Bacterial backpacks for targeted delivery of piezoelectric nanoparticles to enhance sonodynamic immunotherapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Leveraging bacterial hypoxia targeting, KBTO NPs accumulate at the tumor site. Under the ultrasound irradiation, KBTO NPs produce reactive oxygen species to kill tumor cells and eliminate bacteria, preventing overgrowth and inflammation. The lysed bacteria act as antigens to trigger antitumor immunity and further enhanced by the immune checkpoint ...

Brewing By-Products: Source, Nature, and Handling in the Dawn of a Circular Economy Age

Biomass
The brewing industry generates vast amounts of by-products of biotic and abiotic nature that require proper handling to reduce their environmental footprint annually. Simultaneously, and in alignment with the current circular economy dynamics, there is a

Ant Diversity of the Xisha Islands: Community Structure, Exotic Species Colonization, and Ecological Functions in a Tropical Coral Archipelago

Biological Diversity, EarlyView.
The first inventory of ants from the Xisha Islands of the South China Sea was compiled, revealing 21 species: 70% native and 30% exotic. Anthropogenic disturbance primarily drove exotic colonization, whereas island area showed weak positive effects on species richness. Most ants were omnivorous, with key mutualistic and seed‐dispersal roles.

The Role of Biodiversity Footprinting Within the Nature‐Related Assessment, Disclosure, and Target‐Setting Landscape

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As awareness of business–nature interdependencies grows, organizations face increasing demands to assess and manage their nature‐related value chain impacts. Policies, standards, frameworks, and metrics are emerging to support impact measurement, disclosure, and target‐setting.

Do Commodity Prices and Energy Markets Drive Asymmetric Volatility in Biodiversity Finance?

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines symmetric and asymmetric volatility spillovers among biodiversity finance, commodity prices, and energy markets using daily data from 2019 to 2025. We apply the Diebold–Yilmaz time–domain connectedness model, Baruník–Křehlík frequency–domain decomposition, and an asymmetric spillover framework.

Making Value‐Chain Risks Visible: Extending ENCORE for Systemic Insights

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Businesses in all sectors, including downstream segments, depend on biodiversity and the ecosystem services it sustains, yet firms also exert pressures that accelerate biodiversity loss. The latter generates material risks for both companies and their financial stakeholders.
