Mercado, Patricia Denise P. BSND 3-1N Nutrition Impacts of Food Processing ¥ Many consumers rely on packaged and processed foods for convenience and speed Ð Lose control over what foods contain Ð Food processing involves trade-offs ¥ Makes food safer, or gives food a longer useable lifetime, or cuts preparation time ¥ At cost of some vitamin and mineral losses ¥ Most forms of processing aim to extend the usable life of a food Ð To preserve a food, a process must prevent three kinds of events ¥…

This paper will investigate a local brownfield site here in Broward County, reveal state and federal funding to remove the toxicity, provide a Florida based brownfield remediation case study, and propose the benefits on many different levels to carry out brownfield redevelopment. First I would like to introduce you to my site. It is the Fort Lauderdale Swap Shop off of Sunrise Blvd. and NW. 31st Ave. The site was originally created back in 1963 by Betty and Preston Henn, it was called the…

Why It Makes Sense to Go Vegan I finally decided to become a vegan. No, it’s not because I am opposed to slaughtering animals for food. And no, it is not for religious or spiritual reasons. The reason is pure and simple – for my health. After reading the book “How Not to Die” by Dr. Michael Greger [Amazon link], I became convinced that becoming a vegan is the way to better health and vitality. In his book, Dr. Greger discusses the many reasons why a plant-based diet is the path to avoiding…

The cancer is sometimes genetic, but mostly it is caused by the environment. Environmental factor in the development of cancers can be chemical, physical or biological. Chemical exposure to environmental carcinogens chemicals or substances that can lead to the development of cancer. It can occur in the workplace and in the home, as well as medical treatments, and lifestyle choices. Pollution from coal-fired power plants, auto mobile exhaust, and other sources. Burning coal is also a leading…

A small burette funnel was filled with column packing solvent at mobile phase, high boiling petroleum, in this case hexane (and then 10%acetone hexane mixture), and Alumina as stationary phase. When adding the sand and the alumina they have to be first mixed with the hexanes in order not to disturb the column. The Lycopene is Red- Orange and more attracted to alumina due to its high degree of Unsaturation, which can be expected to be eluted after Yellow-Orange Carotene pigments. And the other…

Mixed contamination of PAHs and metals occur ubiquitously in the environment, but their combined toxicity to humans and other organisms are not fully addressed. The data from epidemiological, animal and in vitro studies indicated the nature of interaction between PAHs and metals varies from synergism to additivity or antagonism. In this chapter, the combined toxicity of PAHs and metals on toxicokinetic and toxicodynamic endpoints, and possible mechanism of actions were discussed. In addition,…

The available technology points toward the use of lead/acid batteries to supply the power for ZEVs. The negative consequences associated with lead/acid batteries are numerous. For example, lead/acid batteries contain a large amount of lead. When the life of the battery is lost, the disposal of the lead within the battery must be dealt with appropriately. An analysis by researchers at Carnegie-Mellon found that the mass production of electric cars using lead/acid battery packs would exponentially…

INTRODUCTION Oral Controlled Release Drug Delivery Systems1, 2: Oral controlled release drug delivery is a drug delivery system that provides*give the continuous oral delivery of drugs at predictable and reproducible kinetics for a predetermined period throughout the course of GI transit and also the system that target the delivery of a drug to a specific region within the GI tract for either local or systemic action. All the pharmaceutical products formulated for systemic delivery via*throw…

Adipic acid is mainly use as monomer in manufacture Nylon 6/6 fiber, plasticizer, grease, polyurethane etc. There are several countries in the world that manufacturing the adipic acid. But there also countries that just is a supplier for this adipic acid to any factory that need adipic acid in their countries. The main countries that produce adipic acid are United State of America and also China. Almost ninety percent of adipic acid manufactured in United State of America is used to produce…
