Applied Research, Volume 5, Issue 4, August 2026.Fiber treatment improved sugarcane bagasse by increasing cellulose content to 71.7% and crystallinity to 91.36%. Among composites, PLA–CS–UASCB showed the best overall performance, maintaining tensile strength and modulus close to pure PLA while delivering the highest antimicrobial activity, reducing E. coli by 20.28% and S. aureus by 28.33%.

Effects of Biochar and Maize Roots on CO2 Emissions and Microbial Biomass C in Loess Soils
Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 189, Issue 4, Page 581-592, August 2026.ABSTRACT Background Refractory substances such as biochar and labile substances such as dead fine and coarse roots play important roles in soil organic matter dynamics and have key ecological functions. However, interactions between these substances have only rarely been studied.
