Studies on physical properties of wine palm and Roselle natural fibers

Journal of Natural Fibers, 2019
In this work, fiber strands of Wine Palm (Caryota urens) and Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa) plants were extracted and characterized. The extracted fiber strands were given water treatment for making comparisons with its dried counterpart.

Molecular Diagnostics in Thyroid Nodules: Current Applications, Clinical Value, and Future Perspective

Med Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Molecular diagnostics have become an important adjunct to ultrasonography and fine‐needle aspiration (FNA) for thyroid nodules, especially in Bethesda III/IV cytology where malignancy risk is uncertain. This narrative review summarizes the diagnostic and prognostic value of key genomic drivers (BRAF V600E, RAS, RET, TERT, and selected fusions)

Uncovering the Complexity of Synucleinopathies: An Ongoing Tale Between Proteins and Lipids

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Neurodegenerative diseases are pathological states characterized by progressive alterations in brain homeostasis during aging. Synucleinopathies, including Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies, are defined neuropathologically by the accumulation of inclusions known as Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites.

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF BANANA PSEUDO-STEM WOVEN FABRIC TREATED WITH SOFTENING AGENT

Journal of Academia, 2020
Fibres from banana’s stem are abundantly available in Malaysia. This study focused on the production of woven fabric from banana pseudo-stem fibres. Yarn made of 100% banana stem and 100% cotton yarn were produced.

Evaluating mechanism of banana pseudo-stem retting using seawater: A cost-effective surface pre-treatment approach

Journal of Bioresources and Bioproducts
Retting has been employed to extract natural fibers from agricultural wastes as a biological and cost-effective approach for centuries. With its global abundance, banana pseudo-stem is a promising agro-waste for lignocellulosic fiber extraction.

Impact of the sand bed on stability of cobblestone pavement

Budownictwo i Architektura, 2014
The observation of public transportation bus bays in Lublin (and probably in other cities) made of concrete or stone blocks pavement shows that on many streets it is not very durable.

Linking Process‐Induced Degradation to Mechanical Property Deterioration in Flax Fiber–Reinforced Bio‐Polymer Matrix Composites

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Effect of processing‐induced thermal degradation on the mechanical performance of thermoplastic flax fiber composites. ABSTRACT The drawback of biobased polymer matrix composites (PMCs) is their limited temperature stability, resulting from degradation, which restricts their processability in established composite manufacturing processes requiring ...

Extraction and Characterization of Sustainable Cellulosic Fibers from Urera Hypselodendron Plant

Journal of Natural Fibers
Nowadays, researchers are paying more attention to natural fibers because they are under-dominated by synthetic fibers. This is implied in terms of their low cost, renewability, biodegradability, and the need for low energy for their production.
