Pistachio hull extract as a natural antioxidant incorporated into pistachio paste: Antioxidant activity and oxidative stability by Hoda Farrokhi, Mohammad Hadi Eskandari, Ahmad Shakerardekani, Mohammad Taghi Golmakani, Mehrdad Niakousari

“…Pistachio hull (PH) and testa (TS), the primary pistachio wastes during production of paste, fresh kernel, and un-refined oil, were extracted for their valuable bioactive compounds using a mixture of ethanol and water (1:1, v/v) through conventional (CNE), ohmic heating-assisted (OHE), and atmospheric cold plasma-assisted (CAP) extraction methods. The total phenol content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), and antioxidant activity (AA) of the extracts were determined. …”

Boosting the Optical Activity of Titanium Oxide Through Conversion from Nanoplates to Nanotubes and Nanoparticle-Supported Nanolayers by Adil Alshoaibi

“…Furthermore, the kinetic analysis verified that the green dyes’ degradation was expedited by the high activity of nanotubes. Ultimately, based on these findings, it was possible to design an efficient photocatalyst for water purification by converting nanoplates into nanotubes, doping titanium sites with sodium ions, and creating new active sites for titanium oxides through defect-induced super radical formation.…”
