Abstract The integration of conductive biological materials into in vitro models represents a transformative approach to advancing biomedical research while addressing critical sustainability challenges. Traditional used tissue engineering and disease modeling are often environmentally detrimental, derived from non-renewable resources, limited their ability replicate the dynamic properties native tissues. Conductive bridge this gap by offering unique combination biodegradability, sustainability, functional properties, such as bioelectricity biocompatibility, that essential for mimicking physiological environments. Herein, development current applications biodegradable materials, including advanced polymers polyaniline polypyrrole, carbon-based nanocomposites, renewable biopolymers lignin cellulose, overviewed. These not only reduce ecological footprint but also enable precise simulation electrical signaling tissues, cardiac, neural, muscular systems, thereby enhancing relevance models. Their three-dimensional (3D) constructs, organ-on-chip platforms, bioprinting technologies facilitates patient-specific models, paving way personalized therapeutic diagnostic applications. In addition precision, these align with global efforts implement circular economy principles research, promoting resource efficiency waste reduction. By combining environmental responsibility state-of-the-art functionality, redefining future 3D accelerating innovation regenerative medicine, drug development, fostering sustainable framework scientific discovery.

Multilayer packaging, extensively used in the food, beverage, and cosmetics industries, offers excellent protection durability by combining materials such as paper, plastic, aluminum. However, its complex structure creates significant challenges recycling, particularly separating layers. This review, conducted through a scoping analysis of peer-reviewed literature obtained from databases Google Scholar, PubMed, ResearchGate, reviews limitations current recycling technologies, including mechanical, chemical, solvent-based, enzymatic methods highlights experimental potential microbial degradation future solution. It also explores innovative approaches, upcycling, biodegradable alternatives, split-layer which reduce adhesive use simplify recycling. Legislative frameworks policy incentives are analyzed to underscore their role driving technological advancements fostering industry collaboration. Findings emphasize absence fully viable solution with regard for multilayer packaging under existing economic constraints. Although “Design-for-Recycling” emerging offer promising long-term strategies, temporary measures advanced incineration or regulated landfilling may still be required. Moving forward, innovation supported robust policies collaborative efforts, is essential align global sustainability goals contribute development circular economy.

The emergence of eco-friendly antioxidants has gained prominence in recent studies since there is a growing interest exploring the conversion traditional synthetic into environmentally sustainable additives, which prompts consideration more approaches development new additives. In addition to possessing antioxidant capabilities comparable antioxidants, they also have benefits being readily accessible, cost-effective, minimally poisonous, and adjustable qualities. Furthermore, production biopolymers expected experience significant growth future, driven by desire for economy less reliance on fossil resources. Fully biobased formulations combining green additives are attracting attention both academia industry due unique lower carbon emissions higher biochar content. This review examines four extensively studied categories (natural derived from agricultural/food processing byproducts, modified dots plant origin), including processes, efficiencies, other common performance parameters, their comparisons with conventional antioxidants; it provides comprehensive overview comparative analysis sources properties these as well potential applications conjunction domains active food packaging materials, cosmetic products, biomedical materials. obstacles opportunities associated developing summarized.
