A Fast Method for Selecting Bio Sourced Materials of Interest in a Candle Formulation

open access: yesJournal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, Volume 103, Issue 5, Page 423-433, May 2026.
ABSTRACT As consumer demand shifts towards more sustainable and nontoxic alternatives, the candle industry is exploring unconventional bio‐based and recycled materials as substitutes for paraffin. Four raw materials, that is rice bran wax (RBW), sugarcane wax (SCW), hydrogenated rapeseed oil (HRO), and waste cooking oil (WCO) were assessed based on ...

From Wet Chemistry to Portable NIR: Robust High‐Throughput Compositional Models for Biomass Pretreatment

open access: yesJournal of Chemometrics, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study demonstrates a robust chemometric framework for high‐throughput compositional analysis of lignocellulosic biomass using a portable near‐infrared (NIR) spectrometer. Sugarcane bagasse solids produced by pressurized solvent fractionation (PSF) under batch and continuous conditions were analyzed to predict cellulose, hemicellulose, and

Spatial Distribution, Abundance, and Threats to the Indian Pangolin (Manis crassicaudata) in Buner District, Lesser Himalayas

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
First quantitative study of the Indian pangolin population in Buner District. GIS mapping revealed uneven spatial distribution across elevation zones. ABSTRACT The Indian pangolin (Manis crassicaudata), an elusive and endangered mammal, remains poorly studied in Pakistan, particularly in the mountain landscapes of the Lesser Himalayas.

Soil Property Responses to Push‐Pull Cropping in East Africa

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Push‐pull technology is increasingly promoted in sub‐Saharan Africa, particularly for pest management and enhancing crop productivity. However, its influence on soil properties remains understudied, despite its potential implications for soil health and sustainable soil fertility management. This study examines soil properties in push‐pull and

Green Proteins: A Sustainable Alternative to Animal‐Based Proteins for Global Protein Security

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 3, May 2026.
This study highlights the drawbacks associated with animal‐based proteins, such as their contribution to greenhouse gas emissions, large‐scale land use, and worsening food insecurity. It suggests that green sources of proteins, including legumes, grains, seeds, leaves, and algae, are possible sustainable alternatives. Shifting towards these plant‐based

Unlocking the Hepatoprotective Potential of Cyperus rotundus Through Edible Vinegar Processing: A Study on Functional Ingredient Enhancement

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Cyperus rotundus L. (CR) and vinegar‐processed CR (VCR) were compared in mouse models of thioacetamide (TAA)‐induced acute and chronic liver injury. VCR exhibited better hepatoprotective effects than raw CR. Composition analysis revealed 35 components in VCR, among which α‐cyperone was present at higher levels than in raw CR.
