A Gram-reaction-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming, non-motile bacterial strain, designated BUT-6(T), was isolated from activated sludge of a wastewater-treatment facility. The strain grew at 15-35 °C (optimum 30 °C), pH 4.0-10.0 (optimum pH 7.0) and 0-3.0 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum 1.0 %). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA sequences showed that strain BUT-6(T) was most closely related to Tahibacter aquaticus PYM5-11(T) (98.6 % similarity). However, the DNA-DNA relatedness between strain BUT-6(T) and T. aquaticus PYM5-11(T) was 47.1 %. The major fatty acids (>10 % of total fatty acids) of strain BUT-6(T) were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C17 : 1ω9c and iso-C17 : 0. The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone Q-8. The profile of polar lipids consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylmethylethanolamine, an unidentified aminophospholipid, three unknown aminolipids and unidentified phospholipids. The DNA G+C content of strain BUT-6(T) was 71.7 mol%. On the basis of the data from the polyphasic taxonomic study presented, strain BUT-6(T) is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Tahibacter, for which the name Tahibacter caeni sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is BUT-6(T) ( = CCTCC AB 2013266(T) = KACC 17139(T)).

The multi-component ring-opening reactions of cyclic ethers offer an efficient strategy for the rapid introduction of multiple functional groups and the construction of complex molecular architectures. Despite the minimal ring strain in five- and six-membered rings presenting a significant challenge for ring-opening, advancements have been made. Traditional acid-catalyzed pathways have been complemented by a novel approach involving carbene-induced oxonium intermediate formation, which has emerged in recent years and expanded the selectivity of ring-opening reactions.

Background: Retail involves directly delivering goods and services to end consumers. Natural disasters and epidemics/pandemics have significant potential to disrupt supply chains, leading to shortages, forecasting errors, price increases, and substantial financial strains on retailers. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need for retail sectors to prepare for crisis impacts on sales forecasts by regularly assessing and adjusting sales volumes, consumer behavior, and forecasting models to adapt to changing conditions.

Introduction: Micrococcus luteus is a commensal bacterial member of the human skin and is essential in keeping the balance among the various microbial flora of the skin. M. luteus strain Q24 or BLIS Q24™ was isolated from the skin of a healthy human adult and is known to produce a unique antimicrobial spectrum that is inhibitory towards pathogens associated with skin diseases.

Introduction: Chronic disease is generally known to affect dogs' quality of life (QoL) as well as being associated with increased strain on their owners. Gastrointestinal (GI) disease is a common problem in companion animal practice, yet little is known about the QoL of dogs with chronic enteropathy (CE) and how their owners and veterinarians assess it.
Methods: The aim of this study was to explore: (i) how dog owners and veterinarians observed and evaluated QoL for dogs with chronic GI disease, (ii) how having a dog with CE affected the owner's QoL, and (iii) characteristics of the communication and relationship between the dog owner and veterinarian.
