Invisible Kitchens, Visible Values: Understanding Consumer Trust and Boundary Formation in Digital Food Experiences

Journal of Consumer Behaviour, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research investigates how consumers establish trust in ghost kitchens, a rapidly growing digital service format that eliminates physical interaction and redefines the boundaries of food consumption. Despite their growing popularity, ghost kitchens present a paradox of trust, as the absence of physical premises and direct interaction ...

A Self‐Enhanced Tandem Catalytic System for Olefin‐to‐Diol Conversion Powered by Single‐Atom Fe Catalysts With In Situ Generated Acid

EcoEnergy, EarlyView.
A single‐atom iron catalyst with well‐defined Fe–N4 sites enables a tandem epoxidation‐hydrolysis process for converting terminal olefins to 1,2‐diols. The in situ‐generated isobutyric acid drives the hydrolysis step, affording broad substrate scope and excellent recyclability.

A New Vista of Opportunity in Diabetes Management: Natural Product‐Based β‐cell Preservation

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Preserving functional β‐cells via natural products offers promising strategy for diabetes treatment. ABSTRACT A defining characteristic of diabetes is β‐cell failure, in which β‐cells cannot modulate insulin secretion to compensate for escalating insulin resistance, pushing forward disease development.

Strategies for Identification and Mitigation of Sanguinarine in Mustard Oil Adulterated by Argemone—A Comprehensive Review

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Sanguinarine, a toxic alkaloid present in argemone, can lead to epidemic dropsy or chronic diseases through DNA intercalation and immune system suppression. Regulatory efforts face challenges due to economic motivations for adulteration as well as technical, social, and infrastructure barriers.
