Effect of microwave drying on drying kinetics, physico-mechanical properties, and microstructure of plantation-grown Hevea brasiliensis wood

iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry
We explored the microwave drying of rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) wood using a multifaceted approach that encompasses various aspects. The primary objective was to examine drying behavior, drying time, moisture distribution across the core and surface,

Assessing the antifungal efficacy of organic fungicides combined with inorganic salts for wood protection

Sustainable Chemistry for the Environment
Wood is a very useful construction material that has been used for many years in several applications. The organic composition of wood makes it vulnerable to several bio-deteriorating agents.

Developmental programmes drive cellular plasticity, disease progression and therapy resistance in lung adenocarcinoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study shows that lung adenocarcinomas exploit developmental branching morphogenesis to acquire a therapy resistant basal‐like tumour cell state. This process was found to be regulated by combined TP53 loss‐of‐function and type‐I interferon signalling, identifying a novel axis for biomarker and therapeutic target discovery.
