The Role of Vericiguat in Early Phases of Anterior Myocardial Infarction: A Potential Game-Changer?

Anterior myocardial infarction is a critical condition with significant implications for cardiac function and patient prognosis. Despite advancements in reperfusion therapies, optimizing recovery during the early phases of myocardial infarction remains challenging. Anterior myocardial infarction can lead to substantial long-term effects on a patient's health due to extensive damage to the heart muscle, particularly the left ventricle, impacting both quality of life and overall prognosis.

Exploring 1,3-Dioxolane Extraction of Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) and Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) from and Mixed Methanotrophic Strain: Effect of Biomass-to-Solvent Ratio and Extraction Time.

The increasing need for biodegradable polymers demands efficient and environmentally friendly extraction methods. In this study, a simple and sustainable method for extracting polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate (PHB-co-HV) from and a mixed methanotrophic consortium with different biopolymer contents was presented. The extraction of biopolymers with 1,3-dioxolane was initially investigated by varying the biomass-to-solvent ratio (i.

Techno-economic assessment of biopolymer production from methane and volatile fatty acids: effect of the reactor size and biomass concentration on the poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) selling price.

Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) is a biobased and biodegradable polymer that could efficiently replace fossil-based plastics. However, its widespread deployment is slowed down by the high production cost. In this work, the techno-economic assessment of the process for producing poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) from low-cost substrates, such as methane and valeric acid derived from the anaerobic digestion of organic wastes, is proposed.

Polyhydroxyalkanoate recovery overview: properties, characterizations, and extraction strategies.

Due to their excellent properties, polyhydroxyalkanoates are gaining increasing recognition in the biodegradable polymer market. These biogenic polyesters are characterized by high biodegradability in multiple environments, overcoming the limitation of composting plants only and their versatility in production. The most consolidated techniques in the literature or the reference legislation for the physical, chemical and mechanical characterisation of the final product are reported since its usability on the market is still linked to its quality, including the biodegradability certificate.
