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

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
