To determine the rates of methionine splanchnic uptake and utilization in critically ill pediatric patients we used two kinetic models: the plasma methionine enrichment and the "intracellular" homocysteine enrichment. Twenty four patients, eight infants, eight children, and eight adolescents, were studied. They received simultaneous, primed, constant, intravenous infusions of l-[(2)H(3)]methylm...

This study examined how 16 Black, Latina, and American Indian women science students reacted to their undergraduate science classes. I focused on the meanings they made of the common features of university science documented by Seymour and Hewitt (1997), including large, competitive, fast-paced classes, poor teaching, and an unsupportive culture. I also explored their responses to the values ma...

Increasing evidence emphasizes that the effects of human impacts on ecosystems must be investigated using designs that incorporate the responses across levels of biological organization as well as the effects of multiple stressors. Here we implemented a mesocosm experiment to investigate how the individual and interactive effects of CO2 enrichment and eutrophication scale-up from changes in pri...

Compared with the common grain, Tartary buckwheat enjoys higher nutritional value. Some distinctive nutrition associated physiological activity of is valuable in medicine. In addition, it’s a good feed crop. paper, main components (starch, protein, amino acid, fatty acid and mineral) polyphenol bioactive its sprouts were reviewed, accumulation flavonoids during germination, especially methods, ...

Volatile fatty acids (VFAs) are produced in the human colon by the bacterial breakdown of carbohydrates that escape digestion and absorption in the small intestine. They have important local and systemic effects on gastrointestinal and nutritional functions. Measuring their production is difficult because of inaccessibility of sampling sites and low circulating concentrations. Stable isotope tr...

The article discusses the chemical composition of meat according to main qualitative characteristics identify least nutritious product for its subsequent enrichment with various micronutrients. introduction dishes and products an adjusted vitamins, macro- microelements into existing diet average person is a serious intervention in traditionally established structure human nutrition. need such d...

A review of the literature has revealed a scarcity of attempts to compare directly various methods proposed for the detection of Salmonella organisms in food products. Unfortunately, often it has been assumed that methods useful in clinical or public health laboratories, engaged in identifying cases and carriers, are also suitable for the examination of food products. Furthermore, in many insta...

• The likely consequences of future high levels of atmospheric CO 2 concentration on wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) grain nutritional and baking quality were determined. • Two free-air CO 2 enrichment (FACE; 550 mmol mol − 1 ) experiments were conducted at ample (Wet) and limiting (Dry) levels of irrigation, and a further two experiments at ample (High-N) and limiting (Low-N) nitrogen concentrat...
