Recently, many industries are adopting closed-loop recycling models to recover and reuse production scrap in order to reduce waste, conserve resources, and minimize environmental impact. In this scenario, this paper aims to simulate such a model usin...

Members of the Cinnamomum genus have been utilized for medicinal treatment for millennia. In recent years, particular attention has been given to the bioactive metabolites involved in the medicinal properties of natural products and their extracts. C...

Polyhydroxyurethanes (PHUs) synthesized from cyclic carbonates are promising alternatives to conventional polyurethanes due to their advantageous isocyanate-free synthesis and reprocessability characteristics. While many studies focus on PHUs derived...

Biopolymers, such as polysaccharides, polyphenols, alkaloids, and terpenoids, found in marine algae exhibit antiviral and anticancer properties. These compounds can inhibit viral replication, induce apoptosis in cancer cells, and enhance the immune r...

There are few examples of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) based on phosphorus as the building element, probably because the structure of most phosphorus derivatives is pyramidal, which may prevent the stacking expected for classical 2-dimensional...

To expand the utilization of bio-based materials as flame retardants in epoxy resin (EP), a green Schiff base structural material (CSV) was synthesized via a one-pot approach employing chitosan and vanillin as the raw materials. Then, the CSV combine...

Spaghetti pasta is a popular food; different ingredients than wheat have been explored to increase their nutritional value, the use of mesquite flour with pea protein remains unexplored. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of substituting semolin...

The present study examines the effect of low-temperature thermal treatment before drying, through storage at −10 °C and 4 °C for 72 h, respectively, on the physicochemical and microbiological properties of spray-dried kefir powder. Furt...

Progress in the field of biodegradable materials has been significantly accelerated in recent years, driven by the search for sustainable substitutes for fossil-derived resources. This study investigates the formulation of biodegradable films compose...

The growing interest in renewable and natural antioxidants has positioned lignin as one of the most significant bioresources for sustainable applications. Lignin, a polyphenolic biomolecule and a major by-product of chemical pulping and biorefinery p...
