Evolution of plant ribosome-inactivating proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This contribution presents an updated analysis of the evolution of ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) in plants. All evidence suggests that an ancestor of modern seed plants developed the RIP domain at least 300 million years ago.

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 ...
