Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The US hemp market is a new and nascent industry that has been devoid of research for about half a century. This study examined the effects of exogenous shock on price at each phase of the value chain—Farm (hemp biomass), and its impact on prices at other phases of the value chain—Intermediary Processor (crude cannabidiol hemp) and Final ...

The Role of Certifications in Improving Household Food Security Among Peruvian Farmers
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Achieving global food security requires sustainable transformations in agri‐food systems. Voluntary Sustainability Standards (VSS) such as Organic and Fairtrade aim to internalize certain social and environmental costs while promoting more equitable value distribution, improved market access, and sustainable production practices.

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.Abstract The development of advanced absorbents for effectively capturing carbon dioxide is crucial in mitigating greenhouse gas emissions. This study introduced a series of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) for CO2 capture and identified the most promising DESs with the stepwise screening method based on their absorption capacity, absorption rate, thermal

Ethane Chlorination Toward Vinyl Chloride Synthesis: Mechanistic and Catalytic Perspectives
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Ethane chlorination is emerging as a promising low‐carbon route to vinyl chloride monomer, yet it remains academically underexplored due to the complexity of radical chemistry. As the first focused Minireview on this topic, it offers forward‐looking mechanistic analysis, unveils catalyst evolution pathways, and defines research priorities to accelerate

Rod‐Like PLGA Microrobots with Enhanced Motion and Biodegradation for Magnetic‐Guided Drug Delivery
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This study presents drug‐loaded Poly (lactic‐co‐glycolic acid) (PLGA) microrobots fabricated from an oil‐in‐water (O/W) emulsion of PLGA, Fe3O4 nanoparticles, and Adriamycin (DOX). They are formed by film‐forming and stretching microrobots, and exhibit motion analyzed via video‐snapshots, speed graphs, and shape changes, advancing targeted for drug ...

Modeling and Characterization of a Self‐Sensing Soft Hydraulic Muscle
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This article presents the self‐sensing soft hydraulic muscle (SSHM), a novel soft actuator capable of simultaneously sensing force and length without external sensors. A comprehensive model accurately predicts SSHM behavior, validated experimentally with minimal errors. Using propylene glycol enhances durability and reduces hysteresis.

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Flowers that present their anthers and stigma in close proximity can achieve precise animal‐mediated pollen transfer, but risk self‐pollination. One evolutionary solution is reciprocal herkogamy. Reciprocity of anther and style positions among different plants (i.e., a genetic dimorphism) is common in distylous plants, but very rare in
