Leucaena Oil Functionalized With Osmium Tetroxide as a Precursor for Polyol‐Based Polyurethane

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Leucaena leucocephala seed oil is converted into a hydroxyl‐functional biopolyol through OsO4‐mediated dihydroxylation. The resulting biopolyol shows a hydroxyl number of 160–175 mg KOH g−1 and is successfully used to produce flexible, open‐cell polyurethane foams, highlighting a renewable route for converting underutilized biomass into value‐added ...

EVALUATING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF VISUAL INSPECTION WITH ACETIC ACID (VIA) IN CERVICAL CANCER SCREENING

In developing countries cancer cervix is the leading cause of cancer death in females. Effective screening contributes to decrease mortality. Lack of resources is main factor for failure of effective screening for cervical cancer. VIA, visual inspection of cervix with acetic acid application is low cost approach for cervical cancer screening in low ...

Complementary root and mycorrhizal foraging strategies for phosphorus acquisition among arbuscular and ectomycorrhizal trees in a subtropical forest

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Phosphorus (P) availability is widely recognized as an important constraint on plant growth in many subtropical forest ecosystems, yet how contrasting mycorrhizal strategies mediate the use of inorganic and organic P forms remains unclear.
