The prevalence of micro and nanoplastics (MNPs) across the various environments their negative impact on ecosystems have become a serious global threat are currently subject many environmental concerns. Studies provided evidence that MNPs potential to leach toxic plastic chemical additives can adsorb variety persistent organic pollutants, thereby enhancing bioavailability, toxicity, dispersion. Moreover, these easily penetrate food chain might cause health problems when ingested by humans...

Microalgae are pervasive organisms regarded as conservative alternatives for the sustainable synthesis of various high-value-added bio-products to replace depleting fossil fuels and reduce CO2 emissions. However, microalgae biorefinery is still very far from being commercially viable due high costs, intensive energy requirements, low availability biomass biomolecules. In this review, current status discussed by establishing efficiency green biotechnology in producing wastewater diverse...

Achieving renewable clean energy to meet increasing global demand and counter overreliance on depleting unsustainable sources has recently drawn significant research interest. Similarly, attain the sustainable development goals (SDGs) "zero hunger" agenda, massive agricultural/food productions are embarked on, leading increased agro-food waste (AFW) generation with enormous handling costs evade its contribution environmental pollution. The advent of biorefineries fostered a healthy balance...

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have been used in industrial consumer applications for ages. The pervasive persistent nature of PFAS the environment is a universal concern due to public health risks. Experts acknowledge that exposure high levels certain consequences, including reduced vaccine efficacy, elevated cholesterol, increased risk blood pressure. While considerable research has conducted investigate presence environment, pathways human through food packaging/contact...

Garlic (Allium sativum) has been known for its potent medicinal activities and interesting culinary role since ancient times. With over 200 phytochemicals flavoring compounds elucidated many others yet to, garlic promises to improve human health vitality. Just like other phytochemical classes, essential oils have reported show medical delving across diverse antimicrobial, cardio-protective, anti-cancer, anti-Alzheimer, anti-diabetic, immunomodulatory activities. contain mainly volatile...
