Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Exploring biofiber properties and their influence on biocomposite tensile properties

Polymer International, EarlyView.
The study measured the physical, flow and chemical properties of 10 biofibers. It characterized the tensile properties of derived biocomposites and linked them using regression models, showing robust predictive performance. Abstract Biofibers serve as effective reinforcements for neat polylactic acid (PLA) in biocomposites, offering an attractive ...

Relationships of Oral Function Tests With Sarcopenia and Frailty in Dental Outpatients

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, Volume 53, Issue 4, Page 843-857, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The relationships between various oral function tests and sarcopenia or frailty remain unclear, particularly in dental outpatients. Objective The present study investigated the interrelationships among various oral function tests and the relationships of each oral function with sarcopenia and frailty in dental outpatients.

Water‐Holding Capacity Regulation of Dietary Fibers in Soybean Residue: From Modification Strategies, to Function Improvement and Food Texture Optimization

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
Soybean residue exhibits poor water holding capacity (WHC) due to high insoluble dietary fiber (>95%). Modification strategies (physical, biological, and chemical) enhance WHC by altering fiber structure/function, enabling optimized food texture and functional food development in meat, bakery, dairy, and other food systems.

The Influence of Grain Crushing and Pore Collapse on the Formation of Faults

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract During an earthquake, slip occurs in a localized shear zone that features a heavily granulated fault core that can be characterized as a shear band. We study the formation of this fault core in a granular rock such as sandstone by developing a model of crushable granular media within the framework of Breakage Mechanics. This model accounts for

Multidisciplinary Analyses of Terrestrial Samples Used to Interpret an Inorganic Origin (Anhydrite:Ce3+) for the 304 and 325‐nm Doublet Fluorescence Detected by the Mars 2020 SHERLOC Instrument at Jezero Crater

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Doublet fluorescence at 304 and 325‐nm under deep ultraviolet (DUV) excitation was detected on Mars at Jezero crater by the Scanning Habitable Environments with Raman and Luminescence for Organics and Chemicals (SHERLOC) instrument onboard the Mars 2020 rover Perseverance.

Effect of Pyrolysis Temperature on Phosphorus Release From Fish Scale Biochar in Wheat Crop

Chemical Engineering &Technology, Volume 49, Issue 2, February 2026.
The results demonstrate that fish scale–derived biochars are effective phosphorus sources with controlled release behavior. Increasing the pyrolysis temperature, particularly to 600°C, enhanced phosphorus availability and promoted diffusion‐controlled release kinetics.

Geochronology of the Whittlesey sedimentary succession, eastern England: The ‘Pompeii’ of the British late Middle Pleistocene to Holocene record

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 2, Page 260-287, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The sedimentary succession at Whittlesey preserves a unique British late Middle Pleistocene to Holocene record back to a time equivalent to at least marine oxygen isotope stage 8 (ca. 250 ka). This study builds on previously published sedimentology, geochronology and palaeoecology results to establish 20 sedimentary facies associations, with ...

Mechanisms of Aqueous Fluid Infiltration and Redistribution in a Lower‐Crustal Pseudotachylyte‐Bearing Fault

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Coseismic fracturing in the strong, dry, and metastable plagioclase‐rich lower‐crust is an effective mechanism for creating pathways for fluids to infiltrate the host rock, kick‐start metamorphism, and potentially lead to rheological weakening.

Assessment of Orofacial Muscle Strength, Masticatory and Swallowing Function in Children Indicated for Orthodontic Treatment—A Preliminary Investigation

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, Volume 53, Issue 2, Page 348-356, February 2026.
Graphical abstract illustrating the differences in facial muscle strength, masticatory function, and swallowing function in children indicated for orthodontic treatment compared to a reference group with no orthodontic treatment needs. ABSTRACT Background It would be beneficial for clinicians to have more tools to assess the treatment needs of children
