Thermal gasification of agro-industrial residues [PDF]

WIT Transactions on Ecology and the Environment, 2012
Farming and the agro-industrial sector generate large amounts of organic residues which have a high energetic potential and in most cases are not recovered. Various technologies, including those for energy and agricultural applications, have been considered for the economical valorization of these residues.

Quantitative proteomic analysis reveals different characteristics of bladder cancer cells after exposure to bisphenol A

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Bisphenol A (BPA), a common chemical in plastics, exerts dual effects on bladder cancer cells: low doses promote growth and migration, while high doses suppress growth and migration. Multi‐omics and bioinformatics reveal BPA acts via MAPK and inflammatory pathways.
