Does the addition of caseinophosphopeptides or milk improve zinc in vitro bioavailability in fruit beverages?
2009
Abstract The influence of caseinophosphopeptides (CPPs) added to fruit beverage versus milk based fruit beverage upon zinc retention, transport, and uptake, as well as the influence of Fe supplementation, were studied using a combined simulated gastrointestinal digestion/Caco-2 cell system. Zinc retention, transport, and uptake of milk based fruit beverage was 4- to 5-fold greater than that of fruit beverages with or without CPPs – no statistically significant differences being observed in relation to the presence or absence of CPPs. Possibly, a slow release of CPPs throughout the digestive tract, as can be expected to take place during the digestion of casein, has a more beneficial effect …
PEM Fuel Cell System Model Predictive Control and real-time operation on a power emulator
2010
Fuel Cell Systems (FCS) seem to be among the most reliable devices to produce clean energy, although they still suffer for many problems, mostly related to the fragility of the Polymer Electrolyte Membrane (PEM). Particularly, this paper focuses on the oxygen starvation, that leads both a decrease of the FCS performance and a shortening in the FCS lifetime. The purpose is to use the Model Predictive Control (MPC) and its capacity of accounting for linear constraints for managing the air system without risking to damage the fuel cell. Two control inputs and no static feed-forward actions have been used. Results show that the MPC is able to avoid the oxygen starvation, even with a sudden incr…
Od systemu celkowego do systemu dozoru elektronicznego. Zmiany w sposobie wykonywania kary pozbawienia wolności
2020
The evolution of the methods for execution of the custodial penalty demonstrates changes in the treatment of convicts. In the historically oldest systems, the aspect of subjectivity of convicts was completely omitted in favour of their complete isolation (objectification), which resulted in the lack of corrective effects. It was only later that the system of progression in its various forms was adopted, which allowed strengthening of the convicts’ position by appreciation of their work and education as well as gradual mitigation of the effects of prison isolation. Finally, the concept of executing a penalty outside the prison in the electronic surveillance system was adopted, which departed…
Addition of milk or caseinophosphopeptides to fruit beverages to improve iron bioavailability?
2010
Abstract A study has been made of the influence of caseinophosphopeptides (CPPs) added to a fruit beverage versus milk based fruit beverages upon iron retention, transport and uptake, using a combined simulated gastrointestinal digestion/Caco-2 cell system. Grape concentrate, orange concentrate, and apricot puree were used for sample formulation. Eight samples were assayed with/without added Fe sulphate (3 mg/100 ml fruit beverage) and/or added Zn sulphate (1.6 mg/100 ml fruit beverage), with/without skimmed milk (11% v/v). The addition of milk to fruit beverages exerted a positive effect on iron retention, transport and uptake versus fruit beverages, and this effect was greater than that o…
