Maximizing yields of furfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural in side streams from steam explosion of lignocellulosic residues
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2025)The demand for renewable energy and chemicals from biomass resources has led to the development of methods for biorefining lignocellulosic materials into pellets and value-added chemicals. This has, in turn, driven a search ... -
Trapping of Key “Ate” Intermediates of NHC-Group IV Relevant to Catalyzing Copolymerization of Cyclohexene Oxide with CO2
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Together with bimetallic systems, metalates derived from anionic nucleophile-activated monometallic systems have shown very high catalytic performances for polycarbonates in epoxide–CO2 copolymerization. However, examples ... -
The thylakoid proton antiporter KEA3 regulates photosynthesis in response to the chloroplast energy status
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Plant photosynthesis contains two functional modules, the light-driven reactions in the thylakoid membrane and the carbon-fixing reactions in the chloroplast stroma. In nature, light availability for photosynthesis often ... -
Steam explosion of lignocellulosic residues for co-production of value-added chemicals and high-quality pellets
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The demand of pellets as energy carrier and the competitiveness of wood biomass are the drivers for finding alternative raw materials for production of pellets. The aim of this study was to investigate the steam explosion ... -
Unlocking the potential of NMR spectroscopy for precise and efficient quantification of microplastics

Comparison of rhodamine B adsorption and desorption on the aged non-degradable and degradable microplastics: Effects of charge-assisted hydrogen bond and underline mechanism
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The accumulation of microplastics (MPs) in the environment and their role as carriers for ionic organic pollutants are increasingly attracting attention. This study evaluated the adsorption-desorption characteristics of ... -
Intake of herring oil, but not of anchovy oil, resulted in a lower serum cholesterol concentration in male Zucker Diabetic Sprague Dawley rats
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Patients with type 2 diabetes have increased risks for dyslipidaemia and subsequently for developing vascular complications. A recent meta-analysis found that cetoleic acid (C22:1n-11) rich fish oils resulted in lower ... -
Multivariate pattern analysis: a method and software to reveal, quantify, and visualize predictive association patterns in multicollinear data
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Background Strongly multicollinear covariates, such as those typically represented in metabolomics applications, represent a challenge for multivariate regression analysis. These challenges are commonly circumvented by ... -
A Membrane-Assisted Mechanism for the Release of Ceramide from the CERT START Domain
