Effective extraction of fluoroquinolones from water using facile modified plant fibers [PDF]
In this study, ecofriendly and economic carboxy-terminated plant fibers (PFs) were used as adsorbents for the effective in-syringe solid phase extraction (IS-SPE) of fluoroquinolone (FQ) residues from water.

Harnessing Cattail Biomass for Sustainable Fibers and Engineered Bioproducts: A Review [PDF]
Cattail (Typha), a wetland plant, is emerging as a sustainable materials resource. While most of the Typha species are proven to be a fiber‐yielding crop, Typha latifolia exhibits the broadest leaf size (5–30 mm), yields highest amount of fiber (≈190.9 g)

Preparation and oil adsorption performance of cattail fiber wadding
To study the adsorption to pure oil and oil-water mixture, cattail fiber waddings with different fibers, wadding structures, blending ratios were prepared. Oil absorbencies in the pure oils and oil-water mixtures were tested and evaluated.
