Article Synopsis
- Advancements in computing power and storage have led to improved data analysis in air quality, enhancing public health protection, although accurate pollutant predictions are still needed.
- This study proposes a new hybrid deep learning model, EFS-GA-LSTM, for predicting multistep hourly PM concentrations using historical data and optimized through modified genetic algorithms and feature selection techniques.
- The EFS-GA-LSTM model outperforms other optimization methods in forecasting tasks, showing better accuracy metrics like root mean square error and correlation coefficient for 3-hour predictions.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the volatile compounds in L. essential oil (PC-Eo) and assesses its antioxidant and antimicrobial properties using a variety of advanced techniques.
- Gas chromatography-mass spectrophotometry (GC-MS) identified major components, such as apiol and myristicin, while antioxidant activities were measured through five different assays, demonstrating a strong antioxidant profile.
- The antimicrobial tests showed significant antibacterial and antifungal effects against various strains, with PC-Eo achieving favorable results in the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) tests, alongside promising pharmacokinetic characteristics.
The microbiota of aquatic animals is heavily influenced by their environment, offering a potential source for biotechnologically relevant microorganisms. In this investigation, bacterial strains from fish and fish products were investigated to determine their antimicrobial effects against fish and food pathogens. Twelve strains, including five Lactococcus, two Enterococcus hirae, two Enterococcus mundtii, and three Latilactobacillus sakei were selected as producing bacteriocin-like substances with antimicrobial properties that were active against a broad spectrum of bacteria, such as Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

- The study looked at how caregivers of autistic children in Morocco have different needs based on whether they live in cities or the countryside.
- It found that urban children often get more help and education compared to rural children, even though their skills are similar.
- Caregivers in both areas shared some needs but faced different challenges, like rural caregivers struggling with their children’s independence and urban caregivers dealing with communication issues.
Taurine Partially Improves Abnormal Anxiety in Taurine-Deficient Mice.
Adv Exp Med Biol
September 2019
Taurine is abundant in various tissues including the brain, muscle, heart, spleen, liver and kidney with various physiological functions. Since taurine is produced by cysteine sulfinic acid decarboxylase (CSAD) in the liver and kidney, taurine-deficient mice without CSAD have been investigated for abnormal physiological functions such as retinal development, immune, pancreatic and liver function. In this study, the behavioral effects and abnormal brain development caused by low taurine in the developing brain were examined.
