Styrene and its natural analogues: accumulation and sustainable production methods
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract
Styrene, also known as vinyl benzene, is a colourless, highly volatile petrochemical that serves as a key monomer in the production of polystyrene and styrene‐butadiene rubber. Its industrial synthesis via the alkylation of benzene with ethylene relies on fossil fuels, requiring high temperatures and toxic catalysts that contribute to ...Mwafaq Ibdah, Giovanni D'Ambrosio, Prasada Rao Kongala, Sureshkumar Mesara, Annalisa Serio, Bharadwaj Revuru, Antonello Paparella +6 morewiley +1 more sourceLeucaena Oil Functionalized With Osmium Tetroxide as a Precursor for Polyol‐Based Polyurethane
Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.Leucaena leucocephala seed oil is converted into a hydroxyl‐functional biopolyol through OsO4‐mediated dihydroxylation. The resulting biopolyol shows a hydroxyl number of 160–175 mg KOH g−1 and is successfully used to produce flexible, open‐cell polyurethane foams, highlighting a renewable route for converting underutilized biomass into value‐added ...Giovanni Miraveti Carriello, Lucas Repecka Alves, Guilherme Manassés Pegoraro, Henrique Solowej Medeiros Lopes, Amanda Stefanie Jabur de Assis, Thaís de Agrella Janolla, David Rodrigues Gomes, Diego Aleixo da Silva, Beatriz Merillas, Fabiana Aparecida Lobo, Fabio Minoru Yamaji, Maira de Lourdes Rezende, Aparecido Junior de Menezes, Giovanni Pimenta Mambrini +13 morewiley +1 more sourceAccidental plant poisonings in France: Lessons from a decade of national toxicovigilance
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Accidental plant poisonings reveal how modern societies are losing everyday botanical knowledge once central to food and health safety. By analyzing a decade of French toxicovigilance data, this study shows that most severe cases arise from plant misidentification or misguided self‐medication.Gaël Le Roux, Adrien Maillot, Sylvie Michel, Jérôme Langrand, Sébastien Larréché, Christine Tournoud, David Boels, Magali Labadie, Nicolas Delcourt, Nathalie Paret, Luc de Haro, Sandra Sinno‐Tellier +11 morewiley +1 more sourceSoil health assessment using buried cotton underpants with the help of 1000 citizen scientists
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Soil is a vital resource for life on Earth. Although many soils are degraded, societal awareness of soil‐related issues is limited. To highlight soil as a key resource and fascinating study system, we initiated a citizen science project together with 1000 participants investigating soil health across Switzerland using buried cotton underpants.S.

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT
Catechins are a group of flavonoids found primarily in green tea, fruits, and berries; they play a significant role in the modulation of the gut microbiota, thereby having an impact on gut health and cancer prevention. Owing to their low bioavailability, catechins are transformed by the gut microbiota into various bioactive metabolites such as Prakash Monika, Bindu Sadanandan, Honnamachanahalli Ramachandraiah Tejashree, Maitreyi Darbha, Kirti Gupta, Srinivas Reneeka +5 morewiley +1 more source
