The chemical composition of Vietnamese oil samples of the aerial parts of Clausena indica (Dalz.) Oliver and C. anisum-olens (Blanco) Merryll have been investigated using a combination of chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques. C. indica essential oil contained mainly terpinolene (53.9 and 56.1%), and myristicin (17.9 and 7.3%), whereas the major components of C. anisun-olens essential were citronellal (22.8%), geranial (21.4%) and neral (16.8%). The compositions of the investigated samples have been compared with those of essential oils from various origins.

Carbapenemase producing (CPEs) represent a group of multidrug resistant pathogens for which few, if any, therapeutics options remain available. CPEs generally harbor plasmids that encode resistance to last resort carbapenems and many other antibiotics. We previously performed a high throughput screen to identify compounds that can disrupt the maintenance and replication of resistance conferring plasmids through use of a synthetic screening plasmid introduced into K-12 cells.

Drastic changes to the character of the acidic catalyst enable the reversal of the double alkyne benzannulation reaction output. In the presence of a strong Brønsted acid, 1,4-dihydropyrrolopyrroles undergo transformation which results in the formation of two 7-membered rings. Computational studies imply that the thermodynamically unfavored 7-membered ring is forged via the kinetically favored attack of a protonated alkyne at the position 3a of pyrrolopyrrole followed by a 1,2-vinyl shift.

Background: Integrating multi-layered information can enhance the accuracy of genomic prediction for complex traits. However, the improvement and application of effective strategies for genomic prediction (GP) using multi-omics data remains challenging.
Methods: We generated 11 feature sets for sequencing variants from genomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics, and epigenetics data in beef cattle, then we assessed the contribution of functional variants using genomic restricted maximum likelihood (GREML).

Background: Primary luminal breast cancer cells lose their identity rapidly in standard tissue culture, which is problematic for testing hormone interventions and molecular pathways specific to the luminal subtype. Breast cancer organoids are thought to retain tumor characteristics better, but long-term viability of luminal-subtype cases is a persistent challenge. Our goal was to adapt short-term organoids of luminal breast cancer for parallel testing of genetic and pharmacologic perturbations.

Background: Indoor air pollution (IAP) is the major contributor (26%) to TB, in addition to other socioeconomic and environmental factors. It occurs in most developing countries like India, where people rely on the combustion of biomass-based solid fuels (low combustion efficiency and high pollution emissions) due to the prevailing socio-economic conditions. However, this cause-and-effect relationship between TB and IAP has not been studied much.
