Vitamin B12 biosynthesis is restricted to microorganisms. Most of the steps in the
biosynthesis of vitamin B12 have been characterized in Pseudomonas denitrificans, Salmonella
typhimurium and Propionibacterium freudenreichii. Some authors have reported about the
requirement of more than 30 genes for the entire de novo biosynthesis of cobalamin, which
amounts to about 1 % of a typical bacterial genome. Two different biosynthetic routes for
vitamin B12 exist in nature:
• aerobic, or more precisely an oxygen-dependent pathway that is found in organisms like P.
denitrificans, and
• anaerobic, oxygen-independent pathway investigated in organisms like P. shermanii,
Salmonella typhimurium and Bacillus megaterium.
Introduction :
Antibiotics are antimicrobial agents produced naturally by other microbes (usually fungi or bacteria)
The first antibiotic was discovered in 1896 by Ernest Duchesne and in 1928 "rediscovered" by Alexander Fleming from the filamentous fungus Penicilium notatum.
The antibiotic substance, named penicillin, was not purified until the 1940s (by Florey and Chain), just in time to be used at the end of the second world war.
Penicillin was the first important commercial product produced by an aerobic, submerged fermentation

Primary methods of producing vitamin B12 include microbial fermentation using naturally occurring bacteria such as *Propionibacterium* and *Pseudomonas*. Usually used in industrial manufacturing, genetically modified strains of these bacteria increase output. The procedure begins with fermenting a medium high in nutrients, then uses centrifugation, filtration, and chromatography to extract and purify vitamin B12. The finished product is next formulated into meals that have been fortified and dietary supplements. Because vitamin B12 is so important to human health—in particular, to DNA synthesis, red blood cell generation, and brain function—efficient production of the vitamin is essential.

Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...Sérgio Sacani
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.
DERIVATION OF MODIFIED BERNOULLI EQUATION WITH VISCOUS EFFECTS AND TERMINAL V...Wasswaderrick3
In this book, we use conservation of energy techniques on a fluid element to derive the Modified Bernoulli equation of flow with viscous or friction effects. We derive the general equation of flow/ velocity and then from this we derive the Pouiselle flow equation, the transition flow equation and the turbulent flow equation. In the situations where there are no viscous effects , the equation reduces to the Bernoulli equation. From experimental results, we are able to include other terms in the Bernoulli equation. We also look at cases where pressure gradients exist. We use the Modified Bernoulli equation to derive equations of flow rate for pipes of different cross sectional areas connected together. We also extend our techniques of energy conservation to a sphere falling in a viscous medium under the effect of gravity. We demonstrate Stokes equation of terminal velocity and turbulent flow equation. We look at a way of calculating the time taken for a body to fall in a viscous medium. We also look at the general equation of terminal velocity.
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.
Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvementIshaGoswami9
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.
The ability to recreate computational results with minimal effort and actionable metrics provides a solid foundation for scientific research and software development. When people can replicate an analysis at the touch of a button using open-source software, open data, and methods to assess and compare proposals, it significantly eases verification of results, engagement with a diverse range of contributors, and progress. However, we have yet to fully achieve this; there are still many sociotechnical frictions.
Inspired by David Donoho's vision, this talk aims to revisit the three crucial pillars of frictionless reproducibility (data sharing, code sharing, and competitive challenges) with the perspective of deep software variability.
Our observation is that multiple layers — hardware, operating systems, third-party libraries, software versions, input data, compile-time options, and parameters — are subject to variability that exacerbates frictions but is also essential for achieving robust, generalizable results and fostering innovation. I will first review the literature, providing evidence of how the complex variability interactions across these layers affect qualitative and quantitative software properties, thereby complicating the reproduction and replication of scientific studies in various fields.
I will then present some software engineering and AI techniques that can support the strategic exploration of variability spaces. These include the use of abstractions and models (e.g., feature models), sampling strategies (e.g., uniform, random), cost-effective measurements (e.g., incremental build of software configurations), and dimensionality reduction methods (e.g., transfer learning, feature selection, software debloating).
I will finally argue that deep variability is both the problem and solution of frictionless reproducibility, calling the software science community to develop new methods and tools to manage variability and foster reproducibility in software systems.

2. Occurrence and Economic
Significance
Riboflavin is also called lactoflavin or
Vitamin B2.
First isolated from whey by Kuhn, Gyorgy
and Wagner-Jauregg in 1933.
Structure was confirmed by Kuhn and
Karrer in 1935 by synthesis.
Present in milk as free riboflavin but in
other food (liver, heart, kidney, eggs) as a
part of flavoproteins, which contain the
prosthetic group FMN or FAD.
The daily human demand for riboflavin is
around 1.7 mg, and deficiencies lead to
various symptoms such as, e.g., versions
of dermatitis.
3. Deficiency in rats causes stunted growth, dermatitis
and eye damage.
Ariboflavinosis-a kind of dermatitis is a disease is a
disease in humans caused by its deficiency.
In USA riboflavin, thiamine and nicotinic acid frequently
added to flour to make vitamin enriched bread.
There are 3 main production processes:
1. Chemical synthesis: primarily for pharmaceutical
use. (20%)
2. Biotransformation: here glucose is converted to D-
ribose and subsequently to riboflavin by Bacillus
pumilus. (50%)
3. Direct fermentation: more than 2000 tons per
annum on world wide basis. (30%)
4. Strains Used
Synthesized by many microbes including bacteria, yeast
and fungi.
Two Ascomycete fungi are industrially important.
1. Eremothecium ashbyii (yield: 2 g/l, initially used)
2. Ashbya gossypii (yield: 10-15 g/l, used since 1946)
Despite this yield there is a tough competition between
all 3 processes.
5. At present, three organisms are used for the
industrial production of riboflavin by fermentation:
The filamentous fungus Ashbya gossypii (BASF,
Germany)
The yeast Candida famata (ADM, USA)
A genetically engineered strain of Bacillus subtilis
(DSM, Germany)
6. Structure
It is an alloxazine derivative
consists of pteridine ring
condensed to a benzene ring.
The side chain consists of aC5-
polyhydroxy group – a
derivative of ribitol.
The IUPAC name of riboflavin
is [6,7- dimethyl-9-(d-1’- ribityl)
isoalloxazine].
The isoalloxazine ring acts as a
reversible redox system.
7. Biosynthesis
The biosynthetic pathway is derived from experiments
done on yeast and A. gossypii.
In E. ashbyii and A. gossypii fermentation is not affected
by iron but in clostridia and yeast it is inhibited by very
low conc. of iron. In clostridia 1ppm iron causes 75%
inhibition.
The intermediates of synthesis are as follows:
1. GTP: Guanosine triphosphate
2. PRP: Phosphoribosyl amino pyrimidine
3. ADRAP: Amino-Dioxy Phosphoribitylamio-Pyrimidine
4. Diaminouracil
5. MERL: Methyldihydroxyethyl ribityllumazine
6. DMRL: Dimethyl ribityllumazine
7. Riboflavin
8.
9. Production process
Production is carried out with Ashbya gossypii NRRL-
1056 strain.
A careful sterilization of the culture medium is critical
for high yields, as inoculum size is small (0.75 to 2% of
a 24-48 hour old actively growing culture).
Originally the fermentation used a medium with
glucose and corn steep liquor; sucrose and maltose
were other suitable carbon sources.
Lipids were also used as an energy sources and yields
markedly found to increase.
Riboflavin production (containing corn steep liquor
2.25%, commercial peptone 3.5%, soybean oil 4.5%)
has been further stimulated by the addition of different
peptones, glycine, distillers soluble or yeast extract.
10. By simultaneous feeding of glucose and inositol the rate
of formation of riboflavin can be further increased.
The fermentation takes 7 days with an aeration rate of
0.3vvm at 28 ˚C.
For foam control, silicone antifoam is applied at first and
soybean oil, is added later (also metabolized).
Riboflavin is present both in solution and bound to the
mycelium in the fermentation broth.
The bound vitamin is released from the cells by heat
treatment (1hour at 120 ˚C) and the mycelium is
separated and discarded.
The riboflavin is then further purified.
11. Production using other
organisms
Production of riboflavin with and aliphatic
hydrocarbon as carbon source has been reported
using Pichia guilliermoendii.
Using Pichia miso, 51mg/l riboflavin was obtained
on a medium with n-hexadecane, corn steep liquor
and urea.
Production using Hansenula polymorpha is
reported using methanol.
Crystalline high purity riboflavin is obtained from
Saccharomyces fermentation with acetate as sole
carbon source.
