Sorption Isotherm Curves in Dry Extruded Pet Foods: Evaluation and Comparison With the Drying Curve

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sorption isotherms evaluate water exchange between food and environments with different water activities (aw), providing valuable information on physical changes and susceptibility of deterioration due to lipid oxidation and microbial growth.

Effects of Asaia spp. on the development, size and associated microbiomes of two mosquito species of medical importance

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Addition of Asaia species to the rearing water of mosquito larvae can affect the structure of the larval microbiome, although these bacteria do not persist to the pupal stage. Asaia inoculation can increase the adult size of males of two mosquito species. The impact of Asaia inoculation on development rate and female size depended on bacterial and host

“Is This Edible Anyway?” The Impact of Culture on the Evolution (and Devolution) of Mushroom Knowledge

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Mushrooms are a ubiquitous and essential component in our biological environment and have been of interest to humans around the globe for millennia. Knowledge about mushrooms represents a prime example of cumulative culture, one of the key processes in human evolution.

Viability, Storage Stability, Release Kinetics, and Sensory Attributes of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum ATCC 8014 in Synergistic Cryoprotectant‐Mediated Puree Blend

Applied Research, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2026.
Synergistic sodium alginate and glycerol protected Lactiplantibacillus plantarum in frozen pumpkin‐carrot purée, maintaining probiotic viability above functional levels for 120 days. The formulation enabled controlled intestinal release, enhanced storage stability, and improved sensory acceptance, supporting its potential as a plant‐based functional ...

Grassland forage legumes and drought mitigation – sheep wool application improved soil water availability and enhanced drought–stress responses

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 13, Page 8073-8084, October 2026.
Abstract Background Sheep wool may reduce drought stress in grasslands when used as a soil amendment. Two experiments were conducted to explore if: (i) water absorbed by wool would be biologically ‘active’ and therefore available to plants, using a novel method of measuring water activity (a w); and, (ii) adding wool to compost would delay water stress
