Responsible Leadership for Sustainable Agritourism: A Multilevel Causal Mechanism Analysis and the Facilitating Roles of Social Capital

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the causal mechanisms by which responsible leadership (RL) promotes sustainable agritourism development in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam. Using focus groups and multiple case studies across five exemplary agritourism operations, we examine how RL operates across multiple levels to influence sustainable agritourism outcomes.

The Impact of Glycation on Protein Digestibility

open access: yesChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
Schematic overview of how protein glycation affects digestibility and downstream nutritional consequences. Glycation‐derived structural modifications reduce protease accessibility, leading to limited hydrolysis and altered peptide generation. These changes decrease amino acid bioavailability and may subsequently contribute to microbiome alterations ...

Selective Non‐Catalytic Reduction of NOx in the Exhaust Gas of Small Wood Gasification Boilers

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
Kinetic studies of the SNCR reaction were conducted to investigate NOx reduction in the exhaust gas of small‐scale wood gasification boilers. Both the experimental results and the derived global kinetic model indicate that SNCR can achieve a significant reduction in NOx emissions under typical operating conditions. ABSTRACT The gas‐phase reaction of NO
