Fucoidan: An Update on Function, Role in Human Health and Applications
Chemical Biology &Drug Design, Volume 107, Issue 5, May 2026.Fucoidan is a promising bioactive compound with anti‐inflammatory, anticoagulant, anticancer, antioxidant, antiviral, and cardioprotective properties. In addition, thanks to its epigenetic potential, ability to modulate autophagic mechanisms and possibility adjuvant agent or bioactive component of the drug delivery systems, fucoidan is a promising ...

European Journal of Haematology, Volume 116, Issue 5, Page 625-634, May 2026.ABSTRACT Background Managing febrile neutropenia is challenging due to the limited sensitivity of blood culture (BC) and the lack of tools differentiating infectious from non‐infectious fever. T2 magnetic resonance (T2MR) is a culture‐independent system detecting bacteria (T2Bacteria) and yeasts (T2Candida); SeptiCyte RAPID is a host response assay ...

Soil sand content is a driving force in structuring bee communities
Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 675-685, May 2026.We conducted a carefully designed observational study across three soil sand content categories using Dalea purpurea that attracts a wide range of bee species and grows in different soil types. Soil sand content, not floral resource availability, affected patterns of bee distribution, and contrary to expectations, sandier sites did not host the highest

Protistan Predators Outshine Fungi in Forest Soil Activity
Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 3, May/June 2026.ABSTRACT Despite extensive research on fungal communities in forest soils, our understanding of the whole eukaryotic diversity and distribution remains limited. Moreover, traditional amplicon sequencing methods often introduce severe PCR and primer biases, further hindering accurate assessment of the microbial community composition in forest soils.

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 3, May/June 2026.ABSTRACT Cockroaches are known reservoirs for diverse bacterial microbiomes. However, comprehensive analyses of the eukaryotic communities within cockroaches remain limited. In this study, we selected three long‐term laboratory‐reared cockroach species (Blattella germanica, Periplaneta fuliginosa, and Periplaneta japonica) and performed metabarcoding ...
