Bromelain as the enzyme of the future: A global bibliometric mapping of its applications and emerging trends

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Bromelain, a complex mixture of proteolytic enzymes primarily extracted from plants of the Bromeliaceae family, has gained prominence because of its broad industrial applicability, particularly in the food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic sectors.

Fruit‐quality tradeoffs generate asymmetry in plant reliance on mutualistic frugivores

Oikos, EarlyView.
Seed dispersal is a fundamental ecological process influencing the evolution of plant life‐history strategies. In fleshy‐fruited plants dispersed by mutualistic frugivores, variation in fruit traits among closely related species may shape the temporal and spatial dynamics of dispersal events critical to population success.

Ecological significance of fruit displays in Myrtaceae: relationship between fruit colour, maturation stage, attractiveness and seed germination

Oikos, EarlyView.
Fruit colour has long fascinated scientists and is widely considered an evolutionary adaptation to attract both avian and mammalian frugivores. While fleshy fruits play a key role in plant–animal interactions by promoting seed dispersal, the functional significance of colour variation, particularly multicoloured displays during ripening, remains poorly

Value‐Added Recycling of Beverage Carton Waste Into Thermoplastic Sandwich Structures With Enhanced Energy Absorption and Damping Properties

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Preparation of lightweight composite panels from multilayer beverage carton waste. ABSTRACT Beverage carton waste, a multi‐layer composite of cardboard, polymer, and aluminum, presents significant recycling challenges for conventional recovery technologies. This work presents a manufacturing process‐oriented method that allows shredded beverage cartons

Rootstock impacts on citrus flush dynamics, vegetative growth, and Diaphorina citri infestation and dispersion: Implications for huanglongbing management

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Dwarfing citrus rootstocks restrict flush shoot growth on the scion, thereby reducing Asian citrus psyllid infestation, dispersal, and huanglongbing (HLB) progression. These findings support the use of dwarfing rootstocks as an effective cultural strategy in integrated HLB management for citrus orchards.

Direct pulp capping with dentinal adhesives

, 1999
Direct pulp capping (DPC) is a procedure where exposed pulp tissue is covered with material in order to preserve its vitality. Traditionally calcium hydroxide is used as a material for this procedure. In a recent time it was suggested to use dentinal adhesives as a material for direct pulp capping.

4-Year Pulp Survival in a Randomized Trial on Direct Pulp Capping

Journal of Endodontics
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to assess pulp survival in a randomized trial on pulp lavage in adult nonpainful posterior teeth with carious pulp exposure. The treatment included complete caries excavation, direct pulp capping with mineral trioxide aggregate, and immediate restoration with composite resin. METHODS Fluid was collected from the pulp wound

Impact of Packaging and Recycling Systems on Material Recirculation: A Stage‐Decomposition Model

Packaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
A system‐level view emerges from decomposing recycling into four stages (participation, collection, sorting and process yield), diagnosing constraints and targeting interventions. Cumulative equivalent uses (CEUs) quantify long‐term retention, revealing marginal improvements at high baselines generate disproportionately larger gains than low‐baseline ...
