In heme degradation, biliverdin reductase catalyzes the conversion of biliverdin to bilirubin. Defects in the biliverdin reductase A gene () causing biliverdinuria are extraordinarily rare in humans, and this inborn error of metabolism has not been reported in other mammals. The objective of this study was to diagnose biliverdinuria and identify the causal variants in two adult mixed-breed dogs with life-long green urine.

However, its hydroalcoholic nature leads to a bitter taste and a burning sensation, presenting challenges for direct consumption or incorporation into new food products. This study aimed to address these issues by encapsulating concentrated chasteberry extract using spray-drying with Arabic gum, followed by spray-chilling with vegetable fat as carriers.

In response, the Philippines Government's Department of Health (DOH) has established a new residential treatment model, Intensive Treatment and Rehabilitation Program for Residential Treatment and Rehabilitation Centers (INTREPRET), and integrated it into the existing treatment service platform of 21 DOH-owned Treatment and Rehabilitation Centers (TRCs). We conducted a qualitative study to identify the changes engendered by the implementation of this treatment model.

- The -representability problem aims to determine if a given -body matrix can be derived from a corresponding -body density matrix through contraction, which is crucial for finding a system's exact ground state.
- Understanding the complete conditions for -representability is complicated due to the exponential growth of constraints with the size of the system, making it impractical for larger applications.
- The study introduces a hybrid quantum-stochastic algorithm to replace traditional -representability checks, utilizing adaptive unitary evolution and a simulated annealing process to efficiently assess and improve the quality of -body matrices from various quantum models.
