BACKGROUND Micronutrient deficiencies can compromise the development potential of school-aged children, and their later health and productivity as adults. School feeding and school-based fortification approaches have been utilized globally to redress nutritional deficiencies in this age group. OBJECTIVE We explored the acceptability and micronutrient impact of a Bangladesh Government supporte...

in a steam power plant, the temperature of the cooling water leaving the condenser for recyclingshould decrease. this is achieved in a cooling tower. the heller cooling tower does not require waterfor operation, thus, it is a suitable system for use in thermal power plants throughout iran. wind is anenvironmental factor that unfavorably affects the performance of a cooling tower. previous studi...

Physical properties, chemical composition, minerals content, amino acids profile and anti-nutritional factors i.e. phytic acid, tannins trypsin inhibitor of lima bean seeds (Phaseolus lunatus) which newly cultivated in Egypt were investigated. Addition to study the effect common processing methods (soaking, cooking, roasting, dehulling) on content order be used biscuit preparation. Results show...

We synthesized Al-containing acidic and basic (alkaline) sodium aluminum phosphates (SALPs) which are FDAapproved leavening and emulsifying agents, respectively, and used them to determine the oral bioavailability of aluminum incorporated in selected foods. We selected applicable methods from published syntheses (patents) and scaled them down ( 3000and 850-fold) to prepare 300–400 mg of each SA...

Undernutrition is common among tuberculosis (TB) patients. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of multi-micronutrient supplementation during TB treatment on weight, body composition, and handgrip strength. A total of 865 patients with smear-positive (PTB+) or -negative (PTB-) pulmonary TB were randomly allocated to receive a daily biscuit with or without multi-micronutrients fo...

a thermodynamic analysis of the counter flow wet cooling tower (cwct) in the steelmaking unit of the khuzestan steel company (ksc) is performed in this paper. we evaluated both energy and exergy formulations for analyzing the heat and mass transfer, exergy and second-law efficiency in this cooling tower. the lewis factor le f is an indication of the relative rates of heat and mass transfer in a...

heating and sudden cooling are among the most important processes affecting temper quality in the production period of tempered auto glass. in this study, heat transfer characteristics and cooling times during the sudden cooling process of tempered glass production have been experimentally investigated. flat glass with dimensions of 50x50x4 mm has been heated up to 680 ºc in the furnace and was...
