  2. 11. Phosphorus to horses and cows

    Author : Gunilla Ögren; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : It is important from a nutritional perspective to meet the phosphorus (P) requirements of animals. From an environmental perspective however, it is important not to feed more P than necessary, because excessive P will mainly be excreted with feces, and the soluble P fraction is vulnerable to runoff losses and may contribute to eutrophication.

  4. 12. Harnessing the potential of green leaves : agricultural biomass as a source of sustainable food protein

    Author : Anna-Lovisa Nynäs; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Demand for sustainable protein-rich food sources is currently increasing to meet the nutritional requirements of a growing population, while also considering climate challenges. Green leafy biomass (GLBM), in the form of side-streams and main crops, is a widely available protein source with potential food value. Extended use of GLBM, e.g. READ MORE

  5. 13. When the paediatric heart is affected : impact on nutrition, growth and body composition from infancy to adolescence

    Author : Lena Hansson; Annika Rydberg; Inger Öhlund; Torbjörn Lind; Tanis Fenton; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : Congenital heart disease; Patent ductus arteriosus; Preterm infant; Infant growth; Energy intake; Dietary fatty acid; Micronutrient intake; Vitamin D; Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry DXA ; Fontan circulation.; pediatrik; Pediatrics; Food and Nutrition; kostvetenskap; kardiologi; Cardiology;

    Abstract : BackgroundChildren with complex congenital heart disease (CHD) and very low birth weight (VLBW) infants with a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) are two distinct groups of patients with different clinical care needs. Irrespective of the type of heart condition, nutritional intake and growth is largely affected in these individuals during infancy. READ MORE

  6. 14. Hydrogen Production by Caldicellulosiruptor species: The Organism and the Metabolism

    Author : Ahmad Zeidan; Teknisk mikrobiologi; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Extreme thermophile; Caldicellulosiruptor; Biohydrogen; Co-culture; Coexistence; Hydrogen tolerance; Genome-scale reconstruction; In silico; Flux balance analysis;

    Abstract : Hydrogen holds a great promise as an efficient and clean future energy carrier due to its high energy density and lack of pollutant generation. Anaerobic degradation of organic substrates by heterotrophic microorganisms enables the production of hydrogen from a wide spectrum of agricultural feedstock and waste products. READ MORE

  7. 15. Provitamin A Carotenoids in Orange-Fleshed Sweet Potato

    Author : Anton Bengtsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; orange-fleshed sweet potato; food processing; high-performance liquid chromatography; β-carotene; β-carotene uptake; Caco-2 cells; provitamin A carotenoids; vitamin A deficiency; iron;

    Abstract : Vitamin A deficiency is a major nutritional disorder in a large number of developing countries. The disorder is mainly caused by an inadequate intake of preformed vitamin A and provitamin A carotenoids from the diet. It is also recognized that vitamin A deficiency and iron deficiency tend to coexist in many population groups. READ MORE
