• Abstract

  CCellulose materials with very low density are produced using costly techniques like freeze-drying and supercritical drying, limiting their practical applications. Foam-forming is an alternative method for producing cellulose foams using oven-drying. However, even with improvements, cellulose foams are unlikely to match the performance to replace plastic foams in many applications, as pro…

  Since the beginning of the 20th century, the oil and gas industry has played a fundamental role in the world's economic transformation. In the 21st century, the oil industry faces the challenge of redefining its limits through digitalization. Furthermore, the great challenge of sustainable development in this century is to balance the increase in energy demand with the restrictions impose…

• Abstract

  Drug resistance, cell death evasion and metastasis are factors that contribute to the low disease-free survival rate in several tumors, including osteosarcoma. In previous studies (Pereira et. Al. Eur. J. Med. Chem. 2024) we demonstrated that a new class of organometallic complexes containing oximes called Pd-BPO(1) and Pd-BMO(2) are more cytotoxic than cisplatin (CDDP) for SaOS-2 and U2O…

• Abstract

  Limonene (LIM) is a monoterpene primarily found in citrus peels, with significant potential as a renewable monomer for polymer production or as an additive in plastics, owing to its antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. However, its high volatility poses challenges for incorporation into polymeric materials. A promising approach to address this issue is thiol-ene step-growth photopoly…

• Abstract

  The concept of soil quality (SQ) has evolved over recent decades, recognizing that the dynamic response of soil properties to land management and use is highly dependent on site-specific factors, which must be considered when interpreting results (NUNES et al., 2021). In land management and use, soil fertility management directly affects SQ, including the use of bioinputs. Under the chall…

• Abstract

  Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a major threat to human health, with significant global implications. The spread and control of AMR are multifactorial, fitting into the concept of One Health, which highlights the role of the environment, plants, humans, and other animals. In addition, the presence of AMR determinants in vegetable cultivation areas has been shown to pose a significant…

• Abstract

  Laticifers are secretory structures responsible for latex production, widely present in species of the Moraceae family. The latex is a key component in plant defense mechanisms, by containing a range of chemical compounds that deter herbivores and parasites. The growth patterns and tri-dimensional distribution of laticifers, as well as the specific plant tissues in which they are present …

  Citrus black spot (CBS) is the third greater cause of premature fruit drop in São Paulo citrus belt, which represents the largest area cultivated with sweet orange worldwide. CBS is caused by Phyllosticta citricarpa, a fungus that produces ascospores and conidia as inoculums. Despite the importance of ascospores in this disease spread and introduction in CBS-free areas, few studies have b…
