Most mutations that decreased antibiotic susceptibility were related to specific metabolic pathways. A MIC-increase to ...

A blood sugar test measures the amount of sugar circulating in the blood. Blood sugar, or glucose, is a vital health metric, as it’s the main source of energy for most cells in the body.

This study by Graca et al. explores ethanol metabolism pathways in mycobacteria. The enzyme, MftG, a flavoprotein dehydrogenase, is shown to act as an electron shuttle between an uncommon redox ...

Enzymatic hydrolysis Enzymes then break down complex carbohydrates into simple carbohydrates such as glucose. Fermentation Yeast is then added to the sugar solution to ferment the sugars by anaerobic ...

Extreme fluctuations in blood sugar (glucose), whether too high (hyperglycemia) or too low (hypoglycemia), can be dangerous for people with diabetes. The type of diabetes, your medication regimen, ...

There are three glucose catabolic pathways: aerobic oxidation, anaerobic glycolysis, and pentose phosphate pathway (37). Among all three pathways, hexokinase (HK) is in the first step and the vital ...

As mentioned above, gluconeogenesis can synthesize glucose from various precursors, of which lactate is the most important. Due to a low oxygen supply, the distal tubules in the inner medulla mainly ...
