The implementation of three-dimensional (3D) printing for education in different fields brings numerous advantages that make learning easier for students. Also, it changes the model of students' participation in the teaching process so that they become active participants. This article considers the involvement of 3D printing in the teaching process in the field of hydraulic and pneumatic components by using the developed methodology.

- - The study focuses on the edible mushroom Murrill, known for its health benefits and examined its phenolic content through high-performance liquid chromatography.
- - It was found that an ethanolic extract from Murrill showed potential antimicrobial and anticancer properties, particularly in reducing cancer cell migration without harming probiotic bacteria’s ability to form biofilms.
- - Key findings revealed that while the extract contains a high level of phenolics (notably rosmarinic acid), it exhibited low toxicity to cancer cells and significant antimigratory effects, suggesting its potential role as a natural supplement to enhance probiotic efficacy and combat cancer progression.
Great waste production alongside limited natural resources represents huge environmental and economic problems worldwide. Sustainable waste management and industrial production can reduce pollution and gain some economic benefits. Eco-friendly thermal insulators such as foam glasses can be produced using secondary raw materials in open-loop recycling.

It is crucial to carefully reconsider the methods and techniques currently employed to recover spilled oil in order to prevent any possible secondary pollution and save time. Therefore, the techniques used to recover spilled oil should be readily available, highly responsive, cost-effective, environmentally safe, and, last but not least, they should have a high sorption capacity.
