Feasibility of Recycled Polypropylene for Reusable Food Packaging: Effects of Reuse Conditions on Packaging Performance, Material Properties, and Microbial Safety

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
This study demonstrates that postindustrial recycled polypropylene (PIR PP) performs comparably to virgin polypropylene in reusable food packaging. After 20 simulated reuse cycles, including heating and commercial washing, PIR PP retained its structural, chemical, and microbial safety properties, supporting its potential for safe and sustainable ...

Remodeling the Inflammatory Microenvironment: Nanomaterial‐Based Targeted Strategies for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Lupus Nephritis

open access: yesSmall Science, Volume 6, Issue 3, March 2026.
Current treatments for severe lupus nephritis are limited by side effects due to poor drug targeting. This review explores how smart nanomaterials—like liposomes and biomimetic carriers—can precisely deliver drugs to overactive immune cells and the kidneys. These nanotherapeutics enhance efficacy, reduce toxicity, and enable combination strategies. The

Evaluating Low‐Frequency Ultrasound as a Pretreatment to Improve Ozonation Antimicrobial Efficacy in Urban Wastewater Treatment

open access: yesWater Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 3, March 2026.
In urban wastewater contaminated with Salmonella enterica, Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecium, and Pseudomonas fluorescens, a low‐frequency ultrasound pretreatment enhanced the antimicrobial effectiveness of ozonation. Additionally, pretreatment led to energy and cost savings compared to ozonation alone, highlighting the potential of this ...

Controle da biossíntese de poli-hidroxialcanoatos bacterianos através do fluxo de substratos Control of the biosynthesis of bacterial polyhydroxyalkanoates through the flux of substrates

open access: yesQuímica Nova, 2007
Manipulation of the flux of substrates was utilized to control the amount of 3-hydroxyvalerate and 3-hydroxy-4-pentenoate produced by Burkohlderia sp. The 3HV production rate was directly proportional to the propionic acid uptake rate with the last one ...
