Mechanochromic Organic Materials: Molecular Mechanisms and Multidimensional Applications

Advanced Physics Research, Volume 5, Issue 2, February 2026.
Mechanochromic (MC) organic materials change color in response to mechanical force. This review elucidates the molecular mechanisms (e.g., aggregation‐induced emission, AIE) and explores their multidimensional applications in sensors, anti‐counterfeiting, biomedical devices, and structural health monitoring, providing a roadmap for future smart ...

Optimizing the Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) protein concentration in cotton: Coordinated application of exogenous amino acids and EDTA to reduce spatiotemporal variability in boll and leaf toxins

Journal of Integrative Agriculture
During the boll formation stage, cotton bolls exhibit the lowest expression of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) insecticidal proteins. Resistance to insects varies notably among different organs, which poses challenges for controlling cotton bollworms ...

Surgical Induction of Mid‐Thoracic Aortic Coarctation in Mice: A Reproducible Preclinical Model of Pressure‐Induced Vascular Remodeling

Current Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Elevated arterial pressure is a key contributor to cardiovascular disease, yet experimental models that isolate the effects of pressure from confounding systemic factors remain limited. We describe a reproducible surgical protocol to induce mid‐thoracic aortic coarctation in mice, generating a stable and quantifiable arterial pressure gradient

Effects of Pink Bollworm Resistance to Bacillus thuringiensis on Phenoloxidase Activity and Susceptibility to Entomopathogenic Nematodes [PDF]

, 2009
Widespread planting of crops genetically engineered to produce insecticidal toxins from the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) imposes selection on many key agricultural pests to evolve resistance to Bt.

Trend analysis of pests and diseases complex in Bt cotton

Journal of Crop Protection, 2015
The significant reduction of bollworm infestation by the implementation of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) in Bt Cotton as a component of IPM led to reduction in bollworm infestation and increase in yield. However, these alterations have brought in many

Intentions and attitudes of caregivers towards enrolment of their children and adolescents living with HIV into remission trials involving analytic treatment interruption

Journal of the International AIDS Society, Volume 29, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Introduction The development of approaches and interventions to achieve HIV remission continues to accelerate. Children living with HIV who started antiretroviral therapy (ART) at a young age and sustain viral suppression are an ideal clinical trial population. Trials may require analytic treatment interruptions (ATIs).

A natural barrier: tick‐repellent potential of a spruce‐derived volatile blend against Hyalomma excavatum and Ixodes ricinus

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 2, Page 1481-1491, February 2026.
Both active and passive questing ticks, Hyalomma excavatum and Ixodes ricinus, were assessed for behavioural responses to two novel plant‐derived repellent volatile organic compound blends. Both tick species were repelled by the products, and both novo blends were significantly more repellent than currently available commercial products.
