Automating Sustainability: How Climate Action Unlocks the ESG Potential of Industrial Robotics

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The convergence of Industry 4.0 and global sustainability goals presents a critical paradox: while automation drives efficiency, its net impact on comprehensive environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance remains contested. This study investigates the relationship between industrial robot and country‐level ESG performance across 63

Comparison of Free and Bound Benzoic Acid Naturally Occurring in Vaccinium and Prunus Fruits by Ultrasound‐Assisted and Conventional Extraction Methods

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Ultrasound‐assisted extraction (UAE) recovered 16%–41% more benzoic acid from Vaccinium and Prunus fruits than conventional shaking extraction (CSE), highlighting the importance of extraction method when estimating total releasable benzoic acid for analytical and food‐safety applications.

Chicken‐linked multidrug‐resistant Campylobacter jejuni infections among Chinese children

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Campylobacter is a leading cause of pediatric diarrhea, but its genomic epidemiology and antimicrobial resistance in China remain poorly defined. We conducted genomic surveillance of 3492 children with diarrhea in two pediatric hospitals in Zhejiang Province in 2017, 2018, and 2021, combining culture, whole‐genome sequencing, and source‐attribution ...
