How could cannabinoids help keep strawberries fresher for longer? Researchers at the Universidad de Córdoba, Spain, evaluated CBD-based edible coatings as a natural preservation strategy for strawberries. Using their Texture Analyser, they measured fruit firmness, expressed as Peak Positive Force (PPF), to assess resistance to compression and softening during storage. The coating reduced surface decay and weight loss while helping maintain firmness for up to six days under refrigeration. The findings highlight the potential of plant-derived coatings to improve strawberry quality and extend shelf life.

Have you opened a bag of icing sugar to find a solid lump instead of a fine powder, and had to crush it before it would do anything useful?

That is caking: particles bonding together under moisture or pressure until the material behaves like a solid rather than a powder, needing force just to break it down before it can flow or sift at all. It happens in cupboards and on production lines alike.

Our Powder Flow Analyser reproduces this failure under controlled humidity and load, so it can be fixed at the formulation or packaging stage, long before a customer reaches for a spoon.

Could science give us the pleasure of jam without the sugar - and with added protein? Researchers at Silpakorn University, Thailand, have been developing whey protein isolate hydrogels as a structural alternative to sugar in fruit preserves. The team used their Texture Analyser to measure gel firmness across formulations with varying protein concentrations (1, 3, and 5% w/v) and calcium chloride crosslinking levels, using a Spherical Probe to assess how each combination affected structural strength and water retention. The optimised hydrogel was incorporated into a sugar-free rose jam, successfully providing jam-like texture and spreadability without any added sugar or synthetic texturisers - while boosting the nutritional profile with protein fortification. A promising step towards a new generation of health-oriented fruit preserves. Read more: https://doi.org/10.1051/bioconf/202623902001 | See which instrument they used: https://bit.ly/2K3wlqI

Could a coating inspired by the silkworm's own world hold the key to longer-lasting table grapes? Researchers at Bursa Technical University and Bursa Uludağ University in Turkey developed edible coatings from silk fibroin enriched with mulberry leaf extract, combining two materials that come from the same biological system. They used their Texture Analyser to measure berry firmness by pe*******on force throughout cold storage. The coated grapes retained significantly higher firmness alongside improved bioactive compound retention, demonstrating that bio-derived silk-protein coatings offer a credible natural alternative to synthetic postharvest treatments.

Consistent powder flow is critical to additive manufacturing success. Poor flowability can drive uneven spreading, variable layer density and defects that affect part quality, repeatability and throughput. This article explores why powder behaviour matters, how to improve layer consistency, and the measurable impact on production reliability. Ideal for teams focused on process control and scalable AM. https://bit.ly/4d9z5NN
