Untreated Rosehip Powder/Poly(Lactic Acid)/Poly(3‐Hydroxybutyrate‐Co‐4‐Hydroxybutyrate) Electrospun Mats for Wound Dressing Applications

Biopolymers, Volume 117, Issue 4, July 2026.
The addition of untreated rosehip powder (RoHi) to PLA/P(3HB‐co‐4HB) blend affected the fiber diameter, wettability, and liquid adsorption capacity of the obtained electrospun nanofibers. Moreover, RoHi‐added nanofibers were found to be biocompatible, promote fibroblast migration and wound closure, and exhibit significant antioxidant activity.

Dietary Phytochemical Index and Its Relationship With Diminished Ovarian Reserve: Evidence From a Case–Control Study

Endocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 4, July 2026.
A higher dietary phytochemical index was associated with lower odds of diminished ovarian reserve, highlighting the potential role of phytochemical‐rich diets in supporting ovarian function and reproductive health. ABSTRACT Introduction Diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) represents a significant contributor to female infertility and adverse reproductive ...

Evaluation of Enzyme Inhibition and Kinetic Profiles of Origanum Essential Oils on Metabolic and Central Nervous System Targets

Natural Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 3, July 2026.
The essential oils of three Origanum species were chemically characterized and evaluated for their antioxidant and enzyme inhibitory activities. The different compositions confer selective bioactivities: O. vulgare exhibits good antioxidant and α‐glucosidase inhibitory activity, O. majorana shows promising tyrosinase inhibition, and O.
