Soil Moisture and Prey Life Cycles Promote Seasonal Dietary Shift in a Grassland‐Breeding Migratory Shorebird

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
In this study, we utilized DNA metabarcoding of 207 fecal samples to describe the diet of flock‐foraging godwits in southwest Friesland, the Netherlands, during pre‐nesting (March) and post‐nesting (May–June) periods. To assess whether dietary changes were resource or selectivity based, we simultaneously quantified soil macrofauna biomass and measured ...

NIRS Coupled With Machine Learning Algorithms for the Authentication and Quality Assessment of Indigenous Cattle and Buffalo Meat

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 5, October 2026.
Portable NIRS combined with machine learning enabled rapid and accurate authentication of cattle and buffalo meat. Optimized models (XGBoost, CNN) achieved > 98% accuracy, while SHAP revealed key spectral regions. This dual approach offers a field‐ready, reagent‐free tool for fraud prevention and traceability. ABSTRACT Ensuring the authenticity of high‐

Catalytic Pyrolysis of Torrefied Municipal Solid Waste Using Local Iron for Improved Bio‐Oil Yield and Energy Efficiency

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 10, Page 4866-4882, October 2026.
Catalytic Pyrolysis of Torrefied Municipal Solid Waste to sustainable bio‐oil. ABSTRACT South Africa faces growing municipal solid waste (MSW) accumulation and energy insecurity due to fossil fuel dependence. Torrefaction improves MSW for waste‐to‐energy use, while conventional pyrolysis produces low‐quality oxygen‐rich bio‐oil.

Enhancing the Shelf Life and Microbial Safety of Refrigerated Eggs Using Edible Coatings of Aloe Vera Gel Combined With Fennel and Lime Peel Essential Oils

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study investigated the effectiveness of an edible coating based on aloe vera gel (100%) combined with fennel and lime peel essential oils for improving the quality and microbial safety of refrigerated eggs. During refrigerated storage, application of the coating reduced egg weight loss, helped maintain a higher Haugh unit, moderated changes in ...

Biological Insights From the Osteohistology of a Nile Crocodile

Journal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 10, October 2026.
Intraskeletal histological analysis of Crocodylus niloticus shows substantial variation in growth mark preservation across postcranial elements. Gastralia preserve the highest number of growth marks, while the radius, ulna, and fibula are the most reliable long bones for skeletochronology.
