Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Breaking polyphenol–polysaccharide interactions: the promising role of natural deep eutectic solvents

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Food processing generates substantial amounts of byproducts rich in valuable bioactive compounds, particularly polyphenols, known for their antioxidant, anti‐UV, and antimicrobial properties. These molecules hold great potential in sectors such as food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.

Punicalagin‐enriched edible coatings from revalorized pomegranate peels for quality enhancement of fresh‐cut celery

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Pomegranate peel is a rich source of phenolics, particularly punicalagin, but its valorization for fresh produce preservation requires stabilization. This study aimed to develop and evaluate freeze‐dried encapsulates of pomegranate peel extracts as ingredients in edible coatings for fresh‐cut celery. Pomegranate peels were extracted

Polyphenol dietary supplementation prevents inflammation‐induced muscle atrophy in a zebrafish (Danio rerio) model

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Diet‐induced inflammation is a major cause of muscle degeneration impacting human and animal health. Owing to their anti‐inflammatory and antioxidant properties, polyphenols have attracted considerable interest as feed additives.

Coupling of Physical Protection and Molecular Composition Drives Carbon Sequestration Divergence in Soils Planted With Different Tea Varieties

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tea plantations represent significant carbon (C) sinks in agricultural landscapes, yet how variety‐specific organic inputs are associated with the molecular composition and stability of soil organic carbon (SOC) within aggregate hierarchies remains unclear.

From mainland to islands: the evolution of resistance and tolerance to herbivory in long‐lived oaks

Oikos, EarlyView.
Island biogeography theory predicts that island plants should exhibit reduced defences compared with their mainland relatives due to relaxed herbivory pressure. However, growing empirical evidence challenges this prediction, revealing substantial variation among systems, plant lineages and defence types.

Electrospun fibrous sorbents for the removal of uranium and americium from aqueous media

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Polymethacrylate‐based electrospun microfibers with tertiary amino functionalities are evaluated as adsorbents for U‐232 and Am‐241 in both simplified and complex (seawater) water matrices, highlighting their ability for efficient actinide removal. Abstract Polymethacrylate‐based electrospun microfibers containing tertiary amino functionalities were ...
