Comparative Analysis of Bioreactor Design and Scale‐Up for Cultivated Meat Using Monte Carlo‐Based Timescale Modeling

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cultivated meat offers a sustainable alternative to conventional livestock production but faces significant scale‐up challenges, particularly in bioreactor design for mammalian cell suspension cultures. This study presents a comparative analysis of stirred tank reactors (STR), bubble columns (BC), and airlift reactors (ALR) to assess their ...

Ferritin as a Nanoparticle Scaffold for Plant‐Produced Next‐Generation Subunit Vaccines

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Protein nanoparticles offer an innovative approach to next‐generation subunit vaccine development by displaying antigenic sequences on the nanoparticle surface. Compared to traditional subunit vaccines, protein nanoparticle vaccines often show improved interaction with the immune system due to their particulate size and repetitive epitope ...

Purification of Disassembled Capsid Protein by Hydroxyapatite Chromatography Enhances Virus‐Like Particle Recovery

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Virus‐like particles (VLPs) are a promising modality with extensive applications in prophylactic and therapeutic vaccine design. Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines are one such example where VLP vaccine applications have led to the successful reduction in HPV‐associated diseases, such as cervical cancer.

Ant Diversity of the Xisha Islands: Community Structure, Exotic Species Colonization, and Ecological Functions in a Tropical Coral Archipelago

Biological Diversity, EarlyView.
The first inventory of ants from the Xisha Islands of the South China Sea was compiled, revealing 21 species: 70% native and 30% exotic. Anthropogenic disturbance primarily drove exotic colonization, whereas island area showed weak positive effects on species richness. Most ants were omnivorous, with key mutualistic and seed‐dispersal roles.

From muscle fibres to muscle gears: how dynamic fascicle orientation and shape change impact skeletal muscle function

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Skeletal muscle architectural design strongly affects force‐generating capacity and excursion range, and its functional importance to animal and human movement is well founded. Traditionally, this ‘structure–function relation’ has been inferred from architecture measurements with muscles at rest (from anatomical dissections or medical imaging ...

The influence of circadian variables on ecotoxicology metabolomics

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ecotoxicologists are using metabolomics increasingly to gain insight into toxicological mechanisms and sublethal effects of chemical exposures. Metabolomics offers a sensitive multi‐parameter approach that can detect biochemical responses not obvious using apical and behavioural endpoints.

Biotic modulators of global change effects on plant communities

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding and predicting future plant biodiversity and productivity is critical for prioritizing global change mitigation, conservation, and restoration efforts. One major challenge is that we know remarkably little about how interspecific interactions may modulate the effects of global change factors on diversity and productivity.

Measuring Corporate Alignment With the Circular Economy: a Text‐Based Circularity Index From Mandatory Non‐Financial Disclosures

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transition to a circular economy (CE) has become a strategic priority for firms, yet empirical assessments of corporate circularity remain fragmented and heavily dependent on structured indicators or self‐reported metrics. This paper proposes a novel, text‐based circularity index derived from mandatory non‐financial statements of large ...

Connecting Thoughts and Actions: A Managerial Process Model on Circular Business Model Innovation

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Addressing environmental grand challenges such as resource scarcity requires circular business model innovation (CBMI) that enables firms to efficiently close and slow resource cycles through novel activity systems. Drawing on a grounded theory approach based on 59 in‐depth interviews with top managers from Swiss SMEs, we developed a process ...

Consumer Acceptance of Enabling Agri‐Food Technologies for Sustainable Food Systems: Evidence From Italy

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transition toward more sustainable and innovative agricultural systems increasingly relies on the integration of digital and enabling technologies (KETs). Although the technical and productive aspects of these innovations have been widely investigated, consumer acceptance remains less understood, despite its key role in fostering their ...
