Sustainable and integrated cascade valorization of the biomass generated by the invasive plant Flaveria bidentis: optimization of ultrasound-assisted phenols extraction coupled to the green synthesis of biogenic antimicrobial silver nanoparticles
Introduction This study addresses the integrated valorization of residual biomass from Flaveria bidentis, an invasive species native to the Americas through the recovery of phenolic compounds (phenolic acids and flavonoids, mainly glycosylated and sulfated – the latter being rare in nature –) and their subsequent use i...
