The Plant‐to‐Plant Circular Strategy: Coupling Photodegradation and Phytoremediation With Plant‐Based Nanomaterials for Plastic Degradation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Plant‐based nanomaterials derived from alfalfa serve as dual‐function catalysts, coupling photodegradation and phytoremediation to degrade polyethylene under UV‐A light and in soil. The nanomaterials work synergistically with alfalfa and soil microbes, achieving efficient plastic breakdown without trophic transfer.

Young children's perspectives of time: New directions for co‐constructing understandings of quality in ECEC

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Children's relationship with time in preschools is an under‐researched area. Young children rarely know how to measure time using a clock, but their experiences of time may contribute to understanding children's well‐being and debates about quality in preschools.

Estimation of generalized soil structure index based on differential spectra of different orders by multivariate assessment

International Soil and Water Conservation Research
Better soil structure promotes extension of plant roots thereby improving plant growth and yield. Differences in soil structure can be determined by changes in the three phases of soil, which in turn affect soil function and fertility levels.

Temporal Decoupling: A New Paradigm of 4D Photo‐Responsive Carbon Dots Films With Modular Regulation of Color and Deformation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates a novel energy regulation strategy using the long‐lived S₁ state as a “kinetic capacitor” to achieve temporally decoupled integration of photoinduced deformation and multicolor fluorescence in naphthalimide‐functionalized carbon dots. This dual‐channel programmable shunting of excited‐state energy establishes a dynamic single‐use

Ultrasonic-assisted coating and UV irradiation as hurdle technology to augment anti-browning and disinfection efficacy on fresh-cut apples

Ultrasonics Sonochemistry
Fresh-cut fruits are prone to quality deterioration from enzymatic browning and microbial contamination. Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation is a conventional method for disinfection and browning inhibition but does not provide prolonged effects post-treatment.

Single‐Cell Transcriptomics and Metabolomics Reveal Glutamate Dehydrogenase as a Central Regulator of Nitrogen Metabolic Remodeling During Alkalinity Adaptation in Crustaceans

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐cell transcriptomics reveals the cellular response of Macrobrachium hainanense to carbonate alkalinity stress. Alkalinity stress impairs branchial ammonia excretion, induces mitochondrial dysfunction, and drives cell‐type‐specific changes in gills and hemocytes.
