Active chitosan coating to inhibit decay and maintain mango postharvest quality

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Microbial decay limits the storage, quality and trade of mangoes (Mangifera indica). We developed an active chitosan coating containing zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO‐NPs) and Eucalyptus radiata essential oil (EEO) to inhibit decay and preserve postharvest quality of mango. Chitosan (cationic) can disrupt microbial membranes; ZnO‐NPs

Linking Relationship of Ecosystem Service Supply and Demand Into Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ecosystem services (ES) play a crucial role in sustainable development. We systematically assessed the spatial and temporal dynamics of ecosystem service supply (ES‐s) and demand (ES‐d) in China from 1990 to 2020 by using a supply–demand matrix integrated with land use/cover data. The findings indicate that in 2020, grasslands accounted for 28.

Interfacial Chemistry Behind Damage Monitoring in Glass Fiber‐Reinforced Composites: Attempts and Perspectives

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Role of the modifications at the interface in glass fiber reinforced composites for damage monitoring. ABSTRACT Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymers (GFRPs) are widely used in structural applications but degrade over time due to internal damage. Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) enables early damage detection, improving reliability and reducing maintenance
