Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) production from aerobic-mixed cultures [PDF]

, 2006
This study assessed the optimal conditions for PHA production using saponified fatty acid, derived from sunflower oil (SO). A fed-batch reactor was used to produce PHA.

Status epilepticus: Updates on mechanisms and treatments

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) consists of prolonged, self‐sustaining seizures and is a common neurological emergency that causes respiratory compromise and neuronal injury. Without prompt treatment, the seizures can become resistant to benzodiazepines, leading to the progressive evolution of established, refractory, and super‐refractory SE.

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

From bodyweight to biomarkers: Season‐associated metabolic, endocrine and haematological shifts in breeding stallions

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Breeding stallions are subjected to sustained seasonal metabolic, endocrine, and immune demands requiring systemic energy engagement. Prospective longitudinal data in the same individuals are limited. Objectives To screen adaptive responses of breeding stallions of clinical relevance through longitudinal characterisation of temporal

Synthesis Of Biodegradable Star-Shaped Polymers Using Bio-Based Polyols Via Ring-Opening Polymerization Of Β-Butyrolactone With Amido-Oxazolinate Zinc Catalysts [PDF]

, 2019
A new series of star-shaped and highly branched poly(β-hydroxybutyrates) (PHBs) with a distinct structure was synthesized by ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of β-butyrolactone (BBL) with amido-oxazolinate zinc catalysts.

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) production from saponified sunflower oil in mixed cultures under aerobic condition [PDF]

, 2008
A laboratory study was conducted to assess the optimal conditions for polyhyroxyalkanoates (PHA) production using saponified sunflower oil (SO). The system was operated under continuous sequential phase of growth and accumulation conditions.

Multi‐omics reveals gastrointestinal metabolic disorder‐induced diarrhea in postpartum dairy cows

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Nutritional diarrhea is a pervasive, costly challenge in dairy production. Using integrated metagenomic and metabolomic profiling, we identified coordinated microbial and metabolic alterations across the rumen, hindgut, and serum. In the rumen, enrichment of Prevotella sp.

Pediatric hereditary angioedema presenting as recurrent episodic abdominal pain and vomiting: Challenges in diagnosis and management

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Recurrent episodic abdominal pain and vomiting, with symptom‐free intervals between attacks, represent common and often challenging presentations in children, typically leading to extensive workups without a clear etiology, as standard diagnostic algorithms fail to include rare systemic conditions. We present the challenging diagnostic odyssey

Production and Characterization of Melt-Spun Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate)/Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) Blend Monofilaments

ACS Omega
We investigated the melt-spinning potential of a poly(3-hydroxybutyrate)/poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) blend using a piston spinning machine with two different spinneret diameters (0.2 and 0.5 mm). Results from the differential scanning calorimetry, dynamic mechanical thermal analysis, and tensile testing showed distinct filament ...

Stepwise administration of de novo ketogenic parenteral nutrition for refractory epilepsy during prolonged bowel rest following duodenal perforation

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Ketogenic diet is an established therapy for pediatric patients with intractable epilepsy. By shifting energy metabolism from glucose to fat, the diet increases the production of ketone bodies, which alters neuronal excitability and modulates neurotransmitter signaling, thereby raising the seizure threshold.
