Abstract: Wheat was one of the most widely cultivated and economically significant staple crops globally. Wheat flour was a primary ingredient in various foods, with its quality commonly described by parameters such as moisture, protein, starch, ash, gluten content, and gelatinization characteristics. Understanding these parameters was essential for assessing wheat flour's processing suitability and selecting the appropriate wheat flour type for specific food formulations. This study leverages hyperspectral imaging (HSI) technology to predict the gelatinization characteristics of wheat flour, using peak viscosity as a key indicator.........

Abstract: The objective of this study is to evaluate the health safety of fish from the Congo River in its section located in Lualaba Province, in Democratic Republic of Congo. In fact, for several decades, the Congo River has been receiving water polluted with mining waste from the Luilu river, into which the Luilu hydrometallurgical plant discharges its wastes, both solid and liquid. Solid releases contain 3% Cu and 0, 8 % Co while liquid releases contain 1, 5 g/L Cu and 1,0 g/L Co. It also receives, through the Butungu river, water polluted by untreated mine waste from UCK factory of Kolwezi town. The waters of the Butungu river contain Co and Se. All these tailings found in Katanga contain trace metal elements......

Title | : | Serotonin (5-HT) Modulation Model Of Motor Neuron Firing Patterns |
Country | : | |
Authors | : | Meléndez-Gallardo, J. |
: | 10.9790/ 264X-1006011521 |
Abstract: Background: This study presents a computational model of a motoneuron incorporating the 5-HT1a serotonin receptor and a presynaptic neuron that releases serotonin (5-HT) upon stimulation. The model aims to elucidate the role of serotonin in motor function and its impact on motoneuron excitability. Three key aspects are analyzed: the relationship between 5-HT1a receptor density and firing frequency, the effect of varying 5-HT concentrations on motoneuron....

Abstract: Glycosylation is the most prevalent and varied covalent modification of recombinant therapeutic proteins. A wide spectrum of roles has been attributed to glycoproteins, reflecting this diversity.N-acetylgalactosamine-4-sulfatase (NAG4S) is a recombinant hu-man enzyme used as replacement enzyme therapy for the treatment of adults and children with mucopolysaccharidosis VI, a rare genetic disorder caused by a deficiency of a lysosomal enzyme. The presence of phosphorylated glycans in NAG4S contributes to the complexity in molecular characterization, attributed to its heterogeneity. This challenge was addressed by comprehensive methods based on mass spectrom-etry detailing the......

Abstract: As we enter an era where our dependence on sustainable energy is becoming higher than ever, finding solutions that will outlast and outperform fossil fuels is quickly becoming imperative. Even though many alternative energy sources are gaining popularity, we still heavily rely on fossil fuels due to their high quantity and easy access. If we cannot bring our greenhouse gas and carbon emission levels down, it is unlikely that we will be able to reduce or prevent the irreversible damage that climate change has already caused. One of the answers lies in one of the newest biofuel sources: algae biomass.

Abstract: The need for novel antimicrobial remedies is highlighted by the rising incidence of drug-resistant microorganisms. Medicinal plants have the potential to provide new avenues for fighting pathogenic microorganisms by supplying novel bioactive chemicals. This review looks at the modes of action and chemical variety of chemicals derived from plants that have antibacterial characteristics. It also discusses the inconsistent results of antimicrobial susceptibility tests and the difficulties in optimizing extraction methods, which differ depending on the species of plant. Though more investigation.....

Abstract: Tomato Leaf Curl New Delhi Virus (ToLCNDV), a bipartite begomovirus belonging to the Geminiviridae family, poses a severe threat to cucurbit production worldwide, resulting in significant economic losses. Its ability to infect a broad range of host plants and rapidly adapt to changing environments has exacerbated the problem. The advent of molecular tools has provided promising strategies for managing ToLCNDV infections. CRISPR/Cas systems have emerged as powerful genome-editing tools, enabling precise targeting of viral genes, such as the replication......
