Research progress of long chain oxygenated fuels, chemicals and materials based on biomass by WU Shiliang, DING Peilin, XIAO Rui*

“…The biomass-based fuels polymethoxydimethyl ether (PODE) and tripropylene glycol monomethyl ether (TPGME) have attracted much attention because of their high cetane number and oxygen content, as well as their good miscibility with diesel. Polymer electrolytes, as a new direction in the development of lithium-ion batteries, are more often used as petroleum-based polymer matrices, while the natural macromolecules cellulose, lignin, and starch can also be used to prepare gel and solid polymer electrolytes. …”

Conserved stress-responsive genes involved in the early development of Euterpe Edulis by Layra de Medeiros Cardozo, Francine Alves Nogueira de Almeida, Vinicius Sartori Fioresi, Guilherme Bravim Canal, Liana Hilda Golin Mengarda, Adésio Ferreira, Marcia Flores da Silva Ferreira

“…This study aimed to identify conserved and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) involved in the early development of E. edulis, analyzing different tissues and two divergent plant matrices. Using eight RNA-Seq libraries, the strategy was to obtain the first transcriptome for the species through reference mapping against the Elaeis guineensis genome, with focus on conserved genes, followed by differential expression and functional annotation analyses. …”

Emerging analytical frontiers in microplastic detection: From spectroscopy to smart sensor technologies by Jen-Tai Lin, Ya-Ping Chung, Yen-Yi Lee, Tong-Lin Wu, Thao Thi Thu Huynh, Phung Thi Nguyen, Mei-Jou Lu, Bo-Wun Huang, Balasubramanian Sriram, Sea-Fue Wang, Guo-Ping Chang-Chien, Sakthivel Kogularasu, Wan-Ching Lin

“…Microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs), defined as synthetic polymeric particles smaller than 5 mm and 1 μm, respectively, have emerged as pervasive and persistent pollutants across aquatic, terrestrial, and atmospheric environments, as well as within biological systems. Their heterogeneous physicochemical nature spanning diverse polymer compositions, morphologies, and surface chemistries complicates detection, especially in complex matrices at environmentally relevant concentrations. …”
