Glucose Isomerase (GI), also known as xylose isomerase, is a remarkable enzyme that holds a critical place in modern industrial biotechnology. This enzyme is used extensively to convert glucose into ...

This is when your cells stop responding to the hormone insulin. The pancreas produces insulin, which allows sugar (glucose) to enter your cells. When your body doesn’t use insulin properly ...

Believe it or not, urban myths also apply to fitness and fat loss. There is a misconceived notion that muscle which remains unused or never stimulated is simply converted to fat. You worked so hard to ...

To obtain the required energy they undergo anaerobic respiration ... the overall yield of ATP per glucose molecule is less than aerobic respiration, the speed at which ATP is produced is quicker.

Aerobic respiration requires oxygen to fully oxidise glucose into carbon dioxide and water, producing a large amount of ATP. If oxygen is limited (e.g., in anaerobic conditions), cells shift to ...

The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index has demonstrated significant promise as a prognostic marker for metabolic health in different types of cancer. Further research is needed to explore the ...

The importance of the gastrointestinal microbiota (GM) in health and disease is widely recognized. Although less is known in fish than in mammals, advances in molecular techniques, such as 16S rRNA ...

Resistant starch, in particular, offers unique health benefits. Unlike digestible starch, which is broken down into glucose (blood sugar), resistant starch travels to the colon. There, gut bacteria ...
