Biodegradable Polymers for Plant Nutrient Delivery and Recovery

Macromolecular Bioscience, EarlyView.
This review article discusses the use of biodegradable polymers to address several grand challenges in agriculture: to improve the delivery of nitrogen and phosphorous to crops, to optimize plant uptake, and to enhance the recovery of these nutrients from wastewater, to recycle them and reduce water pollution. Abstract The current use of fertilizers is

Sustainable Shell Formulations as Alternative to the Conventional Soft Gelatin Capsules in Pharmaceutical and Nutraceutical Applications. A Review.

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
In soft capsules (SCs), four crucial factors can modify the properties of the shell: the shell formulation, its interaction with the fill material, the SC production and its storage conditions. Gelatin is the most used gelling agent for SCs nowadays, but they have some drawbacks which can be solved including other alternative polymers in the shell ...

Organic Pea Starches–III. Comprehensive Characterization of Starches from a Set of Pea Varieties Grown Over 3 Years

Starch - Stärke, EarlyView.
A set of 45 starches isolated from different pea varieties grown in the same location in three consecutive years was investigated. The analysis of the isolated starches ranged from their molecular properties, granule structure, and gelatinization behavior to basic techno‐functional properties such as paste viscosity or gel starch.
