On optimization of substrate removal in a bioreactor with wall attached and suspended bacteria by Alma Mašić, Hermann J. Eberl

“…We approximate the Pareto Front numerically and study the behaviour of the system and its dependence on reactor and initial data.Overall, the modest potential of control strategies to improve reactor performance is found to be primarily due to an initial transient period in which the bacteria have to adapt to the environmental conditions in the reactor, i.e. depends heavily on the initial state of the dynamic system. …”

Iodine Supplementation: Usage “with a Grain of Salt” by Alessandro Prete, Rosa Maria Paragliola, Salvatore Maria Corsello

“…To date, evaluating iodine status in a clinical setting has limitations, and assessing the actual risk for each individual can be challenging, since it is influenced by personal history, genetics, and environmental factors. In conclusion, iodine supplementation programs need to be continued and strengthened, but iodine should be used “with a grain of salt,” because a growing number of susceptible individuals will be exposed to the risk of developing iodine-induced thyroid disorders.…”
