Targeting of Gut Microbiota by Bioactive Peptides for the Improvement of Metabolic Diseases: A Review

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 3, May 2026.
Bioactive peptides (BPs) derived from dietary proteins modulate the gut microbiotametabolism axis by reshaping microbial composition and regulating key metabolites, including short‐chain fatty acids. BPs also enhance intestinal barrier integrity and immune homeostasis, thereby reducing inflammation.

Bone Targeting Peptide–Calcium Coordination Complexes for the Treatment of Osteoporosis

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Current calcium supplement strategies focus on bone‐targeted delivery to reduce bone loss or enhance bone formation. However, peptide–calcium complexes generally lack clear cell selectivity. This study demonstrated that pea peptides (PP), which were rich in aspartic acid (Asp) and glutamic acid (Glu) residues, had the potential to regulate ...

An autonomous and economical benthic incubation chamber for measuring dissolved oxygen fluxes in shallow, low‐flow environments

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Benthic incubation chambers enclose a known volume of water overlying a known area to measure water chemistry changes and are typically used to quantify the metabolic activity of benthic organisms or communities. Here we present an economical benthic incubation chamber for shallow, low‐flow environments, built using off‐the‐shelf components ...

Of Titans and Terraria: Exploring and Conceptualising Philanthropic Foundations Through the Lens of Metaphors

Journal of Philanthropy, Volume 31, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Addressing ongoing calls for a more robust understanding of philanthropic foundations, this paper uses metaphor analysis to map and analyse analogical metaphors on foundations—metaphors that make a direct comparison between philanthropic foundations and another domain—put forward in academic and non‐academic discourse.

Rapidly declining seagrass meadows in Brazil: Findings from satellite imagery and local knowledge

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1155-1171, May 2026.
Abstract Due to the limitations of individual monitoring approaches, integrating social perceptions with multiple advanced technologies provides a new opportunity to gain a comprehensive understanding of ecosystem degradation. We combined historical aerial mapping, satellite imagery, semi‐structured interviews with local stakeholders, and a bilingual ...

Dietary Moringa oleifera Leaves Enhance Biochemical Parameters Resulting in Increase in Egg Production of Layers

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
The incorporation of 1% Moringa oleifera leaves in layer‐type diet resulted in an increase in blood calcium, triglyceride, and egg production, whereas 3% inclusion increased egg weight but decreased triglyceride level. The enhanced egg production observed confirms Moringa oleifera as a natural feed additive for boosting commercial egg production ...

Optimizing Cassava Starch Residue Inclusion in Broiler Diets: Balancing Growth Performance, Liver Health and Gut Microbial Dynamics

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
Moderate inclusion (20–30%) of cassava starch residue in broiler diets improved gut morphology and reduced E. coli counts with minimal adverse effects, while higher levels impaired growth and liver health. The findings highlight CSR's potential as a partial maize replacement, but caution is needed at elevated inclusion rates.
