Autonomous Machine Learning‐Based Classification and Arrangement of Submillimeter Objects Using a Capillary Force Gripper

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, Volume 2, Issue 4, August 2026.
This study presents an automated system integrating a capillary force gripper and machine learning‐based object detection for sorting and placing submillimeter objects. The system achieved stable and simultaneous manipulation of four object types, with an average task time of 86.0 seconds and a positioning error of 157 ± 84 µm, highlighting its ...

Fear of grazing rivals the toxin‐inducing effects of nutrients in two marine harmful algae – a meta‐analysis

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1904-1921, August 2026.
ABSTRACT One of the major subfields of chemical ecology is the study of toxins and how they mediate interactions between organisms. Toxins produced by harmful algae (phycotoxins) impact a wide variety of organisms connected to the marine food web. Significant research efforts have thus aimed to identify the ecological and evolutionary drivers behind ...

The Inertness of the Lysozyme Template: Assessing the Structural Impact of Silicification Byproducts and Precursors

Chemistry–Methods, Volume 6, Issue 8, August 2026.
Lysozyme templates bioinspired silicification via localized electrostatic pooling, at variance with disordered peptides, require counterion‐driven coacervation. Small‐angle X‐ray scattering and NMR spectroscopy reveal that the folded lysozyme template remains structurally inert and monomeric in the presence of silicic acid mimics and alcohol byproducts.

A Multilocus Nanopore eDNA Workflow for Red Algal Diversity Assessment in an Algal Reef System

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
This study evaluates an Oxford Nanopore Technologies long‐read sequencing workflow using a multilocus eDNA approach to assess red algal (Rhodophyta) biodiversity in coastal waters. Results demonstrate that while a combination of rbcL, rpoC1, and psbA markers (but not COI‐5P) provides the most comprehensive taxonomic coverage, eDNA signals are heavily ...

Desiccation to DNA: Bulk DNA Metabarcoding of Macroinvertebrate Egg Banks via Sugar‐Flotation Enhances Biodiversity Surveys of Dry Salt Lakes

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Ephemeral salt lakes in arid Australia contain hidden macroinvertebrate biodiversity in sediment egg banks, but traditional artificial rehydration surveys may miss taxa with specific or poorly understood hatching requirements. This study found that sugar‐flotation followed by DNA metabarcoding greatly improved detection of resting‐stage taxa compared ...

Copper Slag‐Derived Cu3Fe17@C Alloy Enabling Efficient Peroxymonosulfate Activation for Levofloxacin Degradation via Cu‐Mediated Electron Transfer With Suppressed Metal Leaching

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Although alloy‐based materials present potential for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation, metal ion leaching remains severely restricted during the pollution degradation process. Herein, the porous carbon‐supported Fe–Cu alloy derived from industrial copper slag was prepared to remove the organic pollutants from wastewater while inhibiting the ...

Improved Stability in LiX‐NbCl5 (X = Cl, Br) Glass‐Ceramic Electrolytes Through Anion Mixing for Solid‐State Batteries

Small, Volume 22, Issue 45, 13 August 2026.
Chlorine gas evolves at the end of charge in solid‐state batteries with LiNbCl5X (X = Cl−, Br−) catholytes. This can be mitigated to some extent by introducing bromine and has a positive effect on electrochemical stability but does not impair ionic conductivity.

Transient Ecological Niches for Diazotrophs in Upwelling Bays

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Diazotrophs, microorganisms capable of fertilizing the ocean through biological nitrogen fixation (BNF), are widespread in the oceans, including upwelling bays. However, their ability to respond to short‐lived upwelling pulses, lasting only a few days, remains poorly understood. To investigate diazotrophy across temporal scales, we analyzed 18
