Requirement of group I lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase for turnover of chitinous cuticle during moulting in two forest pest beetles, Monochamus alternatus and Psacothea hilaris

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 115-125, April 2026.
Group I LPMO15‐1 cDNAs from two economically important forest insect pests, M. alternatus and P. hilaris, were cloned. MaLPMO15‐1 and PhLPMO15‐1 show a similar pattern of expression during late stages of development. RNAi for LPMO15‐1 causes failure of adult eclosion in both M. alternatus and P. hilaris.

Microstructure and superconductivity of bulk BPSCCO/LPMO composite

Philosophical Magazine Letters, 2011
Bulk superconducting (SC) ceramics containing BPSCCO and LPMO (Lanthanum/Lead – manganite phase) have been produced. The initial components were prepared by a low-temperature Pechini method. The submicron powders in weight ratio 90/10 Bi1.6Pb0.4Sr2Ca2Cu3Oz/La0.6Pb0.4MnO3 (nominal composition) were heat treated at 840°C.

Systematic Nutritional Clinical Assessment (SyNCA): Instrument Development, Delphi Protocol for Content, and Semantic Validation

Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics, Volume 39, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Malnutrition is a common complication in patients with chronic diseases, often exacerbated by clinical factors and increased metabolic demands. In individuals affected by Decompensated Chronic Liver Disease (DCLD), fluid retention, such as oedema and ascites, can hinder accurate nutritional assessment, leading to underdiagnosis or ...

Profile Comparer Extended: phylogeny of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase families using profile hidden Markov model alignments [version 1; peer review: 1 approved, 2 approved with reservations]

F1000Research, 2019
Insight into the inter- and intra-family relationship of protein families is important, since it can aid understanding of substrate specificity evolution and assign putative functions to proteins with unknown function.

Integrated green extraction of phenolic compounds and fermentable sugars from grapefruit peel using ultrasound and enzymatic hydrolysis

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 3, Page 1839-1851, February 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Valorizing sugar‐rich food waste in biorefineries offers a sustainable route to bio‐based products. Grapefruit peel (GP), representing about 50% of the fruit's weight, is rich in sugars (soluble and insoluble) and polyphenols such as flavonoids.

Anisotropic Transparency of Alkali‐Treated Wood

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 2, February 2026.
Alkali treatment makes delignified wood transparent by removing hemicellulose and exchanging carboxyl‐group counterions, which softens the cell walls. This allows the internal lumens to collapse, making the material highly transparent. The tangential section allows for a more complete collapse of cell lumens, leading to a denser structure and superior ...
