Aims: In previous studies, it was demonstrated that co-culturing Clostridium pasteurianum and Geobacter sulfurreducens triggers a metabolic shift in the former during glycerol fermentation. This shift, attributed to interspecies electron transfer and the exchange of other molecules, enhances the production of 1,3-propanediol at the expense of the butanol pathway. The aim of this investigation is to examine the impact of fumarate, a soluble compound usually used as an electron acceptor for G.

Article Synopsis
  • * It analyzed data from 60 children over four treatment phases, noting the percentage of time their glucose levels stayed in the target range while considering missed boluses.
  • * Results indicate that HCL therapy consistently improved glycemic control compared to SAP, even when meal insulin was missed, suggesting HCL may be the better choice for managing diabetes in children.

Article Synopsis
  • The study analyzed the effects of 2.45 GHz microwaves on insects, noting that standing waves effectively converted to heat while traveling waves did not, indicating minimal thermal concerns for daily microwave exposure.
  • Genotoxicity and changes in behavior were observed in insects exposed to traveling wave irradiation, suggesting potential non-thermal risks.
  • Electron spin resonance tests showed that female fruit flies had higher levels of certain paramagnetic substances than males, correlating with the behavioral differences recorded in the experiments.

Objective: The effect of advanced carbohydrate counting (ACC) on metabolic and quality of life (QOL) outcomes is uncertain in children with type 1 diabetes. Our aim was to determine whether ACC would improve HbA1c and QOL scores as compared with standard nutrition in this population.

Methods: We randomized 87 patients using pump and rapid-acting analogs in a 1 year randomized multicenter study (age 9.

Recent advances in microbial electrochemical technologies have revealed the existence of numerous and highly diverse microorganisms able to exchange electrons with electrodes. This diversity could reflect the capacity of microorganisms to release and/or retrieve electrons with each other in natural environments. So far, this interspecies electron transfer has been studied with a special focus on syntrophy and was successfully demonstrated for several couples of species.
