Technobiological Pathways for High‐CO₂ Capture Using Micro‐/Macroalgae: Genetic Engineering, Process Automation, and Value‐Added Bioproducts

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 21, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have emerged as one of the most critical drivers of climate change; this is primarily due to high concentrations and long atmospheric life of carbon dioxide (CO2). For a significant amount of time, various biological processes such as microalgal cultivation, cyanobacterial systems, photosynthetic microorganisms ...

Preparation and Characterization of Polyhydroxybutyrate/Polycaprolactone Nanocomposites [PDF]

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB)/polycaprolactone (PCL)/stearate Mg-Al layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanocomposites were prepared via solution casting intercalation method. Coprecipitation method was used to prepare the anionic clay Mg-Al LDH from nitrate salt solution. Modification of nitrate anions by stearate anions between the LDH layers via ion exchange

Robust Bioconjugated Antigens Induce Immune Responses Preventing Malaria Infection and its Transmission

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 28, 18 May 2026.
Engineered malaria antigens enable in vivo bioconjugation to submicron biopolymer particles in E. coli. Two antigens are co‐tethered at high density and defined stoichiometry. The resulting thermostable particles elicit strong, durable antibody and T‐cell responses, conferring robust protection and blocking mosquito transmission.

Printed PHBV‐Based Sensors as a Real‐Time Proxy for Soil Microbial Decomposer Activity During Drought and Flood Recovery

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
Novel sensors that can be made cheaply (1) are deployed in multiple pots (2). These have either nutrient‐poor soil with a biodiverse community or arable soil with wheat plants which are subjected to droughts and flood stresses (2). We show the sensors can track decomposition through time at high temporal resolution while and after the pots are stressed,
