Article Synopsis
- Human breast milk (HBM) is the best nutrition for infants, helping prevent infections and chronic diseases by positively influencing their gut microbiota.
- The composition of beneficial microbes in HBM is varied and influenced by factors like gestational age, delivery method, and maternal lifestyle choices such as diet and stress.
- Research highlights the need for better understanding of maternal lifestyle effects on HBM microbiota to develop strategies for improving infant gut health.
To evaluate the applicability of amebocyte lysate (LAL) assay for endotoxin determination in lipid compounding liposomal nanoformulations. Spiked cholesterol, hydrogenated soy phosphatidylcholine and 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-[amino(polyethylene glycol)-2000] (DSPE-PEG 2000) samples with endotoxins, simulating contaminated samples or in-process contamination were analyzed by chromogenic LAL assay. Recovery of spiked endotoxins was achieved from DSPE-PEG 2000 suspended in water, whereas recovery was not achieved from spiked cholesterol and hydrogenated soy phosphatidylcholine suspended in methanol, and from multilamellar vesicles.

In this study, we set out to characterize the complete repertoire of larval zebrafish horizontal saccades to gain insight into their contributions to visually guided behavior and underlying neural control. We identified five saccade types, defined by systematic differences in kinematics and binocular coordination, which were differentially expressed across a variety of behavioral contexts.
