Fates of attached E. coli o157:h7 on intact leaf surfaces revealed leafy green susceptibility
Food Microbiol. 2024 May;119:104432. doi: 10.1016/j.fm.2023.104432. Epub 2023 Nov 28.ABSTRACTLeafy greens, especially lettuce, are repeatedly linked to foodborne outbreaks. This paper studied the susceptibility of different leafy greens to human pathogens. Five commonly consumed leafy greens, including romaine lettuce, green-leaf lettuce, baby spinach, kale, and collard, were selected by their outbreak frequencies. The behavior of E. coli O157:H7 87-23 on intact leaf surfaces and in their lysates was investigated. Bacterial attachment was positively correlated with leaf surface roughness and affected by the epicuticular wa...

Planning target volume margin in head and neck cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy: Estimations derived from own data and literature
Planning target volume (PTV) to deliver the desired dose to the clinical target volume (CTV) accounts for systematic ( ∑) and random (σ) errors during the planning and execution of intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). As these errors vary at different departments, this study was conducted to determine the 3-dimensional PTV (PTV3D) margins for head and neck cancer (HNC) at our center. The same was also es timated from reported studies for a comparative assessment. A total of 77 patients with HNCs undergoing IMRT were included. (Source: Medical Dosimetry)

AminoacWylase efficiently hydrolyses fatty acid amino acid conjugates of Helicoverpa armigera potentially to increase the pool of glutamine
Insect Biochem Mol Biol. 2024 Jan 2:104070. doi: 10.1016/j.ibmb.2024.104070. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOne of the most prevalent bioactive molecules present in the oral secretion (OS) of lepidopteran insects is fatty acid amino acid conjugates (FACs). Insect dietary components have influence on the synthesis and retaining the pool of FACs in the OS. We noted differential and diet-specific accumulation of FACs in the OS of Helicoverpa armigera by using Liquid Chromatography-Quadrupole Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry. Interestingly, we identified FACs hydrolyzing enzyme aminoacylase (HaACY) in the OS of H. armigera thro...
