The organophosphorous pesticide, demeton-S-methyl was transformed by Corynebacterium glutamicum in co-metabolism with more readily degradable substrates. Glucose, acetate and fructose were tested as growth substrates, and the highest demeton-S-methyl biotransformation average rate (0.78 mg l(-1) h(-1)) and maximum instantaneous rate (1.4 mg l(-1) h(-1)) were achieved on fructose. This higher efficiency seems to be linked to the atypical behavior of C. glutamicum grown on fructose, characterized by a prolonged period of accelerating growth instead of a constant growth rate observed on glucose or acetate. More precisely, for growth rates in the 0.1-0.4 h(-1) range, a direct coupling between the specific demeton-S-methyl consumption rate and the growth rate was demonstrated on fructose during batch-, steady state continuous- or continuous cultures with a controlled transient growth rate (accelerostat technology). The demeton-S-methyl biotransformation was more favoured during an acceleration phase of the growth rate.

Owing to China's massive area and vastly differing regional variations in the types and efficiency of energy, the spatiotemporal distributions of regional carbon emissions (CE) vary widely. Regional CE study is becoming more crucial for determining the future course of sustainable development worldwide. In this work, two types of nighttime light data were integrated to expand the study's temporal coverage.

The main objective of this work is to study the mathematical model that combines stem cell therapy and chemotherapy for cancer cells. We study the model using the fractal fractional derivative with the Mittag-Leffler kernel. In the analytical part, we study the existence of the solution and its uniqueness, which was studied based on the fixed point theory.

The combined impact of concurrent primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) and autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) on pregnancy outcomes remains underreported. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 115 pregnant patients diagnosed with pSS and delivering at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from January 2009 to July 2023. The effects of AITD on maternal and neonatal outcomes were examined and compared to a control group without AITD.

Background: Cyst size, its growth rate, and diameter of the main pancreatic duct (MPD) are all associated with pancreatic carcinoma prevalence in intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs).
Objective: To examine the above factors in relation to future risk of incident pancreatic carcinoma in individuals with IPMNs harbouring no high-risk stigmata.
Design: In a prospective longitudinal cohort, we analysed 2549 patients with IPMNs.

Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase encoded by ppc catalyzes the anaplerotic reaction of oxaloacetate in the TCA cycle in Escherichia coli. Deletion of ppc does not prevent the cells from replenishing oxaloacetate via the glyoxylate shunt, but the ppc-deletion strain almost did not grow on glucose. In the present study, we obtained evolved strains by deleting both ppc and mutS to increase the mutation rate and investigated the mechanisms for improving growth by analyzing the mutated genes.
