Article Synopsis
- Biomass-derived oligo- and polysaccharides can activate plant immune responses, potentially increasing resistance to environmental stresses.
- In this study, cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) gels were created and analyzed to identify their molecular structures and sequences.
- Testing these gels on Chili pepper plants showed that they may enhance plant growth and improve resistance to stress factors like drought and cold by affecting gene expression.
Monoglyceride MG has a wide function in the food industry, in particular as a natural emulsifier, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, antioxidant, and antibacterial. Therefore, the production of polyol ester from esterification of acid (OA) and glycerol was investigated. The process optimization was performed using a Box-Behnken design, examining the effects of temperature, molar ratio, and catalyst amount.
