Connecting tradition and technology: The digitization of the ethnobotanical collection at the Rio de Janeiro Botanical Garden

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1104-1115, July 2026.
The digitization of RBetno (JBRJ) represents a step forward for biodiversity conservation in Brazil. Aligned with the Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (Target 2, 2020–2030), this project documents the use of plants, including traditional knowledge and vernacular names, with a focus on the Atlantic Forest and Amazon.

Transcript Profiling of Hevea brasiliensis during Latex Flow

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Latex exploitation enhances latex regeneration in rubber trees. The latex exploitation-caused latex flow lasts from 10 min to a few hours, which is convenient for exploring the transcript profiling of latex metabolism-related genes at the different ...

Occupational Contact Urticaria, Protein Contact Dermatitis and Concomitant Airway Diseases in the Finnish Register of Occupational Diseases in 2005–2020: Main Causes and Occupations at Risk

Contact Dermatitis, Volume 95, Issue 1, Page 74-85, July 2026.
This Finnish registry study shows that concomitant occupational asthma and rhinitis are common in patients with occupational contact urticaria or protein contact dermatitis, often sharing the same exposure. When evaluating occupational immediate allergy, both skin and airway symptoms should be considered.

Creaming of Rubber Latex

, 1941
The creaming of rubber latex was first observed as far back as 1824 when Hancock, working with what was probably Castilloa latex, observed that if this latex is well shaken with three or four times its volume of water and then allowed to stand, a ...

Influence of Secondary Brown Carbon Aerosol Lifetime on Radiative Properties

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract Brown carbon (BrC), a light‐absorbing organic aerosol, exhibits higher absorption coefficients at short wavelengths. Partial BrC can be formed via secondary process. In this study, we isolated the secondary BrC (σabs,sec BrC) between urban surface and mountain stations (which receive surface pollutants during convective mixing) to investigate ...

The Polymerization of Vinyl Monomers in Natural-Rubber Latex

, 1956
Practical methods are described for polymerizing methacrylic esters, styrene, and other vinyl monomers in natural-rubber latex. The larger rubber particles require an appreciable time to attain equilibrium with the monomer diffusing into them from a ...
