Polymer International, EarlyView.Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) was extracted from watermelon rind using acid hydrolysis. MCC can be efficiently used as reinforcement in biofilms and biocomposites. Abstract The increasing accumulation of agricultural waste from watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) represents a substantial environmental concern, particularly in view of the extensive ...

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals
Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

Cellulosic materials as biopolymers and supercritical CO2as a green process: chemistry and applications [PDF]
, 2012 In this review, we describe the use of supercritical CO2 (scCO2) in several cellulose applications. The focus is on different technologies that either exist or are expected to emerge in the near future.

Thiophene bioconversions in Tagetes protoplasts [PDF]
Plant Science, 1995 Abstract The thiophene content of Tagetes protoplasts isolated from various organs, and the ability of these protoplasts to convert or synthesize thiophenes were investigated and compared with the thiophene content and metabolic capacities of intact organs.

An Effective Method to Detect Volatile Intermediates Generated in the Bioconversion of Coal to Methane by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry after In-Situ Extraction Using Headspace Solid-Phase Micro-Extraction under Strict Anaerobic Conditions. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Bioconversion of coal to methane has gained increased attention in recent decades because of its economic and environmental advantages. However, the mechanism of this process is difficult to study in depth, partly because of difficulties associated with ...

Biological Degradation of Spent Coffee Grounds by White Rot Fungi
MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.Spent coffee grounds (SCG) are an extensively generated byproduct of coffee production and consumption. This study demonstrates the ability of white rot fungi to degrade SCG, achieving more than 40% carbohydrate reduction and producing active lignocellulose‐degrading enzymes, highlighting a potential biological approach for the valorization of this ...
