Sour cherry (Prunus cerasus L.) stones are the major byproduct of the cherry industry and the efficient management of this biowaste can lead to achieving the food processing sustainability aimed at by the modern food industry. Despite its significant content of lipids, the valorization of cherry stone …

To study the ways in which compounds can induce adverse effects, toxicologists have been constructing Adverse Outcome Pathways (AOPs). An AOP can be considered as a pragmatic tool to capture and visualize mechanisms underlying different types of toxicity inflicted by any kind of stressor, and describes …

IMPORTANCE People with a severe mental illness (SMI) have a life expectancy reduced by 10 to 20 years compared with the general population, primarily attributable to cardiometabolic disorders. Lifestyle interventions for people with SMI can improve health and reduce cardiometabolic risk. OBJECTIVE To …

Clonal haematopoiesis of intermediate potential (CHIP) driven by somatic mutations in DNMT3A and TET2 has been recently recognized as a new risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The haematopoietic clones with mutations in these genes are frequently found in myeloid malignancies and according …

Light is a form of energy produced by a luminous object which occurs as electromagnetic radiation and is closely related to other forms like radio waves, microwaves, gamma rays, infrared, UV and X radiation. The different kinds of radiation can be classified by using wavelengths. Only a small section …

SMPD4 is a neutral sphingomyelinase that plays an important role in sphingolipid metabolism. Sphingolipids are a family of lipid molecules abundantly present in the brain where they play an important role in the brain development and function due to their essential cellular role as structural components …

BACKGROUND: Existing research shows that a high consumption of animal products contributes to climate change. To not further exhaust natural resources, a diet containing more plant-based foods is necessary. The problem with plant-based foods is their protein quality. This review aims to study of the …

Soybean and fishmeal are obtained in large quantities to produce animal feed. This puts an immense stress on today’s environment. Insect larvae are seen as a possible replacement of soybean and fishmeal but there is still a large knowledge gap preventing large scale production. Many species of insect …

Due to the depletion of fossil fuel resources and concern about increasing atmospheric CO2 levels, the production of microbial oil as source for energy and chemicals is considered as a sustainable alternative. A promising candidate strain for the production of microbial oil is the oleaginous yeast Schwanniomyces …

Fingerprints are widely used in forensic science for individualization purposes. However, not every fingermark found at a crime scene is suitable for comparison, for instance due to distortion of ridge detail, or when the reference fingerprint is not in the database. To still retrieve information from …
