Biosurfactant production by Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from mining waste: From genomic analysis to development of a polymeric composite for removal of hexavalent chromium

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Biosurfactant was produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa using andiroba waste from Amazonia. A biosurfactant–alginate composite (Alg/BioS) was successfully synthesized via ionotropic gelation, and achieved up to 70% Cr6+ removal from water. Abstract Environmental contamination by heavy metals represents a significant challenge due to their persistence in ...

Almond Shell‐Derived Cellulosic Microfibres: Extraction, Characterisation and Applications in Sustainable Paper‐Based Packaging

Packaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
Cellulosic microfibres were extracted from almond shells using organosolv, soda and kraft processes, and comprehensive physicochemical, surface, thermal and morphological characterisation demonstrated their strong potential as sustainable fillers for paper‐based packaging application. ABSTRACT This study develops pathways for the valorisation of almond

Sustainable Utilization and Fire Protection of Wood‐Based Composites in Buildings: Innovations, Challenges, and Future Directions

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increasing use of wood and wood‐based composites in construction reflects a global shift toward renewable materials that support sustainable development objectives, including carbon reduction and responsible resource use. While wood offers substantial environmental benefits compared to conventional materials such as concrete and steel, its

Low Temperature Site‐Specific Pulsed Laser Annealing of MoS2

Small, EarlyView.
The application of laser pulses, of extremely short duration, is investigated as a potential new method to modify the atomic structure of ultrathin 2D materials for use in the creation of future electrical devices. The process is efficient, offering a site‐specific functionality, where regions of an electronic device that only requires annealing is ...

Enhanced Biocatalysis in Nanofluidic Membrane Reactors With Goldilocks Nanopores for Enzymes

Small, EarlyView.
We show that enzyme confinement within the three‐dimensionally interconnected nanochannels of a polyurea molecular network membrane, featuring pore‐size tunability to match the enzyme size, enables a highly active nanofluidic reactor platform. Stable continuous‐flow operation for >200 h and a 30 000‐fold increase in specific space‐time yield over ...

RNA‐DNA Fusomer Fibers With Customizable Physicochemical, Mechanical, and Biological Properties for Next‐Generation Therapeutics

Small, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We introduce RNA‐DNA fusomers, a new class of chemically synthesized oligonucleotides that combine the versatile properties of RNA and DNA within a single sequence and self‐assemble into higher‐order functional structures via a simple one‐pot annealing reaction.
