Reducing Ammonia Emission during Food Waste Composting and Enhancing Compost Quality Using Different Additives

ChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
This research successfully reduces the ammonia emission by 45% and achieves good quality compost using additives (lactic acid or acetic acid) and bulking agents (mature compost or sawdust). The study supports Sustainable Development Goals 12 and 13 by promoting waste‐to‐resource option.

Direct extraction of functional whitened lignocellulose from wood via isocyanate modification in water–ethanol mixture

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Direct extraction of lignocellulose from wood derivatives was achieved by introducing a bulky isocyanate substituent to lignin in a water–ethanol mixture. This process exploits the tunable solvent affinity of lignin to achieve its whitening, enabling the isolation of lignocellulose.

Structural insights into xyloglucan recognition by an ABC transporter from a Gram‐positive, thermophilic bacterium

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Athe_2052 is an ABC transporter substrate‐binding protein that recognizes xyloglucan heptasaccharide (XXXG), a soluble breakdown product of plant xyloglucan. The crystal structure of Athe_2052, together with binding assays and computational modeling, shows how XXXG is recognized by this sugar transporter.

Empirical prediction of organic matter digestibility in grasses, legumes and their mixtures from dairy farms in Atlantic Spain

Grassland Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This study characterized the chemical composition and organic matter digestibility (OMD) of herbage from commercial dairy farms in Galicia (NW Spain), a humid‐temperate Atlantic region, and developed empirical prediction equations for OMD based on routine wet‐chemistry traits.
