Review on Recent Advances and Novel Approaches in Milling and Mashing
ABSTRACT Brewing begins with milling of malt or grain to expose the starchy endosperm. The degree of milling affects the surface of the starch granules, which influences gelatinization and the action of enzymes, especially that of β‐amylase. Excessive comminution can lead to lautering problems and undesirable leaching of substances.

Specificity of Induction of Glycopeptide Antibiotic Resistance in the Producing Actinomycetes
Glycopeptide antibiotics are drugs of last resort for treating severe infections caused by Gram-positive pathogens. It is widely believed that glycopeptide-resistance determinants (van genes) are ultimately derived from the producing actinomycetes.

Peptide‐Based Biomaterials as a Promising Tool for Cancer Radiotherapy
This review provides a systematic overview of peptide‐based biomaterials in tumor radiotherapy, covering their roles as both radiosensitizers and radiopharmaceuticals. Peptide‐based radiosensitizers are generally divided into three categories: peptides as direct radiosensitizers, peptides as carriers of radiosensitizers, and targeted‐peptide‐modified ...

PSMA‐PET – Prostate Cancer Imaging in the Modern Era
ABSTRACT The management of prostate cancer relies on accurate staging. Prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is a transmembrane glycoprotein highly expressed in prostate tissues, particularly prostate cancer. PSMA positron emission tomography (PSMA‐PET) is an emerging imaging modality that has recently established roles in prostate cancer imaging ...
