Investigating Anthropogenic and Social Influences on Diet of Semi‐Urban Vervet Monkeys Using DNA Metabarcoding

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
We used eDNA metabarcoding of faecal samples to quantify the dietary composition of two vervet monkey populations in a semi‐urban environment in South Africa over a 4‐month period, and compared these results with visual observations. We found that both methods yielded similar results, but eDNA metabarcoding revealed a greater diversity of consumed taxa.

Eggshell‐Based Biochar for Superior Adsorption of Crystal Violet Dye and Fluoride From Wastewater

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 21, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT Present study investigates the efficiency of eggshell biochar as a low‐cost and ecofriendly adsorbent for the simultaneous removal of fluoride ions and crystal violet (CV) dye from wastewater. The eggshell waste was pyrolyzed to produce biochar, which was thoroughly characterized and subsequently employed for contaminant adsorption.

The Role of Campus as an Urban Multiuse Protected Area in Bird Nocturnal Roosting Habitat Function

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Campus green spaces are essential for providing critical nocturnal habitats, playing a key role in supporting urban bird species in fragmented environments. Seasonal variations significantly influence nocturnal bird roosting site selection, with birds adapting their roosting patterns to changing environmental conditions throughout the year.

Lignanes from the Brazilian Melia azedarach, and their activity in Rhodnius prolixus (Hemiptera, Reduviidae)

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1995
A study of the phagoinhibitor and anti-moulting activities of the Brazilian Melia azedarach, collected in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, allowed the isolation of four lignanes identified as pinoresinol, bis-epi-pinoresinol, the hemicetal and the ...

Biosorption of Heavy Metal Cadmium From Aqua Medium Using Moringa Oleifera as Nature‐Based Solution

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 180-195, January 2026.
The abstract explains the use of plant components of Moringa oleifera, such as seeds and leaves, for the biosorption of cadmium metal and the effect of the different variables, including pH, temperature, particle size, biomass dose, initial metal concentration, and contact time, on the adsorption process.

Breeding ecology of the common myna Acridotheres tristis: rural nestlings exhibit enhanced growth compared to urban conspecifics

open access: yesJournal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Urbanization alters ecological conditions, yet its impacts on avian reproduction are not fully understood. In many bird species, nestlings growing up in cities tend to have slower growth rates and poorer body conditions than those in rural areas. Using nest boxes, we compared the breeding ecology and nestling growth of the common myna Acridotheres ...

Bioengineering Techniques for Controlling Riverbank Erosion in Rivers Originating From the Chure Region of Western Nepal

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Soil Science, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Bioengineering plays a vital role in soil conservation and stabilization, particularly in controlling erosion along riverbanks originating from the Chure (Siwalik) range. These rivers are seasonal, with little to no surface water during the dry season but experiencing unexpectedly powerful floods during the monsoon period.
