The combination of chemical peeling and dermabrasion for the improvement of facial wrinkles, acne, posttraumatic scars, and abnormal pigmentation was first described by Dupont in 1972 and Horton in 1984. We have been using the combined technique since 1972, and we have obtained more satisfying results than by using these techniques independently. The purpose of this paper is to summarize the results obtained using the combined technique of chemical peeling and dermabrasion and to emphasize a simple method of postoperative care that can be applied after any physical or chemical rejuvenation technique. Whereas the combined technique takes advantage of depth-controlled surgery, less bleeding, less postoperative pain, less risk of local and systemic complications, and longer lasting results, the covering of the wound with one layer of fine mesh gauze is another advantage that provides easy postoperative care.

Bioethanol production is one of the key alternatives for fossil fuel use due to climate change. The study seeks to upscale tailor-made onsite enzyme blends for the bioconversion of cassava peels to bioethanol in simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process using cassava peels-degrading fungi. The starch and cellulose contents of peels were determined.

Unlabelled: A huge amount of fruits and vegetables is being produced and processed in India and therefore the waste is also generated in high quantities. These wastes are good sources of vitamins, enzymes, cellulose, and many other essential compounds. The non-utilization of these bio-wastes leads to economic loss and also environmental problems.

The present article focuses on the characterization of the new biocomposites of poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) with fillers of plant origin such as onion peels (OP) and durum wheat bran WB () subjected to composting and artificial aging. The susceptibility to fungal growth, cytotoxicity and antibacterial properties were also examined. The biodegradation of the samples was investigated under normalized conditions simulating an intensive aerobic composting process.

Citrus peel essential oils (CPEOs) have demonstrated substantial medicinal potential for glioblastoma treatment because of their extensive antitumor effects, low potential for drug resistance, and ability to cross the human blood-brain barrier. In this study, the chemical compositions of five CPEOs were analyzed via gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). CCK8 assays were used to evaluate the ability of five CPEOs to inhibit U251 human glioblastoma cells, and XLB and RA were selected for further investigation.
