Medical students' initial experiences of the dissection room and interaction with body donors: A qualitative study of professional identity formation, educational benefits, and the experience of Pasifika students

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The first experience of medical students in the dissecting room (DR) likely influences professional identity formation (PIF). Sparse data exist exploring how exposure to the DR and body donors without undertaking dissection influences PIF, or how culture may influence this experience.

The lack of legal protections in the United States to prevent commercializing the dead for education and research: Consequences and risks to anatomists

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract A lack of minimum legal standards for body donation programs undermines recent strides by anatomy professionals to promote ethical best practices in the United States (US). In particular, the commercialization of the dead by nontransplant tissue banks poses a risk to the public trust in academic body donation programs.

“Basic human things”: Investigating vehicle residents' continually fractured (information) landscapes

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract This ethnographic study explores vehicle residents' information practices in the United States (US). Vehicle residents are people whose primary means of housing is a vehicle. This work builds on previous research encompassing transitions and fractured (information) landscapes. Using fractured information landscapes as the theoretical framework,

Industrial strategies to minimize glycerol formation in ethanol fermentation by conventional Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Industrial ethanol production faces the challenge of balancing metabolic efficiency with the minimization of byproducts such as glycerol, whose formation is intensified by osmotic, thermal, oxidative, and nutritional stresses. In the literature, two main approaches stand out for modulating its synthesis: the use of genetically modified strains

Sustainable and cost‐effective process design for energy‐self‐sufficient ethyl lactate production from sugar mill feedstocks: a techno‐economic approach

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Bio‐based ethyl lactate (EL) can replace several fossil‐derived products owing to its low toxicity, high solvent functionality, and environmental advantages. This study assesses the techno‐economic viability and greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction potential of producing EL from sugarcane A‐molasses and lignocelluloses in an energy self‐sufficient ...

Low‐dose cannabidiol increases plasma concentrations of amitriptyline: A clinical drug–drug interaction study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Cannabidiol (CBD), the main non‐intoxicating compound from the cannabis plant, is regularly used by patients with chronic pain who also take analgesics. CBD has previously been shown to inhibit CYP‐mediated drug metabolism. This study aimed to characterize the potential pharmacokinetic interaction of CBD with amitriptyline and tramadol ...
