Acetic acid aerosol particles, formic acid aerosol particles and mixed acid/ice particles were generated in a collisional cooling cell at a temperature of 78 K and investigated using in situ rapid scan Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The infrared spectra reveal that the internal structure of the particles critically depends on the particle formation conditions and, especially for the mixed particles, on the composition. The acetic acid particles are likely to have only a partially crystalline structure whereas the formic acid particles are likely to have an overall crystalline structure. The existence of acid in the mixed acid/ice particles prevents the ice from crystallization even at low acid concentrations (less than 10%). Mid-infrared refractive index data were derived from the different particle spectra, which can be helpful for remote sensing of such systems.

Endophytes are bacteria that inhabit host plants for most of their life cycle without causing harm. In the study, 15 endophytic bacteria were isolated from 30 forage Sorghum plants and assessed for various plant growth-promoting (PGP) traits, such as phosphate solubilization, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) deaminase activity, ammonia production, siderophore production, gibberellic acid production, Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) production, and zinc solubilization. One isolate, JJG_Zn, demonstrated multiple PGP activities and was identified as Enterobacter sp.

Over the past two decades, research has increasingly focused on the interactions between diet, gut microbiota, and host organisms. Recent evidence suggests that tryptophan, an essential amino acid, can be metabolized by gut microbiota into indoles, which have significant biological effects. However, most research is limited to indole and its liver metabolite, indoxyl sulfate.

Background: Diabetic neuropathy (DN) is a heterogeneous condition characterized by complex pathophysiological changes affecting both autonomic and somatic components of the nervous system. Inflammation and oxidative stress are recognized contributors to the pathogenesis of DN. This study aims to evaluate the therapeutic potential of dichloroacetic acid (DCA) in alleviating DN symptoms, focusing on its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

Objectives: This study investigates the performance of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, namely Cerviray AI, compared with Cerviray expert, aiming to compare its sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC ROC). The Visual Inspection with Acetic Acid (VIA) test is used as the gold standard.
Results: The study involved 44 patients from various health centers in West Java Province.

FCP-2-1, a water-soluble polysaccharide isolated and purified from Finger Citron, demonstrated hypoglycemic effect in vitro in our previous study. However, its antidiabetic effect and underlying mechanism in vivo remain to be elucidated. In this study, the antidiabetic effect of FCP-2-1 and its effects on the gut microbiota, short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) in high-fat diet (HFD) and streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice were investigated.
