Toxicity of formaldehyde, polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and phthalates in engineered wood products (EWPs) from the perspective of the green approach to materials: A Review

BioResources, 2019
Adhesives, flame-retardant chemicals, and paints are used in engineered wood products (EWPs) to increase some of the properties of wood. Most of the engineered wood composites, including plywood, particleboard, and fiberboard, used as furniture ...

Multivariate Image Analysis Applied to Cross-Laminated Timber: Combined Hyperspectral Near-Infrared and X-ray Computed Tomography

Journal of Spectroscopy, 2023
Engineered wood products, such as cross-laminated timber (CLT), are becoming more popular in the designs of modern sustainable buildings. This increased production of CLT requires more robust, yet less labour-intensive means to assess the material ...

ENGINEERED WOOD PRODUCTS MANUFACTURED FROM RECLAIMED HARDWOOD TIMBER

World Conference on Timber Engineering (WCTE 2023), 2023
The circular economy is commonly applied in recent years in order to reduce the amount of wood waste with many environmental benefits. The construction and demolition sector generates a large amount of wood waste that can be potentially reused or recycled into different wood-added-value products. The InFutUReWood and the RECOWERS European projects deal

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...
