BACKGROUND Across the United States, many states have actively banned the sale of soda in high schools, and evidence suggests that students' in-school access to soda has declined as a result. However, schools may be substituting soda with other sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs), and national trends indicate that adolescents are consuming more sports drinks and energy drinks. This study examined ...

Background and purpose:Consumption of baking soda, as a primary material for preparation of bread dough, has been banned due to its health complications in Iran. So bread production in our country faced difficulties and one part of them is related to health issues which are bread production. Also, in some cases, baking soda is used in the bread production. This study was done to study the envir...

To effectively utilize the solid waste-soda residue (SR) and fly ash (FA), a mixture of 70% SR, 20% FA, 10% clay was formed to produce soda soil (SRS). By adding cement and/or lime, four different SRS proportions were prepared. The compaction properties, mechanical dry–wet stability. Furthermore, mechanisms explored, improvement effect efficiency lime on performance analyzed. results show that ...

Amelia Vader amelia.vader@ gmail.com Evans School of Public Affairs MPA 2013 AbstrAct Introduction Rising obesity rates and lower state and local revenues have resulted in more state governments adopting taxes on soda over the last ten years. The intended effects of soda taxes are to reduce the amount of soda purchased and consumed. This research uses data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Survei...

Gordonia westfalica Kb1 and Gordonia polyisoprenivorans VH2 induce the formation of an extracellular superoxide dismutase (SOD) during poly(cis-1,4-isoprene) degradation. To investigate the function of this enzyme in G. polyisoprenivorans VH2, the sodA gene was disrupted. The mutants exhibited reduced growth in liquid mineral salt media containing poly(cis-1,4-isoprene) as the sole carbon and e...

Baking soda is a readily available household product composed of sodium bicarbonate. It can be used as a home remedy to treat dyspepsia. If used in excessive amounts, baking soda has the potential to cause a variety of serious metabolic abnormalities. We believe this is the first reported case of hemorrhagic encephalopathy induced by baking soda ingestion. Healthcare providers should be aware o...

If the anaesthetic circle system is arranged to increase the humidity of fresh anaesthetic gases by placing the carbon dioxide absorbent canister between the fresh gas inlet and the patient, drying of the soda-lime can occur. Very dry soda-lime adsorbs significant quantities of halothane. Using fresh soda-lime, effluent halothane concentration reached 50% of the input concentration in 35s, but ...

Cattle hoof meal was processed by autoclaving, fermentation, wood ash soda treatment and rawunprocessed hoof.
