A method (200) for controlling and managing the connectivity of at least one gas meter (100) provided with an integrated e-UICC, in order to guarantee connectivity continuity for a data transmission to a remote acquisition system, of data and measurements indicative of gas deliveries generated by at least one gas meter (100) in a plurality of sites, even under at least one anomaly condition.

The invention is in the field of biomedicine; and relates to Lacticaseibacillus paracasei subsp. tolerans, and a specific strain or a variant thereof, and their use in the treatment of insulin resistance syndrome, polycystic ovary syndrome, insulin resistance related infertility, gestational diabetes, obesity, and proinflammatory conditions. The invention also relates to a biologically pure culture, or a composition, or a pharmaceutical product, or a feed, or a nutritional product, or a nutraceutical composition comprising the specific strain or variant thereof, and a cosmetic method comprising administering the specific strain, or the biologically pure culture, composition, pharmaceutical product, feed, nutritional product, or nutraceutical composition.

A gas meter (100) is provided. The meter comprises a battery capacity calculation system (115, FG(k)) configured to calculate a residual capacity of said one or more batteries (B(k)), the battery capacity calculation system (115, FG(k)) comprises at least one electronic measuring device (FG(k)) of a quantity of electric charge delivered by a respective one of said one or more batteries (B(k)), the electronic measuring device (FG(k)) is configured to periodically sample at least either the voltage or the current requested from the respective battery (B(k)) and to calculate a quantity of electric charge delivered by such battery (B(k)) on the basis of sampled values obtained from the periodic sampling of at least one between the voltage and the current. The battery capacitance calculation system (115, FG(k)) is configured to set a sampling frequency of the one electronic measuring device (FG(k)) to: - a first sampling frequency value, when the gas meter (100) is in a basic operating condition, and - a second sampling frequency value greater than the first sampling frequency value, when the gas meter (100) is in an extended operating condition.

The invention relates to a method for producing a trypsin-like protease in Bacillus, the method comprising expressing in a Bacillus host cell a gene coding for a preproenzyme comprising or consisting of (i) a trypsin-like protease having a sequence identity of at least 70% compared to the wild-type trypsin-like protease from the fungus Fusarium oxysporum, and (ii) preferably, a prosequence located upstream of the trypsin-like protease and having at its C-terminus a basic amino acid residue, and (iii) a bacterial secretion signal sequence located upstream of the trypsin-like protease and of the optionally present prosequence, wherein the bacterial secretion signal sequence is capable of directing secretion in a Bacillus host cell to a culture medium, thereby providing a culture medium comprising the mature trypsin-like protease.
