Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis: Plant‐Based Therapy for Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common disorder of brain‐gut interaction that presents with abdominal pain, bloating associated with variable stool consistency. Many IBS patients prefer plant‐based preparations to pharmacological therapy; however, the utility of this approach is not well established.

Almond Shell‐Derived Cellulosic Microfibres: Extraction, Characterisation and Applications in Sustainable Paper‐Based Packaging

Packaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
Cellulosic microfibres were extracted from almond shells using organosolv, soda and kraft processes, and comprehensive physicochemical, surface, thermal and morphological characterisation demonstrated their strong potential as sustainable fillers for paper‐based packaging application. ABSTRACT This study develops pathways for the valorisation of almond

Development of a custom commingled flax/PLA wrapped yarn for additive manufacturing of long-fibre biocomposites

Materials & Design
Plant fibres are promising reinforcements for bio-composites in additive manufacturing, but their use as long fibres remains limited, often reduced to short particles that underuse their potential.

Influence of natural fibers on physical, mechanical, and fire‐resistant properties of microconcrete

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examined the influence of natural fibers on the physical, mechanical, and fire‐resistant properties of microconcrete, in comparison with conventional polypropylene fibers used in cement composites. The fibers were characterized by FTIR and TGA/DSC to assess their composition and thermal stability, and FTIR was also performed after ...

Novel Hybrid Flax Reinforced Supersap Composites in Automotive Applications

Fibers, 2015
Flax fibre bio-epoxy composites have not found many commercial uses in structural applications on account of their lack of cost efficiency and high susceptibility to environmental changes. Non-woven flax mats were subjected to alkali, acetylation, silane

Additives Enhancing Biodegradability in Plastics and Potential Implications for Textiles: A Mechanistic Review

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 35, September 15, 2026.
Mechanistic insights from additive‐assisted plastic degradation guide the design of environmentally adaptive textile fibers. Functional additives enhance oxidative, hydrolytic, enzymatic, and microbial degradation pathways. Translating these strategies requires control of fiber architecture, additive distribution, and environmental interactions ...

Multicriteria physico-chemical analysis of flax technical fibres from drought-stressed plants: A case study highlighting plant compensatory responses

Industrial Crops and Products
Flax fibres are renewable alternatives to synthetics, backed by well-established supply chains. However, they are vulnerable to prolonged droughts, which threaten their yield, quality and use under future climate scenarios.

Substitution of fiber hemp for corn did not affect soil greenhouse gas emissions from a Kentucky cropping system

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Industrial hemp's return to American agriculture has been accompanied by claims of the crop's carbon neutrality, primarily due to its commercial applications. While carbon can be sequestered within products made with hemp fiber, there is little empirical evidence quantifying greenhouse gas contributions from the crop's production.
