Active Polymers Containing Silver Nanoparticles Combined With Formulations Based on Essential Oils: Quality Effect on Cereals and Dairy Products

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Bioactive nanocomposite diffusion films containing plant essential oils (EOs) and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were fabricated and tested against foodborne pathogens, spoilage organisms, and insects in packaged foods. Films were based on chitosan (CH), poly(butylene adipate‐co‐terephthalate) (PBAT), and polylactic acid (PLA), containing ...

Effect of different antifungals on the control of paper biodeterioration caused by fungi

, 1997
The inhibition of some fungal strains responsible for paper biodeterioration is reported. Antimicrobials (butylated hydroxytoluene, BHT and butylated hydroxyanisole, BHA), azole antifungals (econazole, miconazole and ketoconazole) and chitin synthase ...

Complex Dynamic Ecosystems Model on Biodeterioration of Concrete Structures [PDF]

, 2001
application/pdfAlthough environmental and sanitary engineers are aware of the importance of microbial activity, many civil and architectural engineers do not appreciate the part microbiological processes play in, for example, biodeterioration of concrete

Ecosystem‐Centered Robot Design: Toward Ecoresorbable Sustainability Robots (ESRs)

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 15, 13 March 2026.
Robots exploring natural ecosystems can support monitoring and conservation, but must adopt ecosystem‐centered design to avoid pollution, waste, and damage. This review proposes guidelines for co‐designing ecoresorbable sustainability robots (ESRs), uniting materials, robotics, and ecological contexts in a single framework.

Metagenomic Analysis of Polypropylene and Low-Density Polyethylene Plastispheres from an Intensive Agriculture Waste Landfill

Microplastics
Synthetic plastics are polymers that are largely produced worldwide, impacting ecosystems and human health. Microplastics are produced from fragmentation and degradation of larger plastics, as a consequence of environmental factors.

Advanced Fungal Control With Metallic Nanoparticles: A Comprehensive Review of Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA) for Particle Concentration Characterization

ChemistrySelect, Volume 11, Issue 12, 26 March 2026.
Metallic nanoparticles are emerging as potent antifungal agents, yet their efficacy is rarely quantified on a particle basis. Here, we demonstrate how nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), together with a newly proposed Particle Efficiency Index (PEI), can relate nanoparticle concentration to fungal inoculum load, enabling more rigorous and comparable ...

Oxalate production by fungi: significance in geomycology, biodeterioration and bioremediation

, 2014
Oxalate is a key metabolite that plays a significant role in many metal and mineral transformations mediated by fungi. Metal and mineral transformations are central to geomycological processes including nutrient and element cycling, rock, mineral and ...
