Tolerability of glutamine supplementation in older adults: a double-blind placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial.

In this double-blind placebo-controlled randomized investigation, we assessed the tolerability of glutamine in older adults recruited from three daycare centers. The relevance of studying glutamine supplementation in elderly patients lies in its potential to provide a well-tolerated intervention. Glutamine, a crucial amino acid, plays a vital role in various physiological processes, including immune function and protein synthesis.

Fish processing provides waste of around 50.0% to 70.0% of the animal's initial weight, especially the skin.

Electroencephalography Signal Analysis for Human Activities Classification: A Solution Based on Machine Learning and Motor Imagery.

Electroencephalography (EEG) is a fundamental tool for understanding the brain's electrical activity related to human motor activities. Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) uses such electrical activity to develop assistive technologies, especially those directed at people with physical disabilities. However, extracting signal features and patterns is still complex, sometimes delegated to machine learning (ML) algorithms.

Aspergillus flavus from coffee in Cameroon: a non-aflatoxigenic endophytic isolate antagonistic to coffee leaf rust (Hemileia vastatrix).

Aims: Elucidating the identity of an isolate of Aspergillus sp. obtained during searches for anti-coffee leaf rust (CLR) biocontrol agents, from healthy coffee berry samples, preliminarily verify whether it is an aflatoxin-producer, confirm its ability to grow as an endophyte in healthy coffee tissues and assess its biocontrol potential against CLR.

Methods And Results: One, among hundreds of fungal isolates fungus were obtained from healthy coffee tissues belonged to Aspergillus (isolate COAD 3307).
