INCREASED MICROERYTHROCYTE COUNT IN HOMOZYGOUS ALPHA(+)-THALASSAEMIA CONTRIBUTES TO PROTECTION AGAINST SEVERE MALARIAL ANAEMIA.

Increased microerythrocyte count in homozygous alpha(+)-thalassaemia contributes to protection against severe malarial anaemia.

The heritable haemoglobinopathy alpha(+)-thalassaemia is caused by the reduced synthesis of alpha-globin chains that form part of normal adult haemoglobin (Hb).Individuals homozygous for alpha(+)-thalassaemia have microcytosis and an increased erythrocyte count.Alpha(+)-thalassaemia homozygosity confers considerable protection against severe malari

Integration of Postbiotics in Food Products through Attenuated Probiotics: A Case Study with Lactic Acid Bacteria in Bread

The study NECK STRIPS examines the integration of postbiotics in food products through the use of attenuated probiotics, specifically lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in bread.Postbiotics, non-viable microorganisms or their metabolites, offer health benefits similar to probiotics without the risks associated with live bacteria.This research evaluates the
