Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles for Food Applications: From Synthesis and Functional Properties to Safety and Sustainability

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 4, July 2026.
Green and conventional synthesis routes produce ZnO nanoparticles with tunable physicochemical properties for food applications, ZnO‐NPs enhance antimicrobial activity, UV protection, and food preservation through ROS generation and ZN2+ release. However, particle dissolution, migration, cytotoxicity, and environmental concerns highlight the need for ...

Dataset of Microstructural and Dynamic Mechanical Properties of Compacted Loess Modified by Calcium Oxalate Crystals: Implications for Geotechnical Engineering in Loess Regions

Geoscience Data Journal, Volume 13, Issue 3, July 2026.
Dynamic torsional shear tests and SEM/PCAS analysis were combined to characterize calcium oxalate crystal‐modified compacted loess. The dataset connects OA concentration, damping‐ratio behaviour, pore‐structure evolution and Pearson correlations, supporting micro–macro interpretation of chemically modified loess.

Sensitivity of Large‐Scale Hydrological Predictions to Precipitation Phase Partitioning Methods Under a Changing Climate

Hydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 7, July 2026.
Future warming shifts precipitation from snow to rain across the Saskatchewan River Basin, reducing snow water equivalent and advancing snowmelt timing. Differences among precipitation phase‐partitioning methods propagate from snowpack accumulation to runoff magnitude and timing, producing earlier spring flows and higher peak discharge.

The Neuroprotective Effect of a Waste Byproduct Obtained From Pomegranate (Punica granatum)

Phytotherapy Research, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 4588-4610, July 2026.
The Effect of a Waste Byproduct Obtained From Pomegranate on Neurodegeneration. ABSTRACT Pomegranate is an exceptional fruit that can have several beneficial effects on human health. The peel of pomegranate, a waste product, should be recovered as it still contains valuable constituents, including phenolic compounds, minerals and fibre. The recovery of

Assessing unfrozen water content using capacitance sensors in frozen soils: A new physics‐based conversion curve

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract One of the most widely used techniques to measure the unfrozen water content of cryotic soils is to monitor their apparent dielectric permittivity. Paired with an empirical calibration equation or a dielectric mixing model, this measurement, εeff$\varepsilon _{\text{eff}}$, gives an estimate of unfrozen water content in soils.

Spatial and vertical distribution of redox‐sensitive elements and their controlling factors in deep soils under contrasting land cover in the Gulf Coastal Plains

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Redox processes in soil governs key biogeochemical cycles and influence carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus dynamics. However, their role in deep vadose zone soils remains poorly understood, particularly in variably saturated environments with heterogeneous hydroclimatic, landscape position, and land use conditions.

Mechanical Stabilization of Unsaturated Clay Soil

, 2018
—A clay soil classified as A-7-6 and CH soil according to AASHTO and unified soil classification system respectively, was stabilized using A-3 soil (AASHTO soil classification system). The clay soil was replaced with 0%, 10%, 20%, to 100% A-3 soil, compacted at both British Standard Light (BSL) and British Standard Heavy (BSH) compaction energy levels ...

A new experimental setup for the determination of drying soil–water characteristic curve and coefficient of permeability using the continuous evaporation method and osmotic tensiometers

Soils and Foundations
Soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) and coefficient of permeability (k) are amongst the most crucial soil properties in unsaturated soil mechanics for soil moisture conservation.

Archaeal Tetraether Lipids as Tracers for Past Marine Environmental Change

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Archaea are single‐celled microorganisms that are abundant in marine environments and play a key role in the carbon and nitrogen cycles. Archaea can biosynthesize a wide variety of isoprenoid membrane lipids, including isoprenoid glycerol dibiphytanyl glycerol tetraethers (isoGDGTs).

Horizontal Gene Transfer and Genome Rearrangements Shape Bacterial Adaptation for Bioremediation

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 7, July 2026.
Exposure to xenobiotics triggers genome evolution and horizontal gene transfer (HGT), driving the acquisition of novel catabolic functions. These genomic adaptations provide a competitive fitness advantage that reshapes microbial community structure and enhances biodegradation impact.
