Microbiological safety in the reuse of materials in home enteral nutrition: A quantitative in vitro experimental study

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction In home enteral nutrition (HEN), the reuse of packaging and administration materials beyond the recommended period, combined with inadequate hygiene practice, increase the risk of microbiological contamination. This study assessed the risk through a simulation that reproduced real‐world usage conditions and hygiene practices ...

Performance of Glass Fiber Composites With Plastic‐Waste Pyrolysis Char as Filler

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Valorisation of mixed plastic waste into carbonaceous char via pyrolysis, its integration as a microfiller in epoxy/E‐glass (GFRP) laminates, and characterisation to assess composite performance as a function of filler loading. ABSTRACT Plastic pyrolysis offers circular solutions for mixed plastic waste but leaves a carbonaceous char that is often ...

BPA-free? Exploring the reproductive toxicity of BPA substitutes BPS and BPF on endometrial decidualization

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Bisphenol A (BPA) exposure is linked to multiple adverse health outcomes, prompting the rise of ''BPA-free'' products. However, substitutes like Bisphenol S (BPS) and Bisphenol F (BPF) are equally prevalent, with detection frequencies and concentrations ...

Polyimides Derived from Diglycidyl Ether of Bisphenol-A and Bisphenol-F via Diels–Alder Polymerization

open access: yes
Novel polyimides were synthesized by Diels–Alder polymerization. Bisfuran (BF) was reacted with several bismaleimides containing the diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A and bisphenol-F (epoxy segments) to obtain Diels–Alder polyadducts.
