This study demonstrated that increased dietary protein-to-lipid ratio (P/L-ratio) improved survival of farmed Atlantic salmon naturally affected by pancreas disease (PD). In addition to diet, body weight (BW) and delousing mortality prior to the PD outbreak also contributed significantly (p < 0.05) to explain the observed variation in PD-associated mortality.

Article Synopsis
- More attention is being paid to how people (Human Factors) affect safety in oil and gas accidents in Norway.
- A study revealed that companies often ignore important human aspects like communication and decision-making when designing control centers, mainly focusing on the more obvious physical aspects.
- To improve safety, experts in Human Factors should be involved from the beginning of projects, and authorities must ensure that safety rules regarding Human Factors are understood and followed.
Thioredoxin (Trx) maintains intracellular thiol groups in a reduced state and is involved in a wide range of cellular processes, including ribonucleotide reduction, sulphur assimilation, oxidative stress responses and arsenate detoxification. The industrially important lactic acid bacterium Lactococcus lactis contains two Trxs. TrxA is similar to the well-characterized Trx homologue from Escherichia coli and contains the common WCGPC active site motif, while TrxD is atypical and contains an aspartate residue in the active site (WCGDC).
