Dietary changes expose consumers to risks from larvae in seafood, leading to parasitic diseases and allergies. is recognized by EFSA as a significant hazard, with potential oncogenic implications. Diagnostic advancements, like the Basophil Activation Test (BAT), enhance sensitivity and accuracy in identifying sensitization, complementing traditional IgE tests.

The complex crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1, with one formula unit per cell (Z = 1 and Z' = 1/2). It consists of a mononuclear unit with the Co ion on an inversion centre coordinated by two 2,6-diamino-7H-purin-1-ium cations, two 4,4'-oxydibenzoate anions (in a nonbridging κO-monodentate coordination mode, which is less common for the anion in its Co complexes) and two water molecules, defining an octahedral environment around the metal atom.

Background: The antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory activity of honey and its ability to accelerate wound healing make it an attractive option in surgical wound care. We performed a randomized clinical trial to compare the efficacy of honey dressing with conventional dressing regarding the aesthetic outcome.
Patients And Methods: Bilateral symmetric incisions in randomly selected plastic surgical patients were randomly covered postoperatively with conventional dressing and honey dressing for five days.
Three isotypic rare earth complexes, catena-poly[[aquabis(but-2-enoato-κ(2)O,O')yttrium(III)]-bis(μ-but-2-enoato)-κ(3)O,O':O;κ(3)O:O,O'-[aquabis(but-2-enoato-κ(2)O,O')yttrium(III)]-μ-4,4'-(ethane-1,2-diyl)dipyridine-κ(2)N:N'], [Y2(C4H5O2)6(C12H12N2)(H2O)2], the gadolinium(III) analogue, [Gd2(C4H5O2)6(C12H12N2)(H2O)2], and the gadolinium(III) analogue with a 4,4'-(ethene-1,2-diyl)dipyridine bridging ligand, [Gd2(C4H5O2)6(C12H10N2)(H2O)2], are one-dimensional coordination polymers made up of centrosymmetric dinuclear [M(but-2-enoato)3(H2O)]2 units (M = rare earth), further bridged by centrosymmetric 4,4'-(ethane-1,2-diyl)dipyridine or 4,4'-(ethene-1,2-diyl)dipyridine spacers into sets of chains parallel to the [201̄] direction. There are intra-chain and inter-chain hydrogen bonds in the structures, the former providing cohesion of the linear arrays and the latter promoting the formation of broad planes parallel to (010).
