Integrated biorefinery for cellulosic ethanol and spherical nanolignin production from coconut waste

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Green coconut waste was subjected to different fractionation methods to obtain integrated lignin nanoparticles and cellulosic ethanol. Pretreatment with gradual addition of dilute sulfuric acid provided a higher structural hemicellulose precursor yield (68.2%).

Land birds on atolls: diversity, origin, and function

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oceanic islands are global hotspots of avian biodiversity and endemism. Their isolation and distinct environmental conditions have uniquely shaped the evolutionary trajectories of island birds, while, in turn, land bird communities have become critical providers of ecological functions to island ecosystems.

Activated carbons made from cocoa (Theobroma cacao) and coconut (Cocos nucifera) shells can be used as adsorbents to improve the quality of frying oils

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Carbonised cocoa shells and carbonised coconut shells have a high level of porosity and a large adsorption surface area. Activated carbons made from cocoa and from the mixture cocoa–coconut shells at 15% demonstrated their ability to reduce primary and secondary oxidation products in frying oils and improves the organoleptic properties of fried foods ...

Impact of high temperature processing and heating duration on fatty acid composition and trans fatty acid formation in seven cold‐pressed and five refined vegetable oils

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Edible oils are essential dietary constituents that contribute as energy source, fatty acids and medium for fat‐soluble vitamins. High temperature during frying induces changes in the fatty acid profile of edible oils. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the influence of high temperature (230 ± 5°C) and duration of heating (0, 1, 2
