LSTMs and Deep Residual Networks for Carbohydrate and Bolus Recommendations in Type 1 Diabetes Management [PDF]
To avoid serious diabetic complications, people with type 1 diabetes must keep their blood glucose levels (BGLs) as close to normal as possible. Insulin dosages and carbohydrate consumption are important considerations in managing BGLs. Since the 1960s, models have been developed to forecast blood glucose levels based on the history of BGLs, insulin ...

Engineering of Cyclodextrin Product Specificity and pH Optima of the Thermostable Cyclodextrin Glycosyltransferase from Thermoanaerobacterium thermosulfurigenes EM1 [PDF]
The product specificity and pH optimum of the thermostable cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) from Thermoanaerobacterium thermosulfurigenes EM1 was engineered using a combination of x-ray crystallography and site-directed mutagenesis.

Martini 3 Coarse-Grained Force Field for Carbohydrates [PDF]
The Martini 3 force field is a full re-parametrization of the Martini coarse-grained model for biomolecular simulations. Due to the improved interaction balance it allows for more accurate description of condensed phase systems. In the present work we develop a consistent strategy to parametrize carbohydrate molecules accurately within the framework of

Synthesis, Structure and Antimicrobial Property of Green Composites from Cellulose, Wool, Hair and Chicken Feather [PDF]
Novel composites between cellulose (CEL) and keratin (KER) from three different sources (wool, hair and chicken feather) were successfully synthesized in a simple one-step process in which butylmethylimidazolium chloride (BMIm+Cl−), an ionic liquid, was ...

Konformationsanalyse von Pyranosen mit 13C-Resonanz
The utility of 13C-NMR spectroscopy as a tool for conformational analysis in carbohydrate chemistry is described. The 13C atoms of axially oriented methoxy groups of methylglycosides absorb 1.5 to 2 ppm towards higher field than the equatorially ...

Defining the recognition elements of Lewis Y-reactive antibodies. [PDF]
Antibody response to carbohydrate antigens is often independent of T cells and the process of affinity/specificity improvement is considered strictly dependent on the germinal centers. Antibodies induced during a T cell-independent type 2 (TI-2) response
