A synergistic alliance between nematophagous fungi and organic matter against plant‐parasitic nematodes: a systematic review

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8104-8119, September 2026.
Certain beneficial fungi are widely used to control harmful nematodes in crops, especially when combined with organic matter. Together, they improve soil health, support plant growth, and enhance nutrient cycling. This natural partnership offers a promising, environmentally friendly approach to strengthening sustainable agriculture and reducing ...

Ferulic acid‐impregnated sodium alginate–pectin biopolymer film for active packaging and shelf‐life extension of potato chips

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 11, Page 6428-6441, 30 August 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND This study explores the development of active films incorporating ferulic acid (FA), a natural antioxidant, at concentrations of 0 (F1), 2.5 (F2), and 5 g L−1 (F3) into sodium alginate (SA; 13 g kg−1) and pectin (P; 10 g kg−1) matrix.

Replacing conventional substrate with linseed cake improves the omega-3 profile of Zophobas atratus fabricius (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) larvae

Future Foods
Edible insects emerge as sustainable sources of protein, lipids, and minerals for human consumption, with the potential for transformation and bioaccumulation of nutritional compounds from alternative feeds. This study examined the nutritional enrichment

Experimental Characterization of Mycelium‐Based Composites Under Multiple Loading Conditions

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 15, 5 August 2026.
This study examines the mechanical response of mycelium‐based composites under compression, shear, and tension using mechanical testing and imaging methods. The comparison between unpressed and hot‐pressed specimens shows that hot pressing is associated with higher compression and shear stiffnesses.

Nutritional Composition of African Catfish (Clarias gariepinus) in Ghana: Effects of Culture Conditions, Feed and Processing

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
This review synthesizes current evidence on the nutritional composition of African catfish (Clarias gariepinus), with emphasis on Ghanaian aquaculture. The species is a valuable source of high‐quality protein, essential amino acids, minerals and vitamins, although lipid composition varies widely.

Dual Functions of Dietary Rubber Seed Oil Supplementation: Enriching N‐3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and Enhancing Antioxidant Capacity in Pekin Ducks

Animal Research and One Health, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 247-260, August 2026.
Dietary RSO supplementation improved growth performance, simultaneously enriched n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n‐3 PUFA), and enhanced antioxidant capacity in Pekin ducks, which suggested that RSO has the potential to be a novel n‐3 PUFA source and an antioxidant for Pekin ducks to generate animal functional foods.

Effect of Linseed Feeding on Carcass and Meat Quality and Intramuscular Fatty Acid Profile of Simmental Bulls Slaughtered at Different Ages

Foods
The inclusion of linseed in cattle diets can improve the fatty acid (FA) profile of meat, but the effects of supplementation at different ages have been insufficiently studied.

A Feasibility Assessment of Measuring Acceptance and Adherence to a Plant‐Based (Vegan) Diet in a Cardiology Clinic

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 49, Issue 8, August 2026.
A plant‐based vegan diet in cardiac outpatients was feasible and well accepted, with 55% achieving full adherence. Improvements in PBVD score, cholesterol, BMI, weight, and waist circumference were observed over 8 weeks. The PBVD score is a useful tool for assessing adherence and diet quality. ABSTRACT Background Plant‐based vegan diets (PBVDs) improve

Effects of ketogenic and low‐carbohydrate diet on glucose and weight control in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients along with metabolome change

Clinical and Translational Discovery, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
Both the low‐carbohydrate diet (LCD) and the ketogenic diet (KD) positively affect body weight and glucose metabolism in type 2 diabetes. Metabolomic signatures sensitively reflect each diet and correlate with clinical improvements – distinct metabolite associations with glycated haemoglobin and weight were identified for LCD versus KD.

Ketogenic diet therapy for children with super‐refractory status epilepticus in intensive care: International clinical practice recommendations

Epilepsia Open, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 1354-1369, August 2026.
Abstract Objective We aimed to create practical recommendations to support healthcare teams starting ketogenic diet therapy (KDT) for children with super‐refractory status epilepticus in intensive care settings. Methods A literature review was conducted to extract published data on patient selection, diet prescription, diet initiation, monitoring, fine‐
