Bread by-product and maize silage as substrates for larvae were studied in four isonitrogenous diets: a control substrate (CTL) made of wheat grain, wheat bran, and soybean meal and three diets where wheat grain and wheat bran were partly substituted with bread by-product (BBP) or with this and either a low (MSL) or high (MSH) proportion of maize silage (170 or 310 g/kg, respectively). Larval weight was weekly monitored, and the chemical composition of larvae and residual substrates was analyzed at the end of the experiment. Larvae fed CTL and BBP grew more than those fed MSL and MSH ( < 0.

Article Synopsis
  • The Nipah virus (NiV) poses a significant public health risk due to its high fatality rate and lack of effective treatments; this study aims to identify potential drug candidates using computational methods.
  • Researchers focused on the NiV-enveloped attachment glycoprotein, essential for the virus to enter host cells, and screened 418 phytochemicals from the neem plant using molecular docking techniques.
  • Three promising phytochemicals—Quercetin, Cianidanol, and Kaempferol—demonstrated strong binding stability and favorable safety profiles, suggesting their potential as novel treatments for NiV infections.

Purpose: To evaluate whether the modification of ingredients of two bakery products, muffins and bread, reduces their glycemic index, by means of in vitro and in vivo procedures.

Methods: In vitro and in vivo glycemic index were evaluated for two types of bread and two types of muffins including one standard product for each category. For the in vitro determination, kinetics of starch digestion method was used.
