Attending to Preservice Teachers' Assets: Beliefs and Practices for Supporting Expansive Sensemaking in Elementary Science

open access: yesScience Education, Volume 110, Issue 3, Page 756-779, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Preservice elementary science teachers' beliefs and practices influence the kinds of adaptations they make to curriculum materials and the extent to which they are able to enact justice‐oriented science lessons. Through this qualitative study, we explored the beliefs and practices of five focal preservice teachers through an analysis of their ...

Electrothermal Twisted and Coiled Polymer Artificial Muscles and Their Applications in Soft Robotics

open access: yesSmall Structures, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.
Researchers develop a PE@SPN electrothermal polymer artificial muscle with a parallel‐stranded spiral structure. A temperature self‐sensing‐driven hierarchical closed‐loop fractional order PID (FOPID) control scheme is adopted. A rehabilitation manipulator was designed, and subsequently, a series of experiments are conducted to test the performance of ...

Gaining insights into MmpL3: combining structural and computational approaches to unlock transport and inhibitor‐binding mechanisms

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section D, Volume 82, Issue 5, Page 550-570, May 2026.
This study investigates the mycobacterial membrane protein MmpL3, a key target for new antituberculosis drugs, by combining high‐resolution crystallography and computational simulations. It reveals how the inhibitor UPAR‐1109 binds to MmpL3, providing detailed insights into the function and flexibility of the protein and supporting the rational design ...

Investigation of Potential Risks in Bio‐Based Food Contact Materials (FCMs) From Microbial Exploitation of Agricultural Wastes: Case Studies of Bacterial Cellulose and Nisin

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In the context of the circular economy and the increasing demand for safe and sustainable packaging, this work addresses the safety assessment of food contact materials (FCMs) derived from agro‐industrial by‐products. Despite growing interest in these bio‐based materials, the literature still lacks a structured safety‐assessment framework able

What are the carbon services from cover‐crop adoption worth from farmers' perspective?

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 108, Issue 3, Page 901-925, May 2026.
Abstract We derive shadow prices of carbon services provided by cover crops relative to non‐cover‐crop agricultural practices, accounting for carbon sequestration and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. We model the agricultural technology by integrating crop production, carbon sequestration, and GHG emissions.

Floral resource strips enhance parasitoid abundance and diversity in apple orchards and promote agroecological advances in a South African biosphere reserve

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 559-572, May 2026.
Floral resource strips within apple orchards increased parasitoid abundance and influenced community composition, enhancing local biodiversity in the Kogelberg Biosphere Reserve's transition zone. Ruderal and natural fynbos habitats supported higher parasitoid richness and abundance, emphasising the importance of conserving semi‐natural habitats ...
