Polyphenol structures reveal why tea, cocoa and fruit compounds taste so different
A pilot study has developed a new sensory evaluation method that links the chemical structures of polyphenols with their distinct taste properties. Using trained human panelists, researchers showed that different polyphenols produce unique sensory effects, including bitterness, acidity, and astringency. The findings may help improve functional food design and food processing technologies while advancing understanding of how taste-related sensory pathways contribute to digestion, metabolism,...

Sequential multimodal sensory integration drives foraging decisions in leaf-cutting ants: Volatiles, contact cues and phytochemistry
Identifying the sensory cues that enable insects to find host plants, and understanding the neurobiology underlying their selection, provide solid foundations for developing state-of-the-art pest management strategies. Our work was aimed at identifying the main sensory cues attracting the leaf-cutting ant Acromyrmex ambiguus to alternative host plants in commercial willow plantations in the Lower Delta of the Parana River (Argentina), with a focus on native plant species. Eight plant species...

Light-induced quantum friction of carbon nanotubes in water
Abstract Friction slows down moving objects at both macroscopic and microscopic scales1. At the electronic level, quantum friction describes direct transfer of momentum between a liquid and the electrons of a solid2. Owing to its microscopic nature, this phenomenon remains experimentally challenging to capture3.
