Green and Sustainable Production of Edible Pullulan/Whey Nanofibers Loaded With Black Cumin (Nigella sativa) Waste Extract

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, the electrospinning method was used to create green synthesis sustainable pullulan and whey protein nanofibers loaded with black cumin waste extract. FE‐SEM imaging, FTIR, XRD, DSC, total phenolic content determination, total antioxidant activity determination, and antibacterial activity assessment were used to characterize the ...

Polyvinyl Alcohol‐Based Cryogels: Design, Characterization, and In Vitro Biological Studies

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using inappropriate wound dressings makes the wound prone to bacteria invasion, impeding the wound‐healing process. In this work, cryogels were prepared from selected polymers, such as polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC), and sodium alginate (SA) via a freeze–thaw method and loaded with Capparis sepiaria plant extract ...

Chromosome‐scale reference genome of Pectocarya recurvata, the species with the smallest reported genome size in Boraginaceae

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Pectocarya recurvata (Boraginaceae, subfamily Cynoglossoideae), a species native to the Sonoran Desert (North America), has served as a model system for a suite of ecological and evolutionary studies. However, no reference genomes are currently available in Cynoglossoideae. A high‐quality reference genome for P.

Toward Carbon‐Free Cathodes for Fluoride Ion Batteries: Deconvoluting Effects of Active Material and Conductive Additive on Charging and Cyclic Stability

Batteries &Supercaps, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that the cyclic stability of all‐solid‐state fluoride ion batteries can be improved substitution of carbon by conductive oxide nanoparticles or the application of high stack pressure. Both methods avoid carbon fluorination as a parasitic side reaction, increasing coulombic efficiency and enabling high cyclic stability at high ...

Exploiting agricultural residues for sustainable bioconversion: production of cellulolytic and lignin‐degrading enzymes

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Agroindustrial activity generates substantial waste during harvesting and processing. This study investigated the potential use of sugarcane bagasse, corn cob husk, and wheat bran as substrates for enzyme production by Aspergillus niger and Ceriporiopsis subvermispora. Aspergillus niger and C. subvermispora exhibited comparable filter paperase

Assessment of Anticancer Effects of Aloe vera on 3D Liver Tumor Spheroids in a Microfluidic Platform

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
The comparative effects of Doxorubicin and Aloe vera on HepG2 spheroids grown in a microfluidic device are illustrated in the graphical abstract. In the upper panel, red markers indicate that Doxorubicin treatment primarily induces necrosis in the spheroids.

Optimizing biophysical properties of cellular niches to enhance stem cell‐derived extracellular vesicle function in musculoskeletal regeneration

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from stem cells show promise for applications in regenerative medicine, but their scalability and yield remain challenges. This review explores the approaches for biophysical modulations within cell niches on EV properties, discusses the current clinical application of EVs, and provides an outlook on the existing ...

Elucidating the Interplay Between Structure and Electrochemical Behavior in Lignin‐Based Polymer Electrolytes for Potassium Batteries

Battery Energy, Volume 4, Issue 2, March 2025.
Three biobased membranes are synthesized by crosslinking oxidized Kraft lignin with poly(ethylene glycol) diglycidyl ether of increasing molecular weights. After incorporation of solvated potassium salts, potassium batteries including these biobased gel polymer electrolytes are able to deliver a maximum specific capacity at 0.05 A g−1 as high as 130 ...
