Enhanced Degradation of Vinyl Copolymers Based on Lipoic Acid
Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 1345-1351, 15 March 2025.ABSTRACT The introduction of degradable units into the backbone of commodity vinyl polymers represents a major opportunity to address the societal challenge of plastic waste and polymer recycling. Previously, we reported the facile copolymerization of α‐lipoic acid derivatives containing 1,2‐dithiolane rings with vinyl monomers leading to the ...

Does European Aflatoxin Regulation Hurt Groundnut Exporters from Africa? [PDF]
We provide an ex-post econometric examination of the harmonization and tightening of the EU Maximum Residues Limit (MRL) on aflatoxins in 2002, and its impact on African exports of groundnut products. We show that the MRL set by the EU has no significant

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.A risk classification of registered pesticides in Brazil was conducted, and the contribution of food to cumulative pesticide exposure was evaluated. Model diets were proposed, based on Brazilian consumption patterns. Abstract BACKGROUND Pesticide residue exposure assessments can be carried out during both the pre‐regulation and post‐regulation phases ...
