Effects of nisin on growth of bacteria attached to meat
TLDR
It is disclosed that nisin delays the growth of some gram-positive bacteria attached to meat, however, nisin alone may not be sufficient to prevent meat spoilage because of the presence of gram-negative and other nisin-resistant gram- positive bacteria.

Possible roles of excess tryptophan metabolites in cancer
TLDR
It could be concluded that tryptophan metabolites play a complementary role in promoting carcinogenesis along with carcinogens like aflatoxin, CCl4,2‐acetylaminofluorene, 4‐aminobiphenyl, 2‐naphthylamine, or N‐[4‐(5‐nitro‐2‐furyl)−2‐thiazolyl] formamide.
