Antimicrobial Activity of Functionalized Micellar Structures with Bioactive Substances from Mango Peels

Chemical Engineering Transactions
Micellar structures from medicinal mushrooms are self-growing, fibrous, polymeric structures that can be successfully functionalized with various bioactive substances. Moreover, micellar structures can successfully mimic the extracellular matrix of human

Living in the Mycelial World

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This manuscript documents a systematic ethnomycological analysis of ethnographic archives. Focusing on texts describing human–fungi interactions, I conduct a global, cross‐cultural review of mushroom use, covering 193 societies worldwide. The study reveals diverse mushroom‐related cultural practices, emphasizing the significance of fungi ...

Cognitive Symbionts. Expanding the Scope of Cognitive Science With Fungi

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract It has been argued that fungi have cognitive capacities, and even conscious experiences. While these arguments risk ushering in unproductive disputes about how words like “mind,” “cognitive,” “sentient,” and “conscious” should be used, paying close attention to key properties of fungal life can also be uncontroversially productive for ...

Avoid Confusion! Does Survival Processing Shape the Spontaneous Use of Learning Strategies for Distinguishing Edible and Poisonous Mushroom Twins?

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Hunter‐gatherers faced the survival threat of confusing edible mushrooms with their poisonous twins, imposing selection pressure on those who failed to detect subtle visual differences. Grounded in the ancestral priorities framework, which posits that the human mind is adapted to handle prehistoric challenges, we investigated whether humans ...

Conjugated Linoleic Acid‐Enriched Fermented Dairy Modulates Microbiota and Metabolites to Alleviate MASLD: Insights From Multi‐Omics and Causal Mediation Analysis

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 5, September 2026.
In a 120‐day randomized trial, CLA‐enriched fermented dairy remodeled the gut microbiota and rewired host metabolic pathways in patients with MASLD. These changes were accompanied by reductions in ALT, total cholesterol, creatinine, and hs‐CRP, supporting a microbiota‐mediated dietary strategy for metabolic and liver health.

Quality‐driven reformulation of Plantago ovata enriched non‐fermented beef salami

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 12, Page 7245-7256, September 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Plantago ovata (psyllium) is a hydrocolloid additive that is used widely in foods; however, meat applications of this bioactive ingredient are limited. This study evaluated the effects of 0% to 5% Plantago husk on non‐fermented beef salami during 60 days of storage. Proximate composition, physicochemical properties, texture profile,
