Using walnut shells as low-cost adsorbent materials in an anaerobic filter medium of a De-centralized wastewater treatment system (DEWATS)
This study aims to observe the pollutants removal efficiencies of walnut shells as an efficient low-cost adsorbent material compared to gravel materials as an anaerobic filter medium. Two models of the De-Centralized Wastewater Treatment System (DEWATS) were constructed. The wastewater flowing from toilets and handwashing places was connected to anaerobic filters filled with walnut shells and gravel. The efficiency of both filter media in the removal of biological oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total suspended solids (TSS), total dissolved solids (TDS), nitrate (NO3), and phosphate (PO43), pH and temper...

GSE234786 Detection of plant microRNAs in edible-plant based products
Contributors : E D íez-Sainz ; S Lorente-Cebrián ; P Aranaz ; J I Riezu-Boj ; F I MilagroSeries Type : Non-coding RNA profiling by high throughput sequencingOrganism : Citrus sinensis ; Juglans regia ; Malus domestica ; Olea europaea ; Prunus dulcis ; Pyrus communis ; Solanum lycopersicum ; Spinacia oleraceaPlant-based diets could be a key source of microRNAs in animals. Plant microRNAs are cross-kingdom gene expression regulators that could modulate mammalian gene expression, influencing their physiology. Therefore, it is important to identify the microRNA expression profile of plant foods in order to identify potent...

Molecules, Vol. 28, Pages 6281: Walnut Kernel Oil and Defatted Extracts Enhance Mesenchymal Stem Cell Stemness and Delay Senescence
Mohammed A. El-Magd
Decreased stemness and increased cellular senescence impair the ability of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to renew themselves, change into different cell types, and contribute to regenerative medicine. There is an urgent need to discover new compounds that can boost MSCs’ stemness and delay senescence. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the impact of walnut kernel oil (WKO) and defatted (WKD) extracts on bone marrow (BM)-MSC stemness and senescence. Premature senescence and inflammation were induced in BM-MSCs using H2O2 and LPS, respectively. Phytochemical constituents of WKO a...

Molecules, Vol. 28, Pages 6261: Preparation of Biomass Biochar with Components of Similar Proportions and Its Methylene Blue Adsorption

Can Liu
Rapeseed straw, bagasse, and walnut peel have a large amount of resource reserves, but there are few technologies for high value-added utilization. In the research of biochar, walnut green husk is rarely used as raw material. In addition, the three main components of biomass (lignin, cellulose, and hemicellulose) are present in similar proportions, and the differences between the physical and chemical properties of biochar prepared with similar amounts of biomass raw materials are not clear. Using three kinds of biomass of the same quality as raw materials, biochar was prepared via pyrolysis at 400 ...

Conversion of waste biomass to designed and tailored activated chars with valuable properties for adsorption and electrochemical applications
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Aug 16. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-28824-y. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWaste biomass, a renewable energy source, is inexpensive material that has great potential in sorption and electrochemical application. The selected waste materials (corncobs, coconut shells, walnuts, and pistachio husks) allow to close the production cycle and enable material recycling, which are important aspects in the hierarchy of waste management. The proposed methodology for production and activation of biochars can be used industrially due to highly porous structure, developed surface area, and sorption ability of...

Sensitization to nut allergens in children with food allergy and other atopic diseases - just a coexistence?
CONCLUSIONS: The analysis of sensitization patterns may help to identify patients with an increased risk, and gives the opportunity to introduce more effective prophylaxis. However, since even the first exposure to nuts may be sufficient to trigger the anaphylaxis, this risk should be considered as a serious issue at any age.PMID:37545822 | PMC:PMC10399669 | DOI:10.5114/ada.2023.128991 (Source: Advances in Dermatology and Allergology)
