Extraction of Antimicrobial Peptides From Fava Bean Protein Hydrolyzate by Phosphorylated Biochar

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial peptides were extracted by functional biochar in one step. The enriched peptides demonstrated significantly enhanced antibacterial activity. ABSTRACT The extraction of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) from plant proteins remains challenging due to their low abundance, structural diversity, and the need for mild, efficient, and selective ...

The use of activated carbon derived from spent coffee grounds as a reusable, sustainable, and effective solution for the removal of butylparaben from water

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Parabens, including butylparaben (BP), are widely used as antimicrobial preservatives in food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals, yet are poorly removed by conventional water treatment processes and pose potential risks to aquatic life and human health.

Plastics and labor: The case of disposable medical plastics

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Plastics are ubiquitous in the contemporary practice of medicine, where they are tied to notions of hygiene and quality of care. However, when plastics first infiltrated global medical practice, they did so because of considerations related to patient comfort and durability.

Reply to Horta: Spectrum Arguments, the “Unhelpfulness” of Rejecting Transitivity, and Implications for Moral Realism

Law, Ethics and Philosophy, 2015
This article responds to Oscar Horta’s article “In Defense of the Internal Aspects View: Person-Affecting Reasons, Spectrum Arguments and Inconsistent Intuitions”. I begin by noting various points of agreement with Horta.

Aggregation and the Structure of Value

Noûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Roughly, the view I call “Additivism” sums up value across time and people. Given some standard assumptions, I show that Additivism follows from two principles. The first says that how lives align in time cannot, in itself, matter. The second says, roughly, that a world cannot be better unless it is better within some period or another.

Toward the Utilization of Char from the Hydrothermal Liquefaction of Polyethylene Plastic Waste: Studies of the Adsorption of Rhodamine B in an Aqueous Environment

Advanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 10, Issue 6, June 2026.
Hydrothermal liquefaction of waste polyethylene produces char that effectively removes rhodamine B from water. Nearly complete dye adsorption is achieved under optimum conditions, with adsorption following Langmuir isotherm and pseudo‐first‐order kinetics.

Study on the equilibrium and kinetics of nickel (II) adsorption on cellulose from peanut shell modified with chitosan

Vietnam Journal of Science, Technology and Engineering
In this study, cellulose was produced by activating peanut shells with 5% NaOH as an alkaline agent and bleaching with 5 wt.% H2O2. Before being modified with chitosan, the cellulose was slightly oxidized with ammonium persulfate to introduce carboxyl ...

Interfacial adsorption characteristics of surfactant‐modified nanoparticles: Equilibrium and dynamic effects of salinity at the oil–water interface

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 6, Page 2940-2957, June 2026.
Surfactant‐modified nanoparticles adsorb at the oil–water interface, enabling interfacial stabilization and microemulsion formation. Abstract This study systematically investigated the interfacial behaviour of silicon dioxide (SiO2) and aluminium oxide (Al2O3) nanoparticles (NPs) functionalized with cationic (CTAB), anionic (SDS), and nonionic (Triton ...
