Preparation and biological evaluation of novel 5-Fluorouracil and Carmofur loaded polyethylene glycol / rosin ester nanocarriers as potential anticancer agents and ceramidase inhibitors

From rosin to novel bio-based silicone rubber: a review

“…[22][23][24] Rosin is one of the most important export forest chemical products in China, with an annual output of 350 000 tons, accounting for more than half of the world's total output. [25][26][27] It has great development space and considerable market potential. [28][29][30] Improving the technology, level of deep processing, utilization of rosin, and the international competitive advantage of rosin products are very beneficial to the development of Chinese forestry.…”
