Reduction of the formaldehyde content in leathers treated with formaldehyde resins by means of plant polyphenols [PDF]
Formaldehyde has applications in many industrial processes, including synthesis of resins and syntans to be used in the retanning process of leather. When resins are employed, they can hydrolyse, releasing formaldehyde.

Field Simulation of Global Change: Transplanting Northern Bog Mesocosms Southward [PDF]
A large proportion of northern peatlands consists of Sphagnum-dominated ombrotrophic bogs. In these bogs, peat mosses (Sphagnum) and vascular plants occur in an apparent stable equilibrium, thereby sustaining the carbon sink function of the bog ecosystem.
