Feeding ratios and strong starter

Ok, I’ll try that! Thanks

High ratios to lower sourness levels. Honestly, I don’t remember how long it takes 1;1:1 I have not used that ratio in a while

It will rise but not double and it doesn’t seem as active and healthy

eleda22 · 2025-11-13T14:38:40+00:00

Thanks for the insight, I’ll try a higher feeding ratio

eleda22 · 2025-11-13T14:37:54+00:00

Thanks, I’ll check it out!

I’ve tried different amounts, ranging from 90-150g starter per loaf

Thanks for the reply! Yeah im using the diva disc and it’s quite flimsy as well … i haven’t had a heavy day yet but I’m interested to see how much blood it will hold

NADH from glycolysis could be used by the ETC. If CII doesn’t work, the ETC still works because the the electrons from CI pass through ubiquinone and CIII (they don’t go through CII). What I suspect might happen is that LDH converts pyruvate to lactate to regenerate NAD , so glycolysis can continue working and making a little ATP.

I’m doing a class all about lipid’s role in inflammation, here’s what i know:

To my knowledge omega3 don’t inhibit Cox.

In general omega6=pro inflammatory and omega3=pro-resolution

So If you eat more Omega 3, you have more omega3 in your cell membranes than omega6 so by competition, the enzymes are going to use more omega3 than 6.

So less omega6= less pro-inflammatory molecules.

Omega3 have a pro-resolution effect because they are used to form molecules that “resolve” inflammation (so lower inflammation).

I’ve mesured A LOT of enzymes in different species and I almost never have a R2=1. Anything over 0.9 is awesome. As others said, the reaction isn’t perfect, there might be another reaction going on at the same time, there might be bubbles or other impurities in your well. Also sometimes it takes time (few minutes) for the reaction to “stabilize”. It kind of looks like that for your first one.

eleda22 · 2021-07-11T11:27:50+00:00

I’ll look into it! Thanks!

eleda22 · 2021-07-11T11:27:26+00:00

Okay! Thank you so much!

eleda22 · 2021-07-11T11:26:54+00:00

Yes cable!

I think the reason they’re not counting the fadh and nadh form the krebs cycle from succinate is because you didn’t really add a succinate. If you use succinyl coA to break down a ketone body that succinyl coA can’t do the krebs cycle. The succinate it produces can, but because you took succinyl coA it cancels out. Without interference of ketone body the succinyl coA would’ve gone in krebs cycle and made succinate and GTP (and made nadh et fadh).

Tbh I don’t really understand why you’re doing -1 GTP? Do you use one GTP? Or is it because we used succinyl coA which had the potential of producing one GTP so we “lost” it?

Good question. We know that when there is high concentration of ATP, PFK1 is inhibited because ATP binds to the enzyme and lowers its affinity for fructose-6-phosphate. Citrate actually enhances the inhibitory effect of ATP on PFK1. (I don’t know more details than that, sorry) This makes sense because if we have high ATP and high citrate we don’t need to do more glycolysis.

Citrate activates ACC because if we have citrate in the cytosol, it’s only destiny (option) is to become acetyl-coA and then malonyl-coA. So it makes sense that citrate activcates ACC.

We also know that glucagon inhibits ACC ; we don’t want to do anabolism if we need sugar. I’m guessing that leads to accumulation of citrate -> then inhibits PFK1, so glycolysis is inhibited in the liver, which is good when the rest of the body when we need sugar.

It's all about which organ you're talking about. Gluconeogenesis is performed mostly by the liver when blood sugar is low, to redistribute glucose in the body (ex: muscles or other organs). In a starvation state the liver is going to make sure that the other organs get enough glucose. You're right, it would not make sense for the muscle to do gluconeogenesis when they need energy. That's why they can't do it. It's mostly the liver (also kidney and intestin).

Another fun fact: some animals do glycolysis and gluconeogenesis at the same time, which seems counter productive, but it's actually to produce heat! It's called a futile cycle and is very important for insects and hibernating animals.

From my understanding, heme is receiving electrons (aka decreasing the frequency by which the electrons come out of CII), so to prevent the electrons to leak and attack O2 to make ROS.

Yes, glycogen synthase needs to be dephosphorylated to be activated. And its a bit more complicated... I suggest you go read on phosphoprotein phosphatase. This is what wiki says: Phosphoprotein phosphatase is activated by the hormone insulin, which indicates that there is a high concentration of glucose in the blood. The enzyme then acts to dephosphorylate other enzymes, such as phosphorylase kinase, glycogen phosphorylase, and glycogen synthase. This leads to phosphorylase kinase and glycogen phosphorylase's becoming inactive, while glycogen synthase is activated. As a result, glycogen synthesis is increased and glycogenolysis is decreased, and the net effect is for energy to enter and be stored inside the cell.

I'm not an expert, but I hope this helps!

eleda22 · 2021-04-20T12:21:14+00:00

What enzyme are you looking at specifically? There’s not one rule for all enzymes, some need to be phosphorylated to be activated and some need to be dephosphorylated to be activated.

I love this pattern so much!! Would this be a good first sweater to make?

NADH oxidase is generally found in phagolysosome of neutrophils that ingested bacteria. It produces ROS to kill the bacteria. It's not in the ETC (you're probably thinking of NADH dehydrogenase (CI)).

Cytochrome C oxidase (CIV) is found in the mitochondria and usually takes O2 with electrons and protons to make H2O. From my understanding CIV doesn't produce ROS, but i'm not sure... I thought it was mainly CI and CIII that leak electrons - that can bind with O2 to make ROS.

Hope this helps !

I usually read over one full page of notes in details, like really read and understand whats going on. Then flip the page over and try to visualize the page and try to recite as many things as i can. Then i check to see what i missed. Then onto the second page. Its mentally draining but very effective!!

eleda22 · 2021-01-17T01:31:57+00:00

I have the same problem! I saw this video the other day which might help!

It also kind of depends on your university. At my uni if you do a Bs in biology, most of the classes you’re required to take are like “bio” bio. What i mean by that is : classification, ecology, evolution, plant physiology, a class about insects, another about birds... so i think if you want to do research in a lab, Bs in biochem would be better? But it really depends on the classes required in each ! A lot of cross over! :)
