Many biologically active compounds have been identified in the mucus of the garden snail , which are effective in the treatment of several diseases such as cancer, ulcers, wounds, etc. The incorporation of these compounds into the green synthesis of copper nanoparticles (CuONPs-Muc) was demonstrated in our previous study. Based on the synergistic effect of two reducing agents- snail mucus and ascorbic acid (AsA)-on CuSO.

Exploring tazarotene, a third-generation retinoid for potential hand osteoarthritis treatment, this study presents the development and validation of an ultra-performance liquid chromatography with quadrupole detector mass spectrometry (UPLC-QDa) method for the simultaneous quantification of tazarotene and tazarotenic acid, its active metabolite, in porcine skin. Method development involved a design-of-experiments approach for chromatographic optimization of gradient steepness, organic solvent volume, column temperature, capillary voltage, flow rate, and cone voltage. Central composite orthogonal design was used to optimize peak area, peak width, retention time, and resolution.

Wheat germ is a byproduct of the cereal industry that contains high levels of protein, fiber, B vitamins, minerals, and other functional microcomponents. However, so far, few applications have been found in the meat industry despite the growing interest in replacing meat with vegetable proteins. Therefore, the use of wheat germ for the production of low-fat frankfurters was considered.

This study explores the potential of novel feed ingredients for monogastric animals, such as pigs and poultry, to enhance meat quality and nutritional value while reducing the environmental footprint of production. Innovative feed options like black soldier fly larvae, microalga, seaweed, fermented soybean hulls, fortified flaxseed and grape pomace have significantly improved meat quality and nutritional traits. Results indicate that these ingredients enrich meat with omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, enhancing nutritional value while improving sensory traits such as flavour, tenderness and colour.

Microorganisms tend to accumulate on surfaces, forming aggregates such as biofilms, which grant them resistance to various environmental stressors and antimicrobial agents. This ability has hindered the effective treatment of diseases caused by pathogenic microorganisms, including Salmonella, which is responsible for a significant number of deaths worldwide. This study aimed to compare the metabolic profiles of planktonic and sessile cells of Salmonella Enteritidis using a metabolomics approach.
