Advantages of low‐glycaemic‐index carbohydrates in regulating glycaemic response of energy bar: A review

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Energy bars are widely consumed functional foods among athletes and physically active consumers who require convenient sources of sustained energy. Their carbohydrate composition, particularly the type and ratio of digestible sugars such as glucose, fructose and sucrose, strongly influences glycaemic index (GI), postprandial blood glucose ...

Effect of the addition of yacon flour (Smallanthus sonchifolius) and freezing on baking performance

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Yacon (Smallanthus sonchifolius), a tuber rich in fructans, presents potential for application in breadmaking due to its nutritional properties and cryoprotectant activity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incorporation of yacon flour in bread formulations (50 g/kg and 100 g/kg on flour mixture basis) and its impact on ...

From Salt‐Affected Marginal Land Resource to Remediation Agent: Halophyte‐Derived Biochar for Ameliorating Cd‐Contaminated Acidic Soil

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cadmium (Cd) contamination of acidic soils poses a significant threat to ecosystem stability and crop health. This study evaluated the potential of biochar derived from the halophyte Salicornia europaea (SBC), a salt‐tolerant plant that grows on saline‐alkali marginal land, to remediate Cd‐contaminated acidic soil.

Multifunctionality in Silicon Photonics Through Temperature‐Driven Inverse Design

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Temperature‐conditioned inverse design embeds thermo‐optic reconfigurability directly into compact silicon photonic devices. By co‐optimizing a single geometry at 300 K (T1) and 520 K (T2), the same structure supports distinct optical functions, enabling experimentally verified switching and mode conversion without resonant architectures or additional ...

Beyond Bioenergetics: Moonlighting Functions of F1FO‐ATPase From ATP Synthesis to an ATP‐Wasting Death Switch

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mitochondrial F1FO‐ATPase is classically viewed as the “splendid” rotary nanomachine that sustains life by converting the proton‐motive force (pmf) into ATP. Yet this same complex can adopt a second, context‐dependent function that links bioenergetics to cell fate.
