Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphomas are characterized by lymphoepithelial lesions pathologically. Colonic MALT lymphomas are relatively rarer than lymphomas of the stomach or small intestine. Endoscopically, colonic MALT lymphoma frequently appears as a nonpedunculated protruding polypoid mass and/or an ulceration in the cecum and/or rectum. We report a unique case of a colonic M...

This study presents influence of millet flour blend on physical, functional, nutritional, cooking and organoleptic characteristics of noodles prepared from composite flour of millet flour blend, whole wheat flour and soy flour. Fiber and amylose/ amylopectin ratio increased significantly (p<0.05) with increase in level of millet flour blend incorporation. Cooking time of developed noodles from ...

The physicochemical and sensory properties of peanut spreads fortified with soy flour were studied. Peanut spreads were replaced by whole soybean flour and soy nut flour at 0, 5, 15, 20 and 30% (w/w). All samples were analyzed for fat, protein, sugar, moisture content, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, hardness and sensory characteristics. Replacing peanut spread with soy flour had significant effect...

The fortified of soft wheat flour with cowpea flour in bread making was investigated. The Soft wheat flour (SWF) was substituted by cowpea flour at levels of 5, 15 and 20%. The protein content of composite breads ranged from 6.1 – 9.9%. Significant difference was observed in moisture, protein and crude fibre contents of control (wheat bread) and composite bread at 5% addition of cowpea. Water a...

Aluminum maltolate (Al-malt) causes neurodegeneration following in vivo exposure, and apoptosis plays a prominent role. The objective of this study was to define the form of cell death induced by Al-malt and to establish an in vitro model system amenable to mechanistic investigations of Al-malt-induced cell death. Neuro-2a cells, a murine neuroblastoma cell line, were treated with Al-malt for 2...

Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is a type of extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma and is a distinct subtype of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.Primary MALT lymphomas can also occur in the oral cavity, although their appearance in this location is rare. The neoplastic cells of which MALT lymphomas are composed express B-cell antigens and show monotypic immunoglobulin expression with...

BACKGROUND Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is a well-known hematologic malignancy. The gastrointestinal (GI) tract is the most commonly involved extra nodal site. MALT lymphomas are uncommon, accounting for 5% of all NHL. Gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is the prototype seen in association with Helicobacter pylori. Colonic MALT lymphoma is rare and comprises only 2.5% of th...

Cases of lymphocytic monoclonal B-cell proliferation such as non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas have been reported in chronically hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected patients. Lymphomas of the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) type are due to monoclonal proliferation of B cells showing characteristic histopathological features of MALT. Luppi et al1 recently reported an unexpectedly high prevalence of ...

_________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT Brown flour was developed by incorporating different proportions of wheat bran i.e. 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20% into the residual flour (milling by-product of pizza flour). Each treatment of brown flour, wheat bran and whole wheat flour was subjected for proximate composition and iron content. The highest iron content was obser...

This paper reports on the experimental determination of the thermal conductivities of some selected powdered food stuffs and their mixtures. The foodstuffs considered are: guinea corn flour, rice flour, maize flour, beans flour, cassava flour and yam flour. One to one mixtures of these foodstuffs were made in equal ratios to give mixtures of rice and beans flour, cassava and guinea corn flour a...
