Natural Crossing in Fiber Flax
Japanese Journal of Crop Science, 1959 Fiber flax belongs to self-pollinating plant, but in the flowering period flowers are usually visited by many kind of insects such as honey bees, Bombus spp., Megachile spp., hover flies, butterflies, etc. The investigation was carried out from 1954 to 1957 to know how many extent viable foreign pollen will be brought and how many natural crossing will

Cannabinoid-like anti-inflammatory compounds from flax fiber [PDF]
Cellular and Molecular Biology Letters, 2012 AbstractFlax is a valuable source of fibers, linseed and oil. The compounds of the latter two products have already been widely examined and have been proven to possess many health-beneficial properties. In the course of analysis of fibers extract from previously generated transgenic plants overproducing phenylpropanoids a new terpenoid compound was ...

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.Effect of processing‐induced thermal degradation on the mechanical performance of thermoplastic flax fiber composites. ABSTRACT The drawback of biobased polymer matrix composites (PMCs) is their limited temperature stability, resulting from degradation, which restricts their processability in established composite manufacturing processes requiring ...

Effect of Chemical Surface Treatment on Flax-Reinforced Epoxy Composite
Journal of Natural Fibers, 2018 The aim of this study is to examine the impact of surface modification on properties of flax fiber and flax-reinforced composites. For this purpose, acetic anhydride, sodium hydroxide, and silane were used to treat surface of the flax fiber.

The renaissance of flax fibers
Reinforced Plastics, 2018 Once upon a time all materials were naturally sourced. Now that natural fibers have lost a lot of their traditional market shares to synthetic fibers, they are gearing up to conquer new markets: yarns and fabrics are being tailored to the reinforced plastics industry. Flax is a promising natural fiber. It is relatively stiff and strong. And because it

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.Abstract Aims Precision nutrition, guided by genetic testing, has emerged as a promising approach for managing obesity. However, robust clinical trials testing its effectiveness in real‐world dietary interventions remain scarce. The GenOn Programme aims to evaluate whether tailoring nutritional care based on genetic risk for obesity enhances weight ...
