Bioconversion of carotenoids into high‐value crocins using a marine sponge carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 3230-3246, June 2026.
Summary Carotenoids and apocarotenoids are widespread specialized metabolites, yet animals, including sponges, lack the ability to synthesize carotenoids de novo and must obtain them from dietary or microbial sources. The roles of carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs) in marine animals remain largely unexplored. A CCD from the marine sponge Suberites

Functional divergence of LhcSR and PsbS in zeaxanthin‐mediated non‐photochemical quenching

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 3042-3052, June 2026.
Summary To protect photosystem II from excess light, non‐photochemical quenching (NPQ) dissipates excess energy as heat. NPQ relies on trigger proteins, LhcSR in algae and PsbS in vascular plants, and the light‐regulated xanthophyll cycle, which interconverts violaxanthin and zeaxanthin through the opposite activities of violaxanthin de‐epoxidase and ...

Eating Attitudes and Anthropometric Indices of Adult Women in Performance Dance: A Case‐Control Study in Greece

European Eating Disorders Review, Volume 34, Issue 3, Page 743-748, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Dancers are at an increased risk of developing eating disorders and health issues. The aim of this case‐control study was to compare dietary intake, anthropometric indices and eating attitudes of adult professional dancers to their age‐ and sex‐matched non‐dancer females.

Machine Learning Unveils Dietary Antioxidants as Influential Factors for Diabetes‐Cancer Comorbidity: Insights From National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study employs an interpretable machine learning framework to predict diabetes‐cancer comorbidity, with the Random Forest and LightGBM models demonstrating exceptional performance. SHAP value analysis reveals that while advanced age and cardiometabolic dysfunctions serve as primary risk drivers, dietary antioxidants (particularly daidzein and ...

Extraction of Phospholipids From Crude Rapeseed Oil by n‐Hexane/Alcohol System: Effects of Solvent Composition on Extraction Performance and Oil Quality

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Integrated analysis of extraction performance, phospholipid composition, oil quality, and multivariate relationships in green phospholipid recovery from crude rapeseed oil. ABSTRACT Rapeseed oil contains endogenous phospholipids (PLs) and other minor bioactive components, but conventional PL extraction methods commonly rely on chloroform‐based solvent ...

Comparison between fluorometry and microscopy‐based phytoplankton assessments in the Laurentian Great Lakes

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Photosynthetic pigment fluorescence is commonly used in limnology and oceanography as a proxy for phytoplankton biomass. Fluorometry has been used to detect subsurface algal blooms, characterize dynamics of the deep chlorophyll layer, and to provide greater vertical resolution to phytoplankton monitoring.

Enhanced Wind Linked to Ozone Depletion Influences Photoprotective Responses in Antarctic Mosses via Water Stress

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Climate change, including ozone depletion, has altered wind regimes around Antarctica in recent decades, intensifying environmental stress on coastal moss communities. However, the physiological impacts of wind on mosses remain poorly understood. This study explored the potential climatic drivers of wind speed (WS) changes and investigated the

Biochemical System Analysis of Lutein Production by Heterotrophic Chlorella pyrenoidosa in a Fermentor

Food Technology and Biotechnology, 2009
Chlorella is a promising alternative source of lutein, as it can be cultivated heterotrophically with high efficiency. In this study, the carotenoids in Chlorella pyrenoidosa heterotrophically cultivated in a 19-litre fermentor have been analyzed and ...
