Molecular Chaperone Networks in Plants: Maintaining Proteostasis and Enhancing Stress Resilience for Crop Improvement

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Molecular chaperones play a central role in the plant proteostasis machinery by aiding the folding of nascent proteins, preventing aggregation, and repairing or degrading damaged proteins. These functions are especially essential during abiotic and biotic stress, which can destabilise cellular proteins and disrupt metabolic homoeostasis.

Hydraulic energy generation for RO (reverse osmosis) from PRO (pressure retarded osmosis)

, 2020
Although reverse osmosis (RO) is currently the most energy efficient, widely used, desalination technology, it still requires a great deal of energy to create the high pressure necessary to overcome the osmotic pressure of seawater.

Role of Water in Electrochemical Urea Oxidation Revealed by Mechanistic Insight in MeCN–H2O Mixed Solvents

ChemElectroChem, Volume 13, Issue 17, 1 September 2026.
Impact of water contents on electrochemical urea oxidation reaction in acetonitrile‐water mixed solvents has been argued. NMR spectroscopic analysis clarified hydrogen bonding between urea and water molecules; product analysis revealed that product distribution changed in accordance with water contents from N2 as a main product at a lower H2O content ...

Theoretical Model of Chemomechanical Self‐Oscillation in a Two‐Enzyme Core–Shell Hydrogel With pH‐Gated Microcapsules

ChemSystemsChem, Volume 8, Issue 5, September 2026.
A closed chemo‐mechanical feedback system is constructed using a GOx/urease core–shell hydrogel with pH‐responsive microcapsules. Proton generation triggers urea release, activating urease and restoring pH, resulting in autonomous swelling–deswelling oscillations.

A review of numerical methods for flow and transport modeling in the vadose zone

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
Abstract Accurate modeling of subsurface flow and transport processes in the vadose zone, governed by the Richards equation and advection‐dispersion equation, respectively, poses major numerical challenges due to the strong nonlinearity of the governing partial differential equations, spatial heterogeneity and anisotropy of the media parameters, and ...
