Diel net CO2 exchange of carnivorous Pinguicula is consistent with low‐level CAM photosynthesis

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In carnivorous butterworts (Pinguicula), CO2 uptake occurs primarily in the light via C3 photosynthesis, yet low‐level CAM photosynthesis, including net CO2 dark fixation, significantly improves the carbon balance of plants, especially under water‐deficit conditions.

BerryBox: An affordable computer vision system for postharvest phenotyping of cranberry and other small fruits

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Fruit size, shape, color, and percent fruit rot are important quality traits for breeding cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait.). Image analysis can be used to measure these traits, but affordable hardware for standardized image capture and integrated user‐friendly software pipelines are lacking.

Unleashing the power of visible‐near infrared spectroscopy: predicting Golden Delicious apple enzyme activity

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 12, Page 7503-7511, September 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Enzymatic browning is a significant reaction in fruits that affects their color, appearance, and quality. The quality of apples, as a perishable product, is mainly influenced by the activity of two browning‐related enzymes, polyphenol oxidase (PPO) and peroxidase (POD), during storage.

CONDUCTIVITY TITRATION OF GELATIN SOLUTIONS WITH ACIDS [PDF]

Journal of General Physiology, 1923
Titrations have been made, by the conductivity method, of gelatin solutions with hydrochloric and sulphuric acids. The results indicate an end-point at about 8.6 cc. of N/10 acid per gm. of gelatin, or a combining weight of about 1,160. These results are in fair agreement with those previously obtained by the hydrogen electrode method. Better agreement

Chemometric‐Driven Spectral Fingerprinting for Non‐Destructive Quality Assessment of Mangoes

Phytochemicals in Food and Medicine, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
Visible–NIR spectroscopy using a compact open‐source spectrophotometer successfully tracked mango ripening by capturing wavelength‐specific changes linked to acidity, sugars, pigments, and DA index, enabling accurate non‐destructive prediction of ripening stages during ambient storage.

The Mycobacterium tuberculosis Rv0132c Gene Product Mtb‐FGD2 Can Act as an F420‐Dependent Glucose Dehydrogenase

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 9, Page 1610-1627, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The role of the cell envelope‐associated Rv0132c/FGD2 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis has long been a subject of debate. Importantly, FGD2 is found only in pathogenic mycobacteria, making it a potential drug target. While some suggest it functions as a glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase, others propose it acts instead as an F420‐dependent ...
