Nanofiber PVA‐Based Membranes Incorporating Functionalized Spanish Broom Derivatives for Sustainable Water Purification

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This study investigates Spanish broom (Spartium junceum) as a renewable source for electrospun composite membranes in sustainable water purification. MCC and biochar were functionalized with eco‐friendly precursors and nanomaterials (i.e., HNT, β‐CDs) to develop hybrid PVA nanofiber composites.

Insight into the dissolving selectivity of ionic liquids for the major components in both parenchyma cells and fiber cells of bamboo (Phyllostachys pubescens Mazel) via X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy

open access: yesIndustrial Crops and Products
Understanding the dissolving selectivity of ionic liquids for the major components, namely cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, in both bamboo parenchyma cells and fiber cells is crucial for achieving efficient pretreatment of bamboo with ionic liquids.

A Novel Neutral Polysaccharide From Bamboo Shoot Processing Liquid: Structural Characterization and In Vitro TLR4/NF‐κB Mediated Anti‐Inflammatory Activity

open access: yesFood Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Value‐added utilization of resources can be developed from by‐products of agricultural processing. In this study, a neutral polysaccharide (BSLP‐1, 19,799 Da) was obtained from bamboo shoot processing liquid. Structurally, BSLP‐1 has a backbone of →4)‐α‐D‐Glcp‐(1→ and →4,6)‐α‐D‐Glcp‐(1→, with side chains of →5)‐α‐L‐Araf‐(1→ and α‐D‐Glcp‐(1→6 ...

Beeswax: Food and beyond

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Honeybees (Apis mellifera L.) are an important class of insects that are the most beneficial in terms of economy. Beeswax is the second most important bee products after honey. Its commercial importance is due to its antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory and antiseptic as well as regenerative properties.
