LsFAMeT and LsJHAMT coordinate JH biosynthesis to regulate fecundity in Laodelphax striatellus
The small brown planthopper (SBPH), Laodelphax striatellus, can trigger large‐scale outbreaks when encountering suitable habitats during migration due to their strong reproductive ability. This study investigated the role of juvenile hormone (JH) in regulating SBPH reproduction.

Effect of Ultrasonic-Freeze-Thaw Pretreatment on the Drying Characteristics of Purple Cabbage Crisps [PDF]
Vacuum freeze-dried purple-cabbage crisps suffer from long drying time and poor quality. In response to these problems, this study investigated the effects of ultrasonic, freeze-thaw and combined ultrasonic and freeze-thaw pretreatment on the drying ...

Development of automated analytical capability for the early detection of diabetes mellitus [PDF]
The total profile of volatile metabolites in urine of patients with diabetes mellitus was studied. Because of the drastic abnormalities in the metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins connected with diabetes it was expected that apart from ...

Modular microporous hydrogels formed from microgel beads with orthogonal thermo-chemical responsivity: Microfluidic fabrication and characterization. [PDF]
Despite the significant advances in designing injectable bulk hydrogels, the inability to control the pore interconnectivity and decoupling it from the matrix stiffness has tremendously limited the applicability of stiff, flowable hydrogels for 3D ...

We performed 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolite profiling for three sympatric lizard species—Teratoscincus roborowskii, Phrynocephalus axillaris, and Eremias roborowskii—and compared their goblet cell and enzyme activities in the digestive tract. Our study suggests that the dietary niche may promote divergence or convergence of microbiota across host ...

Remote functionalization by tandem radical chain reactions [PDF]
Normal radical relay chlorination of cholestan-3α-ol directed by an attached m-iodobenzoate ester group affords a 9α-chloro steroid, but when the same reaction is conducted in the presence of an excess of CBr4 the product is a 9α-bromo steroid ...

Repeated paclitaxel exposure causes long‐lasting nociceptor hyperexcitability and axonal retraction in adult sensory neurons. Using a long‐term primary nociceptor culture, we show that hyperexcitability is mediated by sequential upregulation of NaV1.8, TRPV1, TRPA1, and TRPM8 channels.

Integration of Steam with Allyl-isothiocyanate for Soil Disinfestation
Steam has long been used to disinfest greenhouse soils. However, there is increasing interest in expanding the use of steam for in-field soil disinfestation as an alternative to chemical fumigants. Previous studies demonstrated that allyl-isothiocyanate (
