Electron compensation‐gated nanomotor for immunomodulation and microenvironment remodeling in bacterial pneumonia therapy

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
A nanomotor featuring an “electronic lock” via electron compensation in an Au‐Ag alloy ensures therapeutic precision. Near‐infrared light acts as a key, unlocking on‐demand Ag+ release for synergistic bactericidal action and microenvironment remodeling to potently treat bacterial pneumonia. Abstract Bacterial pneumonia treatment is severely hampered by

Growth Strategy of Circular Startups

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circular startups (CSUs) play a crucial role in the circular transition by developing circular business models (CBMs) that minimise resource use and narrow material and energy loops. However, empirical research on how CBMs shape growth strategies and how ecosystems enable or constrain scaling remains limited.

Supply Chain Innovations for Food Waste and Loss: Systematic Literature Review and Future Research Agenda

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Food waste and loss (FWL) remains a critical challenge across food supply chains (SCs) globally, with approximately one‐third of all food produced for human consumption discarded or lost each year. This study systematically reviews how supply chain innovation (SCI) can mitigate FWL.

Shaping the Protein Transition From the Niche: Firm‐Level Dynamics in Europe's Plant‐Based Alternative Protein Sector

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The agri‐food sector, most notably intensive livestock production, stands as a major driver of climate change, prompting a shift towards plant‐based alternative protein production and consumption. Such protein transition is widely recognised as central to the development of an environmentally sustainable food economy.

Oxidative stress involved in textural changes of sea cucumber Stichopus japonicus body wall during low-temperature treatment

open access: yesInternational Journal of Food Properties, 2018
It is difficult to maintain the high quality of sea cucumber Stichopus japonicus (S. japonicus) during regular thermal processing due to the special physiochemical makeup of S. japonicus body wall (SJBW) that affects its textural properties. Hence, it is

Circular Economy in Food Supply Chains: Comprehending the Paradigm and Redefining Future Research Through a Multidisciplinary Review of Reviews

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The inefficiencies of the global food system necessitate a shift towards a circular economy (CE) in food supply chains (FSCs). While research on CE in FSCs spans multiple disciplines, it often remains siloed within respective disciplinary boundaries, limiting its practical impact.
