Preparation and characterization of novel rice bran cellulose nanocrystals‐triphosphate composite for the stabilization of pickering emulsion

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Cellulose nanocrystals and sodium tripolyphosphate are combined through hydrogen bonding to form CNC–TPP complexes, which are subsequently suspended and subjected to shear mixing with corn oil to generate emulsion. The adsorption of CNC–TPP at the oil–water interface enhances the emulsion's stability and uniformity.

Application of current enteral nutrition support recommendations to infants born less than 750 grams or less than 25 weeks' gestation: A critical review

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Clinicians face a paucity of evidence‐based recommendations for provision of enteral nutrition in infants born <750 g or <25 weeks’ gestation, termed “nano‐preterm.” Current enteral nutrition recommendations for extremely low birth weight infants may not be broadly applicable to nano‐preterm infants due to physiological and developmental ...

Food Security Versus Environmental Health: The Nitrogen Dilemma

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nitrogen is an essential element for plant growth and, consequently, crop production. However, the cycling of nitrogen in the environment can have negative effects. Here, we review the historical development of scientific and public awareness of these effects and the influence this has had on political action to control them.
