Participant Handbook 58th District Court Sobriety Treatment Program Participant Handbook Revised 10/2014 Welcome! Welcome to the Ottawa County Sobriety Treatment Program (STP). This handbook is designed to answer your questions and provide overall in- formation about the program. As a participant, you will be expected to CONTENTS follow the instructions given to you by the Judge and to comply with the Welcome treatment plan developed for you by the case manager and treatment Overview team. The STP Team This handbook will detail what is expected of you as a participant. It will Confidentiality review general program information. We are confident the STP will help Progress Reports you learn how to make successful choices free of the influence of drugs Review Hearings or alcohol. Court Room Rules Program Rules Overview Narcotic Medications 12 Step Meetings The STP is a four phase intervention program for adults who have pled Incentives guilty to more than one alcohol offense and who are having difficulty Sanctions staying clean and sober. It is a collaborative effort between the District Home Visit Guidelines Court, the Prosecutor’s Office, your defense attorney, community agen- Alcohol and Drug Testing cies, case management, and treatment programs. By working together, Program Phases the team seeks to provide a variety of programs and consistent supervi- Restricted License sion geared toward supporting and helping you maintain a drug and al- Ignition Interlock cohol free life. The STP involves frequent court appearances, random Driver Responsibility Fee drug and alcohol testing, as well as group and individual counseling. The Termination From Program Court awards incentives for compliant behavior and imposes sanctions Commencement for negative behavior. Participants who do not comply with the rules may Alumni Reunions be placed in short-term custody, have phase advancement delayed, or Conclusion face a variety of other sanctions. They may also be terminated from the Phone Numbers program. All of the staff working with the program will assist you to be sure you understand what is expected of you. Sanctions for violations of STP rules, or the probation order, may be imposed by the Court without formal probation violation hearings. If the factual basis for the claimed violation is disputed, partici- pants have the right to a hearing by the Court to determine whether or not the violation occurred. If the proposed sanction involves a jail term, the participant has the right to demand a formal proba- tion violation hearing with representation by an attorney, including a court appointed attorney if the participant cannot afford one. If a violation involves the possibility of termination from the STP or revocation of probation, the Court will proceed by way of a formal probation violation. P a g e 2 Participant Handbook The STP Team The STP Judge will make all decisions regarding your participation in the STP, with input from the team. Prior to the STP review, the team members receive an update from the case managers regarding your progress. In addition to the Judge, the team consists of the following members: Defense Attorney- Protects the rights of the defendant. Prosecuting Attorney- Assists in reviewing cases for eligibility. Case Managers- Provide direct supervision of participants. Treatment Providers– Responsible for educating participants and helping them deal with alcohol and drug abuse issues. Surveillance Officers– Conduct home visits to ensure program compli- ance. Saving Lives, Reuniting Families, and Improving Communities Confidentiality By law, your identity and privacy are to be protected. In response to these regulations, the STP team has developed policies and procedures that guard your privacy. You will be asked to sign a Consent for Disclosure of Confidential Substance Abuse Information form.

Low Molecular Weight Organic Composition of Ethanol Stillage from Sugarcane Molasses, Citrus Waste, and Sweet Whey Abstract Filtered stillage from the distillation of ethanol made by yeast fermentation of sugarcane molasses, citrus waste, and sweet whey was analyzed by gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy and by high-performance liquid chromatography. Nearly all of the major peaks representing low molecular weight organic components were identified. The am jor components in cane stillage were, in decreasing order of concentration, lactic acid, glycerol, ethanol, and acetic acid. In citrus stillage they were lactic acid, glycerol, myo-inositol, acetic acid, chiro-inositol, and proline.

  • New Yeasts Capable of Assimilating Methanol*
    J. Gen. Appl. Microbiol., 18, 295-305 (1972) NEW YEASTS CAPABLE OF ASSIMILATING METHANOL* TOSHIKAZU OKI, KAGEAKI KOUNO, ATSUO KITAI, ANDASAICHIRO OZAKI Central Research Laboratories of Sanraku- Ocean Co., Ltd., Fujisawa, Japan (Received May 10, 1972) Twenty strains of methanol strongly assimilating yeasts were isolated from rotten tomato and a flower of azalea through investigations on the single- cell protein production and on the microbial utilization of Cl compound. Taxonomic studies indicated that these yeasts were limited to certain species of Candida and Torulopsis, including two new species; C. methanolica OKi et KouNo sp. nov. and T. methanolovescens OKi et KouNo sp. nov. One hundred and ninety-one strains of yeasts obtained from type culture collections did not exhibit methanol assimilability at all. The possibility of producing a single-cell protein from methanol by micro- organisms was suggested by the extensive studies concerning methane- or methanol-assimilating bacteria, Pseudomonas sp. PRL-W4 (1), Pseudomonas methanica (2, 3, 4), Methanomonas methanooxidans (5, 6), Pseudomonas AM 1(7 ), Pseudomonas sp. M27 (8), and Vibrio extorquens (9). Moreover, it is of considerable interest that OGATA et al. first reported the assimila- tion of methanol by yeast, Kloeckera sp. No. 2201 (10, 11, 12). More recently, ASTHANA et al. (13) isolated one species of yeast capable of uti- lizing methanol as a primary carbon source and identified it tentatively as Torulopsis glabrata. However, its taxonomical characteristics have not been reported yet. In the course of investigations on yeast production and microbial utiliza- tion of Ci compounds, two new species of yeasts assimilating methanol as a carbon and energy source were isolated from natural sources.

  • Benzyl-L-Threitol
    A Publication of Reliable Methods for the Preparation of Organic Compounds Working with Hazardous Chemicals The procedures in Organic Syntheses are intended for use only by persons with proper training in experimental organic chemistry. All hazardous materials should be handled using the standard procedures for work with chemicals described in references such as "Prudent Practices in the Laboratory" (The National Academies Press, Washington, D.C., 2011; the full text can be accessed free of charge at http://www.nap.edu/catalog.php?record_id=12654). All chemical waste should be disposed of in accordance with local regulations. For general guidelines for the management of chemical waste, see Chapter 8 of Prudent Practices. In some articles in Organic Syntheses, chemical-specific hazards are highlighted in red “Caution Notes” within a procedure. It is important to recognize that the absence of a caution note does not imply that no significant hazards are associated with the chemicals involved in that procedure. Prior to performing a reaction, a thorough risk assessment should be carried out that includes a review of the potential hazards associated with each chemical and experimental operation on the scale that is planned for the procedure. Guidelines for carrying out a risk assessment and for analyzing the hazards associated with chemicals can be found in Chapter 4 of Prudent Practices. The procedures described in Organic Syntheses are provided as published and are conducted at one's own risk.

  • Bio-Based Chemicals from Renewable Biomass for Integrated Biorefineries
    energies Review Bio-Based Chemicals from Renewable Biomass for Integrated Biorefineries Kirtika Kohli 1 , Ravindra Prajapati 2 and Brajendra K. Sharma 1,* 1 Prairie Research Institute—Illinois Sustainable Technology Center, University of Illinois, Urbana Champaign, IL 61820, USA; [email protected] 2 Conversions & Catalysis Division, CSIR-Indian Institute of Petroleum, Dehradun, Uttarakhand 248005, India; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 10 December 2018; Accepted: 4 January 2019; Published: 13 January 2019 Abstract: The production of chemicals from biomass, a renewable feedstock, is highly desirable in replacing petrochemicals to make biorefineries more economical. The best approach to compete with fossil-based refineries is the upgradation of biomass in integrated biorefineries. The integrated biorefineries employed various biomass feedstocks and conversion technologies to produce biofuels and bio-based chemicals. Bio-based chemicals can help to replace a large fraction of industrial chemicals and materials from fossil resources. Biomass-derived chemicals, such as 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF), levulinic acid, furfurals, sugar alcohols, lactic acid, succinic acid, and phenols, are considered platform chemicals. These platform chemicals can be further used for the production of a variety of important chemicals on an industrial scale. However, current industrial production relies on relatively old and inefficient strategies and low production yields, which have decreased their competitiveness with fossil-based alternatives. The aim of the presented review is to provide a survey of past and current strategies used to achieve a sustainable conversion of biomass to platform chemicals. This review provides an overview of the chemicals obtained, based on the major components of lignocellulosic biomass, sugars, and lignin.

  • Green Synthesis of 1,5‑Dideoxy‑1,5‑Imino‑Ribitol and 1 ,5
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Green synthesis of 1,5‑dideoxy‑1,5‑imino‑ribitol and 1,5‑ dideox y‑1 ,5‑ imino‑ dl ‑a rabinitol from natural d‑sugars 2− over Au/Al2O3 and ­SO4 /Al2O3 catalysts Hongjian Gao & Ao Fan* A green synthetic route for the synthesis of some potential enzyme active hydroxypiperidine iminosugars including 1,5‑dideoxy‑1,5‑imino‑ribitol and 1,5‑dideoxy‑1,5‑imino‑dl‑arabinitol, starting from commercially available d‑ribose and d‑lyxose was tested out. Heterogeneous catalysts including 2− Au/Al2O3, SO4 /Al2O3 as well as environmentally friendly reagents were employed into several critical reaction of the route. The synthetic route resulted in good overall yields of 1,5‑dideoxy‑1,5‑imino‑ ribitol of 54%, 1,5‑dideoxy‑1,5‑imino‑d‑arabinitol of 48% and 1,5‑dideoxy‑1,5‑imino‑l‑arabinitol of 46%. The Au/Al2O3 catalyst can be easily recovered from the reaction mixture and reused with no loss of activity. Iminosugars are analogues of carbohydrates, chemically named as polyhydroxylated secondary and tertiary amines and found to be widespread in plants and microorganisms. Tanks to their structural similarity to sugar molecules and excellent metabolic stability, iminosugars are endowed with a high pharmacological potential for a wide range of diseases such as viral infections, tumor metastasis, AIDS, diabetes and lysosomal storage disorders1–11. Iminosugars are generally classifed into fve structural classes: pyrrolidines, piperidines, indolizidines, pyrrolizidines and nortropanes12. Hydroxypiperidines are structurally six-membered iminosugars. Some of the hydroxypiperidines such as 1,5-dideoxy-1,5-iminohexitol derivatives have now been commercialized as drugs to treat type II diabetes mellitus, type I Gaucher disease, Niemann-Pick disease type C (NP-C) and Fabry disease13–18.

  • Sugar Alcohols a Sugar Alcohol Is a Kind of Alcohol Prepared from Sugars
    Sweeteners, Good, Bad, or Something even Worse. (Part 8) These are Low calorie sweeteners - not non-calorie sweeteners Sugar Alcohols A sugar alcohol is a kind of alcohol prepared from sugars. These organic compounds are a class of polyols, also called polyhydric alcohol, polyalcohol, or glycitol. They are white, water-soluble solids that occur naturally and are used widely in the food industry as thickeners and sweeteners. In commercial foodstuffs, sugar alcohols are commonly used in place of table sugar (sucrose), often in combination with high intensity artificial sweeteners to counter the low sweetness of the sugar alcohols. Unlike sugars, sugar alcohols do not contribute to the formation of tooth cavities. Common Sugar Alcohols Arabitol, Erythritol, Ethylene glycol, Fucitol, Galactitol, Glycerol, Hydrogenated Starch – Hydrolysate (HSH), Iditol, Inositol, Isomalt, Lactitol, Maltitol, Maltotetraitol, Maltotriitol, Mannitol, Methanol, Polyglycitol, Polydextrose, Ribitol, Sorbitol, Threitol, Volemitol, Xylitol, Of these, xylitol is perhaps the most popular due to its similarity to sucrose in visual appearance and sweetness. Sugar alcohols do not contribute to tooth decay. However, consumption of sugar alcohols does affect blood sugar levels, although less than that of "regular" sugar (sucrose). Sugar alcohols may also cause bloating and diarrhea when consumed in excessive amounts. Erythritol Also labeled as: Sugar alcohol Zerose ZSweet Erythritol is a sugar alcohol (or polyol) that has been approved for use as a food additive in the United States and throughout much of the world. It was discovered in 1848 by British chemist John Stenhouse. It occurs naturally in some fruits and fermented foods. At the industrial level, it is produced from glucose by fermentation with a yeast, Moniliella pollinis.

  • ISPD Produces CDP-Ribitol Used by FKTN and FKRP to Transfer Ribitol Phosphate Onto A-Dystroglycan
    ARTICLE Received 7 Dec 2015 | Accepted 6 Apr 2016 | Published 19 May 2016 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms11534 OPEN ISPD produces CDP-ribitol used by FKTN and FKRP to transfer ribitol phosphate onto a-dystroglycan Isabelle Gerin1, Benoıˆt Ury1,*, Isabelle Breloy2,*, Ce´line Bouchet-Seraphin3, Jennifer Bolse´e1, Mathias Halbout1, Julie Graff1, Didier Vertommen1, Giulio G. Muccioli4, Nathalie Seta3, Jean-Marie Cuisset5, Ivana Dabaj6, Susana Quijano-Roy6,7,8, Ammi Grahn1,w, Emile Van Schaftingen1 & Guido T. Bommer1 Mutations in genes required for the glycosylation of a-dystroglycan lead to muscle and brain diseases known as dystroglycanopathies. However, the precise structure and biogenesis of the assembled glycan are not completely understood. Here we report that three enzymes mutated in dystroglycanopathies can collaborate to attach ribitol phosphate onto a-dystroglycan. Specifically, we demonstrate that isoprenoid synthase domain-containing protein (ISPD) synthesizes CDP-ribitol, present in muscle, and that both recombinant fukutin (FKTN) and fukutin-related protein (FKRP) can transfer a ribitol phosphate group from CDP-ribitol to a-dystroglycan. We also show that ISPD and FKTN are essential for the incorporation of ribitol into a-dystroglycan in HEK293 cells. Glycosylation of a-dystroglycan in fibroblasts from patients with hypomorphic ISPD mutations is reduced. We observe that in some cases glycosylation can be partially restored by addition of ribitol to the culture medium, suggesting that dietary supplementation with ribitol should be evaluated as a therapy for patients with ISPD mutations. 1 WELBIO and de Duve Institute, Biological Chemistry, Universite´ Catholique de Louvain, B-1200 Brussels, Belgium. 2 Institute for Biochemistry II, Medical Faculty, University of Cologne, D-50931 Cologne, Germany.
