Abstract The macaúba fruit, native to tropical and subtropical regions, has received considerable attention in recent years as a promising raw material for the production of advanced biofuels in Brazil. However, the development of large‐scale biomass requires overcoming significant challenges, such as designing circular biorefineries.

Integrating renewable energy with electrochemical conversion and storage is crucial for sustainable energy solutions. Nitrogen‐doped biomass‐derived carbon materials have emerged as effective catalysts for key reactions such as ORR, HER, and CO2RR. This review explores their synthesis, functionalization, characterization, and catalytic applications ...

Composite design bioinspired by the mesocarp of Brazil nut (Bertholletia excelsa)
Abstract The mesocarp of Bertholletia excelsa is a rich source of inspiration for strong, stiff and damage-tolerant composites. The bioinspired composites developed here are composed of an epoxy matrix with a 3D printed polylactic acid reinforced with 30% of carbon fiber (PLA-30CF) inspired in fibers, and syntactic foam inspired by ...

Mango Seed Valorization: Sustainable Source of Nutrients, Bioactives, and Value‐Added Applications
Highlighting mango seed as a valuable yet overlooked by‐product, promoting its utilization and reducing agroindustrial waste. ABSTRACT Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is one of the most widely cultivated tropical fruits, generating large quantities of by‐products during processing, with mango seed representing 20%–25% of the whole fruit weight ...

The fractionation of the fatty acid synthetase activities of avocado mesocarp plastids [PDF]
1. The range of fatty acids formed by preparations of ultrasonically ruptured avocado mesocarp plastids was dependent on the substrate. Whereas [1-14C]palmitate and [14C]oleate were the major products obtained from [-14C]acetate and [1-14C]acetyl-CoA, the principal product from [2-14C]malonyl-CoA was [14-C]stearate. 2.

Abstract Edible oils are essential dietary constituents that contribute as energy source, fatty acids and medium for fat‐soluble vitamins. High temperature during frying induces changes in the fatty acid profile of edible oils. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the influence of high temperature (230 ± 5°C) and duration of heating (0, 1, 2

Abstract BACKGROUND Olive maturity governs lot destination and the yield–quality trade‐off in olive oil production, yet it is still monitored by subjective visual scoring of the Jaén index. Spectroscopic alternatives have relied mainly on near‐infrared instruments, with scarce evidence from Brazilian orchards and almost no evaluation of spatial or ...
