Delipidisation of wool fibres and the subsequent beneficial properties of delipidised wool fibres
Abstract Wool fibres are complex matrices of proteins and fatty acids/lipids found both internally and externally. 18‐methyleicosanoic acid (18‐MEA) is covalently bound to the surface of the fibre via a thio‐ester link, and is considered one of the most important lipids as it is responsible for the hydrophobic properties of wool fibres.

Abstract This study investigates the electrochemical decolorization of waste acid dye baths and evaluates their potential reuse in subsequent textile dyeing processes. Four different anode materials (iron, aluminum, stainless steel and graphite) were examined to optimize color removal efficiency and assess the influence of electrochemically generated ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Suturing is a crucial step in oral surgery, directly affecting wound healing quality. Simple interrupted suture is widely used in dentistry, often performed by novices using silk sutures due to their ease of use and low cost. However, several alternatives could also be suitable for less experienced practitioners.

Aerobic scope is sustained through a heatwave in juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
Abstract Aquatic ectotherms are vulnerable to heatwave‐induced physiological stress, which arises from increased energy demands and reduced dissolved oxygen content in warmer waters. Understanding thermal physiology is critical for predicting how commercially and ecologically important populations could be affected by the increasing risk of rising ...

Protein fibrils can be synthesized from both conventional and by‐product protein sources, each having distinct advantages. Stabilization through polysaccharides and polyphenols can enhance fibril functional properties, such as gelling, foaming, and emulsification, thus furthering their application in food and non‐food materials.
