Suitability of Electrochemical Sensing on Screen‐Printed Carbon Electrodes for the Identification of Eutylone (βk‐EBDB)

open access: yesElectroanalysis, Volume 38, Issue 3, March 2026.
Voltammetric methods on screen‐printed carbon electrodes were employed for the rapid detection of the synthetic cathinone β‐keto‐ethylbenzodioxolylbutanamine (βk‐EBDB) in supporting electrolyte and human biological fluids. The electroanalytical method is promising as a portable drug testing device for on‐site applications—providing a repeatable linear ...

Effects of Land Use Types on Surface Soil Acidity in the Highlands of Sidama, Ethiopia: Implications for Sustainable Land Management

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Soil Science, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Unsustainable land uses substantially alter soil properties, exacerbating soil acidification, threatening soil fertility, and impacting crop productivity globally, including in Ethiopia. Hence, assessing the impacts of various land use types (LUTs) on soil characteristics is imperative for the implementation of sustainable land management.

Spatial Variability of Soil Organic Carbon Stocks Along a Toposequence in Lake Haramaya Watershed, Eastern Ethiopia

open access: yesAdvances in Agriculture, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Soil organic carbon (SOC) and SOC stock (SOCS), underpin soil health and carbon sequestration. However, their spatial controls in topographically heterogeneous landscapes remain unclear. This study aims to investigate the spatial variability of SOC and SOCS along three toposequences in the Lake Haramaya watershed, Eastern Ethiopia, using depth‐explicit
