The Many Facets of Hypoxia in Plants
Plants are aerobic organisms that require oxygen for their respiration. Hypoxia arises due to the insufficient availability of oxygen, and is sensed by plants, which adapt their growth and metabolism accordingly.

Soft-metal(loid)s induce protein aggregation in Escherichia coli
Metal(loid) salts were used to treat infectious diseases in the past due to their exceptional biocidal properties at low concentrations. However, the mechanism of their toxicity has yet to be fully elucidated.

Effects of Anoxia on Amino Acid Levels in Rice Coleoptiles
Effects of anoxia on the levels of free-amino acids were investigated in the coleoptiles of rice (Oryza sativa L.) seedlings. Rice coleoptiles are able to grow in extremely low oxygen conditions.

Revisiting small‐molecule fluorescent probes in food freshness detection
Fluorescent probes serve as versatile tools for food freshness monitoring. This review summarizes recent advances in probes targeting biogenic amines, hydrogen sulfide, pH values, and other key spoilage markers, highlighting their design principles, sensing mechanisms, and practical applications in food quality monitoring. Abstract Food spoilage driven

Hevea brasiliensis seeds: A novel sustainable feedstock for ethanol production
Abstract The rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) is cultivated on a large scale mainly for the extraction of latex in Brazil and Southeast Asia, also generating large quantities of seeds. These seeds currently do not have large‐scale applications and may thus be considered as a residue.

Metagenomic Evaluation of Oral Microbiota in Patients Affected by Oral Lichen Planus: A Pilot Study
ABSTRACT Objective To characterize the oral bacterial and fungal microbiota of symptomatic oral lichen planus patients undergoing topical corticosteroid therapy and to explore microbial patterns potentially associated with subsequent oral candidiasis. Methods Twelve patients with clinically and histologically confirmed OLP were enrolled.
