Development and Characterization of an Innovative Probiotic Fermented Beverage Based on Yerba Mate and Lychee Juice Using Saccharomyces boulardii

open access: yeseFood, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
Yerba mate allows the growth of S. boulardii. S. boulardii maintains viability even under refrigeration. Yerba mate beverage with added S. boulardii is delicious and has functional and probiotic potential. ABSTRACT This study aimed to develop a probiotic fermented beverage based on yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis), lychee juice, and Saccharomyces ...

Enhancing Ground Beef Shelf Life Using Psidium guajava Leaf and Oliveria decumbens Essential Oils: Antimicrobial, Antioxidant, and Quality Preservation Effects Under Refrigeration

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Guava leaf essential oil (GL‐EO) and Oliveria decumbens essential oil (Od‐EO) improved the microbial and oxidative stability of refrigerated ground beef and helped extend its shelf life. GL‐EO better preserved odor and color, while the combined GL‐EO + Od‐EO treatment provided the best texture preservation and highest overall acceptability.

Reciprocal relations shape cultural landscapes: Women's environmental stewardship in Ait Bouguemez (High Atlas, Morocco)

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 8, Page 2847-2865, August 2026.
Abstract Mountain social–ecological systems encompass steep ecological gradients and diverse cultural practices, yet the relative roles of these factors in shaping mountain landscapes remain underexplored. In particular, the knowledge and practices of women in coproducing biocultural landscapes are often invisible in the academic literature. In the Ait

Deep Soil Drying Increases Dryland Apple Tree's Eco‐Physiological Sensitivity to Atmospheric Drought

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Dryland tree survival critically depends on deep soil water (DSW), particularly during dry spells. However, DSW is often limited and can be exhausted during periods of active tree growth, as recharge from precipitation is minimal. The eco‐physiological responses of trees to compound droughts (i.e., combined deep soil and atmospheric droughts ...

The Use of Purified and Modified Cellulose in Wine Production and Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Cellulose is not only one of the most abundant biological macromolecules but can also be purified and modified to serve a multitude of purposes in industrial winemaking processes. Being composed of only glucose and naturally occurring unbranched in nature as strands and fibrils, cellulose can be used for filtration directly or as a filtration ...

Degree of insecticide exposure and access to nectar impact survival of Trissolcus japonicus, a hymenopteran parasitoid, in flowering border strips

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 357-366, August 2026.
We applied three thiamethoxam spray treatments to buckwheat border strips: control (no nearby spray), drift (adjacent peach trees directly sprayed) and direct spray (buckwheat and peaches directly sprayed). Drift‐treated buckwheat received about 1.4% the amount of thiamethoxam as direct‐spray buckwheat. This amount has no lethal effects on parasitoids,

Prey Range and Voracity of Main Insect Natural Enemies of Pests in Corsican Clementine Orchards

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 851-862, August 2026.
To assess the biocontrol potential on the main arthropod pests of clementine orchards in Corsica, laboratory experiments were carried out using five potential predators. Their prey range and voracity were tested on three pest species. Then, a global predation rate index was calculated at the scale of the entire community of insect predators.
