the modification of regenerated cellulose membranes with lipid nanoparticles and layers.
Regarding the alumina membranes modified with organic compounds, specific applications in biomedical field are studied.
Keywords: Alumina, cellulose, antioxidant, wastewater filtration, SLNs, organic substrates.

Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
