Studying the Outcomes and Mechanisms of Carbocationic Rearrangements Using Algorithm‐Augmented Experimentation

ChemistryEurope, Volume 4, Issue 2, February 2026.
HopCat, a hybrid algorithm combining rule‐based transformations with quantum‐informed kinetics, can be applied to acid‐catalyzed terpenoid rearrangements. In synergy with human chemists and nuclear magnetic resonance analysis, it facilitates product assignment, candidate selection, and reconstruction of complex mechanistic pathways.

Insecticide Resistance Alters Oviposition Preference in Drosophila melanogaster

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Using isogenic Drosophila melanogaster lines that differ at the well‐characterised Cyp6g1 resistance locus, we show that insecticide resistance is associated with altered oviposition site choice—an adaptive behaviour with transgenerational fitness consequences.

Linalool as a potential agent for inhibiting Escherichia coli biofilm formation and exopolysaccharide production

BMC Veterinary Research
Escherichia coli (E. coli) is one of the most common pathogens causing endometritis in dairy cows. The presence of genes encoding extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) and biofilm formation are important factors contributing to bacterial resistance, which

Uncovering the Key Factors Influencing Phytochemical and Phytopharmacological Properties During Medicinal Plant Processing

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
From farm to pharma, this review details the engineering of quality in medicinal plants through a science‐driven approach: it first elucidates how genetic and environmental factors inscribe the plant's phytochemical and phytopharmacological profile before harvest, and then dissects the postharvest techniques and technologies—chemical and thermal pre ...

Virtual Screening of Phytochemicals From Medicinal Plants as Promising PDE5 Inhibitors Against Erectile Dysfunction

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Phytochemicals from Algerian medicinal plants were virtually screened as potential phosphodiesterase‐5 (PDE5) inhibitors for erectile dysfunction therapy. Drug‐likeness and toxicity analyses identified catechin, ellagic acid, and rosmarinic acid as safe, bioavailable candidates.
