The scientific debate has been reignited globally, emphasising the importance of food banks. Although there are comprehensive studies on banks, effort to conduct a systematic literature review (SLR) this particular research issue challenging since it fails include procedures, making difficult for scholars replicate or interpret. This aims existing about bank distribution efficiency via smart mo...

The concentration and composition of suspended particulate food available to estuarine suspension-feeding bivalve molluscs varies temporarily and spatially. Non-algal food sources may be important to suspension-feeders when algal concentrations are seasonally low or where there are high concentrations of suspended detrital material and bacteria, as found withln marshes. We carried out a series ...

Feeding efficiency (amount of food ingested per unit of feeding activity) was chronically depressed in male Sprague-Dawley rats recovered from the acute aphagia or hypophagia of lateral hypothalamic damage. The extent of depression varied with the severity of the acute feeding response to hypothalamic damage. Growth of Walker 256 carcinosarcoma in intact rats increased feeding efficiency. Chron...

background:the present study designed to test  effects of defatted soy-fortified wheat bread on the organoleptic properties as well as influences on rat growth rate. methods: defatted soy flour (dsf) was blended with wheat flour with extraction rate of 82-84% at 3, 7, and 7% levels plus 3% sugar. bread produced with these blends compared with regular taftoon bread and was tested for chemical an...

In December 2001, the United States Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a Texas district court decision blocking the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) from closing a beef processing plant that had failed a series of Salmonella tests. This court ruling is the latest development in the evolution of food safety policy for meats and poultry. Over the last decade, the federal government has ad...

We suggested a new model of the effects of glucocorticoids (GCs) exerted during chronic stress, in which GCs directly stimulate activities in brain while indirectly inhibiting activity in the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis through their metabolic shifts in energy stores in the periphery. This study is an initial test of our model. In a 2 X 2 design, we provided ad lib access to calorically ...

Protein-energy malnutrition is increasing among children in developing countries due to low nutrient density of traditional complementary diets. Therefore, this study aimed at determining the protein quality of a complementary food produced from cooking banana fruits and bambara groundnut seeds. The cooking banana and bambara groundnut seeds are locally available in both urban and villages mark...

mulberry pyralid, glyphodes pyloalis walker is an important pest on mulberry. the essential oil of rosemary rosemarinus officinalis l. (lamiales: lamiaceae) has been investigated on toxicity and physiological characteristics of this moth under controlled conditions. the major compounds of the oil were analyzed as 1, 8 cineol (20.021%), borneol (7.17%), camphor (6.541%), geraniol (6.281%), camph...

The environmental sustainability (ES) of food systems is a critical challenge for policy makers. This is a highly contested policy area with differing views among stakeholders. The aim of the study was to develop a better understanding of how ES considerations are addressed in Australian food and nutrition policies and the way that consultation processes affect final policy outcomes. A mixed-me...
