Ultimate and Proximate Analysis of Malaysia Pineapple Biomass from MD2 Cultivar for Biofuel Application

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2018
MD2 pineapple is a highly demanded hybrid pineapple other than Josephine and Sarawak. The decomposition process of the pineapple biomass by burning may contribute towards carbon emission and increase the greenhouse effect.

Bio‐Based Multilayer Composites Based on Blended Electrospun Fibers and Luffa Cylindrica for Enhanced Low‐Frequency Noise Absorption

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Bio‐based multilayer composites consisting of Luffa Cylindrica and electrospun microfibers exhibit enhanced sound absorption, shifting peak performance towards lower frequencies. The multilayer configuration improves acoustic wave dissipation, providing a tunable and sustainable solution for urban and traffic‐related noise mitigation.

Effect of Wine Inhibitors on Free Pineapple Stem Bromelain Activity in a Model Wine System [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2011
The influence of potential inhibitors, naturally present in wine, on the activity of stem bromelain was investigated in order to evaluate the applicability of this enzyme for protein stabilization in white wine. Bromelain proteolytic activity was tested against a synthetic substrate (Bz-Phe-Val-Arg-pNA) in a model wine system after adding ethanol ...

Engineering compact Physalis peruviana (goldenberry) to promote its potential as a global crop

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Goldenberry (Physalis peruviana) produces sweet, nutritionally rich berries, yet like many minor crops, is cultivated in limited geographical regions and has not been a focus of breeding programs for trait enhancement. Leveraging knowledge of plant architecture‐related traits from related species, we used CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated gene editing to generate a

Nutritional properties, traditional uses and potential new applications for the sotol plant (Asparagaceae, Convallarioideae): A review

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Sotol (Dasylirion spp.) is a resilient desert plant that sustains ecosystems, cultures and livelihoods in Chihuahua Desert. Our review highlights its nutritional properties, traditional uses and potential new applications in food, pharmaceuticals, renewable energy and water remediation. By synthesizing evidence across disciplines, we show how sotol can

Single and dual RPA‐CRISPR/Cas assays for point‐of‐need detection of Stewart's wilt pathogen (Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii) of corn and Maize dwarf mosaic virus

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1988-1999, April 2025.
Schematic diagram of the single and dual RPA‐CRISPR/Cas12a/13a diagnostic assays for the detection of Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii and Maize dwarf mosaic virus. The validated assays provide a useful and sensitive molecular tool for detecting two quarantine pathogens of maize within a minimal resource framework suitable for fast‐tracking the ...

Environmental Mycotoxins and Brain Health: Protective Role of Bromelain Against Fumonisin B1 in SH‐SY5Y Cells

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fumonisin B1 (FB1), a mycotoxin commonly found in contaminated food and feed, has been increasingly implicated in neurotoxicity, although its mechanisms remain poorly understood. This study investigates the neurotoxic potential of FB1 in human SH‐SY5Y neuroblastoma cells, both undifferentiated and RA‐differentiated, and evaluates the ...

“A few more bites?”: Manifestation of pressure‐to‐eat in child care

open access: yesNutrition &Dietetics, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Pressuring children to eat can override hunger and satiety cues, which may lead to over‐ or under‐eating and food refusal. This study aims to describe the manifestations of pressure‐to‐eat in child care from early childhood educators. Methods A secondary data analysis was conducted using qualitative content analysis.
