The Use of Purified and Modified Cellulose in Wine Production and Analysis

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Cellulose is not only one of the most abundant biological macromolecules but can also be purified and modified to serve a multitude of purposes in industrial winemaking processes. Being composed of only glucose and naturally occurring unbranched in nature as strands and fibrils, cellulose can be used for filtration directly or as a filtration ...

Diatomaceous earths: Natural insecticides

Pesticidi i fitomedicina, 2013
The regulatory issues for diatomaceous earth (DE) cover three fields: consumer safety, worker safety, and proof of efficacy against pests. For consumer safety, regulatory issues are similar to those for other additives, and a principal benefit of DEs is their removal by normal processing methods.

Efficacy of Australian Entomopathogenic Nematodes Against the Pupal Stage of the Small Hive Beetle (Aethina tumida) Under Semi‐Field Conditions

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The small hive beetle (SHB; Aethina tumida) is a major pest of honey bees that has threatened Australia's apiculture industry since its detection in 2002. Worryingly, the impact of SHB may be exacerbated by the recent establishment of Varroa destructor in eastern Australia.

Evaluating the Combined Effects of Elevated [CO2] and Accelerated NPQ Relaxation on Yield, Physiology and Transcription in Soybean

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 6169-6187, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Improving photosynthesis is proposed as a means of enhancing crop productivity. To assess whether simultaneous increases in light use‐efficiency and carbon assimilation are additive, we investigated the impact of elevated CO2 on the performance of a transgenic soybean line engineered for faster relaxation of photoprotection by overexpression ...

Batteries From Reused, Recycled, and Surplus Materials

Advanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 10, Issue 7, July 2026.
Batteries can become more circular by combining reuse, direct recycling, metallurgical recovery, and material sourcing from industrial surplus streams. This Review highlights how recycled and waste‐derived metals, carbons, polymers, electrolytes, and active materials can be reintegrated into current and emerging batteries, while emphasizing design ...

Civilian Occupational Exposure to Vapors, Gas, Dust, or Fumes and Respiratory Health Among United States Military Veterans

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, Volume 69, Issue 7, Page 503-511, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background We investigated associations of self‐reported and job exposure matrix (JEM) assigned civilian occupational exposure to vapors, gas, dust, or fumes (VGDF) with respiratory symptoms among previously deployed US Veterans. Methods An interviewer‐administered questionnaire ascertained self‐reported civilian occupational VGDF exposure.
