Greenhouse vegetable production is often associated with the excessive use of nitrogen fertilizers and a high rate of nitrate accumulation. We evaluated the uptake, translocation, and accumulation of nitrate in chard and spinach under greenhouse conditions with optimal fertilization. The results revealed low levels of nitrate in the leachates and substrates (chard ˃ spinach).

- Aging research increasingly focuses on memory impairment and the role of mitochondrial dysfunction, which is linked to age-related changes and overall health.
- In a study, two different diets—one high in saturated fat (Cocoa diet) and another high in unsaturated fat (South Beach diet)—were tested on mice to assess their impacts on oxidative stress, mitochondrial function, and memory.
- Surprisingly, while the Cocoa diet seemed to reduce oxidative stress without harming memory, the South Beach diet caused increased oxidative damage and impaired cognitive abilities, illustrating that diets considered healthy can have negative effects on aging and memory in younger animals.
Unlabelled: The diagnosis of blast cell presence in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in acute leukemias (AL) is made using techniques such as flow cytometry (FCM) and conventional cytology (CC). This study aims to evaluate CSF blast cell presence frequency in LA using both techniques (CC and FCM) in our center.
Methods: We analyzed three hundred and eight CSF samples belonging to 175 patients, 57% male, with a median age of 46 years (1-70 years) were analyzed.
Unlabelled: Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) involvement in B cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas is a poor prognostic sign and diagnosis is made using techniques such as flow cytometry (FCM) and conventional cytology (CC).
Aim: To evaluate the frequency of CSF involvement in B-NHL by both techniques in a public hospital.
Material And Methods: 97 CSF samples were analyzed in tubes with cell preservative belonging to 70 patients, 71% male, median age 56 years (18-85 years), with a diagnosis of B-NHL and risk of infiltration according to medical criteria.
Controlling the microorganisms involved in alcoholic fermentation during wine production can be achieved by adding a small quantity of spontaneously fermenting must to freshly crushed grapes, a technique known as (PdC). This method not only serves as an inoculation starter but also enhances the microbial footprint unique to each wine region. Recent studies have confirmed that wines inoculated with PdC exhibit efficient fermentation kinetics comparable to those inoculated with commercial strains of .
