De vraag naar bioplastics die geschikt zijn als voedselverpakkingen is de afgelopen jaren sterk gestegen. Dit komt doordat er een sterke interesse is voor alternatieven voor polyethyleen (PE), polypropyleen (PP) en polyethyleentereftalaat (PET),die de negatieve associatie oproepen van afvalbergen, zwerfvuil en milieuvervuiling.

Processing–Structure–Degradation Relationships in Additively Manufactured and Cast PLA/PCL Blends
Electrohydrodynamic printing (E‐writing mode) and solution casting are used to fabricate PLA/PCL systems with different structures, enabling a direct comparison of processing‐ structure‐degradation relationships. The results show that morphology plays a key role in controlling rheological behavior, mechanical properties, and biodegradation, providing a

Sorghum Protein: Ethanol‐Based Extraction to Improve Yield and Properties
A key barrier to expanding the use of sorghum‐based proteins is the challenge related to protein extraction and utilization via conventional methods. This work evaluated a blended solvent approach (ethanol:alkali) for protein extraction from ground, pearled sorghum and wet‐milled sorghum protein meal to improve yield and properties.

Protein fibrils can be synthesized from both conventional and by‐product protein sources, each having distinct advantages. Stabilization through polysaccharides and polyphenols can enhance fibril functional properties, such as gelling, foaming, and emulsification, thus furthering their application in food and non‐food materials.

High‐Throughput Screening of Cyanobacterial PHB Production Using Fluorescence‐Based Detection
A validated high‐throughput screening protocol using Nile blue fluorescence is presented for optimizing cyanobacterial PHB production. This method enables the simultaneous assessment of multiple environmental parameters in microplates, offering a rapid, low‐volume alternative to gas chromatography to accelerate bioprocess development.
