Psyllium: A Nutraceutical and Functional Ingredient in Foods.
Annu Rev Food Sci Technol

Psyllium is an excellent natural source of soluble and insoluble dietary fiber. It has been used as a nutraceutical and functional ingredient in foods. Many efforts have been made to understand and improve its physicochemical, biological, and functional properties to promote its food applications.

Waste heat production represents an inevitable consequence of energy conversion as per the laws of thermodynamics. Based on this fact, by using simple theoretical models, we analyze constraints on the habitability of Earth-like terrestrial planets hosting putative technological species and technospheres characterized by persistent exponential growth of energy consumption and waste heat generation. In particular, we quantify the deleterious effects of rising surface temperature on biospheric processes and the eventual loss of liquid water.

Pathways to achieving net zero carbon emissions commonly involve deploying reforestation, afforestation, and bioenergy crops across millions of hectares of land. It is often assumed that by helping to mitigate climate change, these strategies indirectly benefit biodiversity. Here, we modeled the climate and habitat requirements of 14,234 vertebrate species and show that the impact of these strategies on species' habitat area tends not to arise through climate mitigation, but rather through habitat conversion.

Enzymes are attractive as catalysts due to their specificity and biocompatibility; however, their use in industrial and biomedical applications is limited by stability. Here, we present a facile approach for enzyme immobilization within "all-enzyme" hydrogels by forming photochemical covalent cross-links between the enzyme glucose oxidase. We demonstrate that the mechanical properties of the enzyme hydrogel can be tuned with enzyme concentration and the data suggests that the dimeric nature of glucose oxidase results in unusual gel formation behavior which suggests a degree of forced induced dimer dissociation and unfolding.

Mathematical modeling has been utilized to explain biological pattern formation, but the selections of models and parameters have been made empirically. In the present study, we propose a data-driven approach to validate the applicability of mathematical models. Specifically, we developed methods to automatically select the appropriate mathematical models based on the patterns of interest and to estimate the model parameters.
