The presentation explains type of whiskey and the service methods of each whiskey. storage procedure and the international brand name of whiskey is explained. whiskey production method is described and Scotch and blended whiskey is covered in the presentation.
Milk urea is an approximate indicator of the amount of crude protein in a cow's diet. It is formed from the metabolism of absorbed amino acids and body protein.The digestion of protein in the rumen releases ammonia. If there is excess ammonia it is absorbed through the rumen wall into the blood stream and converted to urea in the liver. Most of the urea is excreted in the cow’s urine although some passes into the milk.If the diet is deficient in nitrogen, then the urea is not excreted, but recycled back into the rumen and converted back to ammonia.

Cheddar-type cheeses are characterized by the mixing of salt with the curd before it is pressed into a coherent loaf. Salt considerably retards the growth of lactic acid bacteria. Because of this, most of the lactose in the curd should have been converted before the curd is salted, & curd making, therefore, requires a long time. Moreover, salted curd tends to fuse poorly during pressing if its pH is still too high (above, say, 5.6) because the curd flows insufficiently.Formerly, when cheese was made from skimmed milk, the milk was usually left for creaming for such a long time that it turned sour. Naturally, the curd was also acidic & could thus be salted before pressing; an example is Frisian cheese.
However, currently most cheeses of this type are made of unsoured milk, such as Cantal & almost all British types. The cheese becomes relatively dry due to the long curd-making time & the low pH. Because the salt is relatively homogeneously dispersed through the fresh cheese, it can be made in large loaves, which is desirable to prevent water loss by vaporization & to minimize curing costs. On the other hand, it takes a long time for the interior of the loaf to cool.
These cheeses are typically hard with a long shelf life & without a surface flora. The best known is Cheddar: about 50% fat in the dry matter, not more than 38% water, Originally of cylindrical shape, weighing about 30 kg. Nowadays, mostly rectangular blocks of variable (often large) size are made. Cheddar & derived varieties are now manufactured all over the world, though primarily in English-speaking countries. Cheshire is slightly more acidic & has a somewhat higher water content. This is also true of Caerphilly, but this cheese is eaten while young & is mainly used in cooking. Stilton is quite different. Its salted curd is not heavily pressed & is shaped into a cheese with an open texture; the cheese becomes veined with blue mold.
Synthetic milk is the chemically produced milk that differs from the animal milk. It is manufactured by mixing the predefined and calculated amount of urea, caustic soda, refined oil and common detergents. The purpose of adding the detergents is to aid in the emulsification of the solution and giving a frothy appearance. The milk looks almost similar to the regular milk in all respects. The differentiating factors would taste and the nutritional elements.
In refining process, physical and chemical processes are combined to remove undesirable natural as well as environmental-related components from the crude oil.

Sanitation is the Key
A properly managed sanitation program greatly reduces the risk of contamination.
The craft beer industry is fortunate, from a safety standpoint, that no pathogens can survive in beer with
normal alcohol content, bitterness, carbonation, and pH. However, sanitation is the first step in a great
brew process and a step that must be repeated as necessary throughout the process to protect your
brand. Whether it is manual cleaning or an automated process, sanitation is serious business—and
you need a sanitation partner who can ensure that you are cleaning effectively, efficiently, and safely.

Earliest Galaxies in the JADES Origins Field: Luminosity Function and Cosmic ...Sérgio Sacani
We characterize the earliest galaxy population in the JADES Origins Field (JOF), the deepest
imaging field observed with JWST. We make use of the ancillary Hubble optical images (5 filters
spanning 0.4−0.9µm) and novel JWST images with 14 filters spanning 0.8−5µm, including 7 mediumband filters, and reaching total exposure times of up to 46 hours per filter. We combine all our data
at > 2.3µm to construct an ultradeep image, reaching as deep as ≈ 31.4 AB mag in the stack and
30.3-31.0 AB mag (5σ, r = 0.1” circular aperture) in individual filters. We measure photometric
redshifts and use robust selection criteria to identify a sample of eight galaxy candidates at redshifts
z = 11.5 − 15. These objects show compact half-light radii of R1/2 ∼ 50 − 200pc, stellar masses of
M⋆ ∼ 107−108M⊙, and star-formation rates of SFR ∼ 0.1−1 M⊙ yr−1
. Our search finds no candidates
at 15 < z < 20, placing upper limits at these redshifts. We develop a forward modeling approach to
infer the properties of the evolving luminosity function without binning in redshift or luminosity that
marginalizes over the photometric redshift uncertainty of our candidate galaxies and incorporates the
impact of non-detections. We find a z = 12 luminosity function in good agreement with prior results,
and that the luminosity function normalization and UV luminosity density decline by a factor of ∼ 2.5
from z = 12 to z = 14. We discuss the possible implications of our results in the context of theoretical
models for evolution of the dark matter halo mass function.
Slide 1: Title Slide
Extrachromosomal Inheritance
Slide 2: Introduction to Extrachromosomal Inheritance
Definition: Extrachromosomal inheritance refers to the transmission of genetic material that is not found within the nucleus.
Key Components: Involves genes located in mitochondria, chloroplasts, and plasmids.
Slide 3: Mitochondrial Inheritance
Mitochondria: Organelles responsible for energy production.
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA): Circular DNA molecule found in mitochondria.
Inheritance Pattern: Maternally inherited, meaning it is passed from mothers to all their offspring.
Diseases: Examples include Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) and mitochondrial myopathy.
Slide 4: Chloroplast Inheritance
Chloroplasts: Organelles responsible for photosynthesis in plants.
Chloroplast DNA (cpDNA): Circular DNA molecule found in chloroplasts.
Inheritance Pattern: Often maternally inherited in most plants, but can vary in some species.
Examples: Variegation in plants, where leaf color patterns are determined by chloroplast DNA.
Slide 5: Plasmid Inheritance
Plasmids: Small, circular DNA molecules found in bacteria and some eukaryotes.
Features: Can carry antibiotic resistance genes and can be transferred between cells through processes like conjugation.
Significance: Important in biotechnology for gene cloning and genetic engineering.
Slide 6: Mechanisms of Extrachromosomal Inheritance
Non-Mendelian Patterns: Do not follow Mendel’s laws of inheritance.
Cytoplasmic Segregation: During cell division, organelles like mitochondria and chloroplasts are randomly distributed to daughter cells.
Heteroplasmy: Presence of more than one type of organellar genome within a cell, leading to variation in expression.
Slide 7: Examples of Extrachromosomal Inheritance
Four O’clock Plant (Mirabilis jalapa): Shows variegated leaves due to different cpDNA in leaf cells.
Petite Mutants in Yeast: Result from mutations in mitochondrial DNA affecting respiration.
Slide 8: Importance of Extrachromosomal Inheritance
Evolution: Provides insight into the evolution of eukaryotic cells.
Medicine: Understanding mitochondrial inheritance helps in diagnosing and treating mitochondrial diseases.
Agriculture: Chloroplast inheritance can be used in plant breeding and genetic modification.
Slide 9: Recent Research and Advances
Gene Editing: Techniques like CRISPR-Cas9 are being used to edit mitochondrial and chloroplast DNA.
Therapies: Development of mitochondrial replacement therapy (MRT) for preventing mitochondrial diseases.
Slide 10: Conclusion
Summary: Extrachromosomal inheritance involves the transmission of genetic material outside the nucleus and plays a crucial role in genetics, medicine, and biotechnology.
Future Directions: Continued research and technological advancements hold promise for new treatments and applications.
Slide 11: Questions and Discussion
Invite Audience: Open the floor for any questions or further discussion on the topic.
The increased availability of biomedical data, particularly in the public domain, offers the opportunity to better understand human health and to develop effective therapeutics for a wide range of unmet medical needs. However, data scientists remain stymied by the fact that data remain hard to find and to productively reuse because data and their metadata i) are wholly inaccessible, ii) are in non-standard or incompatible representations, iii) do not conform to community standards, and iv) have unclear or highly restricted terms and conditions that preclude legitimate reuse. These limitations require a rethink on data can be made machine and AI-ready - the key motivation behind the FAIR Guiding Principles. Concurrently, while recent efforts have explored the use of deep learning to fuse disparate data into predictive models for a wide range of biomedical applications, these models often fail even when the correct answer is already known, and fail to explain individual predictions in terms that data scientists can appreciate. These limitations suggest that new methods to produce practical artificial intelligence are still needed.
In this talk, I will discuss our work in (1) building an integrative knowledge infrastructure to prepare FAIR and "AI-ready" data and services along with (2) neurosymbolic AI methods to improve the quality of predictions and to generate plausible explanations. Attention is given to standards, platforms, and methods to wrangle knowledge into simple, but effective semantic and latent representations, and to make these available into standards-compliant and discoverable interfaces that can be used in model building, validation, and explanation. Our work, and those of others in the field, creates a baseline for building trustworthy and easy to deploy AI models in biomedicine.

Richard's aventures in two entangled wonderlandsRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.

16. Boiling and bittering
Hoping
The temperature of the wort is increased up to 100 °C and, depending on the recipe, the hop is
added to make bitter at certain levels the future beer
In this phase:
- Sterilization of wort
- Isomerization of iso-alpha acids
- Concentration of wort
- Coloring of wort
- Inactivation of enzymes
- Coagulation of proteins and complexes polyphenols-proteins
Boil duration about 60 minutes
In this phase is possible a real-time control
of the IBU yield of your recipe
17. Focus on the hops ….
The hop cones in the female flowers are rich in secondary metabolites:
- Resins (alpha and beta acids)
- Essential oils
- Polyphenols
The isomers are more
soluble in water
Isomerization of Humulone
Formed in hops

19. Alcoholic Fermentation
and FAN analysis
The importance of Free Amino Nitrogen analysis
It is important to have high FAN values
before the fermentation to guarantee
the right nutritional status for the yeasts
It is important to have low FAN values in the
finished beer to avoid off-flavors and to
extend the biological stability

After maturation fermentable sugars are analyzed
An exact content of sugar is added
to produce the desired gassing
The residual fermentable sugars is a powerful tool
to avoid unpleasant problems of over gassing in the bottle
Very important:
final analysis of alcohol by volume in beer
and Total SO2
22. Total SO2 analysis
SO2 is produced during the fermentation by yeasts
The legal limit is 10 mg/L. Over this limit it has
to be written on the label «contain sulfites»
It is a very important quality control test for the breweries
CDR BeerLab® determines the Total SO2
using the EBC reference method
23. Water Analysis
Water forms about 95% of the finished product
The water quality control is very important for obtaining
a “reproducible” beer from the taste
and sensory point of view
It is not true that water is always the same !!!
24. Water Analysis
The sum of Calcium (Ca2+) and Magnesium (Mg2+) constitutes Hardness
Very hard waters affect negatively drinkability
Sulphates (SO4
2-) affect bitterness perception
Chlorides (Cl-) affect the body of the beer
Bicarbonate (HCO3
-) works as buffer and prevents lowering of pH when
pH is too high before mashing
Zinc (Zn2+) for the fermentation management

29. We have trialled the CDR BeerLab Analyser to establish whether it could meet the requirements for
analysing a number of important beer and wort quality parameters.
In our work with the CDR BeerLab Analyser we found that:
The instrument was easy to use
The user interface was logical and user friendly
No calibration is required
Compared to traditional alcohol and bitterness methods, the CDR BeerLab methods were much quicker
The system has a low environmental impact due to minimal waste production and the very low sample
and reagent volumes required
Assessment of the CDR BeerLab® Analyser
31. Extracts from Summary
… the CDR BeerLab analyser has been shown to give comparable performance in the measurement of pH,
colour, bitterness and alcohol to established methods. ……
Accuracy of the CDR BeerLab with regards to agreement with the declared values of ABV was very good for all
sample types. ………
… precision values for the CDR BeerLab, for all analyses, are well within the tolerances expected for
spectrophotometers in the brewing industry
The low reagent and sample volumes required for analysis not only reduces reagent costs but also reduces the
amount of waste produced, thereby providing analysis with a low environmental impact.
In the case of alcohol and bitterness, the CDR BeerLab methods are faster than traditional methods (in the case
of bitterness significantly faster) and all methods tested during this evaluation show close agreement to the
reference method.
