A new branch of mammalian vitamin B6 metabolism: AKR1C‐mediated conversion of pyridoxal to pyridoxine and 4‐pyridoxolactone

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Pyridoxal 5′‐phosphate (PLP) homeostasis relies on salvage enzymes, yet key metabolic branches remain undefined. We identify AKR1C isozymes as previously undescribed contributors that convert pyridoxal into pyridoxine or 4‐pyridoxolactone through reductase and dehydrogenase activities.

Integration of Blockchain and AI Knowledge Management for Contamination Risk Prediction in Food Logistics

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
An integrated blockchain–AI framework is proposed for proactive contamination risk prediction in food logistics. FSMA Rule 204 traceability records and IoT cold‐chain sensor data are combined with physics‐informed machine learning and federated learning to generate early contamination warnings while preserving data privacy.

Cytosolic entry of Shiga-like toxin A chain from the yeast endoplasmic reticulum requires catalytically active Hrd1p [PDF]

, 2012
Background Escherichia coli Shiga-like toxin 1 normally traffics to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in sensitive mammalian cells from where the catalytic A chain (SLTxA1) dislocates to the cytosol to inactivate ribosomes.

Isolation of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli harboring variant Shiga toxin genes from seafood [PDF]

Veterinary World, 2018
Background and Aim: Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are important pathogens of global significance. STEC are responsible for numerous food-borne outbreaks worldwide and their presence in food is a potential health hazard.

Membrane Perturbation and Nutrient Transport Dysregulation Are Conserved Targets of Thyme Essential Oil Against Shiga Toxin‐Producing Escherichia coli on Pea Sprouts

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Vegetable sprouts are high‐risk carriers of Shiga toxin‐producing Escherichia coli (STEC), with the emerging “big six” STEC serogroups (e.g., O26, O45, O103, O111, O121, and O145) posing growing threats. Thyme essential oil (EO) is a promising natural sanitizer; however, its effects against different STEC strains remain unclear.

Food Safety and Nutritional Aspects of Plant‐Based Dairy and Meat Alternatives: A Review

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
Plant‐based dairy and meat alternatives (PBDA and PBMA) offer sustainability benefits but also introduce chemical and microbiological hazards to the diet. Key concerns include emerging mycotoxins, heavy metals, process contaminants, and heat‐resistant spore‐forming bacteria.
