A brief history of taxonomy, for the most part plant oriented, is provided, which demonstrates the use of morphology early on, through the stages when different technologies became available at different times until the present use of genomic tools. Genomic authentication facilitates with greater precision than ever before the identification of an organism or part thereof. In this chapter I made an attempt to stress that, in general, but more so for genomic authentication, the use of the variation inherent in taxa down to the lowest level of the hierarchy of classification needs to be used to achieve a high degree of correct authentication.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) hallmarks are amyloid plaques and tau tangles. APOE and TREM2 are the strongest genetic risk factors for AD. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) is increasingly recognized to play a central role in amyloid beta clearance and microglia activation in AD.

Introduction: is a widespread acid-lactic bacterium found in the environment, humans, and animal microbiota, and it also plays a role in the production of traditional food. However, the worldwide emergence of multidrug-resistant strains represents a major public health threat and is the primary reason that the genus is not recommended for the Qualified Presumption of Safety (QPS) list of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), raising concerns about its presence in food products.
Methods: In this study, 39 and 5 isolates were obtained from artisanal brine cheeses and dry sausages, sourced from 21 different Montenegrin producers.

Proteins remaining in commercial wines are responsible for the protein haze in white wine unless they are effectively removed before bottling. To avoid this undesirable phenomenon, techniques of precipitation and filtration are applied in the white wine making process to eliminate a large part of them (fining processes) (Ribéreau-Gayon et al., Handbook of enology, vol 2, 3rd edn.

Previous studies have demonstrated a correlation between dietary salt intake and stroke; however, there was a lack of conclusive evidence regarding a causal connection between them. We undertook a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study to examine their potential association. The genome-wide data for dietary salt intake was sourced from genome-wide association study that involved 462,630 samples.
