Peck or pass? Individual‐level testing of a bird‐repellent seed coating

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Using sequential unique‐choice tests on an urban population of ringed carrion crows, we show that black pepper oleoresin‐treated maize seeds were avoided, while color alone had no deterrent effect. Abstract Background Carrion crows (Corvus corone) are a major depredating species of spring crops across European agroecosystems, especially during sowing ...

Effect of Fe Doping on the Structural, Morphological, Optical, and Magnetic Properties of Ca2InTaO6 Double Perovskite

open access: yesphysica status solidi (b), EarlyView.
Fe‐doped Ca2InTaO6 double perovskites are synthesized via solid‐state reaction and systematically investigated. Rietveld refinement confirms orthorhombic Pbnm structure, while optical studies reveal a bandgap narrowing from 3.31 to 2.84 eV. Photoluminescence spectra exhibit strong red emission at 671 nm with optimal intensity at 10 mol% Fe ...

Enhanced Active Packaging Properties Through the Incorporation of Pomegranate Seed Oil Micro‐ and Nanoparticles

open access: yesPackaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
Biodegradable cassava starch films were developed incorporating micro‐ and nanoencapsulated pomegranate seed oil (PSO). The films exhibited enhanced mechanical flexibility, antioxidant activity and UV‐barrier properties. Particle size influenced the functional behaviour, highlighting lipid encapsulation as a key strategy to stabilize bioactive ...

Valorization of Garcinia humilis Residues in Active Collagen/Starch Films for Biodegradable Packaging Applications

open access: yesPackaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
Residues from Garcinia humilis were used to obtain a phenolic‐rich extract (GHRE) and incorporated into collagen–starch films. The addition of GHRE improved antioxidant activity, thermal stability and elasticity, while reducing water vapour permeability.
