Guided by the spectral demand of plant photosystems, this review summarizes the synthesis, emission regulation, dual‐emission design, and gram‐scale production of CDs for agricultural applications. Spectrally matched blue‐ and red‐emissive CDs enhance plant light utilization by converting underutilized light into photosynthetically active radiation and

ABSTRACT Cadmium (Cd) is a persistent environmental heavy metal and a major public health concern because it persists in the body for long periods and gradually accumulates in vital organs, particularly the liver, kidneys, and brain. Chronic Cd exposure promotes the excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which ultimately leads to ...

The organoalkali route to vitamin A and b-carotene
The reductive cleavage of Me vinyl-b-ionyl ether or the deprotonation of 3,2',6',6'-tetramethyl-5-(1-cyclohexenyl)-1,3-pentadiene gives rise to an organometallic C15 species that combines selectively with a variety of electrophiles at the terminal chain ...

Naturally coloured poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate)
Abstract This study reports an innovative approach for producing intrinsically coloured poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB)] films by incorporating natural dyes—turmeric, paprika, annatto, beetroot and hibiscus—directly into the fermentation medium of Ralstonia solanacearum RS.
