The feasibility of a generic fermentation feedstock produced from wheat flour has been confirmed in several fermentations of yeasts, bacterium, and filamentous fungus for the production of commodity chemicals. Saccharomyces cerevisiae was incubated for the observation of yeast growth and ethanol production, Pichia farinosa for glycerol production, Monascus purpureus for fungal growth and pigment production, and Lactobacillus bulgaricus for bacteria growth and lactic acid production. The results confirmed that the feedstock contained no inhibitory components to the strains tested. Similar or higher metabolite yields were obtained in comparison with other studies carried in commonly used media.

Background: Wearable sensor technologies, often referred to as "wearables," have seen a rapid rise in consumer interest in recent years. Initially often seen as "activity trackers," wearables have gradually expanded to also estimate sleep, stress, and physiological recovery. In occupational settings, there is a growing interest in applying this technology to promote health and well-being, especially in professions with highly demanding working conditions such as first responders.

Temporal trends in biosecurity in Irish pig herds using a standardized scoring system.

Ir Vet J

Animal Health Ireland, 4-5 The Archways, Carrick On Shannon, Co. Leitrim, N41 WN27, Ireland.

Background: Biosecurity measures are crucial to the introduction and spread of pathogens both within and between farms. External biosecurity focuses on preventing pathogens from entering or leaving the farm, while internal biosecurity aims to limit or stop the spread of pathogens within the farm. Implementing biosecurity measures not only protects animals from disease but also has positive effects on productivity, welfare and farm profitability.

Background: No study has assessed the impact of flavor capsule cigarettes (FCCs) on smoking cessation. Thus, the purpose of this exploratory study was to assess (1) the sociodemographic and smoking-related characteristics associated with using FCCs, and (2) the preliminary impact of FCCs on smoking cessation.

Methods: This study is a secondary data analysis of a single-arm study with 100 individuals living in Mexico who smoked and received a smoking cessation mHealth intervention and pharmacotherapy support.

The Explo'Santé mixed methods protocol: an interventional research school health promotion project in France.

Arch Public Health

January 2025

Laboratory Health Systemic Process (P2S), Research Unit, UR4129, University Claude Bernard Lyon 1, University of Lyon, 11 rue Guillaume Paradin, Lyon, 69008, France.

Background: According to WHO, "noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) kill 41 million people" annually, as the primary cause of death globally. WHO's Global Action Plan for the prevention and control of NCDs 2013-2020 (extended) tackles this issue and its implications regarding inequalities between countries and populations. Based on combined behavioural, environmental and policy approaches, health promotion aims to reduce health inequities and address health determinants through 3 strategies: education, prevention and protection.

Environmental concerns are rising the need to find cost-effective alternatives to fossil oils. In this sense, short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are proposed as carbon source for microbial oils production that can be converted into oleochemicals. This investigation took advantage of the outstanding traits of recombinant Yarrowia lipolytica strains to assess the conversion of SCFAs derived from real digestates into odd-chain fatty acids (OCFA).
