Sustainable Palm Oil Extraction and Trends in the Use of Green Technologies: State‐of‐the‐Art and Future Directions

open access: yesJournal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Palm oil, which is extracted from the mesocarp of the fruit of the Elaeis guineensis Jacq. palm tree, is the most widely produced vegetable oil in the world. The extraction of this substance typically utilizes the conventional pressing method, a technique that is advantageous due to its low operating cost and simplified process.

Characterizing Heterogeneity in Post‐Consumer Rigid PP Packaging Waste: Implications for Object and Property‐Based Flake Sorting

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Commercial PP packaging grades span wide ranges in melt flow rate and stiffness, defining distinct application‐specific property spaces. Post‐consumer rigid PP products populate these spaces heterogeneously, with processing method and degradation shifting properties beyond virgin grade benchmarks.

Hedging bond portfolios versus infinitely many ranked factors of risk [PDF]

open access: yes
The paper considers bond portfolios affected by both interest-rate- and default-risk. In order to guarantee a correct performance of our analysis we will hedge against an infinite number of factors. Hence we do not have to impose and do not depend on any

Increased plasma microbial tDR‐1 in at‐risk individuals is associated with decreased conversion to clinical rheumatoid arthritis and reduces an in vitro macrophage type 1 interferon response

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Background Microbial small RNAs (sRNAs) can regulate human genes. Higher plasma concentrations of microbial tRNA‐derived RNA‐1 (tDR‐1) were previously associated with lower rheumatoid arthritis (RA) disease activity. This study examined whether tDR‐1 concentrations differ in anti‐cyclic citrullinated peptide‐3 positive (CCP3+) at‐risk individuals (ARI)

Reigniting engagement: A multidisciplinary, authentic case‐based approach to anatomy and physiology education for medical imaging students

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomy and physiology are foundational to health science education, yet student engagement in these modules often declines during later years of study. This discursive article aims to describe a teaching intervention which increased student engagement and provide educator reflection of implementation and improvement over time.

Beyond knowledge: Cultivating noncognitive skills and attributes through anatomy education

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomy education has historically prioritized cognitive knowledge acquisition and technical skills, such as spatial awareness and manual dexterity. Noncognitive attributes, essential for early‐stage learners, such as social skills, motivation, emotional intelligence, self‐regulation, self‐efficacy, and resilience, have remained comparatively ...

Integration of the arts and biomedical engineering in innovative interdisciplinary anatomy education: The synthetic anatomy module

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The intersection of science and art has historically fostered innovation, yet the integration of creative arts into anatomy education remains limited. The Synthetic Anatomy module was designed to bridge anatomy teaching with creative design for bioscience and biomedical engineering students. This study evaluates the module's educational impact
