The residual AFB1 was quantified by standard methods to find the efficiency of different treatments in degrading AFB1. Amongst the selected physical methods, direct oven heating at 120°C for 12 hours produced maximum (83.32%) AFB1 degradation and UV exposure for 60 min produced 59.62% AFB1 degradation. The chemical treatments had no significant effect on AFB1 degradation in chilli powder with maximum % degradation (58.32) found only by oxidation with H2O2. The biological detoxification of 66.2% was achieved by treating spiked chilli powder with 12 IU of partially purified peroxidase (POD) isolated from garlic having specific activity of 246 mg−1 protein for 26 hours. The physical methods were more efficient over other methods in degrading AFB1, but producedsignificant nutritional losses (p ≤ 0.05). The ascorbic acid and carotenoids were most sensitive quality attribute affected by the treatments. The enzymatic treatment produced minimal quality changes in the treated sample.","PeriodicalId":14113,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Food Safety, Nutrition and Public Health","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83975849","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Households with DDS ≤ 4 (n = 267) and DDS > 4 (n = 232) were compared using analysis of variance and χ²-test. Spearman correlation analysis was done for HFIAS and DDS. Compared to households with a DDS > 4, households with a DDS ≤ 4 had fewer assets, experienced more food shortages and had a higher HFIAS (16.0, 95% confidence interval (CI) 15.0-17.0 vs. 9.8, 95% CI 8.8-10.9). An inverse correlation between HFIAS and dietary diversity (r = −0.450; p < 0.01) was observed.

Forty-one patients participated in an in depth interview. Common themes were drawn upon and reported. The understanding of the causation of diabetes varied, including genetics, stress and lifestyle. Most participants linked diabetes to lifestyle factors such as diet, lack of physical activity and obesity. These were, in turn, specifically linked to environmental aspects as well as the cultural framework. Cultural and contextual factors may hinder the implementation of behaviour change. With the understanding of these constraints, the necessity of developing creative strategies becomes evident. Suggestions are provided to enhance diabetes education, prevention and health promotion building upon the strengths within this unique cultural context.","PeriodicalId":14113,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Food Safety, Nutrition and Public Health","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79108166","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Characteristic species-specific bands of (1,661 and 1,268 bp) in buffalo and (1,201 and 407 bp) in pig were obtained by amplification of primer B13. These bands were not present in any of the other meat species used in present investigation.

Changes in the activity of Δ6-desaturase affect the cellular provision of long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and therefore factors that influence this enzyme are considered relevant to disease processes. This study investigated the effects of social isolation stress and cholesterol supplementation in a rodent model using two methods to estimate Δ6-desaturase activity, namely, a direct method measuring liver microsomal Δ6-desaturase activity and an indirect method measuring product?precursor ratio from tissue fatty acid compositions. Liver Δ6-desaturase activity was significantly decreased by isolation (-14%) and increased by cholesterol feeding (+9%). Liver microsomal phospholipid fatty acid composition and the associated product?precursor ratios for Δ6-desaturase did not relate to the changes observed in Δ6 desaturase activity. These results indicate that tissue fatty acid compositions should be viewed with caution in terms of their appropriateness as a surrogate for measuring Δ6-desaturase activity.","PeriodicalId":14113,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Food Safety, Nutrition and Public Health","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79244300","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The MeS has not been widely studied among the Arab populations, but the data available suggests that it is an increasingly common problem. Prevalence of MeS and its associated components are not available in Qatar. To estimate the prevalence of MeS and its associated components among the Qatari population and to determine its associated risk factors, a cross-sectional study was carried out among Qatari adults aged 20 years and above. Face to face interviewing using a structured questionnaire followed by laboratory tests were conducted. MeS was defined using the Adult Treatment Panel III (ATP III) criteria as well as the International Diabetes Federation criteria (IDF). The crude prevalence rate of MeS according to ATP III criteria and IDF criteria were 26.4 and 34.0%, respectively. The age-standardised prevalence of the MeS according to ATP III was 27.7% (95% CI 23.3?32.0%), (23.6% among men (95% CI 19.5?27.7%) and 32.6% among women (95% CI 28.0?37.2%)) and according to IDF criteria, the age standardised prevalence was 35.4% (95% CI 30.7?40.0%), 38.7% (95% CI 34.0?43.5%) for women and 35.8% (95% CI 31.2?40.5%) for men. Age, Body Mass Index and HbA1c were significantly associated with MeS after adjustment for a number relevant variables including; gender, marital status, educational level, exercise, smoking, etc. Prevalence of the MeS in Qatar is considerably higher than anticipated. A well-designed health education programmes to increase the awareness of the public as well as healthcare providers are highly recommended.
