Abstract Human biomonitoring data provide evidence to exposure of environmental chemicals. Physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modelling together with an adequate scenario allows transpose measured concentrations chemicals or their metabolites into levels, as daily intakes. In France, high levels urinary pyrethroids have been in populations. Our work aims at estimating the French ENNS ...

1. Energy, protein, zinc, copper, manganese, selenium and dietary fibre intakes of 100 pre-menopausal women (mean age 30.0 +/- 6.1 years) from a university community, and consuming self-selected diets, were calculated using 3 d dietary records and food composition values. Subjects also collected a 24 h food composite during the 3 d record period for analysis of Zn, Cu and Mn by atomic absorptio...

The purpose of the article was to estimate thermal power groundwater intakes Kielce district within sheets hydrogeological maps with serial numbers MHP 813-817, 850-851, and indicate in this area prospective areas for development low-temperature geothermal energy supported by water/water heat pumps. Based on calculations basis 147 intakes, it determined that estimated values resources are range...

I . The energy values of the diets of twenty-three women who were breast-feeding and thirty-two who were bottle-feeding their babies were determined by 7 d weighed surveys. All the subjects were healthy and living at home, and their babies were thriving. The lactating mothers took, on average, 591 kcal (2.5 MJ)/d more than those who were not lactating. 2. Both groups were losing weight, on aver...

Abstract United States seedstock sheep producers have selected for higher weaning and post-weaning weights using estimated breeding values approximately forty years. Despite this, little work has investigated if the increased performance inadvertently resulted in feed intakes, increasing total costs producer. Eighty range-breed ewe lambs (forty Targhee Rambouillet) were enrolled a residual inta...

Accurate assessment of nutrient adequacy of a population should be based on usual intake distribution of that population. This study was conducted to adjust usual nutrient intake distributions of a single 24-hour recall in 2001 Korean National Health and Nutrition Surveys (KNHNS) in order to determine the magnitude of limitations inherent to a single 24-hour recall in assessing nutrient intakes...

OBJECTIVE To assess the nutritional adequacy of Seychellois children in relation to nutrients reported to be important for cognitive development. DESIGN Dietary intakes were assessed by 4 d weighed food diaries and analysed using dietary analysis software (WISP version 3·0; Tinuviel Software, UK). Individual nutrient intakes were adjusted to usual intakes and, in order to investigate adequacy...

Sucrose intake was assessed for 675 Blatk and 463 White South African preschool children of ̂ T6 years, using a die­ tary questionnaire. Mean daily sucrose intakes were high­ est in White children, namely, 88 g, lower in urban Black, {62 g), and lowest in rural Black children, (52 g). Individual intakes were very variable and standard deviations were large in all groups. In rural and urban Black...

Achieving an understanding of the extent of micronutrient adequacy across Europe is a major challenge. The main objective of the present study was to collect and evaluate the prevalence of low micronutrient intakes of different European countries by comparing recent nationally representative dietary survey data from Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, The Netherlands, Poland, Spain and the Unite...
