The present study uses molecular dynamics simulations to perform a systematic analysis for the screening of 14 biomass-derived aviation fuel additives, namely, ethanol, butanol, hexanol, ethyl ...

The increase in enzymatic rates with temperature up to an optimum temperature (Topt) is widely attributed to classical Arrhenius behavior, with the decrease in enzymatic rates above Topt ascribed to ...

Objective The gut microbiota are the main source of infections in necrotising pancreatitis. We investigated the effect of disruption of the intestinal microbiota by a Western-type diet on mortality ...

These animals also showed increased concentrations of butyrate in their guts, which is a metabolite made when microbes break down fiber. Butyrate induces the release of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) ...

Gut bacteria can ferment fiber, producing a molecule known as butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid that is believed to have anti-cancer properties, including inhibiting tumorous cell growth and ...
