The Impact of Sustainability Labelling on Consumers' Evaluation and Choice of Food Products: A Systematic Literature Review

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The last five years of research on sustainability labelling, reported in 175 journal articles, documents its effectiveness in increasing consumer choices of more sustainable food products. Some sustainability labels come out as stronger than others and their impact varies across products, countries, and individual consumers, depending on label

Talk to Me Like a Human: How AI Chatbot Message Tone, Recommendation Type, and Personalization Drive Consumers' Continuance Intention

open access: yesJournal of Consumer Behaviour, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot message tone, fashion product recommendation type, and personalization level interact to shape consumers' continuance intention in online fashion shopping. Building on Construal Level Theory and the Stereotype Content Model, we treat warmth and competence cues as psychological ...

Toad Poisoning in Laos

open access: yesThe American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2007
We describe two patients who developed severe illness after eating the skin and eggs of a toad, probably Bufo melanostictus Schneider, in southeastern Laos. One boy died, and one developed a digoxin toxicity–like syndrome with bradycardia and heart failure but survived.

Captivated by Kinesin

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Few proteins have inspired as much curiosity as kinesin. Since its discovery 40 years ago, kinesin has become one of the best understood molecular machines in biology, yet it continues to reveal new questions about how cells organize and move their contents.

Mosaic activation of the zebrafish hsp70l heat shock promoter: Implications for interpreting transgenes

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The promoters and enhancers of heat shock genes, such as the 1.5‐kb promoter of the zebrafish hsp70l gene, are valuable tools for temporal activation of transgenes. It has been widely purported that heat shock treatments result in ubiquitous expression of hsp70l‐driven transgenes.

Role of SoxE transcription factors in development and disease

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Sox8, Sox9, and Sox10 arose by multiple rounds of genome duplications from a single SoxE gene in ancestral vertebrates. In this review, we will briefly discuss the molecular structure and function of SoxE transcription factors and their evolutionary origin. We will then discuss their expression, function, and developmental disorders.
