Linking regional and global functional trait data: insights from mammal communities in a fragmented Atlantic Forest landscape

Oikos, EarlyView.
Accurate functional trait data are essential for understanding ecosystem services and processes in fragmented landscapes. We evaluated whether the global EltonTraits 1.0 database adequately represents the functional structure of mammal communities in forest fragments and restoration sites in a highly fragmented Atlantic Forest landscape.

Improvement of water absorption behavior and mechanical properties of woven jute fiber‐reinforced epoxy composites with waste eggshell filler

Polymer International, EarlyView.
This study investigates the influence of waste eggshell powder on the water absorption and mechanical properties of jute fiber‐reinforced epoxy composites. Optimal eggshell filler content (2 wt%) significantly enhances composite performance by reducing water absorption and improving mechanical properties.

Bioactive Glycosides in Citrus Fruit Peels

Bioactive Glycosides in Citrus Fruit Peels
[Synopsis] Since 1980's we have been investigating bioactive compounds in citrus fruit peels. We have successfully isolated seventy-three glycosides including thirty-four new compounds. They were flavonoid glycosides, phenylpropanoid glycosides, terpenoid glycosides, limonoid glycosides, and alkyl glycosides.

Structural characterization and optimum machining parameters of jute/carbon fibre hybrid reinforced epoxy composite laminates

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Hybrid jute/carbon epoxy laminates have better mechanical performance and less drilling damage by the use of optimized stacking sequence and machining parameters. Abstract Three composite laminate systems were produced using the standard hand lay‐up method: jute‐fibre‐reinforced polymer (JFRP), carbon‐fibre‐reinforced polymer (CFRP) and a hybrid of the

Bioconversion and characterization of watermelon rind waste‐based microcrystalline cellulose: A green alternative to synthetic reinforcements

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) was extracted from watermelon rind using acid hydrolysis. MCC can be efficiently used as reinforcement in biofilms and biocomposites. Abstract The increasing accumulation of agricultural waste from watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) represents a substantial environmental concern, particularly in view of the extensive ...

Host phenology‐driven infestation patterns of the carob moth (Ectomyelois ceratoniae) in Mediterranean walnut orchards: insights from comparison with codling moth (Cydia pomonella)

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
In Mediterranean walnut orchards, Ectomyelois ceratoniae replaces Cydia pomonella as the primary pest. Capture peaks between packing tissue brown (PTB) stage and husk dehiscence define a critical window for monitoring and early harvest to prevent kernel infestation.

Microglial Activation Under Hypoxic Conditions in Early Alzheimer's Disease: Can Natural SIRT1 Activators Be Therapeutic Allies in the Inflammation–Energy Axis?

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition characterized by a preclinical stage that typically lasts for decades. Early on during this time, microglia react to pathological changes and become protective and even transiently delay neurodegeneration.
