DNA-based monitoring of bushmeat trade dynamics and hotspots across western and central Africa

The bushmeat trade in Africa is a largely unregulated activity that drives the unsustainable exploitation of wild terrestrial vertebrates—an issue often coined the “bushmeat crisis”. We build on a four-gene mitochondrial DNA-typing approach to develop an unprecedented reference d...

Tensor‐Train Compression of a Volume Integral Eddy Current Problem in Discontinuous Galerkin

ABSTRACT The paper presents a low‐rank tensor compression strategy based on the tensor‐train (TT) format for the integral operator arising in eddy current problems. Unlike classical matrix compression techniques such as the fast multipole method (FMM) or hierarchical matrices (‐m...

Towards generalizable wet foamability predictions: A dimensional analysis approach incorporating dynamic surface tension and symbolic regression

This study presents an original chemical engineering approach to modelling wet foam formation through mechanical mixing and gas-sparging processes. Situated at the intersection of physico-chemistry, dimensional analysis, chemical engineering, and predictive modelling, this work u...

Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Properties of Natural Compounds—2nd Edition

Plant natural remedies have formed the cornerstone of traditional healthcare, particularly in skincare, since antiquity, spanning Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda, Greco-Roman rituals, and Mediterranean practices [...]

Distributed Phase-Shedding: A Scalable Solution for Automotive Microprocessor Power Supplies

The increasing computing power required by autonomous vehicles imposes stringent requirements on automotive microprocessor power supplies in terms of efficiency, scalability, and fault tolerance. Conventional phase-shedding strategies for multiphase converters rely on centralized...

Physics-Informed Neural Network with Adaptive Loss Weighting for Parameterized Surface Potential Prediction on Polymeric Dielectric Interfaces

Abstract Surface charge accumulation on polymeric dielectrics is widely encountered in electronic packaging, triboelectric energy harvesting, and aerospace insulation, with direct consequences for device performance and insulation reliability. Surface potential provides an access...

Bridging the gap between genomic, phenotypic, and modeling data in picophytoplankton–virus interactions

Abstract We present a comprehensive synthesis of recent developments in methodological approaches to combine experimental and genomic studies of picophytoplankton–virus interactions. This synthesis will not only enhance our understanding of these relationships but also stimulate...

TurboID ‐based proteomic profiling reveals proxitome of the IRT1 metal transporter and new insight into IRT1 endocytosis

Summary Iron Regulated Transporter1 (IRT1) is the major root iron transporter responsible for broad‐spectrum metal absorption in Arabidopsis thaliana root epidermal cells. Non‐iron metal substrates of IRT1 were recently shown to regulate IRT1 cell surface levels by endocytosis an...

Valorization of Wheat Straw Hydrolysate into Succinic Acid by Fermentation with Actinobacillus succinogenes

Succinic acid (SA) production from agro-industrial waste, such as lignocellulosic biomass, has been gaining interest. Traditionally, it is synthesized from petrochemical sources, a process associated with negative environmental impacts. In recent decades, efforts to develop clean...
