Assembling Hexahedral Supramolecular Nano‐Aggregates on Rice Wax Layer Matrices to Promote the Leaf Deposition and Bioavailability of Bactericides for Plant Protections

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
To address the problem of off‐target movement and low bioavailability of pesticides, two anisotropic supramolecular building units (BiTA18@β‐CD and BiTA18@γ‐CD) have been invented that can self‐assemble into nano‐sized hexagonal cuboids on the rice microcrystalline matrix. This manipulation realizes the enhanced utilization of bactericides for rice and

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

open access: yesBiofuels, 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
