effects of a Phellinus spp on alcohol metabolism in drunken Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. Male SD rats were given Phellinus spp extract at 30 min after 40% (5 g/kg) alcohol ingestion. To assay the effect of Phellinus spp extract on blood alcohol concentration, blood samples were taken from the tail vein at 1, 3 and 5 h after alcohol ingestion. The concentrations of alcohol, alcohol dehydrogenase, and aldehyde dehydrogenase in Phellinus spp extract…

Anorexia nervosa, a common eating disorder, mostly is triggered by personal request of losing weight or decreasing ingestion. Interestingly, historical accounts stand in direct opposition to what Malson (1998) describes as the rhetoric of anorexia as a modern disease, which is propped up by the popular discourse of thinness and the media. Furthermore, the recent and copious emergence of literature documenting historical cases of anorexia (Bemporad, 1996) may be indicative of a discursive shift…

found to have spread to nine miles. Oil spills can affect living organisms because of its chemical components are toxic .Through exposure to oil these toxic chemicals can affect organisms either when they are inhaled, through skin contact or by ingestion. In addition thick oils such as crude oil can suffocate many marine organisms. Fish may be affected either through direct contact or…

Intravenous fluid therapy would also be initiated to help increase blood pressure and cardiac output. It is also necessary to warm the patient up using warming blankets, a Bair hugger, or warmed IV fluids if available. 2. Due to the possibly of co-ingestion…

For children who are five years and below, they may have problem sleeping; at that stage, the only language they understand is one united family- seeing Mummy and Daddy together is what makes them happy.

meltdown doesn't occur, the waste the nuclear power plants produce do some damage to our enviroment. Every waste dump in the U.S. leaks radiation that can travel through the air,ground water, and agricultural consumption which can lead to human ingestion. This waste has no dispoal becasue the only way to dispose of the waste is to manage it for thousands of years until it decays. For example, uranium 235 has a half life of 703,800,000 years and these elements will remain harmful to…

Seafood is one of the most nutrient-rich food consumed all over the world, providing a prime source of high quality protein, vitamins, and minerals. However, being water-borne, this makes seafood more likely to be contaminated with pathogens, toxins, and chemical pollutants, which poses a high safety risk with their consumption. According to the 2013 Annual Surveillance Report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for Foodborne Disease Outbreaks in the United States, fish and…

In spite of ingestion of these additional commercially produced glutamates, our body metabolizes this glutamate in the same way it does with the other glutamates found naturally in foods. What that means is that our body does not distinguish between naturally occurring glutamates or the MSG found in a bottle of ketchup. Interestingly, a research report not suggests that glutamate from food or MSG is important for a normal digestive function. (Food Insight, 2009) In 1958 the FDA (U.S. Food and…

criteria for causation is explained last. [Heading 1] The route of exposure, based on Thomas Fuller (2015), will affect how the chemical’s composition will take effect in the body. Three routes of exposure include: inhalation, dermal contact, and ingestion. The chemical’s compounds, depending on its solubility and size, will affect the time it takes effect in the…
