Effect of CaCl2 Treatment on Enzymatic Browning of Fresh-Cut Luffa (Luffa cylindrica) [PDF]
Enzymatic browning is a major issue that reduces the commercial value of Luffa cylindrica during storage, processing, and transportation. Our results showed that 1% CaCl2 treatment was optimal for reducing the surface browning of fresh-cut luffa.

Pseudo-Cryptanalysis of Luffa [PDF]
In this paper, we present the pseudo-collision, pseudo-second-preimage and pseudo-preimage attacks on the SHA-3 candidate algorithm Luffa. The pseudo-collisions and pseudo-second-preimages can be found easily by computing the inverse of the message injection function at the beginning of Luffa. We explain in details the pseudo-preimage attacks.

Characterization of Luffa-reinforced Polyaniline Films [PDF]
Herein, Polyaniline (PANI)/polyethylene oxide (PEO) - luffa cylindrica bio-composite films of various mass fractions (%) have been prepared via casting solution of emeraldine base polyaniline and cellulose extracted from luffa.

Compression Responses of Bio-Cellular Luffa Sponges [PDF]
Crushing behaviors of luffa sponges were studied through mechanical experiments. Controlled by four-order hierarchical and anisotropic structures, luffa sponges exhibit anisotropic responses along axial, radial, and circumferential directions.

A multiscale study on the structural and mechanical properties of the luffa sponge from Luffa cylindrica plant [PDF]
Cellular materials that are often observed in biological systems exhibit excellent mechanical properties at remarkably low densities. Luffa sponge is one of such materials with a complex interconnecting porous structure. In this paper, we studied the relationship between its structural and mechanical properties at different levels of its hierarchical ...

Characterization and Comparative Study on Chemically Treated Luffa Fiber as Reinforcement for Polylactic Acid Bio-composites [PDF]
Luffa reinforced polylactic acid (PLA) bio-composites were prepared and examined. The luffa surface was treated using three chemicals, i.e., sodium hydroxide, 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, and acetic anhydride, which enhanced luffa compatibility with ...
