Efficient enzymatic syntheses of isosteric phosphono analogues of sugar nucleotides have been accomplished using a thymidylyltransferase.

This study deals with the retardation of cement setting time and workability in hot weather such as Sultanate Oman. Combination sugar gypsum was used retarders. The aim this to investigate effect retarders on consistency, ordinary Portland (OPC) paste compressive strength concrete cubes after 7 days curing. OPC a water ratio 0.4 0.5 prepared by mixing 500 grams cement, fixed amount 0.02% weight...

Sugar consumption can increase the longevity and lifetime fecundity of many species of parasitic wasps. Consequently, for these insects the availability of sugar sources in the field is important for their reproductive success. As sugar sources can be highly variable in quantity, space and time, the chances of finding a sufficient amount of sugar to increase longevity might be very low. Therefo...

Although females of most mosquito species are known to use sugar as a necessary source of energy, female Anopheles gambiae Giles sensu stricto are thought to use it facultatively or not at all. However, field evidence of sugar-free living is inconclusive, and the implications for reproductive fitness and vectorial capacity are unknown. To evaluate the role that sugar may play in the ecology of ...

background: cancer is a major public health problem and one of the leading causes of death worldwide. lifestyle factors including dietary patterns are a major determinant of increasing rates of cancer. sugar-sweetened beverages (ssbs) have recently received great attention due to their effects on hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, reduced insulin sensitivity, and obesity as well as their probable...

Functional lactic acid bacteria (LAB) as starter cultures used in sourdough fermentation have been researched for years. This study evaluated the LAB strains Leuconostoc citreum DCM65 (mannitol, exopolysaccharide producing, antifungal activity) and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum subsp. MA418 (amylolytic their potential single or co-culture starters fermented buns containing different levels of s...

In this paper, we use a feedback to change the orientation and the shape of the center manifold of a system with uncontrollable linearization. This change will directly affect the reduced dynamics on the center manifold, and hence will change the stability properties of the original system.
