In many schools teaching learners is conducted in isolation, and often, so is teachers’ learning. Isolation hinders shared practices; it creates a key challenge for those in middle leadership roles who must foster collaborative professional development. This study examines how a system perspective empowers …

A novel synthetic approach to 2,6-bis(acrylamido)pyridine (BAAPy) has been developed, producing a dual-function monomer able to self-crosslink while providing functional binding sites through its amide and pyridine groups. The monomer's structure and purity were confirmed through NMR, FTIR, and HPLC …

The catalytic oxidation of potato starch by [MnIV2 (μ-O)3(tmtacn)2][H2O](CH3COO)2 (Mncat, with tmtacn =1,4,7-trimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane) with H2O2, was recently introduced as a promising alternative to ubiquitous sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl). Here, we report an in-depth investigation into interactions …

Hyperhomocysteinemia is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, neurological disorders, and bone abnormalities. The key enzyme in homocysteine metabolism, cystathionine-β-synthase (CBS) is recognized as a target for new homocysteine-lowering therapies including enzyme replacement and gene therapy. …

This study provides insights into novel combinations of hydrothermal modifications and mineral enrichment by demonstrating the versatility of this environmentally more benign approach compared to other common chemical starch modifications like crosslinking. Heat-moisture treatment (HMT) (15% moisture, …

Pyrolysis liquids from lignocellulosic biomass have the potential to be used as a feed for aromatics such as benzene, toluene, and xylenes (BTX) using catalytic upgrading with zeolites. We here report an experimental study on the conversion of various pyrolysis oil fractions to determine the most suitable …

De downstreamverwerking van PHA’s is vaak energie-intensief, oplosmiddelrijk en milieutechnisch onduurzaam. Om de algehele haalbaarheid van het proces te verbeteren, is er toenemende belangstelling voor alternatieve valorisatiestrategieën die conventionele extractiestappen omzeilen. Deze studie onderzoekt …

De downstream processing van polyhydroxyalkanoaten (PHA’s) is vaak energie-intensief, solvent-intensief en milieutechnisch niet duurzaam. Om de algehele proceshaalbaarheid te verbeteren, is er toenemende belangstelling voor alternatieve valorisatiestrategieën die conventionele polymeerextractie omzeilen. …
