An Economical Bioprocess for Lipopeptide Production From Bacillus subtilis

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
The lipopeptide (LP) production potential of Bacillus isolates was evaluated against phytopathogenic fungi, with B. subtilis 4‐Ka‐22 identified as the top‐performing strain. Optimization of the production medium—comprising molasses, soybean meal, CaCl2, and glycerol—resulted in a 13.4‐fold increase in cell growth and over 99% cost reduction compared to

The pollination ecology and mouthpart morphology of a pollen‐feeding fly Incurviseta cf. maculifrons (Diptera: Lauxaniidae) in the Australian Alpine

Physiological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 214-225, June 2026.
The Lauxaniid fly Incurviseta cf. maculifrons (Malloch, 1925) is a locally abundant but poorly understood flower visitor in the Australian Alpine. We describe the flower visitation, pollen transport, pollen diet and mouthpart morphology of I. cf. maculifrons using field observations, pollen analyses and scanning electron microscopy. I. cf.

Evaluation of in vitro toxicity of common phytochemicals included in weight loss supplements using 1H NMR spectroscopy

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 5, Page 906-920, May 2026.
We investigated the toxicity of 12 active compounds commonly found in herbal weight loss supplements (WLS) using human liver and colon cell models. Epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate was the only compound showing significant toxicity. Metabolic profiling revealed protein degradation, disrupted energy and lipid metabolism suggesting that the inclusion of EGCG ...

Dietary Overlap of Sympatric Polyphagous Alpine Grasshoppers Includes Invasive Plant Species

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
The diets of three sympatric grasshopper species were compared using mandible morphological analysis, microhistological examination, and DNA metabarcoding of gut contents. Although mandible morphology differed across species and sexes, dietary divergence was not evident.

Noni (Morinda citrifolia L.) Fermented Juice Inhibits Tumor Progression of Breast Cancer Angiogenesis Through Suppressing NF‐κB Signaling

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 3, May 2026.
Noni fermented juice (NFJ) suppresses breast cancer progression by inhibiting angiogenesis via the Ikkβ/NF‐κB/VEGF pathway. This study demonstrates the potent antitumor effects of NFJ through the inhibition on the function of endothelial cells, identifying it as a safe therapeutic agent for breast cancer treatment. ABSTRACT Angiogenesis plays a crucial

Glomalin production in Atlantic Forest: Effects of soil properties and plant families

Soil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Glomalin, a glycoprotein produced by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), contributes to soil aggregation, carbon sequestration, and nutrient cycling. We present the first comprehensive assessment of environmental factors associated with glomalin availability, measured as easily extractable (easily extractable glomalin‐related soil protein [EE ...
