Active transport of aromas Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) serve as invisible lines communication among host plants, pathogens, commensals, community groups, and, with flowers, their pollinators. Studying petunia Adebesin et al. show that VOCs do not passively diffuse out the cells but are actively shuttled across plasma membrane by an ABC (ATP-binding cassette) transporter (see Perspective Eberl and Gershenzon). Disabling results in damage to cell's membranes intracellular accumulation...
Abstract One limitation of current biodegradable polymeric nanoparticles is their inability to effectively encapsulate and sustainably release proteins while maintaining protein bioactivity. Here we report the engineering PLGA–polycation with a core–shell structure that act as robust vector for encapsulation delivery peptides. The optimized can load high amounts (>20 % by weight) in aqueous solution without organic solvents through electrostatic interactions simple mixing, thereby forming...
Plant cuticles are a mixture of crystalline and amorphous waxes that restrict the exchange molecules between plant atmosphere. The multicomponent nature cuticular complicates study relationship physical transport properties. Here, model cuticle based on epicuticular Petunia hybrida flower petals was formulated to test effect wax composition diffusion water volatile organic compounds (VOCs). composed an n-tetracosane (C24 H50 ), 1-docosanol (C22 H45 OH), 3-methylbutyl dodecanoate (C17 H34 O2...

The demand for cleaner and alternative energy is growing rapidly leading to interest in methanol production. Methanol a high value chemical that serves as an intermediate producing common chemicals, use fuel additive, method of storage. This work about design plant with production capacity 5000 metric tonnes per day (MTPD). the also limited by quality produced - Grade AA (99.85% minimum, 0.1% water maximum), produce no more than 0.54 tonne CO <sub...
