Effect of Polylactic Acid (PLA) as Reinforcement for Jackfruit Seed Starch-Based Degradable Plastic

Engineering Proceedings
Synthetic plastics harm the environment, so finding better materials is important. Researchers have studied PLA and starch to replace non-degradable petrochemicals. This research uses jackfruit seed starch and PLA to make degradable plastics. The tensile

Utilization of Jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) Seed as a Bread Spread

Abstract Proceedings International Scholars Conference, 2018
Jackfruit is the largest tree-borne fruit in the world.  It is a widely cultivated and well-consumed fruit in the Philippines and other parts of South-east Asia.  The seed makes up 15-18% of the fruit weight. However, the seeds are underutilized due to the lack of information about its nutritional and food product potential.

Rising Tides, Falling Harvests: Examining the Effects of Salinity Intrusion on Paddy Production in Vietnam's Mekong Delta

Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 77, Issue 2, Page 771-785, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Rising sea levels and salinity intrusion increasingly threaten rice farming in Vietnam's Mekong Delta. Using a district‐level panel dataset from 2000 to 2020, this study examines the impacts of salinity on Winter–Spring rice yields and acreage and how farmers adapt to salinity risk.

Germination Impact in the Nutrition and Technological Properties of Jackfruit Seeds

Journal of Agricultural Studies, 2020
The objective of this study was the production of flour from germinated jackfruit seeds. The seeds were germinated and dried at temperatures of 55, 65 and 75 °C under air drying speed of 1.0 and 1.3 m s-1. Afterward, the seeds were grounded in order to obtain the flour and characterized for chemical, physical and technological properties.

Mimicking the Ocean: Critical Challenges in Scaffold Design and Tissue Texturization for Cell‐Cultured Seafood

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Cellular aquaculture offers a sustainable solution to global seafood demand, yet the production of high‐value, whole‐cut fillets is hindered by the “texture gap,” the inability to replicate the complex, anisotropic architecture of native fish muscle and its collagenous myosepta.

Generalist With a Narrow Niche Breadth: Feeding Ecology and Seed Germination Effectiveness of a Large Canid Within a Silvicultural Matrix

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 6, June 2026.
Diet: The generalist canid exhibits a narrow niche breadth (0.12), consuming native plants (100% frequency) and animals (85%). Birds dominate animal prey (74%), peaking in the dry season, while Solanaceae plants dominate plant food (100%), peaking in the rainy season.

A Comprehensive Review of Waste‐Derived Materials for Solar Still Performance Enhancement

Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 9, 5 May 2026.
Solar desalination reduces energy use and produces freshwater sustainably, but its productivity is limited and cannot meet rising demand. Thus, solar desalination system improvements are sought to boost water productivity. Waste materials are abundantly available and burden the environment, making them low‐cost enhancers for solar desalination systems.
