Starch is a promising alternative to petroleum-based polymers due to its biodegradability and renewable nature. However, its widespread use in non-food applications raises ethical concerns. Mango kernels, a major byproduct of mango processing, represent an abundant yet underutilized starch source....

This study assessed how phosphorus rates aff ect the growth and nutriti onal health of seedlings from three native forest species in the Brazilian semi-arid region: Libidibia ferrea, Erythrina veluti na , and Piptadenia sti pulacea . The experiment was conducted at the Center ...

Micropropagated banana plantlets need acclimatization to reduce the stresses caused by the change from in vitro to ex vitro environment. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of thermal stress on the acclimatization of micropropagated plantlets of banana cultivar ‘Pr...

A large volume of plastic waste is disposed of in the enviromnent and in landfills worldwide. To remediate this serious environmental issue, sustainable alternatives to substitute traditional fossil fuel-derived plastics are necessary. In this regard, starch-degradable films are a promising avenue&...
