A multiplex assay to detect mosquito species, bloodmeal host source and Plasmodium in malaria vectors using Nanopore amplicon sequencing

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Insectary‐reared mosquitoes were simultaneously assessed for species identification, bloodmeal source analysis and Plasmodium detection, using a single multiplexed sequencing run on the MinION sequencing platform. The method was applied to 150 insectary‐reared mosquitoes, representing nine species blood‐fed with five vertebrate hosts and 40 samples for

Accuracy of next‐generation wireless skin temperature sensors during exercise–heat stress

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Skin temperature is fundamental in characterising human thermoregulatory responses. Wired probes, although accurate, restrict movement and are impractical outside laboratory settings. The iButton (DS1922L; Maxim Integrated, USA) is a widely used wireless alternative but does not meet the precision recommended by ISO 9886 and permits only ...

Placental mitochondrial metabolic adaptation maintains cellular energy balance in pregnancy complicated by gestational hypoxia

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Placental mitochondrial adaptation to gestational hypoxia. Hypoxic pregnancy in sheep increases placental insulin like growth factor 2 (IGF2) signalling (1), which is associated with a shift in capacity away from β‐oxidation (2) and complex I‐mediated respiration (3), while maintaining total oxidative phosphorylation capacity (4).

Floating Platform Geometry as a Frequency‐Selective Mechanism for Triboelectric Wave Energy Harvesting

open access: yesSmartSys, Volume 2, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Ocean wave energy has enormous potential for sustainable power generation but conventional technologies often face challenges in efficiency, durability, and adaptability to specific sites. Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) are able to convert irregular and low frequency water motion into electrical energy, but their performance depends on ...

Low hysteresis solid‐state ion‐conducting elastomers for low‐drift pressure sensing

open access: yesInfoMat, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
A load‐bearing and mechanically reversible network design is proposed to reconcile the trade‐offs among elasticity, softness, and ionic conductivity in ion‐conducting elastomers. The resulting material exhibits low hysteresis, low modulus, and high ionic conductivity, enabling pressure sensors with high sensitivity, low detection limit, and minimal ...
