Biogenic silica-based microparticles obtained as a sub-product of the nanocellulose extraction process from pineapple peels

Silica in plant tissues has been suggested as a component for enhancing mechanical properties, and as a physical barrier. Pineapples present in their shell and bracts rosette-like microparticles that could be associated to biogenic silica. In this study, we show for the first time that silica-based...
