Cellulose was produced by the modified traditional method with 35% yield from the stem of Sosnovsky hogweed and was characterized by elemental analysis, infrared (IR) spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffractometry, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). For , the degree of crystallinity (approximately 70%) and the glass transition temperature (105-108 °C) were determined. It was found that the whiteness characteristic in the case of was 92% and this significate was obtained without a bleaching procedure using chlorine-containing reagents. In this paper, the possibility of hydrophobization of films by treatment with radiation-synthesized telomers of tetrafluoroethylene is shown. It was found that the contact angle of the telomer-treated cellulose film surface depended on the properties of the telomers (the chemical nature of the solvent, and the initial concentration of tetrafluoroethylene) and could reach 140 degrees.

Pathogen-induced fruit decay is a significant threat to the kiwifruit industry, leading to considerable economic losses annually. The cell-wall-degrading enzymes (CWDEs) secreted by these pathogens are crucial for penetrating the cell wall and accessing nutrients. Among them, species are recognized as major causal agents of soft rot in kiwifruit, yet their pathogenic mechanisms are not well understood.

We investigated the amount and distribution of waste generated by commercial tobacco, electronic cigarette, and cannabis (TEC) use to inform policy options aimed at mitigating the environmental harm caused by these products. Using disproportionate stratified random sampling, we selected 60 census blocks from the eight largest cities in San Diego County, California. We twice surveyed publicly accessible areas in these blocks to quantify TEC waste accumulation and its re-accumulation.
