‘Too Close to Eat?’ Exploring Consumer Responses to Edible Packaging Through the Lens of Food Neophobia and Construal Level Theory

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rapid growth of packaging waste has recently intensified the search for sustainable alternatives. Edible packaging, developed from biodegradable materials safe for consumption, represents a promising innovation that combines environmental responsibility with food preservation.

Ecolabels as Instruments for Biodiversity Governance in Agri‐Food Systems: A Comparative Assessment of EU Certification Schemes

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biodiversity underpins ecosystem functioning and the provision of ecosystem services, yet it continues to decline due to intensive agriculture, pollution, habitat loss and climate change. Although ecolabels are increasingly used to communicate sustainability attributes and influence consumer choices, their role in addressing biodiversity ...

Protein–Anthocyanin Interactions in Food Systems: A Reaction‐Network Perspective on Equilibria, Kinetics, and Degradation Pathways

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
Protein–anthocyanin interactions are reinterpreted beyond binding affinity through a reaction‐network perspective. Distinct protein classes modulate anthocyanin behavior through equilibrium shifts, matrix‐driven protection, self‐assembly, or covalent conjugation.

Native Cherimoya Trees with Commercial Potential from Southern Ecuador

Crops
The cherimoya is a plant resource of high genetic and economic value. However, in Ecuador, it remains poorly documented, particularly under the restrictive orographic and climatic conditions of the Andean region. The lack of information limits the use of

Perspectives in biomedicine: Superfoods and antioxidant power classification

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The market value of natural food antioxidants will double to 8 billion USD by 2033, driven by a global consumer demand for ‘clean label’ products and proactive wellness solutions. However, the industrial application and health labelling (commercial brands) of these compounds remain severely constrained by inconsistent analytical methods.

The Influence of Drosophila Spire and Myosin V During Mid‐Oogenesis Is Independent of Their Direct Interaction

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cooperativity between cytoskeletal proteins is crucial for spatiotemporal coordination in biological processes, like oogenesis. In mammalian and Drosophila oogenesis, proper assembly and function of actin networks require coordination between actin assembly factors Spire and formins, as well as actin‐associated proteins like myosins and Rab ...

Global distribution of avian plumage coloration and patterning: the relative influence of climate, ecology, and sexual selection

Ecography, EarlyView.
Animal coloration exhibits substantial biogeographic variation, reflecting complex adaptations to both abiotic and biotic environments. Although the evolutionary mechanisms underlying avian plumage coloration have been widely studied, geographic variation in plumage patterning has received far less attention.

Nanofiber PVA‐Based Membranes Incorporating Functionalized Spanish Broom Derivatives for Sustainable Water Purification

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This study investigates Spanish broom (Spartium junceum) as a renewable source for electrospun composite membranes in sustainable water purification. MCC and biochar were functionalized with eco‐friendly precursors and nanomaterials (i.e., HNT, β‐CDs) to develop hybrid PVA nanofiber composites.

Fluorescence Behavior of Water‐Soluble Porphyrins Immobilized on LTA Zeolite and Its Chlorogenic Acid Polyphenol Sensing in Coffee Wastewater

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
During coffee bean and cherry washing, contaminants are released into water, making this process a major source of water pollution. Chlorogenic acid can be efficiently detected using hybrid zeolite–porphyrin materials by measuring fluorescence quenching, achieving detection limits lower than current regulatory thresholds.
