Influence of Botanical Origin on the Optical, Surface, and Nanomechanical Properties of Nanocellulose‐Based Films: A Comparative Study

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 19, May 15, 2026.
Schematic representation of the processing and multiscale characterization of nanocellulose films from different botanical sources. ABSTRACT Although the influence of botanical origin on nanocellulose properties is well recognized, an integrated multiscale framework linking chemical composition, fractal surface descriptors, and nanomechanical behavior ...

A novel thermostable GH10 xylanase with activities on a wide variety of cellulosic substrates from a xylanolytic Bacillus strain exhibiting significant synergy with commercial Celluclast 1.5 L in pretreated corn stover hydrolysis

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2019
Background Cellulose and hemicellulose are the two largest components in lignocellulosic biomass. Enzymes with activities towards cellulose and xylan have attracted great interest in the bioconversion of lignocellulosic biomass, since they have potential

From Wet Chemistry to Portable NIR: Robust High‐Throughput Compositional Models for Biomass Pretreatment

Journal 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

Biochemical Aspects of Non-Starch Polysaccharides

Scientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023
Polysaccharides are macromolecules of monosaccharides linked by glycosidic bonds. Non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) are principally non-α-glucan polysaccharides of the plant cell wall. They are a heterogeneous group of polysaccharides with varying degrees

Green Proteins: A Sustainable Alternative to Animal‐Based Proteins for Global Protein Security

Food 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

Preparation and Characterization of Emulsion‐Based Fucoidan‐Whey Protein Film Activated With Geranium Essential Oil for Food Applications

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
The geranium essential oil (EO) nanoemulsion was incorporated into fucoidan‐whey protein film. Active fucoidan‐whey protein film showed higher mechanical, antioxidant, and water barrier properties. Fucoidan‐whey protein film loaded with geranium EO nanoemulsion exhibited antimicrobial and antifungal activities.
