Modelling risk areas in the North Sea for blooms of the invasive comb jelly Mnemiopsis leidyi A. Agassiz, 1865

open access: yes, 2014
Recent records of the invasive ctenophore Mnemiopis leidyi A. Agassiz, 1865 in the North Sea are a cause for concern due to the detrimental effects this invader has had on fish stocks in the Black and Caspian seas. The North Sea is a major fishing ground

3D‐printing of Methacryloylated Recombinant Collagen for Tissue Engineering

open access: yesChemistrySelect, Volume 11, Issue 17, 5 May 2026.
Recombinant collagen‐like proteins offer promise as alternatives to mammalian collagens. There is less risk of disease transfer, and changes in structure can be readily introduced. Here, a recombinant collagen‐like protein was methacryloylated for extrusion printing and rapid photo‐crosslinking.

First records of two lobate comb-jellies (Ctenophora) from the Pakistani coast [PDF]

open access: yesCheck List, 2015
The knowledge on the comb-jellies faunistics along the southern Asian coast is very scarce. For some countries such as Pakistan there are no previous formal records of ctenophores. This study is a first survey to the group diversity along Pakistani coast, resulting in the first records of two lobate species, Bolinopsis infundibulum and Ocyropsis ...

Extracts From Grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) Peel via Microwave‐Assisted and Conventional Extractions: Evaluation of Nosema Infection and Toxicity in Honey Bees

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
Conventional and microwave‐assisted extractions of grapefruit peels were optimized using response surface methodology (RSM) based on TPC, TFC, and antioxidant activity (DPPH). The phytochemical profiles of the two optimum extracts were characterized via HPLC before evaluating their acute and chronic toxicity, as well as their effects on honey bee (Apis

Finding a rare fossilized comb jelly reveals new gaps in the fossil record

open access: yes, 2021
They look like jellyfish but they aren’t. They seem inoffensive but are efficient predators — occasionally, they even eat fish. They are gelatinous and very delicate — and extremely rarely do they fossilize! Ctenophores, also known as comb jellies, are colourful, translucent animals, that drift through oceanic waters.

Propolis and Beeswax in Cosmetics: A Market Survey and Literature Review on Their Relationship and Role in Allergic Contact Dermatitis

open access: yesContact Dermatitis, Volume 94, Issue 5, Page 494-503, May 2026.
Propolis is rarely used in conventional cosmetics within the EU, and such products are therefore unlikely to be significant sources of exposure for patients with positive patch test reactions to propolis. There is no evidence that small amounts of propolis in white beeswax (cera alba) in cosmetics can trigger allergic contact dermatitis in individuals ...

Biofabrication of Endothelialized, Intrinsically Vascularized 3D‐Printed Recombinant Spider Silk Scaffolds

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 16, 24 April 2026.
This study evaluates 3D‐printed recombinant spider silk hydrogel eADF4(C16)‐RGD in a rat AV loop model for tissue engineering. Constructs with T17b endothelial progenitor cells showed enhanced vascularization and biodegradation. Results highlight the importance of scaffold design and cellular integration in improving vascular density and overall ...

Separator Engineering for Stable Zinc Anodes in Aqueous Zinc‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesBatteries &Supercaps, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2026.
Aqueous Zinc‐ion batteries boast high energy density, low cost, and safety but face challenges like zinc dendrites, hydrogen evolution reaction, and anode corrosion. Separator engineering—modifying glass fiber separators and developing novel ones—addresses these issues, boosting their electrochemical performance and long‐cycle stability.

Honey as a Natural Flavorful Product: A Comprehensive Review of Its Potential Biological Activities and Recent Studies

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Health impacts of honey. ABSTRACT Honey is a natural and nutritious product of the honey bee (Apis mellifera) with low water content. Its color ranges from white to amber, with taste varying accordingly. The chemical form and viscosity of honey depend on its composition.
