Daidai Flower Essential Oil as a Multifunctional Natural Agent: Chemical Profile, Antimicrobial Activity, Preliminary Insecticidal Potential, and Improved Microbiological Quality of Fresh Arugula During Refrigerated Storage

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This study evaluates the potential of daidai flower essential oil (DFEO) (Citrus aurantium var. daidai) as a natural preservative for fresh leafy vegetables. The chemical composition of DFEO was determined by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC–MS), revealing a neroli‐type profile dominated by linalool (42.8%), limonene (19.9%

Enhancing the Skatole Degradation Capacity of Lactococcus lactis NZ9000 Through the Heterologous Expression of the Ska Enzyme from Acinetobacter piscicola p38

Fermentation
Skatole is a harmful, odorous pollutant in livestock manure. Skatole-degrading strains are mostly harmful Gram-negative bacteria, whereas safe Gram-positive strains demonstrate poor degradation performance, limiting bioremediation applications.

First Tetraploa Genome and Multi‐Omics Analysis Reveal Key Plant‐Microbe‐Soil Interactions for Salt Tolerance and Yield Improvement of Wheat

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 8, Page 4748-4765, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Salinity is a major threat to global agricultural productivity of staple crops such as wheat. Although microbial‐based solutions hold promise for alleviating salinity stress, practical implementation is hindered by insufficient mechanistic characterization of bioinoculants and their interactions with plants.

Combined Effect of Dietary Protein, Ractopamine, and Immunocastration on Boar Taint Compounds, and Using Testicle Parameters as an Indicator of Success

Foods, 2020
This study investigates the combined effect of immunocastration, dietary protein level (low, medium or high) and ractopamine hydrochloride supplementation (0 or 10 mg/kg) on the adipose concentrations of androstenone, skatole and indole in pigs, and ...

Eating Quality of Pork from Entire Male Pigs after Dietary Supplementation with Hydrolysable Tannins

Animals, 2023
Boar taint is an unpleasant odour and flavour released during heat treatment of pork from uncastrated male pigs. The two main compounds responsible for boar taint are androstenone and skatole. Androstenone is a steroid hormone formed in the testis during

The Role of Gut Microbiota in Liver Regeneration After Partial Hepatectomy: New Evidence From Animal and Human Studies

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 14, 31 July 2026.
Partial hepatectomy (PH) reshapes gut microbiota composition, resulting in the release of microbial metabolites and components, including short chain fatty acids (SCFAs)/β‐hydroxybutyric acid (BHB), bacterial DNA and extracellular vesicles (EVs), bile acids (deoxycholic acid, DCA), and aminobenzoate degradation products.

Concentrations of Boar Taint Compounds Are Weakly Associated with Sexual Behavior of Young Boars

Animals, 2022
Strategies to control boar taint (BT) in meat relies on the reduction of skatole, indole, and androstenone concentration. This might have unfavorable effects on the libido of breeding boars.

Characterization of peat, limnic, and mineral horizons in Eastern Canada Histosols

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract North American populations rely on a supply of fresh produce from drained and cultivated Histosols. However, peat thickness decreases over time due to many soil degradation mechanisms, gradually giving way to limnic and mineral soil materials in the vadose zone, generally viewed as less fertile and affecting soil chemical properties. More soil

Enzymatic Basis for the Oxidative Branch of Aromatic Amino Acid Fermentation Leading to p‐cresol Formation

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 34, 19 June 2026.
In anaerobic bacteria, tyrosine serves as an electron donor in the oxidative Stickland fermentation branch, generating p‐hydroxyphenylacetate, ATP and reduced ferredoxin for decarboxylation into p‐cresol. ABSTRACT The phenolic metabolite p‐cresol is a byproduct of tyrosine fermentation by certain strictly anaerobic bacteria, including the human gut ...
