Symmetrical Jute/JUCO/Glass hybrid epoxy composites were reinforced with TiO2 and CuO microparticles. Incorporating 3 wt.% CuO increased tensile strength by up to 63.7%, while 3 wt.% TiO2 maximized flexural and impact properties alongside superior moisture resistance, demonstrating that these fillers significantly enhance natural fiber biocomposites ...

The present study examined the succession and carbon source utilization of fungi associated with moss profiles and to identify the metabolic traits that were linked to the successional status. We showed that the successional status of microfungi in decomposing tissues of Hylocomium splendens was affected not by the taxonomic group but by the potential ...

ABSTRACT Leymus chinensis (sheepgrass), a dominant perennial grass of the Eurasian Steppe, is a crucial source of carbohydrates and energy for ruminants. However, the lignocellulose recalcitrance severely limits its digestibility. Here, we targeted xylan, a major hemicellulose interacting with cellulose and lignin in cell wall. To improve digestibility,

Renewable 5‐chloromethylfurfural (CMF), a more stable analog of HMF, was converted to 1‐hydroxy‐2,5‐hexanedione (HHD), a versatile intermediate toward cyclopentenones, pyrroles and aromatic compounds, via a cascade hydrolysis/hydrogenation reaction. α‐Angelicalactone was obtained as a side product. It was also possible to convert CMF to γ‐valerolactone,

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

ABSTRACT Yeast sugar transporters have highly evolved for preferential glucose transport, a significant roadblock for utilizing non‐glucose sugars in renewable feedstocks such as lignocellulosic biomass. To enable simultaneous transport of multiple sugars, native hexose transporters were replaced by SWEET7p from Arabidopsis thaliana in engineered ...
