Producing microbial polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) biopolyesters in a sustainable manner

TL;DR: Emphasis is devoted to the integration of PHA-production based on selected raw materials into the holistic patterns of sustainability; this encompasses the choice of new, powerful microbial production strains, non-hazardous, environmentally benign methods for PHA recovery, and reutilization of waste streams from the PHA production process itself.
Journal ArticleDOI

Are the thermodynamic parameters correctly estimated in liquid-phase adsorption phenomena?

TL;DR: In this paper, a review article describes all the possible ways for estimating the thermodynamic parameters and possible flaws are also highlighted, and concludes that thermodynamic studies must be taken into consideration with caution since an enthalpy-entropy compensation was observed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biorefinery based on olive biomass. state of the art and future trends.

TL;DR: A wide range of compounds has been identified and can be produced using a broad definition of the term biorefinery based on olive tree biomass, as well as research on other value-added products.

The antioxidant/anticancer potential of phenolic compounds isolated from olive oil.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the antioxidant phenolic compounds present in olive oil are potent inhibitors of free radical generation by the faecal matrix, indicating that the study of the inter-relation between reactive oxygen species and dietary antioxidants is an area of great promise for elucidating mechanisms of colorectal carcinogenesis and possible future chemopreventive strategies.
