Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2026.Protein fibrils can be synthesized from both conventional and by‐product protein sources, each having distinct advantages. Stabilization through polysaccharides and polyphenols can enhance fibril functional properties, such as gelling, foaming, and emulsification, thus furthering their application in food and non‐food materials.

Light Meets Nature: Cellulose Cluster as a Natural Photoantimicrobial Agent
Small Structures, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.Cellulose derivatives exhibit cluster‐triggered emission, generating singlet oxygen through long‐lived excitonic states without conventional chromophores. This work reveals strong photoantimicrobial activity against Gram‐positive bacteria, transforming cellulose from an inactive excipient into an effective photodynamic agent.

Advances in cholesterol and lipoproteins detection for healthcare: A review
VIEW, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.Cholesterol is one of the main biomarkers related to the development of cardiovascular diseases. Its detection still relies on traditional methods of analysis, such as gas and liquid chromatographies. Detection of free cholesterol in saliva with redox or enzymatic sensors or detection of lipoproteins in blood with aptamer sensors are currently the most
