Robust Bio‐Textiles Via Mycelium‐Cellulose Interface Engineering

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 12, 9 February 2026.
This work introduces a new class of sustainable textiles by growing mycelium, the root‐like structure of fungi, into cellulose‐based fabrics. This semi‐interpenetrating mycelium‐cellulose fiber network combines the strength and breathability of natural fibers with the water‐resistant and adhesive properties of mycelium, resulting in a robust, scalable,

Photocatalytic Degradation of PFOA with Porous Lanthanoid Perovskites Nano Catalyst

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, Volume 98, Issue 1-2, Page 7-17, February 2026.
Photocatalytic degradation of PFOA was studied using nickel‐ and lanthanide‐doped perovskites under UV–VIS irradiation. Catalyst characterization confirmed successful doping, with Ni/NdMnO3 showing the highest photocatalytic efficiency. Degradation occurred via C–C bond cleavage, forming transformation products PFHpA and PFHxA.

Biological soil crusts cause subcritical water repellency in a sand dune ecosystem located along a rainfall gradient in the NW Negev desert, Israel

Journal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2016
The biological soil crusts (BSCs) in the NW Negev cause local water redistribution by increasing surface runoff. The effects of pore clogging and swelling of organic and inorganic crust components were intensively investigated in earlier studies. However,

Runoff at the micro-plot and slope scale following wildfire, central Portugal [PDF]

, 2010
Through their effects on soil properties and vegetation/litter cover, wildfires can strongly enhance overland flow generation and accelerate soil erosion [1] and, thereby, negatively affect land-use sustainability as well as downstream aquatic and flood ...

Systemic Toxicity of L‐Mimosine in Rabbits: A Non‐Rodent Model for Safety Assessment

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 2, Page 639-651, February 2026.
ABSTRACT L‐mimosine is a non‐protein amino acid primarily found in the Mimosoideae subfamily, with high concentrations in Leucaena leucocephala and Mimosa pudica. These plants are widely used in both human and animal nutrition, as well as in phytotherapeutic applications. While the toxic effects of L‐mimosine have been extensively studied in ruminants,

Economic analysis of using exclusion netting for spotted‐wing drosophila (Drosophila suzukii) management in organic blueberry production systems

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 2, Page 1302-1318, February 2026.
This study compares the economic performance of exclusion netting and organic pesticides for managing spotted wing drosophila (Drosophila suzukii). Results highlight the trade‐offs in revenue and cost, providing insights into sustainable pest management strategies that balance economic viability and effectiveness for small fruit growers.
