Comparative Evaluation of 5-<i>n</i>-Alkylresorcinol Extraction Conditions from Wheat Bran via Metabolite Profiling: Implications for Antiproliferative Activity by Ronald Marentes-Culma, Ericsson Coy-Barrera

“…This study aimed to compare the efficiency of eight extraction methods—including Soxhlet, ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE), and overnight solvent-assisted maceration (OSAM) protocols—used in the removal of ARs from wheat bran, and to evaluate the association between AR composition and antiproliferative activity. A metabolite profiling approach using HPLC-DAD-MS identified 12 AR homologs differing in side-chain length and functional groups. …”

Wolverines on the Move: A Multi‐Scale Analysis of Forest and Landscape Factors Influencing Wolverine Occurrence in Finland by Pinja‐Emilia Lämsä, Audrey Mercier, Andreas Lindén, Aarne Hovi, Miina Rautiainen

“…Occupied and unoccupied sites were distinguished by landscape fragmentation, tree volume, tree species composition, and distance to clearcuts. Sites were more likely to become occupied when forests were less fragmented and had broadleaved trees, while the probability of occurrence decreased if the total volume of trees was high or fresh clearcuts were in close proximity. …”

Implementation of advanced control with artificial intelligence in anhydrous ethanol production by Marcos Gabriel Lopes da Silva, Davi Soares de Lima, Andréa Selene Embirassú Xavier, Allan Almeida Albuquerque

“…Additionally, artificial intelligence (AI) models—specifically decision tree, random forest, and LightGBM—were developed to control top product composition using easily measurable variables. These models significantly outperformed linear regression, with the decision tree achieving R² = 0.9970, MAE = 4.19 × 10⁻⁷, and RMSE = 2.20 × 10⁻⁶, maintaining ethanol molar fractions above 0.9996 even under dynamic disturbances. …”
