Trichinellosis transmission to humans via the consumption of reptile meat is rare worldwide. In Korea, however, 2 such outbreaks, possibly via consumption of soft-shelled turtle meat, have occurred in 2 successive years. In 17 August 2014, 6 patients were admitted to Wonju Severance Christian Hospital complaining of myalgia, fever, and headache. Eosinophilia was the indication of the initial la...

Among the animal derived food products, contamination of poultry eggs, and egg shell surface is one major causes for foodborne salmonellosis in United States. As a means reducing pathogen transfer to internal contents, polysaccharide-based coatings containing antimicrobial phytochemicals could potentially serve as biocontrol strategy shelled products. The current study investigated efficacy fou...

Dielectric-based methods were used to determine nondestructively and simultaneously bulk density and moisture content in shelled peanuts from measurement of their relative complex permittivity at microwave frequencies (7–12 GHz) and 24 C. The first method is based on direct relationships between the two components of the relative complex permittivity (dielectric constant and dielectric loss fac...

The anthropogenic input of fossil fuel carbon into the atmosphere results in increased carbon dioxide (CO(2)) into the oceans, a process that lowers seawater pH, decreases alkalinity and can inhibit the production of shell material. Corrosive water has recently been documented in the northeast Pacific, along with a rapid decline in seawater pH over the past decade. A lack of instrumentation pri...

This study compared the cholesterol levels and shell pigments (protoporphyrin biliverdin) of chicken (conventional organic), quail, pheasant, goose eggs. The material for was (organic system - Lohmann Brown conventional HyLine Brown) eggs, quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica), (local), pheasant (Phasianus colchicus) eggs homogeneously selected with a subjective scoring. High-performance liquid ch...

The resulting interfacial stress in heteroepitaxial nanocomplex usually has negligible influence on its performance, but at high pressures (HP) the effect can be significantly amplified. In order to unravel underlying mechanism and search for quality pressure sensors, a simple object is employed, NaErF4@NaLnF4 (Ln = Y, Lu, Gd) Tm3+-doped derivatives, comparatively study of upconversion (UC) lum...

Abstract Select varieties with high yields and adaptive to the environment are one way increase corn productivity. The study aimed determine adaptability of growth yield characteristics superior national hybrid maize shade stress. was carried out in a community forest area, Kalices Village, Kendal Regency, from March-September 2020. designed using split-split plot randomized block design treatm...

Nautilus is often used as an analogue for the ecology and behavior of extinct externally shelled cephalopods. Nautilus shell grows quickly, has internal growth banding, and is widely believed to precipitate aragonite in oxygen isotope equilibrium with seawater. Pieces of shell from a wild-caught Nautilus macromphalus from New Caledonia and from a Nautilus belauensis reared in an aquarium were c...

Natural inorganic/organic nanohybrids are a fascinating model in biomaterials design due to their ultra-microstructure and extraordinary properties. Here, we report unique-structured through self-assembly of biomedical nanounits, composed bioactive inorganic nanoparticle core (hydroxyapatite, glass, or mesoporous silica) chitosan shell - namely [email protected] The thin-shelled with could cons...

This study evaluated the effect of coarse or fine grinding of three forms of corn on the performance of lactating cows. Six diets, fed as total mixed rations, were identical except for the corn portion of the diet. Corn treatments were dry shelled corn, high moisture ensiled ear corn, and high moisture ensiled shelled corn, either coarsely or finely ground. The experimental design was a 6 x 6 L...
