Preliminary Assessment of Sweet Chestnut and Mixed Sweet Chestnut-Poplar OSB

open access: yes, 2020
Poplar Oriented Strand Board (OSB) has been produced since 2012 in Italy, and is well-established on the market. Nonetheless, some doubts have recently emerged about the raw material supply due to the trend towards reduction in plantations.

Antibacterial activity of wood distillate from residual virgin chestnut biomass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The antibacterial properties of a wood distillate obtained from residual virgin chestnut biomass were investigated by means of quantitative MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) test and a whole-cell assay that specifically responds to different classes

Drought Stress Mediated Changes in Food Crops: Mechanisms and Remediation Strategies

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a multi‐scale framework for flavonoid‐mediated drought tolerance in staple food crops, integrating ROS redox regulation, antioxidant defense, rhizosphere microbial interactions, and sustainable agronomic practices. This interdisciplinary model provides core insights to develop climate‐resilient cropping systems and enhance global ...

Compression stress in opposite wood of angiosperms: observations in chestnut, mani and poplar [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Forest Science, 2006
In order to face environmental constraints, trees are able to re-orient their axes by controlling the stress level in the newly formed wood layers. Angiosperms and gymnosperms evolved into two distinct mechanisms: the former produce a wood with large tension pre-stress on the upper side of the tilted axis, while the latter produce a wood with large ...

Applications of Biomaterials in Separators for Secondary Batteries

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
In this review, biomaterial‐based separators are reviewed as sustainable alternatives to conventional polyolefin‐based separators. For 12 different natural polymers, spanning from Protista, Plantae, and Animalia, viable strategies for synthesizing biomass‐based separators are described.
