The increase in methane emissions, a major greenhouse gas, threatens human well-being and global ecosystems due to its contribution to global warming. Livestock, particularly ruminants, have been a major research topic in recent decades due to their methane production. Therefore, the objective of the current review was to comprehensively discuss the in silico techniques used to mitigate methane production from ruminants.

The potential of repurposing MDF waste as an adsorbent for the treatment of Cd(II), Cu(II), Pb(II), and Zn(II) ions in water was investigated using MDF offcuts. The highest adsorption potential in single-metal ion solution systems was observed for Pb(II) ions.

We demonstrate the successful use of neostigmine in a patient with resistant gastroparesis following distal gastrectomy.
Case Presentation: A 73-year-old male presented with features of gastric outflow obstruction 3 weeks following a distal gastrectomy.
Beef quality is characterized by marbling (marbling degree and marbling fineness), physiochemical (shear force, meat color, fat color, texture, and maturity), and sensory (tenderness, flavor, juiciness, taste, odor, and appearance) traits. This paper summarizes and addresses beef-quality characteristics and the beef-grading systems in Korea, Japan, the USA, and Australia. This paper summarizes recent research progresses on the genetic and nutritional factors that affect beef quality.

Diet is a significant root cause of type II diabetes; thus, the significance of dietary interventions in preventing and managing the disease cannot be neglected. Lowering the glycemic impact of diet is an alternative way of managing type II diabetes while improving insulin sensitivity.
