Restoring Food System Resilience in a Turbulent World: Supply Chain Actors' Shared Responsibility
ABSTRACT Ecological and economic crises increasingly affect the long‐term resilience of the food supply chain. This qualitative study draws on semistructured interviews and public evidence to analyse the perspectives of British supply chain actors. Asking which pathways towards food system resilience arise and which forms of social and environmental ...

Non‐thermal plasma decontamination of microbes: a state of the art
Abstract Microbial decontamination is a critical concern in various sectors, from healthcare to food processing. Traditional decontamination methods, while effective to a degree, present limitations in terms of environmental impact, efficiency, and potential harm to the target material. This review investigates the emerging realm of non‐thermal plasma (

ABSTRACT In recent years, much research has focused on the valorization of Crocus sativus by‐products as sources of bioactive compounds. This study was designed to investigate the impact of two different drying methods, freeze‐drying and air‐drying, on the phenolic content and antioxidant activity of leaves and tepals by‐products from C.

The three peptides RGD, DGEA, and KKGHK are covalently attached to the 2D nanomaterial graphene oxide (GO) to create new biomaterials for the treatment of severe bone injuries. These GO modifications improve cell spreading, stem cell differentiation into bone cell types, and formation of blood vessel‐like structures.

Bioactivity‐guided isolation led to the discovery of a potent and selective inhibitor of the phytopathogen Botrytis cinerea, pleosporacin (1), from mycelia extracts of the fungal strain Pleosporales sp. IBWF 020‐21. The biosynthesis of the nonribosomal cyclic lipodepsipeptide 1 was elucidated via heterologous reconstitution in Aspergillus oryzae ...

A ketol‐acid reductoisomerase inhibitor that has antituberculosis and herbicidal activity.
Ketol‐acid reductoisomerase (KARI) is a target for the development of new biocidal agents. This is based on its essential role in branched chain amino acid biosynthesis in plants and microorganisms, and its absence in animals. The lack of success in developing KARI inhibitors as biocides may be because the inhibitors assessed to date compete directly ...

Corn cob pyrolysis: A systematic literature review of methods and applications
Mapping the research landscape of corn cob pyrolysis. Abstractas The agricultural sector is experiencing a surge in waste generation due to population growth, creating an urgent need to convert byproducts into value‐added products. Maize (Zea mays L.), a leading global crop, produces significant byproducts, such as corn cob, which are often undervalued.
