Unveiling Protist Composition and Diversity Patterns With eDNA Metabarcoding: Comparing Short‐ and Long‐Read Approaches

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is widely used for biodiversity monitoring, but short‐read sequencing limits detailed taxonomic identification, especially for protists. In a comparison of short‐ and long‐read approaches in the Belgian North Sea, long‐read metabarcoding provided deeper taxonomic assignment under the applied workflows and improved

A Multi‐Taxa Approach to Estuarine Biomonitoring: Assessing Vertebrate Biodiversity and Ecological Continuity Using Environmental DNA Metabarcoding in the Rance River (Brittany, France)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We applied eDNA metabarcoding to assess vertebrate diversity in the Rance Estuary, France, across five stations spanning marine to freshwater environments, including areas upstream and downstream of a tidal power plant dam. A total of 124 vertebrate MOTUs were detected, with community composition reflecting the estuarine gradient and species turnover ...

Obesity and Natural Products: Mechanisms, Therapeutic Potential, and Future Directions

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Natural products such as EGCG, berberine, curcumin, and capsaicin modulate key metabolic pathways including AMPK activation, adipogenesis inhibition, and inflammatory signaling. While clinical trials demonstrate modest benefits on body weight and metabolic parameters, translational challenges related to bioavailability, dose feasibility, and regulatory

Short‐Term Estuarine Phytoplankton Dynamics in Response to Hurricanes Along the Gulf Coast of America: A Variational Autoencoder (VAE) Approach With Satellite and Bio‐Optical Observations

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Hurricanes drive diverse estuarine phytoplankton responses and can trigger cascading ecological and physicochemical impacts. Capturing these short‐term dynamics requires high spatiotemporal resolution. Here, we applied a globally‐applicable coastal ocean color algorithm, Variational Autoencoder (VAE), to Sentinel‐2 MSI imagery for chlorophyll ...

Pulsed Electric Fields for Emerging Single‐Cell Bioprocessing in Food Applications: Electropermeabilization Mechanisms and Design Principles

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This review evaluates pulsed electric fields (PEF) as an emerging platform for single‐cell bioprocessing in food applications. Connections are drawn between key mechanisms in electropermeabilization and applications, and a practical PEF process design framework is provided.

Hybrid closed‐loop insulin delivery improves glycaemic control compared with sensor‐augmented pump therapy: A meta‐analysis of ‘free‐living’ randomised trials in type 1 diabetes

open access: yesDiabetic Medicine, Volume 43, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Aim Although hybrid closed‐loop systems (HCLS) and sensor‐augmented pump (SAP) therapy are advanced diabetes management technologies for type 1 diabetes, their relative efficacy in optimising glycaemic control is not fully established. This meta‐analysis evaluated the impact of HCLS versus SAP therapy on glucose regulation across multiple ...
