Hydrological Alterations and Soil Microbial Responses Under Prolonged Irrigation and Salinity Stress

The Mirzachol Oasis is one of the most important agroecological regions in Uzbekistan and has been subject to six decades of intensified irrigation, resulting in significant hydrological and soil changes. The impact on microbial communities below the surface is less well studied than its impact on the surface, but bo...

Pigmented cereals as functional food systems: Linking phytochemistry, processing, and health.

This review combines the chemistry, processing and health-related aspects of anthocyanins in a single structure-processing function paradigm, limited to wheat, rice and maize, and evaluates the in vitro to human evidence in a logical framework. These compounds exhibit cereal-specific structural signatures: cyanidin-3-g...

Advancement in legume processing: exploring germination and fermentation techniques for enhanced nutritional and functional properties

Functional 4D food printing: engineering smart, stimuli-responsive edible systems for personalized nutrition

Four-dimensional (4D) food printing extends additive manufacturing by integrating stimuli-responsive edible materials that enable programmed transformations in food structure, texture, color, and nutrient release over time. This review critically evaluates the material-structure–function relationships governing these d...

Petroselinic acid: a rare fatty acid with emerging roles in nutrition, green chemistry and bio-industry

Petroselinic acid (PeA), a rare monounsaturated fatty acid (C18:1Δ6), has garnered scientific interest due to its unique cis-Δ6 double bond configuration and limited botanical distribution. Predominantly found in the Apiaceae family (e.g., parsley, coriander, dill), PeA exhibits distinct physicochemical traits such as...
