Reinventing henna: Enzyme‐catalysed colour release from stabilized Lawsonia inermis L. extracts

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, Volume 48, Issue 2, Page 310-326, April 2026.
The instability and reduced dyeing performance of a cosmetic formulation containing 2‐hydroxy‐1,4‐naphthoquinone (lawsone), derived from Lawsonia inermis L., is demonstrated in comparison to a novel two‐component system. This system comprises one formulation with naturally occurring lawsone precursors and a second containing a specific hydrolase ...

Commissioning an Inexpensive Off‐The‐Shelf Spectrograph for Radial‐Velocity Studies

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 347, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT We present a way to set up an inexpensive out of the shelf spectrograph at a local observatory. Stability and resolution of the spectrograph are high enough for radial velocity determination of binary stars or determination of stellar characteristics. Even some exoplanets might be detectable via the radial velocity method.

Differentiation of Ecological Niches in Trophic Specialists From a Disturbed Lacustrine Ecosystem: Insights from the Sympatric Lake Tana Labeobarbs (Cyprinidae)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Lake Tana harbors the world's most complex adaptive radiation of cyprinids in the world. Although trophic specialization has been proven to drive this diversification, the diet of endemics has been studied using only traditional stomach content analysis.

Water Vapor Vertical Distribution on Mars After Six Years of TGO/NOMAD Solar Occultations: 1. Global Climatology

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract We present vertical profiles of water vapor obtained during six continuous years of solar occultation observations in the infrared by the Nadir and Occultation for MArs Discovery (NOMAD) instrument on board Trace Gas Orbiter. The retrievals have been performed with an inversion code previously applied to smaller samples of this data set, but ...

Water Vapor Vertical Distribution on Mars After Six Years of TGO/NOMAD Solar Occultations: 2. Cross‐Validation Within TGO and Comparison With MPCM

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract This is the second part of an investigation of water vapor in the Martian atmosphere using solar occultation observations by the Nadir and Occultation for MArs Discovery (NOMAD) spectrometer on board the ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter. Following the analysis of six Earth years of NOMAD observations performed in the first part, a cross‐validation ...

An arbuscular mycorrhiza from the 407‐million‐year‐old Windyfield Chert identified through advanced fluorescence and Raman imaging

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 448-459, January 2026.
Summary Mycorrhizal associations between fungi and plants are a fundamental aspect of terrestrial ecosystems. Mycorrhizas occur in c. 85% of extant plants, yet their geological record remains sparse. Rare fossil evidence from early terrestrial environments offers crucial insights into these ancient symbioses, but visualizing fossil fungi at the ...

Dry Reforming of Methane Over Ceria Supported Catalysts Produced by Direct Impregnation with Leachate Solution from Spent Diesel Auto‐Catalysts

ChemCatChem, Volume 17, Issue 22, November 24, 2025.
The Pt‐containing leachate solution obtained by a hydrometallurgical recovery route of spent diesel oxidation catalysts was successfully used to fabricate Pt/CeO2 catalysts. Dry reforming of methane and reverse water gas shift tests showed good conversion efficiencies, with negligible carbon deposition after ToS experiments of several hours.

Elemental Analysis of Catalysts in a Fixed‐Bed Reactor by Laser‐Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy

ChemCatChem, Volume 17, Issue 21, November 10, 2025.
The “Elemental Composition” provides information about promoters and poisons found in heterogeneous catalysts. Access to this piece of information under reaction conditions remains yet an unsolved challenge. This work explores the potential and limitations of laser‐induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) as an in situ reactor diagnostic technique ...

Bubbling Water‐Treating DBD Plasma Device Optimization Using Experimental and Computational Methods

Plasma Processes and Polymers, Volume 22, Issue 5, May 2025.
A dry air atmospheric pressure volume dielectric barrier discharge is employed to fix nitrogen in water. Producing nitrate for use as nitrogen fertilizer is the primary motivation. A 0D chemistry model is developed and informed by the electrical, and geometric characteristics of the device and the plasma gas temperature.
