Can aluminum, a non-redox metal, alter the thermodynamics of key biological redox processes? The DPPH-QH2 radical scavenging reaction as a test case
(Elsevier, 2022-02-01)
[EN] The increased bioavailability of aluminum has led to a concern about its toxicity on living systems. Among the most important toxic effects, it has been proven that aluminum increases oxidative stress in biological ...
A Review on Current Strategies for the Modulation of Thermomechanical, Barrier, and Biodegradation Properties of Poly (Butylene Succinate) (PBS) and Its Random Copolymers
(MDPI, 2022-03-03)
The impact of plastics on the environment can be mitigated by employing biobased and/or biodegradable materials (i.e., bioplastics) instead of the traditional “commodities”. In this context, poly (butylene succinate) (PBS) ...
Evaluation of the Circular Economy in a Pitahaya Agri-Food Chain
(MDPI, 2022-03-03)
