Vitamin K content of cheese, yoghurt and meat products in Australia [PDF]
Food Chem. 397:133772 (2022), 2022Vitamin K is vital for normal blood coagulation, and may influence bone, neurological and vascular health. Data on the vitamin K content of Australian foods are limited, preventing estimation of vitamin K intakes in the Australian population. We measured phylloquinone (PK) and menaquinone (MK) -4 to -10 in cheese, yoghurt and meat products (48 ...

Prebiotic Vitamin B$_3$ Synthesis in Carbonaceous Planetesimals [PDF]
ChemPlusChem 2023, e202300508, 2023Aqueous chemistry within carbonaceous planetesimals is promising for synthesizing prebiotic organic matter essential to all life. Meteorites derived from these planetesimals delivered these life building blocks to the early Earth, potentially facilitating the origins of life.

Improving cold atmospheric pressure plasma efficacy on breast cancer cells control-ability and mortality by using vitamin C and static magnetic field [PDF]
, 2023Since the last decades, there have been numerous reports about the interaction of magnetic field (MF) and cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) with the biological systems, separately. In this manuscript, we have investigated the combined effect of CAP with the static magnetic field (SMF) as an effective method for cancer cells treatment.

Modeling Two First Hydrostatic Core Candidates Barnard 1b-N and 1b-S [PDF]
, 2023A first hydrostatic core (FHC) is proposed to form after the initial collapse of a prestellar core, as a seed of a Class 0 protostar. FHCs are difficult to observe because they are small, compact, embedded, and short lived. In this work, we explored the physical properties of two well-known FHC candidates, B1-bN and B1-bS, by comparing interferometric ...

Vaccination rates modulate the correlation between country latitude and covid-19 surge date arising this autumn 2021 [PDF]
arXiv, 2021A clear linear correlation of covid-19 surge date with country latitude was observed last autumn 2020, but not with temperature, nor with humidity, pointing the seasonal vitamin D status decline as a contributor factor. Well vaccinated European countries are this autumn 2021 repeating explosive surges.

Vitamin B1 (thiamine) and dementia [PDF]
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2016The earliest and perhaps best example of an interaction between nutrition and dementia is related to thiamine (vitamin B1). Throughout the last century, research showed that thiamine deficiency is associated with neurological problems, including cognitive deficits and encephalopathy. Multiple similarities exist between classical thiamine deficiency and

Vitamin K content of Australian-grown horticultural commodities [PDF]
Food Chem. 452:139382 (2024)Vitamin K is emerging as a multi-function vitamin that plays a role in bone, brain and vascular health. Vitamin K composition data remain limited globally and Australia has lacked nationally representative data for vitamin K1 (phylloquinone, PK) in horticultural commodities.

The stability of 3 transmembrane and 4 transmembrane human vitamin K epoxide reductase models [PDF]
, 20163 transmembrane and 4 transmembrane helices models are suggested for the human vitamin K epoxide reductase (VKOR). In this study, we investigate the stability of the human 3 transmembrane/4 transmembrane VKOR models employing a coarse-grained normal mode analysis and molecular dynamics simulation.
