Chemical Ionization Mass Spectrometry: Fundamental Principles, Diverse Applications, and the Latest Technological Frontiers

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The review examines the evolution of chemical ionization mass spectrometry (CI‐MS), a technique developed in 1966 by Field and Munson. CI is a soft‐ionization method that produces more intense molecular ions with less fragmentation than electron ionization (EI).

Solvent‐Free Fabrication of Eco‐Friendly pH‐Sensitive Smart Films From Poly(Butylene Succinate) and Red Cabbage Anthocyanin for Tracking of Chicken Breast Spoilage

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Smart label design. ABSTRACT The growing interest to ensure food safety requires the development of smart indicator systems that are capable of real‐time tracking of spoilage, particularly for perishable foods. Therefore, the purpose of this work is to fabricate eco‐friendly, industrially viable pH‐sensitive smart films via solvent‐free melt ...

Synthesis of Carboxyl Terminated Polymyrcene by Anionic Polymerization Using CO2 as a Terminating Agent

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
The anionic polymerization of myrcene and termination with carbon dioxide to produce carboxyl terminated chains were investigated. The highest degree of functionalization was obtained in the batch reactor by headspace addition of the CO2 to the unstirred reactor at −78°C.

A walk in the park—Identifying healthy greenspaces using scents

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
As urbanisation accelerates globally, access to nature is increasingly recognised as vital for public health and wellbeing. We captured and analysed plant‐emitted airborne ‘scent signatures’ across Oxford's urban greenspaces to assess their potential health relevance.

Host‐associated chemical cues mediating host‐finding behaviour in the larval ectoparasitoid Cephalonomia tarsalis

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Host‐associated volatiles mediate host location in Cephalonomia tarsalis, with faecal odours from fourth‐instar larvae, particularly 1‐pentadecene, attracting females and supporting the biological control of stored‐product pest beetles. Abstract BACKGROUND Understanding how parasitoids locate their hosts is essential for improving the effectiveness of ...

Commercial permethrin elicits chemoreceptive responses on different Anopheles gambiae sensory appendages

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes exhibit takeoff responses when presented to commercial permethrin headspace. This product elicits electrophysiological activity in the antennae and tarsi. However, only the chemical information acquired from the tarsi plays a major role in the observed behavioral response.

Microbiome‐mediated chemical communication in insects: Implications for pest management

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Microbiome–semiochemical interactions involve the following processes: direct microbial synthesis, host gene regulation, precursor biotransformation, microbiome modulation and indirect ecological signaling. Abstract Insects rely on semiochemicals to regulate aggregation, mating, foraging, and host selection. This review synthesizes evidence that insect‐

Dose–response modelling uncovers compound‐specific inhibitory effects of host defence volatiles on mountain pine beetle fungal symbionts

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Host defence volatiles inhibit mountain pine beetle fungal symbionts in a compound‐ and enantiomer‐specific manner, with distinct dose–response profiles that reveal the multitarget chemical defences of beetle–fungi symbiotes. Abstract BACKGROUND The mountain pine beetle relies on symbiotic fungi to overcome host tree defences, yet these fungi must ...

Porous Modified Calcium Carbonate as an Efficient Carrier for Gallic and Ascorbic Acids in Humidity‐Activated Oxygen Scavenging Systems

Packaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
Porous modified calcium carbonate (MCC) is presented as an efficient carrier for humidity‐activated oxygen scavengers based on gallic acid and ascorbic acid. The porous MCC structure preserves high accessibility of the active compounds, enabling effective oxygen scavenging under high relative humidity, with performance governed by loading level ...
