Tailorable Nanoparticles for Magnetic Water Cleaning of Polychlorinated Biphenyls
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are human‐made persistent organic pollutants omnipresent in the earth's hydrosphere, which are reported hazardous to humans as well as wildlife. This study presents surface functionalized magnetic nanoparticles that can remove such contaminants from water with an adjustable preference for most concerning compounds ...

Assessing the ability of white-rot fungi to tolerate polychlorinated biphenyls using predictive mycology [PDF]
The aim of the present study was to assess the ability of different white-rot fungi to tolerate polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) using predictive mycology, by relating fungal growth inhibition to ligninolityc enzyme secretion.

Abstract In the coming decades, there is expected to be a sharply increased demand for dietary proteins for humans and animals. As a result, there is an increasing focus on reared insects as a new source of protein. According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality (LNV), the use of food chain residual flows such as former foodstuffs as

Evaluation of a new extraction system for rapid measurement of surface lipid content of rice for degree of milling estimation [PDF]
Few fruit thinners have been certified for organic fruit growers. Previous studies have shown that herbicides or shade are capable of reducing photosynthesis and are effective fruit-thinning techniques, although impractical. This project evaluated use of
