Production of cellulose nanocrystals from vine shoots and their use for the development of nanocomposite materials.

TL;DR: In the present work, cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) were produced from vine shoots waste using chemical treatments followed by acid hydrolysis process and the as-extracted CNC displayed a higher reinforcing ability for nanocomposite materials.

Cinnamon and clove essential oils to improve physical, thermal and antimicrobial properties of chitosan-gum arabic polyelectrolyte complexed films.

TL;DR: The performance of films with the CEO and the combined EOs brought new formulation ideas in antimicrobial films, and the combination of EOs resulted in higher retention and delayed release rate in food stimulant, resulting in stronger antimicrobial activities.
