The biocatalytic anti-Prelog stereoselective reduction of ethyl acetoacetate (EAA) to ethyl (R)-3-hydroxybutyrate {(R)-EHB} was successfully conducted in the aqueous system using immobilized Acetobacter sp. CCTCC M209061 cells. Among various microorganisms tested, Acetobacter sp. CCTCC M209061 gave the best performance and

The asymmetric bio-reduction of 4-chloro-acetoacetic-acid-ethyl-ester to the pharmaceutical building block (S)-4-chloro-3-hydroxybutanoate-ethyl-ester requires the utilization of an enantioselective robust biocatalyst. Some of the natural Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains, isolated from Mount Carmel National Park in Israel, were characterized as resistant to environmental

Mammalian neonates depend on their mother's food supply and use a defined sequence of actions to find her mammary area. Their behavior is initially uncertain and demanding but rapidly becomes optimal. Efficient learning is thus operating in newborns. For instance
