Edible Pouch Motors

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Edible robotics is an emerging field that leverages edible materials to construct robotic systems. This study presents a method to create thin, lightweight, yet powerful edible soft actuators, namely edible pouch motors. The successful operation of these edible actuators and grippers renders their potential to advance future developments in edible ...

Modular, Textile‐Based Soft Robotic Grippers for Agricultural Produce Handling

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article introduces textile‐based pneumatic grippers that transform simple textiles into robust bending actuators. Detailed experiments uncover how cut geometry and fabric selection shape performance. Successful handling of fragile agricultural items showcases the potential of textile robotics for safe, scalable automation in food processing and ...

MFPD: A Multiple Fungal Pathogen Detection Pipeline Across Diverse Habitats

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The MFPD pipeline integrates a comprehensive ITS reference database of fungal pathogens, optimized parameters, and algorithms tailored for both full‐length and subregion sequences that balance accuracy and computational efficiency; it enables high‐throughput, species‐level identification from amplicon sequencing data, supporting large‐scale ...

Inhibitory Decay and Supercritical Brain Dynamics During Sleep Deprivation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sleep deprivation progressively shifts human brain dynamics from near‐critical toward supercritical states, as revealed by neuronal avalanche analysis of resting‐state fMRI. These changes track subjective sleep pressure rather than vigilance lapses and show marked network heterogeneity. A circuit model suggests that reduced inhibitory efficacy provides

Thermally Processable, Transparent, Mechanically Tunable and Robust Bioplastics From Wastepaper

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Unlike conventional inefficient or low‐value wastepaper recycling, a directional transformation strategy is employed to convert whole wastepaper into intact bioplastics with tunable mechanical properties in our work. These bioplastics can be processed into flexible bags or rigid containers and exhibit high transparency, water resistance, repairability,

Effect of a novel hydrogel amendment and seedling plugs volume on the quality of ornamental/miniature tomato

open access: yesAdvances in Horticultural Science, 2018
The market for ornamental/miniature plants values aesthetic morphological characteristics, which give harmony to the potted plant. These traits depend on the growing media capacity to maintain quality and plant longevity.

Effect of Organic, Mineral Fertilization and Foliar Spraying with Some Biostimulants on Growth, Yield and Chemical Composition of Pea [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Plant Production, 2016
Two field experiments were carried out during 2013/2014 and 2014/2015 seasons to study the effect of organic fertilization (farmyard manure “FYM” at the rate of 20 t/fed and humic acid “HA” at the rate of 20 kg/fed), NPK fertilization (50 % of the ...

“Vegetables as Food” [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1941
Drs. Booth, Mapson and Moore1 feel that in a recent article in Nature2 I exaggerated when I made “an allusion, divorced from its context, to cooked cabbage as having only 17 per cent of the vitamin C of the fresh cabbage”. What I wrote was as follows. “A cabbage bought at the market may perhaps be expected to contain 60 per cent of its original vitamin

Robust Amorphous MOF‐Based Aerogels Digital Biosensor for Sensitive Detection of Organophosphate Pesticides

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We report a robust aerogel digital biosensor by integrating an enzyme‐mediated amorphous MOF within an aerogel matrix for on‐site pesticide detection. The enzyme‐mediated assembly strategy enables in situ tailoring of MOF into a porous amorphous structure, achieving both high stability and activity.
