Waste management (New York, N.Y.)
A field excavation of refusewitha short-termlandfillage from the Qingdao Xiaojianxi municipal solid waste (MSW) landfill was conducted. The physical composition and chemical properties of refuse with landfill ages of 1-4 years were studied, and the emission characteristics of odorous pollutants during the excavation period were monitored. The refus...

Starch digestibility can be decreased by phenolic acids. The physicochemical and digestive properties of high-amylose maize starch, normal maize starch (NMS) and waxy maize starch (WMS) complexed with caffeic acid (CA) were investigated to determine the effects of CA and amylose on starch digestibility. CA inhibited the activity of α-glucosidase an...

Enzymatic hydrolysis and self-assembly are considered promising methods for preparation of starch nanoparticles (SNPs) because they are environmentally friendly, and time- and cost-effective. These methods are based on the self-assembly of short-chain glucans released from the α-1,6 bonds in amylopectin. Since their discovery, many studies have des...

Predicting the effects of organic compounds on environments and biological systems is an important objective for environmental chemistry and human health. The logarithm (to base 10) of the n-octanoll-water partition coefficient has been widely used to predict the mentioned properties. However, the suitability of this parameter for the purpose has b...
