Experiential Marketing of Clean Drinking Water: Experimental Evidence for Kenya and Rwanda

Review of Development Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To date, limited work investigates how consumers in emerging markets make consumption decisions. With the rise in demand for clean drinking water in sub‐Sahara Africa, a field experiment was conducted on non‐consumers of two socially oriented drinking water companies providing low‐cost, re‐usable bottled drinking water in Kenya and Rwanda.

Sorghum Protein: Ethanol‐Based Extraction to Improve Yield and Properties

Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2026.
A key barrier to expanding the use of sorghum‐based proteins is the challenge related to protein extraction and utilization via conventional methods. This work evaluated a blended solvent approach (ethanol:alkali) for protein extraction from ground, pearled sorghum and wet‐milled sorghum protein meal to improve yield and properties.

Structure‐Guided Optimization and Biological Validation of 1,3,4‐Thiadiazole‐Based SIRT2 Inhibitors Reinforcing Channel Entrance Interactions

Drug Development Research, Volume 87, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT SIRT2, the cytoplasmic member of the sirtuin family, is generally acknowledged to promote cancer and contribute to the progression of various pathologies, including neurodegeneration, inflammation, obesity, and bacterial infection through the deacetylation of target substrates.

Restoration of Gut Microbiota and Metabolic Homeostasis by Lacticaseibacillus paracasei Zhang in Azithromycin‐Induced Dysbiosis

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study investigated whether Lacticaseibacillus paracasei Zhang could alleviate the gut microbiota imbalance and its systemic consequences caused by antibiotics. Mice treated with azithromycin exhibited gut microbiota disorders, and subsequent probiotic intervention was carried out.

Sex‐specific impact of repeated adolescent vapour exposure to JWH‐018 on dopamine response, behaviour and pharmacokinetics across adolescence and adulthood

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 7, Page 1517-1538, April 2026.
Abstract Background and Purpose Alarming trends show that vaping e‐cigarettes containing synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists, such as JWH‐018, is increasing among youth. However, the effects of these trends are unclear in both sexes. We therefore characterized the neuropharmacological effects of adolescent JWH‐018 inhalation in male and female rats.

Engineering of the Flavone Rutinoside Biosynthetic Pathway Enables Production of Diosmin, a Venoactive Compound in Solanum lycopersicum and Nicotiana tabacum

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 1936-1949, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Diosmin is often used as a dietary supplement, and it is sometimes used to make phlebotropic drugs for venous diseases. Traditionally, diosmin is obtained by the dehydrogenation of the flavanone glycoside hesperidin through chemical semisynthesis.

Plastid Engineering for Photosynthesis‐Driven Synthesis of Hyaluronic Acid in Tobacco

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2541-2558, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a glycosaminoglycan composed of alternating units of N‐acetylglucosamine and glucuronic acid. High moisture retention, viscoelasticity and biocompatibility are unique features that make HA polymers attractive compounds for medical applications and aesthetic purposes.

Convergent Evolution and De Novo Reconstitution of Apiin Biosynthesis

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2562-2575, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Apiin, an active flavonoid apioside, occurs in phylogenetically distant plants, such as parsley and chilli pepper (Capsicum annuum L.). Its sporadic distribution suggests the existence of convergent apiin biosynthesis; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying this convergence remain unclear.

A Curie Point Depth Model of the Conterminous United States Derived From a Prior‐Constrained Equivalent Source Inversion

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract The Curie Point Depth (CPD) is a key thermal boundary in the deep lithosphere and is widely used to constrain its thermal structure. However, uncertainties in magnetization and the non‐uniqueness of inversion lead to considerable inter‐study differences.
