Application of Genetic Algorithm and U-Net in Brain Tumor Segmentation and Classification: A Deep Learning Approach.

The development of unusual cells in the cerebrum causes brain cancer. It is classified primarily into two classes: a noncarcinogenic (benign) type of growth and cancerous (malignant) growth. Early detection of this disease is a quintessential task for all medical practice professionals.

Influence of Different Prebiotics on Viability of , and Encapsulated in Alginate Microcapsules.

As the production and maintenance of a sufficient number of microencapsulated probiotics is still a test for the food industry, the present study addressed the testing of three prebiotics: chicory inulin, soluble potato starch, oligofructose and a control carbon source, namely glucose, as a component part of the encapsulation matrix. Using the extrusion encapsulation technique, it was possible to obtain microcapsules whose matrix composition and dimensions correspond to the requirements of the food industry. The microcapsules obtained showed significantly different physicochemical properties, with different survival rates during processing, storage and in simulated gastrointestinal conditions.
