TL;DR: Pyxigraphy is a noninvasive, simple, and safe sampling method that allows to study the microbial populations of the proximal colon and showed that methanogens preferentially colonize the distal part of the colon in CH4 excretors.

TL;DR: The present data suggest that the consumption of RTE cereals contributes to a balanced diet, and the strong association between cereal consumption and vitamin and mineral intakes confirm previous studies suggesting that R TE cereals make a major contribution to micronutrient intakes.
Abstract: Aims: The nutrient impact of ready-to-eat (RTE) cereal consumption was assessed in adults (men 45–60 years; women 35–60 years old) who regularly consumed RTE cereals anytime during

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the dynamics of energy hopping among the antenna chromophores in the presence of a merocyanine dye (DCMOH) and an oxazine dye (Ox725).
Abstract: The water-soluble β-cyclodextrin, CD-St, with seven steroidic naphthalene chromophores linked to the primary rim, can form inclusion complexes with a merocyanine dye (DCMOH) and an oxazine dye (Ox725); the stoichiometry is 2:1 (CD-St:dye). This system works as an antenna since the dye is surrounded by 14 chromophores. The efficiency of transfer from the antenna chromophores to the encased dye was found to be close to 100%. The dynamics of this heterotransfer and homotransfer (i.e., energy hopping among the antenna chromophores) was investigated by time-resolved fluorescence intensity and time-resolved fluorescence anisotropy experiments, respectively. The distribution of rate constants for homotransfer was recovered thanks to a previously described Monte Carlo simulation from which an average rate constant was calculated and found to be about 4 × 1011 s-1. This value is about 10 times faster than the rate constant for heterotransfer in the case of Ox725, and about three times faster than in the case of DC...

TL;DR: In the high school, infection attack rates were 38.1% (91/239), 43.4% (23/53), and 59.3% (16/27), in pupils, teachers, and non-teaching staff respectively.
Abstract: BackgroundChildren's role in SARS-CoV-2 epidemiology remains unclear. We investigated an initially unnoticed SARS-CoV-2 outbreak linked to schools in northern France, beginning as early as mid-January 2020.AimsThis retrospective observational study documents the extent of SARS-CoV-2 transmission, linked to an affected high school (n = 664 participants) and primary schools (n = 1,340 study participants), in the context of unsuspected SARS-CoV-2 circulation and limited control measures.MethodsBetween 30 March and 30 April 2020, all school staff, as well as pupils and their parents and relatives were invited for SARS-CoV-2 antibody testing and to complete a questionnaire covering symptom history since 13 January 2020.ResultsIn the high school, infection attack rates were 38.1% (91/239), 43.4% (23/53), and 59.3% (16/27), in pupils, teachers, and non-teaching staff respectively vs 10.1% (23/228) and 12.0% (14/117) in the pupils' parents and relatives (p < 0.001). Among the six primary schools, three children attending separate schools at the outbreak start, while symptomatic, might have introduced SARS-CoV-2 there, but symptomatic secondary cases related to them could not be definitely identified. In the primary schools overall, antibody prevalence in pupils sharing classes with symptomatic cases was higher than in pupils from other classes: 15/65 (23.1%) vs 30/445 (6.7%) (p < 0.001). Among 46 SARS-CoV-2 seropositive pupils < 12 years old, 20 were asymptomatic. Whether past HKU1 and OC43 seasonal coronavirus infection protected against SARS-CoV-2 infection in 6-11 year olds could not be inferred.ConclusionsViral circulation can occur in high and primary schools so keeping them open requires consideration of appropriate control measures and enhanced surveillance.

TL;DR: This work showed that in the different samples, the same species were present but in significantly different proportions according to ground type, harvest dates and retting durations on field, and noticed a higher bacterial diversity in comparison to fungi.
Abstract: Historically used in textile and paper industry, hemp fibres have started to find new applications in composite materials with important economic and ecological advantages. However, their applications are limited since manufacturers have some difficulties to standardise fabrication processes. This study is a first step before selection and isolation of strains that could later be used to optimise microbial retting efficiency and hence fibre quality. We studied six samples harvested on different ground types, at different dates and with different retting durations on field to obtain an exhaustive representation of the process. After DNA extraction, total bacteria and fungi associated with stems during retting were specifically quantified using real-time PCR. Then, using sequence analysis of randomly cloned 16S and 18S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, a phylogenetic characterisation of the dominant microorganisms was carried out. Quantitatively, we showed that there were 8.1–9.5 log10 16S rRNA gene copies per gram of hemp straw for bacteria and 8.6–9.6 log10 18S rRNA gene copies per gram for fungi. Qualitatively, we noticed a higher bacterial diversity in comparison to fungi. This work showed that in the different samples, the same species were present but in significantly different proportions according to ground type, harvest dates and retting durations on field. The most frequent bacterial sequences were affiliated to species Escherichia coli, Pantoea agglomerans, Pseudomonas rhizosphaerae, Rhodobacter sp., Pseudomonas fulva, Rhizobium huautlense and Massilia timonae, whereas fungal sequences were principally related to the genera Cladosporium and Cryptococcus.
