From Agro‐Industrial Waste to Functional Packaging Using Antimicrobial and Mechanically Reinforced Starch Foams With Melon Seed and Rosemary

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 43, November 15, 2026.
Agro‐industrial waste was upcycled into biodegradable starch foams reinforced with melon seed and rosemary flours, yielding sustainable food packaging with enhanced mechanical performance, selective antimicrobial activity, and rapid biodegradation. ABSTRACT The demand for sustainable alternatives to petroleum‐based packaging has promoted starch‐based ...

Composition‐Tunable Lignocellulosic Aerogels From Eucalyptus spp. Bark for Oil and Cu2+ Adsorption

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 43, November 15, 2026.
Composition‐tunable lignocellulosic aerogels are produced from Eucalyptus spp. bark by combining cellulose, lignin, and microfibrillated cellulose without post‐synthetic functionalization. The resulting porous architectures show contaminant‐dependent performance: CEL favors cooking‐oil uptake, CEL‐M favors pump‐oil uptake, and CEL‐L‐M provides the ...

Growth, Carcass Quality and Gut Microbiota Responses to Extruded Rapeseed Meal With Protease in Broiler Chickens

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 6, November 2026.
The 5%–7.5% extruded rapeseed meal improved broiler growth, nutrient digestibility, carcass traits, intestinal morphology and gut microbial balance. ABSTRACT Background Soybean meal (SBM) is a major protein source in broiler diets, but its cost and dependence on a limited number of protein sources have increased interest in alternative feed ingredients.

Edible Biopolymer Coatings for Postharvest Preservation in Warm‐Chain Horticultural Supply Chain: Mechanisms, Materials, Design Strategies, and Future Directions

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Fresh fruit and vegetable postharvest losses reach 30%–50% between harvest and consumption, concentrated in low‐ and middle‐income countries where warm‐chain supply chains (20°C–35°C, 55%–85% relative humidity, intermittent handling) replace the refrigerated cold chains conventional technology assumes.

Programmable Pneumatic Actuator System for a Bioinspired Artificial Colon

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 11, Issue 20, 21 October 2026.
A modular soft robotic colon simulator driven by programmable pneumatic actuation is developed to mimic physiological and pathological‐like motility patterns of the large intestine. Finite element–guided design and distributed control enable anatomically realistic deformation for peristalsis, segmentation, and mass movements, supporting capsule ...
