Green Synthesis and Antifungal Activity of Sophora flavescens‐Mediated Silver Nanoparticles

New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
This study describes a green, simple, and low‐cost biological way tosynthesize silvernanoparticles (AgNPs)using the ethanolic root extract of Sophora flavescens. It investigates its antifungal activity against four strains of Candida albicans, Candida tropicalis, Candida utilis, and Aspergillus flavus.

Dietary Spirulina Ameliorates Arsenic‐Induced Toxicity in Nile Tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 2, March 2026.
Arsenic contamination poses serious risks to Nile tilapia by reducing growth, feed efficiency and haemoglobin, while elevating blood glucose and muscle arsenic levels. This 56‐day feeding trial evaluated the protective role of spirulina (20 g/kg) under varying arsenic exposure.

From Past to Present: Transformation of Food Safety Management and Food Safety Culture in the California Almond Industry

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The California almond industry underwent a remarkable transformation in food safety management and culture following outbreaks of salmonellosis associated with the consumption of raw almonds in 2000–2001 and 2003–2004. However, limited studies have examined these changes from a longitudinal perspective.

Artificial Intelligence in Food Safety: A Tertiary Study

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Food safety remains a critical factor in preventing contaminated and hazardous products from reaching consumers. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and its capacity to deal with vast datasets has significantly enhanced food safety protocols, and a substantial number of primary and secondary studies have emerged at the intersection

Thermolysed and active yeast to reduce the toxicity of aflatoxin

Scientia Agricola, 2002
Aflatoxins are hepatotoxic metabolites produced by Aspergillus flavus and A. parasiticus on a number of agricultural commodities. This research was carried out to evaluate the ability of thermolysed and active Saccharomyces cerevisiae to attenuate liver ...

bZIP63.5 Regulates a Zinc‐Finger Mediated Detoxification Network in Trichoderma Harzianum for Enhanced Biocontrol of Alternaria alternata

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2026.
The bZIP63.5 transcription factor, activated by Alternaria alternata stress, directly upregulates zinc‐finger transcription factors (Zn2CyS6 and C2H2 types), which in turn enhance the expression of downstream detoxification and defence‐related genes, collectively improving the biocontrol efficacy of Trichoderma harzianum.

Alpha‐Fetoprotein Stimulates Cleavage of Membranal MICA/B on Liver Cancer Cell Lead to Escape Immune Surveillance of Natural Killer Cells

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 5, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) could escape immune surveillance. Alpha‐fetoprotein (AFP) serves as a significant biomarker for HCC; however, its influence on HCC immune surveillance remains elusive. RNA‐Seq data of HCC were obtained from TCGA and GEO databases for the expression of AFP, MICA/B, and related genes.

Resource Availability Modulates Gene Expression Across Life Stages in a Migratory Butterfly

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 5, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Natural populations are in constant need of balancing resource allocation to compensate for seasonal environmental variation. In many insects, a well‐established trade‐off between migration and reproduction exists. While this trade‐off has been characterised phenotypically for decades, the underlying regulatory pathways are poorly understood ...

Enterobacter Species: Opportunistic Human and Plant Pathogens With Plant‐Beneficial Traits

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
The pathogen profile on Enterobacter species synthesises current knowledge on host range, disease symptoms, plant‐beneficial traits and compares genomic features within the genus. ABSTRACT Enterobacter species occur across diverse habitats and are best known for causing opportunistic and nosocomial infections in humans.
