Assessment of Dietary Intake of Manganese in Relation to Tolerable Upper Intake Level

2019

The Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food and Environment (Vitenskapskomiteen for mat og miljø, VKM) has, at the request of the Norwegian Food Safety Authority (Mattilsynet; NFSA), evaluated the intake of manganese from the diet and 1, 5 or 10 mg manganese per day in food supplements. The former maximum limit for manganese in food supplements was 5 mg per daily dose. 
 Manganese (Mn) is an essential dietary mineral for mammals, and is a component of metalloenzymes such as superoxide dismutase, arginase and pyruvate carboxylase. Manganese is involved in amino acid-, lipid- and carbohydrate metabolism and in proteoglycan synthesis in bone formation. In 2013, the European Food Safety Au…

Determination of low-molecular-mass aliphatic carboxylic acids and inorganic anions from kraft black liquors by ion chromatography.

2007

An ion chromatographic (IC) method with suppressed conductivity detection (CD) was developed and validated for the quantitative determination of several low-molecular-mass aliphatic mono- and dicarboxylic acids as their carboxylate anions together with some inorganic anions (chloride, sulfate, and thiosulfate) from kraft black liquors. To confirm the identification of some carboxylate anions which lack commercial model substances, a qualitative IC method with suppressed electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) was also developed. The separations were performed on an IonPac AS 11-HC anion-exchange column operated at 25 degrees C within 25 min by a gradient elution with aqueous pota…

Skinfold Sum: Reference Values for Top Athletes

2012

Las determinaciones de los pliegues subcutaneos de diferentes zonas corporales son utilizadas ocasionalmente en ecuaciones predictivas para calcular la masa grasa. Este es un parametro critico que condiciona el optimo rendimiento deportivo. No existen valores de referencia de pliegues subcutaneos en atletas de elite. Por tanto, el principal objetivo de este estudio es presentar valores de referencia de pliegues subcutaneos de una amplia poblacion de atletas. Los pliegues tricipital, subescapular, suprailiaco, abdominal, muslo y pierna fueron medidos de acuerdo a la normativa ISAK (Sociedad Internacional para el Avance de la Cineantropometria) en 2500 atletas. La suma de los seis pliegues as…

ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis and Antifungal Activity of New N-Isoxazolyl-2-iodobenzamides.

2010

N-Isoxazolyl-2-iodobenzamides 3 and 9, with a benodanil-like structure, were synthesized by refluxing in acetic acid the corresponding benzotriazinones 2 and 8 with potassium iodide for 1 h with the aim to ascertain if they were active as fungicides against Phytophthora citricola Saw., Botrytis cinerea Pers., Rhizoctonia sp. and Alternaria sp. Among the tested iodo derivatives, compounds 3b and 9a possess interesting activities against the aforesaid fungal strains in several cases similar to that of benodanil I taken as reference drug.

C4 Alpha-Chain Reference Typing Report

1990

Previously it was shown that C4A and C4B alpha-chains after separation on SDS-PAGE can provide valuable information on presence and absence, as well as the number of C4A and C4B genes expressed in an individual. All samples submitted for C4 reference typing were also subjected to C4 alpha-chain separation; the results were included in the Final C4 Reference Typing List [Complement Inflamm 1990;7:193-212]. In addition, in selected cases with assumed 'reversed antigenicity', Western blots of C4 alpha-chains with monoclonal anti-C4A and B antibodies were obtained. As a result, subtypic differences of C4B allotypes were detected by the comparison of monoclonal antibodies 1217 and 1228.

Aceites esenciales: productos antimicrobianos y antioxidantes naturales en la industria agroalimentaria

2020

[ES] Los consumidores son conscientes del peligro derivado del uso de antioxidantes y antimicrobianos sintéticos en la industria agroalimentaria, demandando alternativas más seguras y ecológicas. En este estudio, se ha determinado la actividad antioxidante de aceites esenciales comerciales mediante el método DPPH y su efecto antimicrobiano frente a la bacteria Pseudomonas syringae y el hongo fitopatógeno Fusarium oxysporum a través del empleo del método estandarizado de disco. Los aceites esenciales de clavo, ajedrea, canela y orégano, así como carvacrol, mostraron la máxima actividad antioxidante, comparable a antioxidantes establecidos. El aceite esencial de gaulteria fue el más potente i…

Meet–Test–Treat for HCV management: patients’ and clinicians’ preferences in hospital and drug addiction services in Italy

2022

Abstract Background It has been estimated that the incidence of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) will not decline over the next 10 years despite the improved efficacy of antiviral therapy because most patients remain undiagnosed and/or untreated. This study aimed to investigate the opinion of relevant target populations on the practicability, effectiveness and best modalities of the test-and-treat approach in the fight against HCV in Italy. Methods A survey was delivered to patients with HCV from the general population, patients from drug addiction services, hospital physicians and healthcare providers for drug addiction services. Results For both hospital clinicians and SerD HCPs, tolerabil…
