Method Based on Continuous Artificial Dry and Humid UV Treatments to Reduce the Luminescence Background in the Raman Spectra of Plastics

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
We propose an UV photobleaching pretreatment to reduce the strong luminescence in the Raman spectra of plastic samples. Our protocol proves its efficiency whatever the luminescence origin (from the pigments or from a surface biofilm) but requires a careful optimization of the illumination conditions (UV wavelength, time, humidity) to reach the ...

Assessing the hidden risks of non‐thermal processing: Ultrasound‐induced toxicity of cashew apple juice in a zebrafish model

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Background High‐intensity ultrasound is widely advocated for the preservation of liquid foods; however, the potential formation or release of toxic compounds during processing remains under‐investigated. This study evaluated the toxicological profile of cashew apple juice processed by high‐intensity ultrasound (1250, 1875, and 2500 W;L⁻¹ ...

Microbially driven organic carbon cycling at the land−sea interface: Advances and an integrated study framework

mLife, EarlyView.
Abstract The land−sea interface is a vital component of global biogeochemical cycles, where microorganisms drive the cycling of carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur. This review synthesizes the research progress from representative land−sea interfaces to elucidate how the microbial community structure and metabolic function influence the mobilization ...

The dominance of non‐native plants over native plants increases with the number of global change factors

Oikos, EarlyView.
Global environmental change and plant invasion are both recognized as key indicators of the Anthropocene. Still, how the number of co‐acting global change factors (GCFs) influence invaded plant communities remains unclear, even though in nature GCFs usually act together rather than alone.

Effect of Accelerated Aging on the Performances of 3D Printed Polylactic Acid‐Polyhydroxyalkanoate Specimens

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
The accelerated aging behaviours on the FFF‐fabricated PLA‐PHA Specimens. ABSTRACT Despite the increasing use of biodegradable polymers in additive manufacturing, their long‐term durability remains insufficiently understood. The aim of this study to investigate the influence of accelerated aging on the performance of fused filament fabrication‐printed ...

Unsaturated biobased polyesters from bicyclic α‐pinene‐based diols

Polymer International, EarlyView.
We present the synthesis of four biosourced unsaturated polyesters made from chiral terpene‐based diols and esters of renewable diacids. The resulting materials harbor a bicyclic pinene ring in their backbones which leads to enhanced thermal properties while still conferring susceptibility to enzyme hydrolysis for chains having a cis alkene.

Synthesis and application of alginate@CuFe2O4 polymeric spheres in 17‐β‐estradiol adsorption processes in Amazonian rivers

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Magnetic alginate beads, functionalized with copper ferrite, effectively remove 17‐β‐estradiol from Amazonian water, exhibiting optimized 238.65 μg g−1 capacity, fast 40 min kinetics, easy recovery, and successful remediation. Abstract The presence of endocrine‐disrupting compounds, such as 17‐β‐estradiol, in aquatic ecosystems poses a significant ...
