Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNephrocalcinosis in Female Rats Fed Diets Containing Either Pectin, Galacturonic Acid or GlucoseH.E. Mohamed, A. Alhaidary, A.C. BeynenProblem statement: In our earlier study, dietary pectin has been shown to promote nephrocalcinosis in rats when compared with the feeding of cellulose. It was not known whether this pectin effect relates to its structure or to its monosaccharide component, galacturonic acid. Approach: The effects of dietary pectin, galacturonic acid and glucose on kidney calcification were studied in female rats. … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 14,717 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAn Experimental Investigation on Performance of CI Engine Using Diesel, Esterified Cotton Seed Oil and Diethyl Carbonate as AdditiveVikram G. Kamble, Samson Paul PintoIn this study, Cotton seed oil ethyl ester was produced by transesterification process. The performance of diesel engine was experimentally investigated by using cotton seed oil ethyl ester as fuel. For the study cotton seed oil ethyl ester was mixed with diesel fuel and B20 blend was prepared. Also Diethyl Carbonate was added as an additive in 4, 8 and … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 16 Dec 2015 · 7,445 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDietary Fats and Heart Disease: From Prenatal to Postnatal EnvironmentSukhinder K. CheemaProblem statement: Heart disease is the leading cause of death worldwide and is dramatically increasing in developing countries.

Besides healthy nutrition in the adult life, maternal nutrition during pregnancy and lactation can also have a significant impact on the outcome … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 10 Aug 2012 · 7,433 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDietary Lysine: Calorie Ratios and Their Influence on Nitrogen Metabolism and Digestibility in Moderately Obese Mature DogsTrista Reeder, Greg Hibbard, Kyle R. McLeod, David L. HarmonProblem statement: A goal during weight loss is to reduce body fat while maintaining body protein. We hypothesized that an increased dietary lysine: calorie might be beneficial during periods of caloric restriction. Approach: Two experiments were conducted to determine if changing the ratio of lysine: calories (lysine g/kg: Mcal ME/kg) while maintaining an ideal profile of amino acids will change … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 27 Apr 2011 · 8,064 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCharacterization of Epoxidized and Non-Epoxidized Fatty Diethanolamides by High Performance Liquid Chromatography and Gas ChromatographyChoy Sin Lee, Song Cang LeeProblem statement: This study was carried out for the characterization of epoxidized and non-epoxidized fatty diethanolamides by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Gas Chromatography (GC). Approach: The fatty diethanolamides were synthesized by reacting 40% (w/w) of Epoxidized Palm Olein (EPOo) with 60% (w/w) Refined Bleached Deodorized Plam Kernel Olein (RBDPKOo) with Diethanolamine (DEA) at 110°C for 5 h. Results: … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,449 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effect of Reaction Temperature on Retaining Oxirane Oxygen Contents in the Synthesis of Epoxidized DiethanolamidesC. S. Lee, T. L. Ooi, C. H. ChuahEpoxidized diethanolamides were synthesized by reacting diethanolamine (DEA) with mixture of Epoxidized Palm Olein (EPOo ,40% w/w) and Refined Bleached Deodorized Palm Kernel Olein (RBDPKOo , 60% w/w) at 1:3 molar at 80°C for 5 h and continued at 110°C for another 4 h of reaction time. Synthesized diethanolamides with high content of epoxides were reacted with isocyanate in the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,372 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDietary Intake of Selected Common Vegetable Foods and their Total Carotenoids DeterminationJafar Muhammad EL-QudahProblem Statement: Vitamin A Deficiency (VAD) remains widespread in many countries including Jordan, mainly due to inadequate dietary intake of vitamin A and carotenoids. Approach: Few researches on carotenoid content in vegetables and fruits are carried out. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the dietary intake of selected common foods among a sample of adult Jordanians, by … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 8,115 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDietary Beta-1,3/1,6-Glucans Reduce Clinical Signs of Canine AtopyA. C. Beynen, D. H.J. Saris, P. M. Paap et al.Problem statement: There was evidence that beta-1,3/1,6-glucans modulate inflammatory activity. In an open, non-controlled trial, purified beta-1,3/1,6-glucans were found to improve the clinical signs of dogs with undefined chronic skin disorders. Given the design of that study, further work was required on the efficacy of beta-1,3/1,6-glucans in the treatment of canine atopy. Approach: The influence of a purified preparation of … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 9 Jan 2012 · 9,979 accessesView PDFCite
