Non‐destructive measurement of eggshell strength using NIR spectroscopy and explainable artificial intelligence

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Eggshell strength is crucial for ensuring high‐quality eggs, reducing breakage during handling, and meeting consumer expectations for freshness and integrity. Conventional methods of eggshell strength measurement are often destructive, time‐consuming and unsuitable for large‐scale applications.

A longitudinal analysis of pathogen shedding patterns in confiscated eastern box turtles

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Seventeen confiscated eastern box turtles were sampled for 4 pathogens monthly for a year to determine optimal sampling strategies and variation in pathogen shedding patterns. Observed prevalence values were within 10% of unbiased prevalence values, but the probability of detecting pathogens in an infected turtle during a given month was generally low,

Exogenous oxidized phytosterol may modulate linoleic acid metabolism through upregulation of fatty acid desaturase in rats

open access: yesLipids, EarlyView.
Abstract Previous in vitro studies have indicated that oxidized phytosterol (OPS) exhibits some toxicity; however, the harmful effects of OPS on fatty acid metabolism are not completely understood yet. Therefore, this study examined the effects of exogenous phytosterol (PS) and OPS on growth parameters and lipid metabolism in rats.

A Supramolecular, Triple Negative Breast Cancer‐Targeting Avidin‐Photosensitizer

open access: yesMacromolecular Bioscience, EarlyView.
This study investigates the targeted delivery of photosensitizers in triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC) using a Ru‐NH2‐modified avidin bioconjugate (RuAvi). RuAvi binds to the cinnamoyl peptide, F(D)LF(D)LFK‐NH2 (FK), targeting the formyl peptide receptor 1, which is overexpressed in TNBC.

Sustainable Shell Formulations as Alternative to the Conventional Soft Gelatin Capsules in Pharmaceutical and Nutraceutical Applications. A Review.

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
In soft capsules (SCs), four crucial factors can modify the properties of the shell: the shell formulation, its interaction with the fill material, the SC production and its storage conditions. Gelatin is the most used gelling agent for SCs nowadays, but they have some drawbacks which can be solved including other alternative polymers in the shell ...

Tomato Puree Enrichment in a High‐Fat Meal Reduces Postprandial Plasma and Adipose Tissue Inflammation Biomarkers in Healthy Male Adults: A Crossover Randomized Controlled Trial

open access: yesMolecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
Tomato puree enrichment in the context of a high‐fat meal in healthy adult males leads to a significant reduction of systemic postprandial and adipose tissue postprandial inflammation. ABSTRACT The postprandial period is marked by increased plasma inflammatory biomarkers and heightened adipose tissue inflammation.
