Comment on "A compilation and bioenergetic evaluation of syntrophic microbial growth yields in anaerobic digestion" by Patón, M. and Rodríguez, J. [Water Research 162 (2019), 516-517] [PDF]
Recent efforts have focused on providing a systematic analysis of syntrophic microbial growth yields. These biokinetic parameters are key to developing an accurate mathematical description of the anaerobic digestion process. The agreement between experimentally determined growth yields and those obtained from bioenergetic estimations is therefore of ...

Use of Epilobium parviflorum in the Treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia in Canines. [PDF]
The study assessed Epilobium parviflorum (EP) for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in two dogs. Both were treated with EP extract for 2 months, with follow‐up ultrasounds, urinalysis, blood count, liver and kidney biochemistry, and serum testosterone levels measured on Days 7, 15, 30 and 60.

Ninjurin1 deficiency differentially mitigates colorectal cancer induced by azoxymethane and dextran sulfate sodium in male and female mice. [PDF]
What's New? Ninj1 overexpression in various carcinomas suggests its oncogenic potential, yet its role in inflammation and cancer remains unclear, especially in relation to sex‐based differences. In this colitis‐associated colorectal cancer mouse model, Ninj1 deficiency reduced inflammation and tumor development in both sexes, but with a more ...

Monte Carlo simulation of molecular dynamics for amino acid production from carboxylic acid via C-14 beta-decay [PDF]
To study the chemical origin of life, we investigated the amino acid production probability from radiocarbon (C-14)-containing carboxylic acid via beta-decay using a newly developed Monte Carlo simulator for molecular dynamics calculation. Using the simulation, we calculated the dynamical trajectory of N-14 recoiled via C-14 beta-decay in [3-C-14 ...

Dynamic optimization of volatile fatty acids to enrich biohydrogen production using a deep learning neural network [PDF]
A new strategy was developed to investigate the effect of volatile fatty acids (VFAs) on the efficiency of biogas production with a focus on improving bio-H$_2$. The inoculum used, anaerobic granular sludge obtained from a UASB reactor treating poultry slaughterhouse wastewater, was pretreated with five different pretreatments. The relationship between

Effects of Exercise on Serum Inflammatory Markers and NF-kb, COX-2 mRNA Expression in Prostate of BPH-Induced Mice [PDF]
PURPOSE Benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) is a common finding in older men and a frequent cause of lower urinary tract symptoms. The efficacy of exercise in the management of BPH-related inflammation is not fully understood.
