This cross-sectional study investigated the prevalence of respiratory symptoms and sensitization to dust components in 224 individuals in 18 small bakeries in Scotland. Each work practice in the bakeries was characterized by an assessment of dust exposure and assigned to a category with either a direct exposure to flour dust of an indirect exposure to flour dust. We found that work-related resp...

this study examined suitable mechanized methods to seed rice in dry-bed conditions using dried seeds and determined the most suitable varieties for each method. the experimental design was strip-plots in a randomized complete block design with two factors (seeding methods and rice varieties) and three replications. the testing took place during 2003-2004 at the shavour agricultural research sta...

As part of an epidemiological study among workers exposed to flour total dust and flour aeroallergen concentrations were measured with personal samplers over a workshift in three large bakeries and four flour mills and packing stations. In the bakeries geometric means for total dust concentrations ranged from 0.4 mg/m3 in the bread wrapping area up to 6.4 mg/m3 at the dough brake. The flour aer...

Previous studies on the relationship of local food environment with residents' diets have relied exclusively on self-reported information on diet, producing inconsistent results. Evaluation of dietary intake using biomarkers may obviate the biases inherent to the use of self-reported dietary information. This cross-sectional study examined the association between neighbourhood food store availa...

Marine fisheries provide livelihood and nutritional security to the fishermen households in coastal states of our country Ramanathapuram district is an important Tamil Nadu terms marine fish landings as well raft-gears employed. The analysis economic performance fishing methods very for formulating any management measure. Hence, study on was carried out. In mechanized, motorized non-mechanized ...

In this paper, we show how a system for automated deduction can be given computational reeection, i.e. can aaect its own computation mechanism, by using the very same machinery implementing logical deduction. This feature, that we call computational reeection via mechanized logical deduction, provides both theoretical and practical advantages. First, the theorem prover can inspect, extend and m...

Background: Today some bakeries for artificially production of bread in order to production process expedition and compensating defects that created by unnatural fermentation and as well as undesirable quality of flour. For cover superficial defects of bread use of harmful chemical material such as soda, that can cause health problems. The aim of this study is determination of soda and salt amo...
