Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractData Mining Revealing Recent Microplastics Pollution of Freshwater in ChinaZhuo-Yuan Xie, De-Sheng PeiThis review mainly discusses the characteristics and correlation of microplastics (MPs) in freshwater systems under various geographical environments in China. The distribution and source of MPs are analyzed and their spatial analyses are performed using the GIS method. Besides, the current and future situation of microplastic pollution in China is further evaluated through data mining. Results indicate that recent studies … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 25 Jun 2022 · 6,089 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreparation of Collagen Casings with High Mechanical Properties using Response Surface MethodologyZhike Xie, Ming He, Yuhan Zhai et al.Usages of plastic casing have a number of drawbacks like generation of waste associated with the materials used to package foods and the source of natural casings is limited. So, the interest in the development of biodegradable collagen casing is increasing. For this reason, the present study aimed at developing a new type of collagen casing sprayed with Tea Polyphenols … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 16 Jan 2021 · 7,510 accessesView PDFCite
